CrossLink aims at bridging Minecraft chats and instant messaging platforms together. CrossLink is a refactor of the legacy BungeeCross. Heavy rewrite has been made to improve the software quality.
CrossLink treats all chat areas in sub-servers of a Minecraft server group as separate endpoints. Different instant messaging software are also different endpoints. Server operator creates configuration files, which describes how the messages should be routed among distinct endpoints. This enables people from different Minecraft sub-server chats and even different instant messaging platforms, chat together, in a tidy way.
Message forwarding is very configurable. CrossLink does not concern about where the messages come from,
or where they will ultimately go. The forwarding process is entirely controlled by the server operator.
Server operator combines actions like filter by source, filter by content, replace by regexp, discard
and forward into rules. Some sequential rules line up a routing table. CrossLink forward messages according to
the routing table. The combinations of actions are versatile to help build a highly configurable
message forwarding system among grouped Minecraft servers and instant messaging platforms.
Currently, only Telegram is supported as an instant messaging platform.
If you wish to link to other instant messaging platforms, implementing that protocol in a standalone program
is encouraged, which could be linked to CrossLink with psmb protocol.
-
Minecraft reverse proxy server：
- BungeeCord (not tested, compatible in theory)
- Waterfall (tested in
waterfall-1.18-470) - Velocity (tested in
velocity-3.1.1-98)
-
Java Runtime：
- OpenJDK 17 (tested in
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0.1+12-LTS, mixed mode, sharing))
- OpenJDK 17 (tested in
- Copy plugin's
.jarfile topluginsfolder. - Create subdirectory
crosslinkin that folder. - Create
messaging.jsonandapi.jsonin the folder created in previous step. - Copy and edit configuration like the examples below.
