Fabric Yaml Configuration library mod
This modification allows you to use yaml configuration files as a configuration for your mod. The modification already includes the snakeyaml library.
FabricConfiguration methods
// Sets the path to the final configuration
setFile(File file)
setFile(String file)
// Sets the stream of the original configuration file
// as a rule the original configuration is located in the mod resources.
setDefault(InputStream defaultConfigurationFile)
// Initializes the configuration
intialize()
// Saves the configuration to a file
saveConfiguration()
// Reloads the configuration from the file
// needed to update the configuration during mod operation.
relaodConfiguration()
Simple configuration example
assets/example-mod/config/example-mod.yml
# Тестовая ветка
test:
integer: 1
double: 1.1
string: 'test'
list:
- 'test-1'
- 'test-2'
- 'test-3'
section:
test: 'test'
public class ExampleMod implements ModInitializer {
public static final Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger();
public FabricConfiguration configuration = new FabricConfiguration();
@Override
public void onInitialize() {
// Getting default configuration file from mod assets
InputStream defaultConfigurationFile = ExampleMod.class.getResourceAsStream("/assets/example-mod/config/example-mod.yml");
// Setting default configuration file to configuration
configuration.setDefault(defaultConfigurationFile);
// Setting configuration file path
configuration.setFile("config/example-mod.yml");
// Initialize configuration (load, if file exists else generate configuration)
try {
configuration.initialize();
} catch (IOException e) {
LOGGER.error("Configuration file cannot be generated", e);
} catch (InvalidConfigurationException e) {
LOGGER.error("Configuration file cannot be loaded", e);
}
}
}
Example code (save and get ItemStack from/to configuration)
ItemStack exampleItemStack = new ItemStack(Items.BEDROCK);
NbtCompound itemStackNbt = exampleItemStack.writeNbt(new NbtCompound());
configuration.set("item-stack", NbtHelper.toNbtProviderString(itemStackNbt));
try {
configuration.saveConfiguration();
} catch (IOException e) {
LOGGER.error("Configuration cannot be saved", e);
}
ItemStack itemStack = null;
try {
itemStack = ItemStack.fromNbt(NbtHelper.fromNbtProviderString(configuration.getString("item-stack")));
} catch (CommandSyntaxException e) {
LOGGER.error("ItemStack cannot be loaded from configuration", e);
}
