SyncChat

🚰 Also available on SpigotMC.

SyncChat provides an interface between the chat functionality of a Minecraft server and a Discord channel.

Everything is configurable through the plugin.yml file. Nearly all text sent to either Minecraft or Discord can be tweaked in the config.

Here is an (old) demo (no slash-commands):
