Fake Fabric API

NOTE: This is a technical mod and WILL NOT replace Fabric API.

Please install Fabric API before installing this mod.

If you’re playing Minecraft 1.19.2+, maybe you don’t need this.

Anyway, you don’t need to understand these below – all you need to do is to install this mod if required or you’re noticed to install `fake-fabric-api`.

Since Fabric API 0.59.0+1.19.2, Mod ID of Fabric API is changed from `fabric` to `fabric-api`, and provides the Mod ID `fabric`. This is because many Fabric newcomers don’t know `fabric` is Fabric API, and getting confused when they meet an error saying “`fabric` isn’t installed”.

However, this change is only applied to 1.19.2+, which means players below 1.19.1 might still be confused.

The only thing this mod does, is providing the mod ID `fabric-api`. Moreover, this mod can’t run without Fabric API.

Note: this mod crashes with MC-1.19.2-based Fabric API / Quilted Fabric API, because the latter has already provided `fabric-api`.

How to use this mod (for Fabric/Quilt Mod developers):

• If your mod depends on Fabric API, and runs below 1.19.1, please set its dependencies as BOTH `fake-fabric-api: *` and `fabric-api`, and don’t set `fabric`. This is to make players not confused.
• If your mod depends on Fabric API, and runs across <1.19.2 and ≥1.19.2, please set its dependency as `fabric-api`, as `fake-fabric-api` does not run above 1.19.2.
• If your mod is a Quilt mod, directly set dependency as `quilted_fabric_api` – maybe you don’t need this mod.
