Minecraft: Java Edition - Discord Whitelist Bot (API Version)
Run an invite-only community and want to give your community members access to a private Minecraft: Java Edition server?
This bot is exactly what you need to do just that!
Using this bot, Discord members can use the /whitelist command inside Discord to whitelist their Minecraft account on your server.
Each member can only whitelist one account, and the bot will prevent two members whitelisting the same account.
This app supports all Vanilla, Spigot and Paper servers running most Minecraft versions. If you use a custom whitelist plugin, you might need to modify the code which checks if the account is already whitelisted.
This code is powered by Autocode's Minecraft API!

Kv Prefix - we use Autocode's key-value store to remember who has already whitelisted an account. If you're running multiple instances of this bot on the same account you should use a different KV prefix for each one. If you're only running one instance, we recommend using MC_WHITELIST as your prefix.

🤔 FAQ
- I use a custom Minecraft whitelist plugin. Will this work for me?
- Yes, but you might need to change a small bit of code on
line 78 if your plugin changes the message sent to the console when the player is already whitelisted.
- Will this work for large Discord/Minecraft servers?
- Yes, but if you run a really big server then you'll likely want to rework this code to use something like a MySQL database to store your whitelisted player data.
- Can I modify/customise this code?
