ignite HTTP
Ignite HTTP lets a server host web pages and files over HTTP, with server statistics and API endpoints served from the server itself.
What it does
Once the mod is installed on a Fabric server, it starts a simple HTTP service. Files placed in the config folder can be served as a website, and a file named index.html becomes the front page. Because the mod reads files as they are requested, edits made to a page or to a resource pack while the server runs show up without a restart.
Server statistics and API endpoints are exposed through the same service, so a server owner can check the server from a browser or pass its data to another tool. The mod is a Fabric mod for the server side and needs nothing on the player's client.
Ignite HTTP is published for Fabric only, for 1.0 – 1.21 across 87 release versions, with 1.0.1 for 1.21 as the latest file. The code is not open source; the author holds all rights, though public links to the source and issue tracker exist. The mod is listed under Management and Social.
Key features
Dynamic file hosting
Files in the config folder are served over HTTP and re-read on each request, so changes apply at once.
API endpoints
Endpoints let other programs query the server over HTTP instead of reading its files directly.
Index page setup
Creating a file named index.html in the hosted folder gives the server a home page without extra configuration.

Use cases
Hosting a resource pack
A server can host a resource pack as files, and edits made while the server runs take effect without a restart.
A status page
Server owners can build a page that shows server statistics for players or staff to view in a browser.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want to publish a small web page or expose server data over HTTP, and who are comfortable writing HTML for the page themselves.
How it compares
QueryInfo is client-side only, open source under the Apache License 2.0, and published for 1.21.1, so it reads from the player's game rather than serving pages from a server. Watchpup is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and published for 1.21.4, a different version than this mod's latest file. ClientboundChatManager is client-side only, is not open source, and covers 1.19 – 1.19.4.

To get started with Ignite, first start your server with the mod installed. Then, in the config folder open "ignite". Create a new file called "index.html". From there you will need to create an HTML page for your server. You can also use this mod to host resource packs. Note: This tool reads files dynamically…
