What it does

The mod is a library for server owners and other mods that need to send notices to players, reaching both those who are online and those who log in later. It runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. The server config is generated after the first launch, and the path to the SQL database can be edited there. Quill Notifications is published for Fabric and Quilt for 1.16.5 – 1.21.5 and requires Fabric API and SQLib. It is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, and the source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Styled notifications

    Sends messages to players in a styled format, using the Adventure API for text components.

  2. Online and offline delivery

    Notices reach players who are connected now and players who join after the message was sent.

  3. SQL-backed storage

    Pending notifications are kept in an SQL database whose file path is set in the server config.

What the author says

Use of Adventure API is not required but encouraged. Once the mod is installed on your server, a config will be generated after the first launch. Be sure to edit this config and point it to a file path or a my sql database.
