Client Chat Events

dev.architectury.event.events.client.ClientChatEvent

Intercept chat the client sends or receives.

Events

Event	Listener method	Returns
SEND	send(String message, Component component)	EventResult - interrupt to cancel sending.
RECEIVED	process(ChatType.Bound type, Component message)	CompoundEventResult<Component> - interrupt with a Component to override the displayed message.

For SEND, the decorated component may be null. For RECEIVED, return an interrupting CompoundEventResult carrying a replacement Component to change what's shown.

Examples

Stop the client from sending messages that start with a marker:

ClientChatEvent.SEND.register((message, component) -> {
    if (message.startsWith("//")) {
        return EventResult.interruptFalse(); // don't send it
    }
    return EventResult.pass();
});

Rewrite incoming messages:

ClientChatEvent.RECEIVED.register((type, message) -> {
    Component edited = message.copy().append(" 🌟");
    return CompoundEventResult.interruptTrue(edited);
});
