IMS Bridge
by malwry
IMS Bridge relays chat between Discord and the in-game chat of Hypixel guilds, for players who want a guild channel on Discord.
What it does
The bridge links a Discord channel with a Hypixel guild chat through a bridge bot. Players only see the relayed messages on their own client, as with most other bridges. Membership is checked through a Hypixel API key, so only members of the IMS guild can use it. Files target 1.8.9 and 26.3 on Fabric and Forge, with game versions 1.8.9 – 26.3 across the release list, and the code is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, so it is open source.
Key features
Guild chat relay
Messages sent in the Hypixel guild chat appear in the linked Discord channel, and the reverse.
Key-based member check
A Hypixel API key confirms that a user belongs to the IMS guild before the bridge accepts them.
Client-side messages
Relayed messages show up only on the player's client, so the server is not involved in the exchange.
