Keybind

by iM5LB1

Keybind lets server owners bind keys to server-side commands, so a player presses a key and the server runs the action.

FabricForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.18 – 26.2

What it does

Server owners define actions in config.yml, then run kbind reload to apply them. Each action is a command the server executes when a player presses the bound key. The actions are synced from the server to the client on join, so the Controls menu shows only what the current server offers. Action names may contain letters, digits and underscores only, and the plugin checks permissions and cooldowns before a command runs.

The mod is split between a client part for Fabric and Forge and a server plugin for Paper, Spigot, Bukkit and Purpur. Players install the client mod alone; the plugin goes on the server. Keybind is client-side only, so servers that run it need nothing extra from players beyond the mod itself. Builds are published for Fabric and Forge across 31 release versions, 1.18 – 26.2, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Server-defined key actions

    Keys are bound to commands that run on the server, and the server decides what each key does.

  2. Dynamic Controls menu entries

    New server actions appear in the Settings Controls menu on join, without restarting the game.

  3. Friendly display names

    Owners can give an action a readable label, such as Teleport Spawn, in place of the raw command name.

  4. Two cooldown levels

    A global cooldown spaces out all actions, and each action can also have its own cooldown to block repeated use.

  5. Removal of stale actions

    Actions left over from earlier sessions are removed from the Controls menu automatically when the server no longer defines them.

Questions

Does Keybind have to be installed on the server?

The client mod runs on the player side. Server owners also install the Paper, Spigot, Bukkit or Purpur plugin to define and run the actions.

Which loaders does Keybind support?

Client builds are published for Fabric and Forge. Server support comes through the plugin for Paper, Spigot, Bukkit and Purpur.

Are default keys applied again when a player rejoins?

No. The default key is applied only the first time a player connects, and the saved binding is used on later joins.
