My-MC Link Discord Bot (BETA)
Welcome to the My-MC Link Discord Bot, a Discord bot designed to manage your Minecraft servers directly through Discord commands! This bot uses the MyMCLib API to interact with your server, allowing you to perform essential tasks like starting/stopping servers, managing players, installing mods, and much more.
Table of Contents
Features
- Start, stop, and restart your Minecraft server with simple commands.
- Check real-time server statistics like memory usage, CPU, and more.
- Manage player bans/unbans, send messages to players, and view online players.
- Install, uninstall, and list mods directly from Discord.
- View real-time server logs and connection details (SFTP, P2P, etc.).
- Works as a user-installable app!
Installation
Prerequisites
- Node.js: Ensure you have Node.js (v16 or later) installed on your machine.
- npm: Comes bundled with Node.js for installing dependencies.
- Discord Bot Token: You will need to create a Discord bot and get its token. Learn how.
Steps
-
Clone the Repository
git clone https://git.ssh.surf/hypermc/hypermc-api-user-install-bot cd hypermc-api-user-install-bot
-
Install Dependencies Install all necessary dependencies using
npm
:npm install
-
Configuration You need to create a
config.json
file for the bot's configuration. Here's an example:{ "token": "YOUR_DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN", "clientId": "YOUR_DISCORD_CLIENT_ID", "endpoint": "YOUR_AUTHENTICATION_ENDPOINT", "password": "YOUR_AUTHENTICATION_PASSWORD" }
-
Run the Bot Once everything is configured, start the bot:
node bot.js
Configuration
The config.json
file must contain the following:
- token: The token for your Discord bot.
- clientId: The client ID of your bot from the Discord developer portal.
- endpoint: The authentication endpoint for obtaining user API tokens.
- password: The password required by the authentication service.
Here is an example config.json
file:
{
"token": "YOUR_DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN",
"clientId": "YOUR_DISCORD_CLIENT_ID",
"endpoint": "https://your-auth-endpoint.com/auth",
"password": "your-auth-password"
}

/server-time

Token Handling
This bot automatically handles user API tokens. When a user runs any command, the bot checks if a valid token exists for that user. If not, it fetches and stores a new token via the configured authentication endpoint.
Tokens are stored in a tokens.json
file on the server.
- fetchAndSaveToken: Automatically requests and stores a new API token if needed.
- getToken: Retrieves a stored token or requests a new one if none exists or if the token is invalid.
Token Persistence
The tokens are stored locally in a tokens.json
file using the jsonfile
package:
{
"userId": "user-token"
}
The bot will load tokens from this file when needed and automatically refresh them if expired or invalid.
Usage
Once the bot is up and running, invite it to your Discord server. Users can run commands like /server-time
or /start-server
to interact with the Minecraft server.
Commands can be run either in public channels or privately, depending on how you've set up the bot. Some responses can also be made ephemeral (visible only to the user who executed the command).
For example:
- Running
/server-stats
will display current server stats like CPU and memory usage. - Running
/install-mod modid
will install a specified mod on the server.
Example Command Usage
/server-stats
# Displays server statistics
/ban-player username:exampleUser
# Bans 'exampleUser' from the Minecraft server
/give-item username:exampleUser item:diamond amount:5
# Gives 5 diamonds to 'exampleUser'
