This Python script creates a Discord bot that automatically updates a voice channel name with the status of a specified Minecraft server using the mcstatus library. The bot uses the discord.py library for connecting to Discord and managing the voice channel.

discord.py: Discord API Wrapper for Python

mcstatus: Library for checking the status of Minecraft servers

config.json is used to store the channel ID of the voice channel where the status is displayed. The file has the following structure:

Copy code
{
    "channel_id": null
}

TOKEN (line 10): Replace the empty string with your Discord bot token.

IP_ADDRESS (line 11): Replace the IP address with the desired Minecraft server's IP address.

This function fetches the status of the Minecraft server and returns a formatted channel name including the server's online or offline status and player count.

This event is triggered when the bot is connected and ready. It creates a new voice channel at the top of the server if the channel ID isn't found in the config.json file, saves the channel ID, and starts the update_status_loop task.

This task runs every 5 minutes and updates the channel name with the Minecraft server's status.

Install required libraries:

pip install discord.py mcstatus

Replace the TOKEN variable with your Discord bot token and set the desired Minecraft server IP address.

Run the script:

python your_script_name.py

You can adjust the update interval by changing the minutes parameter in the tasks.loop decorator (line 44). For example, minutes=10 will update the channel name every 10 minutes.
