Developers

Add the modrinth maven repository to your build.gradle.

repositories {
    // There might be other repos there too, just add it at the end
    maven { url "https://api.modrinth.com/maven" }
}

Declare vanish as an optional dependency!

dependencies {
    // You will have other dependencies here too
    modCompileOnly "maven.modrinth:vanish:[VERSION]"
}

Before using the API you need to make sure the mod is actually loaded, by checking FabricLoader.getInstance().isModLoaded("melius-vanish");.
If the mod is present you can use VanishAPI and VanishEvents to integrate your own mods.

Datapacks

Datapacks can use an entity predicate like vanish:visible
to check if an entity is vanished. You should add this predicate to your datapack and use it to check whether a player
can be seen by other players (in respect to vanish). It is designed to return true when the vanish mod is not installed
to stay compatible with vanilla.
