Onlysleep
One player sleeps. Everyone wakes up.
Onlysleep lets your server skip the night without waiting for every player to find a bed. One sleeper is enough by default, but you can require any percentage from 0 to 100. Install the JAR, restart the server, and the default configuration is ready to use.
- One-player sleep by default, with configurable percentage thresholds
- Separate sleep counts for each world
- Independent controls for clearing rain and thunder
- Boss bar, action bar, title, and progress-bar feedback
- Configurable sounds for bed entry and successful night skips
- Built-in AFK tracking, plus EssentialsX and CMI support
- Filters for spectators, creative players, flying players, game modes, and exempt permissions
- Automatic handling of the
playersSleepingPercentagegamerule - PlaceholderAPI support for sleep, world, and status data
- Optional update checks and anonymous bStats metrics
Requirements: Minecraft 26.3 and Java 25 or newer. Onlysleep works on its own; PlaceholderAPI is optional.
Aliases: /os, /sleep

You can use the defaults as-is. The main setting is sleep-percentage in config.yml:
0= one player sleeps, everyone wakes up50= half the server needs to be in bed100= everyone has to sleep
Set per-world-sleep: false if you want global counting across all worlds.
See config.yml for every option and messages.yml for message customization.
