DiscordIntegration: Connect Your Minecraft Server to Discord
Running a Minecraft server often means juggling two separate communities: players in-game and members on Discord. DiscordIntegration: Connect Your Minecraft Server to Discord solves this by linking both worlds in real time. This server-side mod streams chat messages, login alerts, achievements, and even server crashes directly into your Discord channel. It also lets Discord users send messages back into the game and trigger configured commands without touching the client.
The mod is designed for server administrators who want a hands-off solution. Players do not need to install anything on their end. All the heavy lifting happens on the server, making it a practical addition to any modded or vanilla setup.
What the Mod Does
DiscordIntegration acts as a two-way bridge. Once configured, it captures key events and forwards them to a designated text channel. The system is highly configurable, allowing you to enable or disable specific message types. You can choose to relay only deaths and achievements, or broadcast the entire chat flow. This granular control keeps your Discord channel clean and relevant.
Core Features
- Two-way chat relay between Discord and in-game chat, with separate channels for each direction.
- Server event notifications: startup, shutdown, crashes, player joins and leaves, deaths, and achievements.
- Custom Discord commands that execute Minecraft commands on the server, with role-based access and aliases.
- Informational commands for admins: check TPS, online player list, uptime, and force-reset the bot connection.
- Message filtering to include or exclude specific event categories.
Supported Versions and Loaders
The mod works on server builds using Forge, Fabric, or similar loaders. It supports a range of Minecraft versions, though you should verify the exact version against your server setup before downloading. The project is no longer actively developed, but the current release remains stable and functional for most server configurations. If you are upgrading from a version below 3.0.0 to 3.0.0 or newer, delete the old configuration file first. The mod will generate a fresh one, preventing potential conflicts.
How to Install
Installing DiscordIntegration: Connect Your Minecraft Server to Discord is straightforward. Follow these steps:
- Place the mod jar file into the
modsfolder on your server. - Create a Discord bot and obtain its token.
- Find the ID of the text channel where messages should appear.
- Start the server once to generate the default configuration files.
- Edit the config file to add your bot token and channel ID.
- Reload the config using the in-game command or restart the server.
For a detailed walkthrough, consult the official project wiki. If you want a simpler way to manage mods, consider using a launcher that lets you download mods directly from the menu. This reduces manual file handling and simplifies updates across your server setup.
Command Reference
All bot commands use the /discord prefix. Here are the essential ones:
/discord config reload|load|save— manage configuration on the fly./discord tps [--color]— display current server TPS, with optional color coding./discord online— list players currently online./discord unstuck— force-restart the Discord connection if the bot hangs./discord uptime— show how long the server has been running.
You can also create custom commands visible in Discord. Each command can be restricted to specific roles, given aliases, and mapped to any server-side Minecraft command. For example, a !restart command in Discord could trigger a server restart, accessible only to moderators.
Configuration and Filtering
The mod offers extensive filtering options. You can toggle each event category independently:
- Discord to Minecraft chat
- Minecraft chat to Discord
- Server startup and shutdown
- Crash detection (not guaranteed in all cases, but works most of the time)
- Player join and leave
- Player death
- Achievement unlock
This level of detail lets you keep your Discord channel focused on what matters. You can suppress noisy events while preserving critical alerts.
Final Thoughts
DiscordIntegration: Connect Your Minecraft Server to Discord remains one of the most practical server-side mods for merging Minecraft and Discord. Even though active development has stopped, the current version covers nearly all administrative needs: from simple chat mirroring to complex custom commands with role-based permissions. Setup is intuitive, and the lack of client-side requirements makes adoption painless for your player base. If you want to bring your community together and streamline server management, this mod deserves a spot in your build.
