Nilcord | Yet another Discord bridge for Minecraft

Nilcord connects the chat of your Minecraft server to a specified Discord text channel, using a Discord bot and (optionally) webhook.

Installation

To get the mod set up, simply place the mod file in the mods directory (or nilmods with NilLoader), start your Minecraft server, and wait for it to generate the config file (and crash because it's not yet populated).

The config file, named nilcord.toml, is found in the config folder, and is pretty self-explanatory.

(Note that this is the config file for Nilcord 2.1.0+1.20.4+fabric. It may look different on other versions.)

Only the token and channel_id fields (under the discord category) are strictly required to be filled out; the mod falls back to sensible defaults for everything else. But feel free to change it to your liking!

Notes

For setting up a Discord application (to get a bot token), follow discord.js' guide: Setting up a bot application | discord.js Guide

For finding a Discord channel's "Channel ID", follow Discord's guide: Where can I find my User/Server/Message ID? - Discord

The Fabric (and NeoForge!?) versions can also make use of the Simplified Text Format, as well as placeholders supplied by Text Placeholder API and the various mods that support it.
