ChatLogger for Minecraft Fabric 1.21.4

What is this?

ChatLogger is a simple Minecraft mod for Fabric 1.21.4 that automatically logs all in-game chat messages to a file called chatlogs.txt. It works on the client and records:

• Regular chat messages (username > text)
• Join/leave messages (XXX joined from XXX, XXX left the game)

Features

• Logs chat messages with timestamps to chatlogs.txt in your Minecraft instance folder.
• Includes a Python script to send chat messages to a Discord webhook in real time.
• Prevents duplicate messages and supports a configurable cooldown between Discord sends.

How to use

1. Install the Mod

• Download the pre-built mod file for Minecraft 1.21.4 from the GitHub Actions (see the Actions tab or Releases).
  

• Place chatlogger-1.0.0.jar in your mods folder of your Fabric Minecraft instance.

• Make sure you have Fabric API installed.

2. Run Minecraft

• Start Minecraft with Fabric Loader.
• Chat messages will be logged to chatlogs.txt in your instance folder.

3. Send Chat to Discord (Optional)

• Use the included send_chat_to_discord.py Python script to forward chat messages to a Discord webhook.
• On first run, the script will create and open config.txt. Edit it with your Discord webhook link, Minecraft path, and preferred cooldown.
• The script will only send the last 15 messages on startup, then send new messages as they appear.

Example config.txt:

link = "https://discord.com/api/webhooks/your_webhook_here"
mcpath = "C:\Users\yourname\MultiMC\instances\1.21.4\.minecraft"
cooldown_sec = 1.5

4. Python Requirements

• To use the Discord script, install Python 3 and run:

  pip install -r requirements.txt

• This installs the requests library needed for Discord webhook support.

Troubleshooting

• If chat is not being logged, make sure the mod is loaded and Fabric API is installed.
• If the Python script does not send messages, check your webhook link and Minecraft path in config.txt.
