This will walk you through installing HuskSync on your network of Spigot or Fabric servers. Please check your server's [[Compatibility]] and download the correct version of HuskSync for your server.
## Requirements
HuskSync requires a Database server, a Redis server, and any number of compatible Minecraft servers:
* Any number of [compatible Fabric or Spigot/Paper-based](Compatibility) servers
* Each server must be running the same exact version of Minecraft
* It is not possible to sync data between a mixture of Fabric and Spigot servers
* HuskSync should not be installed on your Velocity, BungeeCord, or Waterfall proxy
* A [[Database]] server running MySQL v8.0+, MariaDB v5.0+, PostgreSQL or MongoDB
* A [[Redis]] server running Redis v5.0+
## Setup Instructions
Before you begin, switch off all servers on your network. It is recommended that you also take a backup.
### 1. Install the jar
- Place the plugin jar file in the `/plugins/` or `/mods/` directory of each Spigot/Fabric server respectively.
- You do not need to install HuskSync as a proxy plugin.
- _Spigot users_: You can additionally install [ProtocolLib](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/protocollib.1997/) or [PacketEvents](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/packetevents-api.80279/) for better locked user handling.
- _Fabric users_: Ensure the latest Fabric API mod jar is installed!
### 2. Restart servers
- Start, then stop every server to let HuskSync generate the [[config file]].
- HuskSync will throw an error in the console and disable itself as it is unable to connect to the database. You haven't set the credentials yet, so this is expected.
### 3. Enter Database & Redis server credentials
- Navigate to the new config file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/config.yml` on Spigot, `~/config/husksync/config.yml` on Fabric)
- Under `credentials` in the [`database`](Database) section, enter your database credentials. If you're using a Mongo database, [follow the instructions](database#mongodb-setup) here. You shouldn't need to modify the `connection_pool` properties.
- Under `credentials` in the [`redis`](Redis) section, enter the credentials of your Redis server. If your Redis server doesn't have a password, leave the password blank as it is.
- Unless you want to have multiple clusters of servers within your network, each with separate user data, you should not change the value of `cluster_id`.

<summary>MongoDB users &mdash; additional instructions</summary>
- Navigate to the HuskSync config file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/config.yml`)
- Set `type` in the `database` section to `MONGO`
- Under `credentials` in the `database` section, enter the credentials of your MongoDB Database. You shouldn't touch the `connection_pool` properties.
- Under `parameters` in the `mongo_settings` section, ensure the specified `&authSource=` matches the database you are using (default is `HuskSync`).
#### Additional setup for MongoDB Atlas
- Set `using_atlas` in the `mongo_settings` section to `true`.
- Remove `&authSource=HuskSync` from `parameters` in the `mongo_settings`.
(The `port` setting in `credentials` is disregarded when using Atlas.)
</details>
### 4. Set server names in server.yml files
- Navigate to the server name file on each server (`~/plugins/HuskSync/server.yml` on Spigot, `~/config/husksync/server.yml` on Fabric)
- Set the `name:` of the server in this file to the ID of this server as defined in the config of your proxy (e.g., if this is the "hub" server you access with `/server hub`, put `'hub'` here)
### 5. Start every server again
- Provided your MySQL and Redis credentials were correct, synchronization should begin as soon as you start your servers again.
- If you need to import data from HuskSync v1.x or MySQLPlayerDataBridge, please see the guides below:

- [[MPDB Migration]]
