# NotifMod<\/p>\n
**A client-side Fabric mod that gives you notifications when certain things happen!**
\nThe notifications can be in the form of a sound, a message (chat\/actionbar\/title) or both.<\/p>\n
The mod is highly configurable and currently supports the following events:
\n– Equipment durability low
\n– Unbreakable equipment stopped working (elytra)
\n– Equipment fully repaired (mending)
\n– Chat message
\n– Chat username mention
\n– Able to sleep
\n– Your lead broke
\n– Player joined server
\n– Player left server
\n– Game’s done loading
\n– World’s done loading (when initially connecting)<\/p>\n
It can also start a timer and remind you when the time’s up (useful for things like breeding animals).<\/p>\n
## Dependencies<\/p>\n
This mod depends on:
\n– Fabric API
\n– Cloth Config API
\n– Mod Menu (optional)<\/p>\n
*The mod will function without Mod Menu, but you won’t be able to access the
\nin-game configuration screen, so it’s recommended to include it.*<\/p>\n
## Notification sounds<\/p>\n
The mod comes with a few simple sounds you can use if you want. However, you can use any sound
\nin the game, or even add your own, by replacing NotifMod’s sounds using a simple resource pack!<\/p>\n
## Notification filters<\/p>\n
In the mod’s settings, you’ll notice that you can specify what chat messages give you notifications, using regular expressions (aka RegEx).
\nIf you don’t know what a regular expression is, it’s basically a series of characters that describe a pattern to look for (match).
\nThey’re really powerful and can describe a ton of things and since this mod is meant to be highly configurable, they’re perfect for the job.
\nIf you really want to learn them and do something more complicated, you can find a lot of info or test them online, pretty easily (to get an idea, watch this and check out RegExr)!<\/p>\n
I’ll go over some very common uses of regex in this mod, to give you an idea of how to do simple things.<\/p>\n
### *Getting mention notifications for many different variations of your name* This mod will replace any occurrences of p<\/b> with your username, before actually interpreting the regex. There’s a small potential issue with this: if someone says “alexa”, I’ll still get a notification. This change tells it that if there’s any other characters around it, the ones immediately next to it have to be anything but letters or numbers.<\/p>\n The mod can also color your name, when mentioned. You’ll have to use a regex pattern again, but you most likely want it to be pretty similar to the filter one, from above. ### *Getting notifications for private messages* ~~*Update: as of 1.19, chat messages coming from the server console do not use the “system” channel anymore, they’re now on the “chat” channel.*~~ ## Issues<\/p>\n Please report any issues on GitHub, thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Get notifications when certain things happen!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":113980,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"notifmod","_minecraft_project_id":"bmK8wGFt","_minecraft_author":"811Alex","_minecraft_license":"MIT","_minecraft_downloads":14649,"_minecraft_follows":73,"_minecraft_client_side":"required","_minecraft_server_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"notifmod.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":29049522,"_minecraft_version_count":80,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-15T22:08:52.978508Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2022-06-25T21:32:28.696015Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-03-29T01:25:20.458997Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/notifmod","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":113980,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-06T17:14:43+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"2271deacdfbecfcec8a305fe4edb312f","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[88,97,92],"mod_loader":[99],"minecraft_version":[47,48,49,50,51,52,53,54,55,56,57,59,36,60,93,94,102,62,37,40,41,73,74,38,78,79,80,81,82,83,167,163],"class_list":["post-113979","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-equipment","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-utility","mod_loader-fabric","minecraft_version-1-16-4","minecraft_version-1-16-5","minecraft_version-1-17","minecraft_version-1-17-1","minecraft_version-1-18","minecraft_version-1-18-1","minecraft_version-1-18-2","minecraft_version-1-19","minecraft_version-1-19-1","minecraft_version-1-19-2","minecraft_version-1-19-3","minecraft_version-1-20","minecraft_version-1-20-1","minecraft_version-1-20-2","minecraft_version-1-20-3","minecraft_version-1-20-4","minecraft_version-1-20-6","minecraft_version-1-21","minecraft_version-1-21-1","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-2","minecraft_version-1-21-3","minecraft_version-1-21-4","minecraft_version-1-21-5","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9","minecraft_version-26-1","minecraft_version-26-1-1","minecraft_version-26-1-2"],"yoast_head":"\n
\nIf people sometimes refer to me by my username, but sometimes call me “awex”, “alex”, or “baka”, I can use this regex: .*(p<\/span>|awex|alex|baka).*<\/b><\/p>\n
\nWe can add as many names\/words as we want, inside the parentheses, separated by |<\/b>.<\/p>\n
\nTo make it only consider it a mention if it’s a full word, without any extra letters, we can use this: (.*W)?(p<\/span>|awex|alex|baka)(W.*)?<\/b><\/p>\n
\nIf you wanted to color different variations of your name, you could basically just omit the .*<\/b> parts, e.g.: p<\/b>|awex|alex|baka<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThis can be a bit more difficult, since private messages work using a server plugin and how it works will be different according to the plugin being used by the server etc.
\nThe plugin might be using the “system” channel instead of “chat”, so you’ll have to make sure you’re filtering the right channel too.
\nThe rest comes down to what incoming private messages look like. You’ll have to write the regex accordingly.
\nAs an example, if the format of incoming messages is this: **[Joe -> You] Hello!**
\nYou can use something like this: .*[.+ -> You] .*<\/b>
\nYou can also use it together with other things. For example, if this is for the “system” channel, but you also want to get notifications for messages coming from the server console (they’d start with **[Server]** and use the “system” channel too), you can combine it the same way we did with names above: ([Server] .*)|(.*[.+ -> You] .*)<\/b><\/p>\n
\nUpdate 2: as of 1.19.1, chat messages coming from the server console use the “system” channel again and don’t include the “[server]” part.<\/p>\n
