About this project

What does ContainerSearcher add?

ContainerSearcher

Caches opened containers and allows you to search through them via an in-game menu.

When you open a chest, its contents are saved to a file.
Using a keybind (NUMPAD 5 by default, can be changed in your keybindings) you can open a menu that shows the contents of all chests opened while you had this mod, allowing you to search for items with different sorting modes.
Clicking on an item will highlight the container it's in, draw a particle trail, and make you look in the direction of that container; if you're close enough, the container will open directly.
Once inside the container, the items you clicked on will be highlighted.
You can also configure a keybind to search for a hovered item in your inventory in nearby containers, as the Extra Utilities mod does.

👉🏻 Requires Fabric API and Cloth Config.

Mod menu is recommended to configure the mod.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I change the mod's keybindings?

You can find them in your normal Minecraft keybindings, look for the Container Searcher section, usually under the Miscellaneous section.
You will find two configurable keybindings, one to open the search menu as mentioned above, and another to search for the hovered stack in nearby containers.
