ChatSync Installation and Setup

Requirements

  1. A server running a Spigot API compatible jar
  2. A server running 1.17 or newer
  3. A Discord account
  4. A Discord bot with API token (This will be explained further on)

Installation

  1. Navigate to the releases tab and download the latest .jar file
  2. Move the .jar file into the plugins directory on your server

Setup

There are a few things that you'll need to set up the plugin. Firstly, you'll need a Discord account and a Discord server that you are an owner or admin of. Secondly, you'll need to access the Discord developer portal. Don't worry; you won't need any coding experience. This is just where you will make your bot. Thirdly, you'll need to have operator permissions on the Minecraft server that you would like to configure. Alright then, let's get started with the setup.

  1. Open the Discord Developer Portal. You can access the portal by scrolling the bottom of Discord's website and clicking the "Developers" link. You can also get there by following this link: https://discord.com/developers/applications

  2. Create a new project. Click the button in the top right corner titled "New Application." You can then name your application whatever you want your bot to be named. Once your application has been created, navigate to the "Bot" section on the left-hand side of your screen. Once you're on that page, you should see a button titled "Add Bot." Click the button and confirm your decision. Once that is done, you should see a new section on your screen with all the information about the bot. From here, you can change the username of the bot, or leave it as is. The most important part of this page is the "TOKEN" section. Click the "Copy" button and paste your token somewhere where you can access it later. Never share your token with anyone, or they will be able to control the bot. Once done, you should also uncheck the "Public Bot" option. You are now done with the "Bot" section of the website.

  3. Add the bot to your Discord server. Now that you've created your bot, you've got to get it on your server! Above the "Bot" tab on the website, click the "OAuth2" tab and select "URL Generator" from the list. In the "SCOPES" form, click the "bot" option, which should be located in the middle of the second column of options. In the new "BOT PERMISSIONS" section, select the first option, titled "Administrator." Now, scroll to the bottom of the page and click the "Copy" under the "Generated URL" section. Next, paste this link into your browser, and visit the page. Under the "Add to server" section, select the server that you want to add your bot to, and then click continue, and authorize. Once you've seen your bot join your server, you can close the tab.
