Minecraft Server Control Discord Bot

This bot uses MSCS to control multiple Minecraft servers (henceforth referred to as worlds) running on the same system via Discord using Slash commands.

Currently, a Discord server has exactly one world attached to it, but a world can have multiple Discord servers. This might get changed in the future to allow a Discord server to control multiple worlds.

Features

• Starting, restarting or stopping a world
• Viewing the logs of a world directly in Discord
• Querying the status of a world
• Displaying the world status via Discord presence (online or idle)
• Locking worlds to prevent them from being started
• Log every command sent to the bot

TODOs

• Expand locking to optionally work per-world
• Tie the ability of using commands to having a role
• Improved, more detailed and more verbose logs, split them per world
• Add a 'sub'-mode that can be deployed on a remote server, controlled by the main node that runs the bot
• ...

Usage

• Set up your MSCS installation
• Create a Discord application and a bot for it
• Edit the .env.example file with your IDs, tokens and world names, and rename it to .env
• Run node deployment/deploy-commands.js once to register the Slash commands with Discord
• Start the server as the user created by MSCS (default minecraft): sudo -u minecraft index.js
• Optional: Use a Process Manager like pm2 to keep the process running in the background
