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.
