CommandAlias

A lightweight, high-performance command alias plugin for Paper and Folia.

CommandAlias lets you create simple custom aliases for existing commands using a plain text file, with support for reloading aliases in-game.

Features

• Create command aliases from a simple aliases.txt file
• Works on Paper 1.20.6+
• Supports Folia
• Uses Paper's modern Lifecycle command registration API
• Thread-safe alias storage with ConcurrentHashMap
• Reload aliases with /careload
• Extra arguments are forwarded automatically
• Lightweight and fast
• Includes bStats

How It Works

Aliases are loaded from:

plugins/CommandAlias/aliases.txt

Each line uses this format:

alias, command

Example:

spawn, warp spawn
lobby, server lobby
discord, tellraw @s {"text":"Join our Discord!"}

Then players can run:

/spawn
/lobby
/discord

Arguments are appended automatically, so if you define:

msgstaff, message staff

then:

/msgstaff hello

becomes:

/message staff hello

File Format

• Empty lines are ignored
• Lines starting with # are ignored
• Lines without a comma are skipped

Example:

# alias, command
spawn, warp spawn
lobby, server lobby
rules, warp rules

Commands

/careload

Reloads aliases.txt from disk.

Permission: commandalias.reload
