DiscordIO
by Hidde2727
DiscordIO links a Minecraft server to a Discord server, so staff can manage the whitelist and bans from Discord and receive server messages there.
What it does
Whitelist and ban decisions can be made from Discord, and the server can relay its own messages into a Discord channel. Server start and stop events are sent as notifications, so admins know when the server is up or down without opening the game.
The mod also covers moderation workflows. An unban feature lets staff reverse punishments, and a rule can turn repeated kicks into a permanent ban or a timed one. A maintenance mode blocks everyone except players named in the config and pauses join events until it is switched off. Behavior is set in config.yaml and language.yml, which cover most of the options.
DiscordIO runs on Fabric and can also be used with Velocity proxies in front of Fabric servers. It is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. Files cover 17 release versions, from 1.21 onward to 26.3, and the mod is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Discord whitelist control
Whitelist entries and bans can be changed through Discord, so moderation happens where staff already talk.
Server start and stop alerts
Start and stop events are posted to Discord, giving a timestamped record of when the server went up or down.
Chat bridge
Messages from the Minecraft server are forwarded to a Discord channel for players and staff who are not in the game.
Kick escalation and unbanning
Repeated kicks can lead to a timed or permanent ban, and an unban command reverses any punishment.
Maintenance mode
Only players listed in the config can join while maintenance is on, and join events are disabled until it ends.
Configurable behavior
Config.yaml and language.yml hold the options and messages, so each server can adapt the bridge and wording.

How it compares
Discord: JustSync is also a Fabric, server-side only mod under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, published for 1.21.4 onward, and it is open source. Customizable Death Ban is open source under the MIT License and needs both the client and server, covering 1.21.11 onward. DiscordIO differs by running on the server alone, with the same MIT License as Customizable Death Ban.
