RustWeb extends any Rust experimental server with a lightweight webserver running on your server's ip and port, which provides a lot of useful information about your server and allows players to locate themselves on the map. Additionally, it comes with the utility required to generate a top-down 2D image of your server's map.
The plugin is not limited to a specific modding framework by design. Instead, it uses a tiny bit of glue to load it into the modding framework of your choice.
Currently available glue with setup instructions:

The webserver serves a set of JSON-formatted data files on your server's ip address and port, e.g. "http://SERVERIP:SERVERPORT/".
-
/status.json contains general information about your server, like its hostname and the maximum number of players. Includes a list of players if
statusIncludesPlayers=true. -
/monuments.json (requires authentication if
displayMonuments=false) contains your server's monuments data. -
/buildings.json (requires authentication if
displayBuildings=false) contains a list of all buildings on the map. -
/players.json (requires authentication) contains a list of all players currently connected including their locations.
-
/sleepers.json (requires authentication) contains a list of all sleepers including their locations.
-
/animals.json (requires authentication) contains a list of all animals including their locations.
-
/resources.json (requires authentication) contains a list of all resources including their locations.
To authenticate for restricted data files, use username "admin" and your RCON password.
To change configuration parameters, edit the file "config.json" inside of the "www" directory.
-
displayMonuments specifies whether to display monuments to all players, making /monuments.json public.
-
displayBuildings specifies whether to display buildings to all players, making /buildings.json public.
-
statusIncludesPlayers specifies whether to include player names in /status.json. This is for example required for admins to see player names on mouse hover.
-
welcomeMessage specifies the welcome message displayed in game. Allows placeholders for
{IP},{PORT}and{NAME]. May be set tonullto disable. -
broadcastDeaths specifies whether to broadcast death events also in game.
The plugin also provides a set of RCON commands for map generation:
-
map.export RESOLUTION generates a 2D top-down image of your map using the specified RESOLUTION (height and width of the output image). RESOLUTION is an integer up to a maximum value of
4000. Example:map.export 1000 -
map.monuments returns a list of all monuments on the map.
-
web.reloadconfig reloads the "config.json" file from "www".
The webserver serves files straight from its "www" directory which developers may use to add custom content to their server.
