AriKeys

by ASangarin

AriKeys lets a client-side key bind send keypresses to a server, and a server-side plugin decides what those keypresses do.

What it does

On the player's side, AriKeys is a client-side mod that forwards chosen keypresses to the server the player is connected to. The server must run the AriKeysPlugin before any keypress produces a result. Without the plugin on the server, the forwarded input does nothing.

AriKeys is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 9 release versions, 1.19.2 – 1.21.3. Fabric files target 1.21.3, the Forge build targets 1.20.2 and the NeoForge build targets 1.21. Installation on Fabric needs Fabric API placed in the mods folder, and the Forge and NeoForge builds have their own install steps. Only the client needs AriKeys. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the author keeps public links to the source code, an issue tracker and a wiki.

Key features

  1. Chosen keypresses forwarded

    Keys bound on the client are sent to the connected server, which lets the server react to player input.

  2. Plugin defines key actions

    The AriKeysPlugin on the server decides what each forwarded key does, so behavior is set by the server.

  3. Client-side keybinds

    Players set up the bindings on their own client, and the mod changes nothing on the server beyond the plugin's handling.
