Plugins / Stream Deck

Stardew Deck

Your farm on your Stream Deck. The clock and weather, what still needs doing today, upcoming festivals and birthdays, friendships and the gifts villagers love, the fish biting where you stand, Community Center bundles, the mines, quests, the traveling cart, what you have never shipped, your skills and buffs, and your own to-do list, all live from the game. Keys also open menus, pick toolbar slots, zoom, set the volume and take screenshots.

Get it on Elgato Marketplace Setup guide Live

Twelve wooden Stream Deck keys: the clock at 1:50 pm, rain with an Egg Festival tomorrow, 48,250 gold, energy and health bars, eight reminders, upcoming events, the calendar, friends talked to, fish biting now, bundles done, a mine floor with its ores, and the to-do list. — Live from the game, on wooden keys with original pixel art. Every farm and name here is made up.

What you need

Stardew Valley 1.6 on Windows, with SMAPI 4, the game's mod loader.
The Stardew Deck Bridge mod, below: it shares what the keys show.
Windows 10 or 11 with Stream Deck software 7.1 or newer. Any Stream Deck works; the Stream Deck + gets dials and touch strip images too.
Optional: Generic Mod Config Menu, which puts the mod's settings, including the Spoilers and Cheats switches, in the game's options.

1. Install the mod

Ready. The mod is the release build the plugin was submitted with. Install it now; the plugin follows as soon as the Marketplace approves it.

Download Stardew Deck Bridge 1.1.0 SMAPI mod · 67 KB zip

Unzip it into the game's Mods folder, so you have Mods\StardewDeckBridge.
Start the game through SMAPI. The SMAPI window says Listening for Stream Deck on 127.0.0.1:52817.

It works alongside other mods, including large expansions: festivals, villagers, fish and bundles that mods add show up too. With Generic Mod Config Menu installed, the mod's settings appear in the game's options.

2. Install the plugin

On the Elgato Marketplace. Install Stardew Deck from its Marketplace listing; Stream Deck loads it automatically and there is nothing to configure on disk. It comes with a ready-made profile for every Stream Deck.

3. The keys

Every key is in the Stardew Deck category. Leave titles empty; the keys draw their own.

Twelve more keys: the day's takings, the farming skill at level 6, a Farmer's Lunch buff, the traveling cart with three wanted items, the shipping collection at 61 of 145, three open quests, museum donations, two heart events waiting, three players online, a fishing planner naming a catfish, the screenshot key, and two letters in the mailbox. — The day's takings, skills, buffs, the cart, shipping, quests, the museum, heart events, players, the fishing planner, screenshots and mail.

4. Pages on the deck

Three villager keys with hearts, relationship and talk and gift chips, then two keys listing a villager's loved and liked gifts, with the gifts in your bag in gold. — The friends page. Press a villager for a page of the gifts they love and like, a gift per key; the ones in your bag are gold.

Some keys open a page with a key per item, with Back and paging: the calendar (the next four weeks, a week to a column on an XL), friends, fish (why a fish is not biting: another season, rain only, a time of day), bundles (what each still needs), quests, the cart's stock (with prices, the items you want first), what you have never shipped, and to-dos. Press a villager for their gifts, or a bundle for its items, and each gets a page of its own, one item per key.

A calendar day with the Egg Festival and a birthday, a legendary fish biting now, a fish that bites mornings and nights, a bundle with an item in the bag, and a to-do. — A day, two fish, a bundle and a to-do, from their pages.

Eight page keys: a melon the cart sells that a bundle needs, a catfish marked new fish, a cauliflower never shipped and in your bag, a quest due tomorrow, a special order, a loved gift, and two bundle items, one done and one needed. — From the cart, shipping, quests, gifts and bundle pages.

5. Stream Deck + dials

Eight touch strip images: the clock, a calendar day, a villager with a hearts bar, a fish, a bundle, a reminder, a to-do, and the music volume. — Touch strip images. Turning a dial moves through days, villagers, fish, bundles, reminders or to-dos.

On a Stream Deck +, every information key draws a wooden image on the touch strip, and its dial moves through what it shows. Audio puts the game's four volume sliders, music, sound, ambient and footsteps, on the four dials: turn to change, push to mute. Toolbar and Zoom work on dials too, and the Energy dial turns to a graph of the day's energy.

Four touch strip images: the day's energy as a falling graph from 6 am, the mining skill at level 5 with a bar, a melon on the traveling cart for 750 gold, and a quest due in a day. — The energy graph, a skill, the cart and a quest on the touch strip.

6. The to-do list

Press L in the game, or a To-do key, and the list opens in the game: type a to-do and press Enter, click one to change it, tick it off or remove it, and press Esc to close. The to-do page on the deck has a key per item; press one to tick it off, and Clear removes ticked ones. Each save and farmer keeps its own list, in the mod's folder rather than the save file. The SMAPI console takes deck_todo add water the greenhouse and deck_todo list too.

7. Mod settings

Install Generic Mod Config Menu (GMCM) and the settings appear in the game: the cog on the title screen, or Options → Mod Options once a save is loaded, under Stardew Deck Bridge. Without it, the same settings live in config.json in the mod's folder. They are: EnableCheats (off by default), AllowActions (whether keys may open menus, pick slots, zoom, change the volume and take screenshots; information is always shared), TodoMenuKey (L by default) and Port.

The Stardew Deck Bridge page in Generic Mod Config Menu: Allow actions, To-do list key L, Port 52817; a Spoilers section with Gift tastes, Heart events, Hide uncaught fish names, Hide unshipped items, Villager locations and Show ore in the mines on tile; a Cheats section with Enable cheats and Cheat sounds, both unticked. — The mod's page in Generic Mod Config Menu. Cheats are unticked out of the box.

A Spoilers section decides what the keys may tell you before the game would: gift tastes (everything, only the tastes you have discovered, or nothing), heart events, whether fish you have never caught show as ???, whether the never-shipped list is shown, whether villager keys say where the villager is right now, and whether the Mines key counts the ore on your floor (off unless you turn it on).

Six keys from the Cheats page: the Cheats key, add 10,000 gold, full energy, a frozen clock, rain tomorrow, and a warp to the desert. — The Cheats page, only once *Enable cheats* is on in the mod. It is off by default.

8. What it can and cannot do

The mod listens on 127.0.0.1 only: nothing outside your computer can connect to it.
It reads what the game already shows you, and the keys only do what you could do yourself: open menus, pick a toolbar slot, zoom, change the volume, take a screenshot, and keep your to-do list. Nothing is written to your save.
Cheats are off by default. If you turn on Enable cheats in the mod's settings, a Cheats page can add gold, refill energy, freeze the clock, move time forward, set tomorrow's weather, grow or water every crop, and warp: the same things CJB Cheats Menu does. Until then every cheat key says cheats off.
Heart events are checked with the game's own rules; the key says who and where, never what happens.
It does not go online, and the plugin's log never records your farm, farmer or villagers.

Troubleshooting

The key says	What it means
game not running	The game is closed, or started without SMAPI, or the mod is not in `Mods`
on title screen	Load a save
update the mod / update the plugin	The two versions do not match; update the older one
not now	The farmer cannot open a menu right now, such as during a cutscene or festival
actions are off	`AllowActions` is false in the mod's `config.json`; information still works

If another program already uses port 52817, change Port in the mod's config.json and Mod port in any key's Settings to match.

Frequently asked

Does it work in multiplayer?

Yes, for your own farmer: each player can run the mod and plugin on their own computer. Farm counts cover the shared farm; friendships, gifts and to-dos are your own. The Players key shows who is online, where they are and who is already in bed.

Will it spoil gift tastes?

Only if you ask: a villager's gifts appear when you press their key.

Is it made by ConcernedApe?

No. Stardew Deck is an unofficial fan project, not affiliated with or endorsed by ConcernedApe. Stardew Valley is a trademark of ConcernedApe. Every icon is original pixel art made for the plugin.
