Core Keeper uses mod.io for mods. You can download mods manually and upload them via SFTP.

Set up mod.io

  1. Create mod.io account
    Create an account on mod.io or log in.

  2. Create API Key
    Go to mod.io/me/access and create an API Key. Copy the key and the API URL (e.g. https://u-*.modapi.io/v1).

  3. Create OAuth Token
    Under OAuth Access, create a new token with Read + Write permissions. Copy the token immediately – it is only shown once.

Download and upload mods

  1. Download mods
    Download the desired mods from mod.io/g/corekeeper. Use the Download File button on the mod page.

  2. Stop the server
    Stop your server via the dashboard.

  3. Connect via SFTP
    Connect to your server via SFTP.

  4. Upload mods
    Extract each mod into its own subfolder in the directory:

    /Mods/
    
  5. Start the server
    Start your server.
