shulker
Connects Discord and Minecraft Servers by sending messages back and forth without any mods or plugins.
Notice
This project has recently gone under a rewrite and the format for config.json
is not directly backwards compatible with previous versions.
See below for details.
In Action
Features
- Sends message to and from Vanilla Minecraft servers
- Can send messages regarding advancements, when players join and leave, and player deaths
- Allows admins to send commands to Minecraft through Discord
Installation and usage
Create a Discord bot here: https://discordapp.com/developers/applications/me
Then, add the bot to your Discord server using the following link, replace the Client ID with that of your bot.
https://discordapp.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<CLIENT ID>&scope=bot
In your Minecraft server.properties, make sure you have the following and restart the server:
enable-rcon=true
rcon.password=<your password>
rcon.port=<1-65535>
Clone repository onto a server, edit config.json
(see below for more info) and change any options.
Then, in the repository folder:
$ yarn
$ yarn build && yarn start
If you are running this on the same server as the MC server, enable the IS_LOCAL_FILE
flag and update related options below.
Otherwise, perform the following command on the server hosting (in a screen/tmux session or background process, make sure to replace your YOUR_URL
with whatever URL you're using (localhost:8000
if running on the same server and default config) and PATH_TO_MINECRAFT_SERVER_INSTALL
with the path to the Minecraft server installation, such as /usr/home/minecraft_server/
):
tail -F /PATH_TO_MINECRAFT_SERVER_INSTALL/logs/latest.log | grep --line-buffered ": <" | while read x ; do echo -ne $x | curl -X POST -d @- http://YOUR_URL/minecraft/hook ; done
(The above command will also be given to you if you are not using a local file when you start up Shulker)
You can also easily Deploy to Heroku and the like, just be sure to edit YOUR_URL
in the command to match accordingly.
