HungerBridge
by iFamished
HungerBridge is a server-side HTTP bridge that lets external services send requests to a running Minecraft server, for Fabric and Quilt.
What it does
The mod exposes a small HTTP API through which outside programs can drive a server remotely. Its scope is limited to what the author describes as remote automation, and it adds no commands and no chat output, so players see nothing new. Access is protected by a shared secret, and the author states that the API does not open an RCON channel or expose internal server objects.
HungerBridge is aimed at server owners who want scripts, dashboards or monitoring tools to talk to their server. Run log endpoints are part of the API, and the author notes that more endpoints are planned. The project includes a Python library for calling the API and a shared common module that keeps the Fabric and Quilt builds consistent. Because only the server needs it, players join without installing anything.
HungerBridge is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and is published for Fabric and Quilt. Files cover 16 release versions 1.21 – 26.2, with the latest Fabric build 3.0-alpha for 26.2 and the latest Quilt build 2.2-alpha for 26.1.2. Paper, Purpur and Folia are listed as server platforms, and the mod's source and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Minimal HTTP API
Outside services call a small set of HTTP endpoints to automate tasks on the running server.
Shared-secret authentication
Requests are checked against a shared secret, so unauthenticated callers cannot use the API.
Run log endpoints
Endpoints return server run logs, which monitoring tools can poll or display.
Python library
A Python package wraps the HTTP API for scripts that orchestrate one or more servers.
