Discord Presence

Original Designed for Dungeon Train, but works standalone.

See your Minecraft server come alive in Discord. Discord Presence posts a message the moment a player joins, then keeps it live with reactions — a 🟢 while they're online that disappears when they leave, and a 💀 when they fall.

Features

📨 Join notifications — PlayerName started the game, posted via a Discord webhook with the player's name and Minecraft head as the avatar.
🟢 Live online status — a reaction added while the player is online, automatically removed on logout.
💀 Death markers — a reaction added to the join message when the player dies.
⚙️ Fully configurable — message template and both emojis are server-side config.
🪶 Zero dependencies, zero lag — pure event-driven; every network call runs off-thread, so if Discord is unreachable your game never notices.

Why a webhook and a bot?

Discord webhooks can post messages but can't add reactions — only a bot can. So Discord Presence uses a webhook to post (giving each message the player's own name + avatar) and a lightweight bot for the reactions. That same bot is the foundation for two-way chat, coming in a future update.

Setup

Webhook — Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook → copy the URL.
Bot — create an app at the Discord Developer Portal, add a bot, invite it with View Channel + Read Message History + Add Reactions, copy its token.
Put both in config/discordpresence-server.toml (created on first launch). The mod is off until a webhook is set.

Config key	What it does
`webhookUrl`	Webhook that posts join messages (blank = mod off)
`botToken`	Bot token for reactions (blank = messages only)
`joinMessageTemplate`	`{player}` is replaced with the player's name
`onlineEmoji` / `deathEmoji`	The reaction emojis (any unicode emoji)

Requirements

Minecraft 1.21.1 · NeoForge
