Patchouli Books

Welcome to Patchouli Books! This is an add-on for the Patchouli mod that adds various books for different mods, trying to document them as best as possible. Furthermore there are a few more QoL features I have in mind. This mod will only ever exist for 1.12.2 as I currently have no interest in doing anything on the newer versions of Minecraft. If you want to take a look at the things I encountered while working on this project, feel free to check out my project notes. Furthermore I made none of the art this mods uses. All the art used is either from Patchouli or sourced from various repositories. I’ve compiled a list of all the sources here together with the original authors and their respective licenses.

Stuff I have already implemented:

• added HEI/JEI integration (you can now open JEI for every item rendered inside a book using the same keybind as for JEI)
• improved JEI integration (relevant books will now show next to the recipe)
• backported Pamphlets from the 1.18 version of Patchouli (needs to be enabled in the config)
• backported PatchouliButton with a few more features
• new Page Types (an iteration of most of the existing ones as well as a new custom one for PedestalCrafting/ExtendedCrafting)
• of course a Patchouli Book explaining the features of this mod
• documentation for various mods (their respective books will only be loaded if the mod is present)

Stuff I may work on in the future:

• backporting PatchouliQuests
• implement the “inventory-scanning-to-open-a-book-entry” thing from Botania
• add new page types (e.g. Boss Info)  

These mods are currently documented in this mod within their own books:

• Gendustry
• MoarBoats
• Pressure Pipes
• Thermal Logistics

This list may seem a bit obscure as there aren’t any big mods listed yet. This is because this project started with a few book I already made myself for my own modpack and these were already done before starting this. The list will most certainly grow in the future. Furthermore, I greatly appreciate any help with this project. If you’re interested in helping me out, feel free to contact me on Discord or create an issue on this repository.
