# Get latest version
latest_version = minecraft_launcher_lib.utils.get_latest_version()["release"]
# Get Minecraft directory
minecraft_directory = minecraft_launcher_lib.utils.get_minecraft_directory()
# Make sure, the latest version of Minecraft is installed
minecraft_launcher_lib.install.install_minecraft_version(latest_version, minecraft_directory)
# Login
login_url, state, code_verifier = minecraft_launcher_lib.microsoft_account.get_secure_login_data(CLIENT_ID, REDIRECT_URL)
print(f"Please open {login_url} in your browser and copy the url you are redirected into the prompt below.")
code_url = input()
# Get the code from the url
try:
auth_code = minecraft_launcher_lib.microsoft_account.parse_auth_code_url(code_url, state)
except AssertionError:
print("States do not match!")
sys.exit(1)
except KeyError:
print("Url not valid")
sys.exit(1)
# Get the login data
login_data = minecraft_launcher_lib.microsoft_account.complete_login(CLIENT_ID, None, REDIRECT_URL, auth_code, code_verifier)
# Get Minecraft command
options = {
"username": login_data["name"],
"uuid": login_data["id"],
"token": login_data["access_token"]
}
