Server Unpacker

by Sindercube

Server Unpacker lets a player pull the files out of a server's resource pack so they can be inspected on the local client.

What it does

Server Unpacker is a client-side Fabric utility that extracts the resource pack files a server loads into the game. Players drag a pack file onto its window or onto the mods folder, and the extracted files are written to the extracted-packs folder inside the game directory. Multiple files can also be processed from the command line by running the bundled jar with java -jar. The code is licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Server pack extraction

    Resource pack files loaded from a server are unpacked to a local folder so their contents can be read.

  2. Drag and drop window

    A small GUI accepts one or more dropped pack files and extracts them into the same directory.

  3. Command line use

    Several files can be extracted at once by launching the jar from a terminal with java -jar.
