Commands and features

Chat relay

Minecraft → Discord

Normal chat from players in a connected world is sent to CHANNEL_ID. Join, leave, world-connect, and disconnect events are sent as embeds.

• When multiple worlds are connected, the world name is added to identify the source.
• Minecraft § color codes are removed by default.
• Switch to webhook mode to show the player name as the sender of the Discord message.

Discord → Minecraft

Messages from users in CHANNEL_ID are broadcast to every connected world.

• Messages sent by this bot or other bots are not relayed.
• The member’s Discord display name is used as the sender.
• Replies include the source author’s name and a short content preview.
• Messages with attachments show the file count.
• Message filters can shorten long messages or replace or reject content matching a regular expression.

Connecting to multiple worlds

discord-mcbe can connect multiple Minecraft worlds at the same time. Give each world a unique name so that messages can be identified by their source. See world setup for connection instructions.

After setting a world name with /dmc:setname <name>, specify world in Discord’s /list or /command to target one world. Omitting world targets every connected world.

Send death logs

When a player dies, discord-mcbe sends the Minecraft death message for the cause of death to Discord. When multiple worlds are connected, the source world name is also shown.

Use bot.show_death_messages in config.json to control death logs. It defaults to true; set it to false to disable them. See configuration for details.
