Implement game launcher with crash analysis and backup improvements#6
Conversation
Implements a complete launch-from-MCED feature allowing users to start Minecraft directly without switching to their launcher. Key changes: - New LaunchService.ts: direct Java launch with per-launcher support (Modrinth, Prism/MultiMC, CurseForge, vanilla fallback) - Auth tokens read from launcher storage (Prism accounts.json, Modrinth app.db, vanilla launcher_accounts.json); offline fallback - Java detection: launcher-bundled → JAVA_HOME → PATH → common paths - Version JSON + classpath resolution per launcher type - Cross-platform classpath separator fix (: on Linux/Mac, ; on Windows) - 4 IPC handlers: game:launch, game:kill, game:isRunning, game:getRunning - Preload API: launchGame, killGame, isGameRunning, getRunningGames - Header.tsx: Play/Stop button with 3s running-state poll - App.tsx landing page: Play button overlay on recent instance cards - LandingPage.tsx: onLaunchInstance prop + Play button overlay https://claude.ai/code/session_01G1cMMQeJbAj2BYdK1pP8LC
- Stream stdout/stderr from the Minecraft process to the renderer via IPC (LaunchService emits 'log' events → mainWindow.webContents.send) - Add onGameLog / removeGameLogListener to preload contextBridge API - New GameConsole component: scrollable log view with color-coded stdout (green), stderr (red), system (yellow) lines, timestamps, clear + download actions, auto-scroll with manual override - Header: ℹ info icon next to Play button shows tooltip warning that the instance must be launched in the original launcher at least once before using MCED launch (with offline-fallback note) - Header: Terminal button appears once game output arrives, opens the GameConsole modal https://claude.ai/code/session_01G1cMMQeJbAj2BYdK1pP8LC
## Backup System (ZIP-based) - backup:create now zips config/, kubejs/ and defaultconfigs/ with proper folder structure so restores work correctly and KubeJS scripts no longer appear as loose files in the backup dir - backup:restore extracts to instance root so all folders are restored - Added missing backup:rename IPC handler ## Game Launcher - JVM heap memory (max/min) is now configurable in Settings (Game Launch section) - Added jvmMaxMemory/jvmMinMemory to settingsStore (defaults: 4096/1024 MB) - LaunchService, IPC handler and preload all updated to pass -Xmx/-Xms from settings ## UI/UX - Sidebar collapse button: click the chevron on the sidebar edge to collapse/expand the mod list - SmartSearch filter pills: filter results by type (boolean/integer/float/string/enum/array) or "Changed only" - "Recently Changed" widget on landing page shows last 5 modified settings with mod name ## Config Editor - Reset to Defaults button: resets all settings in current config to their defaultValue - Presets: save/load named config presets via localStorage, accessible from toolbar dropdown ## New Format Support - HOCON parser added (HoconParser.ts) for .conf files used by older Forge mods - ConfigService.ts updated to detect .conf files as cfg format ## Mod Update Checker - UpdateCheckerService checks Modrinth for newer mod versions in the background after instance loads - updateStore (Zustand) caches results; update badges appear in ModListItem ## Crash Log Analyzer - New CrashAnalyzer.tsx component: drag & drop crash log .txt/.log - IPC handler crash:analyze extracts main cause, error patterns and mentioned mod IDs - Button in Header to open analyzer ## Modpack Export (.mrpack) - IPC handler export:modpack creates mrpack ZIP with modrinth.index.json manifest + config/ and kubejs/ as overrides - Export button in Header with prompt for pack name https://claude.ai/code/session_01G1cMMQeJbAj2BYdK1pP8LC
