feeling a little generous today ## What's new - Plugin Integration: **BetterTeams** - /team chat toggled messages will not be sent in Matrix - **Support for Folia Servers**

_blows off dust_ Hello again, here with a huge release! Apologies in advance if you encounter any bugs! Please help out by creating an issue here if you find one! ## What's new - **[IMPORTANT] Configuration Update** from 2.4.0 to 2.7.0. **Please check the latest config.new.yml generated by the plugin and update your config!** There are a lot of new options<br><br> - **Plugin Integrations:** Laid foundation for integrating with other plugins. This version includes **EssentialsX** integration (Vanish and Mute). - **Server Watchdog:** Inspired by DiscordSRV, will notify you when the server hasn't ticked within a configured timeout. Useful if you want to know whether your server is dying - **Per-purpose Room Configuration:** You can now select different rooms for different types of messages (join, leave, death, in-game chat, server status, watchdog) - **Per-room Topic Configuration:** With the above feature, you can also set room specific topics - Allow commands only in specific rooms using the `command_allowed_rooms` option. - **Spaces support:** The bot will now join a space if invited and set in config.yml, and can join the configured rooms automatically. - **Knock support:** The bot will try knocking on a room (in Matrix.org terms :D) if the room has knocking enabled. It will prompt you to accept the knock and run `/msb restart`. ## Technical Changes - Reworked the startup flow - now the plugin does not try joining rooms before authentication. - API errors now look much cleaner in the log and has few suggestions for common problems. - Added the PluginIntegration interface and IntegrationManager, to facilitate future plugin integrations - Improved first startup detection, the plugin now checks only if config.yml is regenerated and not if the whole folder exists. - Removed `utf-8` from `Content-Type` as it is implicit anyways (@Aceroph - #7) - Do not apply setDoOutput on GET requests - Console log relaying is planned for a future release. - CONTRIBUTING.md added. Contributions are always welcome :D

Thank you @lautriva for mentioning my fork and giving permission to use your logo! And thank you all for 100+ downloads! Feel free to send me your feature requests and bug reports in the [Matrix Room](https://matrix.to/#/%23matrixspigotbridge-v2-support:matrix.org) / [SpigotMC Resource Discussion Tab](https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/matrixspigotbridge-fork.691428/) / [Discord](https://dsc.gg/pseudoforceyt) ## What's new - Upgraded all requests to use the v3 endpoint - Better handling of Matrix formatting to Minecraft formatting conversion - Bot now automatically joins the configured room if it is not already in the room - New built-in placeholder: Timestamps! Use placeholder `{TIME:<format>}` to insert the current time in the specified format. It should be a valid Java datetime format pattern. Example: `{TIME:yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss}` gives `2025-11-21 12:48:42`. [More info on the format](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/time/format/DateTimeFormatter.html#:~:text=Patterns%20for%20Formatting%20and%20Parsing) - Plugin no longer processes messages that were sent before the plugin is fully loaded when the server is starting. - Matrix API error responses are now printed on the console to make it clearer for troubleshooting. - [Technical] Code refactoring

This hotfix release changes the HTTP request made to send messages from POST to PUT (as reported in https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/matrixspigotbridge-v2.691428/#post-4890831) and adds incremental transaction IDs with the request according to spec. If the plugin is working for you then this update is optional.

## What's new - **[IMPORTANT] Configuration Update** from 2.3.1 to 2.4.0. **Please check the latest config.new.yml generated by the plugin and update your config!** <br><br> - Set a limit to the number of characters and the number of lines in the Matrix message, exceeding which the message would not be sent in Minecraft chat - Message Reactions: Messages filtered by regex or above limits will be reacted with ❗, and unknown commands with ❓. - "Disabled commands" logic is removed; now, commands which are not in the available_commands list in your configuration are considered to be unknown commands. - **bStats has been brought back, but will not be enabled on the first startup (no config file generated).** This is required for me to evaluate whether it is worth it to keep working on this plugin even when I am not hosting my own Minecraft server. **If you are upgrading from a previous version and want to keep it disabled, add `bstats_consent: false` under the `common` section of the configuration** - Sorry for the frequent configuration changes!

This release fixes the `available_commands` configuration to work as a whitelist as opposed to a blacklist. This is due to a remnant in the code from the unreleased version 2.2.0

## What's new? - **[IMPORTANT] Configuration update!** from 2.1.1 to 2.3.0; pertaining to the below features. **Please check the latest config.new.yml generated by the plugin and update your config!** - **[IMPORTANT]** If you have been using markdown symbols to format the Matrix-bound messages in your config, **you must change them to their HTML equivalent for them to display properly.** Check the comments in the new config for conversion.<br><br> - New Matrix chat commands: `help`, `ip` - Unknown chat command detection: This will send the unknown command message along with the command list - Disable Matrix chat commands: Remove them from the `available_commands` list in the config - Preserve formatting across Minecraft and Matrix chat - Blacklist users (may be helpful to filter out other bots, or problematic users :<) - Filter messages using regular expressions [regex] (e.g. filtering profanity) - Set room topic periodically - check config for more information on how this works ### Technical changes - Fixed the "nag author(s)" error (plugin is not properly shutting down its async tasks when it is being shut down). - Room filter generation now uses JSONObject instead of strings - Created ConfigUtils, so that I no longer have to use Spigot Config API anywhere outside it - Matrix password login now tries API v3, r0, v1 in that order - The plugin now sends each message with a regular body and a formatted_body. When reserialization is disabled in config, both of these take same value. This change brings with it, a 5x increase in jar size because full html formatting is handled using Apache common-text StringEscapeUtils - The plugin now automatically removes all consecutive trailing /'s from the homeserver URL. Additionally, some basic config checking is included. Bugs?

## What's new? I apologise for trying to add telemetry to the otherwise fine plugin. I see how this may concern people conscious of telemetry. bstats plugin metrics have been completely removed from the plugin ### Technical Changes: - Significantly reduced jar size (not correlated to removal of bstats)

## What's new? - **[Notice from 2.0.0] IMPORTANT:** Configuration changes! Please check the [latest config.yml](https://github.com/pseudosmp/matrix-spigot-bridge/blob/master/src/main/resources/config.yml) and add the missing config values: `common.bstats_consent: true` and `matrix.command_prefix: "!"` to your existing config.yml. **PLEASE IGNORE IF UPDATING FROM 2.0.0** - In-game commands: `/msb [ping | reload | restart]` - Permissions for in-game commands: `msb.command.ping, msb.command.reload, msb.command.restart` - The plugin will now generate a new `config.new.yml` file if there are changes to the config and you haven't updated it. ### Technical changes - Connection to the Matrix server is now handled asynchronously. This will prevent the plugin from locking up the server if the connection times out or fails.
