CraftControl RCON
This mod enhances the functionality of the CraftControl RCON mobile app for server administration. Similar features were previously available as a Spigot plugin, but now you can use them on servers running (Neo)Forge or Fabric. The main purpose is to provide detailed information about server activity directly to your smartphone.
Key Features
Currently, the mod allows tracking player chat, viewing console history, and obtaining extended data about online players. This is a server-side solution that doesn't require client installation - simply add the mod file to the mods folder, and it will work for all connected players.
Compatibility
Versions below 1.15 are not supported and will not be supported in the future. Starting from version 1.20.4, Forge is no longer supported and is replaced by NeoForge.
Available RCON Commands
Important: All commands work only through RCON and return data in JSON format.
- craftcontrolrcon chat [timestamp] - Returns all chat messages sent after the specified timestamp (in milliseconds). If the parameter is omitted, returns all messages from the buffer.
- craftcontrolrcon players - Shows information about all online players, including health, level, game mode, and UUID.
- craftcontrolrcon console [lineNumber] - Displays console entries starting from the specified line number. With a negative value, it shows the latest entries. Maximum number of lines is 10000.
Configuration
message_count - the maximum number of chat messages to be kept in the buffer. Default is 100 messages. Recommended values are between 50 and 500.
