MineSocket

by Zamecki

MineSocket lets a Minecraft server open a WebSocket connection to an external server, so it can send and receive messages over that link.

FabricServer-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.21 – 1.21.8

What it does

Once a connection is set up, the server can handle disconnections, receive messages from the WebSocket client, and run callbacks when messages arrive. Connections are secured through the WebSocket protocol, and the mod works with singleplayer and multiplayer worlds alike.

Installation requires Fabric API on Fabric, and the mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. It is released under the MIT License as open source, with source code publicly available. Files exist for 1.21 – 1.21.8, and the latest build, 1.0.1-1.21.x, targets 1.21.8. The author notes that the project is still in development and not yet ready for everyday use. Its configuration can be paired with the Streamer.bot extension.

Key features

  1. WebSocket connections

    The server opens and maintains a WebSocket connection to an external endpoint, letting it exchange messages with that endpoint.

  2. Message receiving

    Messages sent by the connected WebSocket client are received by the server, where they can be used to trigger actions.

  3. Connection handling

    The mod handles disconnections on the WebSocket link, so the server can react when the connection drops.

  4. Server callbacks

    Callbacks run on the server when messages come in, letting server logic respond to external input.

  5. Secure connections

    Connections use the WebSocket protocol with a secure configuration, according to the author.

How it compares

Full comparison

WebSocket Commands is server-side only, published for Fabric and NeoForge, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.20.4 – 1.21. ChatSocket is client-side only, released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and targets 1.21.5 alone, so it runs on a player's client instead of the server. StealthPipe needs both client and server, is open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.21.8 – 26.1.
