Ngrok Api
by jaanonim
Ngrok Api is a Utility mod that fetches the current address of a Minecraft server hosted through ngrok, so players no longer copy a changed address by hand.
What it does
Ngrok Api connects to the ngrok API with an API key that the server host adds to the mod's key list. Once a key is stored, the mod retrieves the address that ngrok currently assigns to the server and updates it without further input, which removes the need to track address changes manually. Several keys can be added and removed, so one client can reach more than one ngrok server.
The mod is solely intended for retrieving the addresses of Minecraft servers hosted with ngrok, and it works with Fabric API, which is required on both loaders. It is published for Fabric and Forge across 4 release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.20.1, and is client-side only, so servers and their players do not need it. Its code is open source under the MIT License.
