🧩 Getting Started
Add this to your build.gradle.kts:
repositories {
maven { url = uri("https://repo.essential.gg/public") }
mavenCentral()
maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
}
dependencies {
modImplementation("com.github.Eclipse-5214:nova-config:1.0.1")
}
And in fabric.mod.json:
"depends": {
"nova-config": "*"
}
JitPack supports version tags and commit hashes—use
1.0.1or later for the stable DSL.
🛠 Example
val config = NovaApi.createConfig("example", "yourmodid") {
category("General") {
toggle {
configName = "enabled"
name = "Enable Feature"
description = "Toggle a feature on or off"
default = true
}
colorpicker {
configName = "themeColor"
name = "Theme Color"
description = "Pick your favorite hue"
default = rgba(255, 255, 255, 255)
}
}
}
To access:
val config = NovaApi["example"]
val isEnabled = config as Boolean ?: false
val themeColor = (config as RGBA).getColor("themeColor")
