About this project
What does Asphodel API add?
Asphodel API
Asphodel API is a multiloader/multiversion API designed by Cassian to simplify long-term maintenance of their mods.
Asphodel API does not contain any content on its own. It should only be installed if you have a mod that depends on it, including any of these mods.
Yes, this is another moddername library. I work on over 50 mods at this point spread across a variety of versions, and every library I contribute code to keeps discontinuing versions I have to maintain or isn't available for snapshots. Having a published version allows for my mods that use universal JARs to depend on Asphodel API rather than have to unnecessarily upload two JARs with otherwise identical content, and allows users to update the mod directly.
Features
- Simplified block/item registration.
- Universal interface for retrieving an object's
Identifier. - A lightweight deferred registration implementation for easily porting mods away from Forge.
- Multiversion-friendly block and item tag data generators.
- Common code-friendly implementation of the common tags.
- APIs for detecting items in containers and accessory mods, see Immersive Overlays and Immersive Minimaps.
