Silicate

Silicate

Silicate (or “silly predicates”) is a library that provides powerful client-server-agnostic predicates with a simple API.

Important

This library is new; use it with caution. The API may change frequently, and not all features have been implemented.
Check the issue tracker for updates.

Usage

Add this to your build.gradle(.kts)

repositories {
	exclusiveContent {
		forRepositories(
			maven("https://maven.greenhouse.lgbt/releases") {
				name = "Greenhouse"
			}
		)
		filter { includeGroup("lgbt.greenhouse.silicate") }
	}
}

dependencies {
	// If using multiloader, use each platform as below for silicate in their respective modules
	compileOnly("net.modgarden.silicate:silicate-xplat:VERSION")
	runtimeOnly("net.modgarden.silicate:silicate-PLATFORM:VERSION")
	// If using multiloader, put this in your "common" module
	// compileOnly("net.modgarden.silicate:silicate-xplat:VERSION")
}

Goal

The goal of Silicate is to complete a context-aware predicate system on par with Minecraft’s Loot Context-aware predicates. Available for Fabric and NeoForge, Silicate provides a common API for interfacing advanced predicates between mods, across platforms. Silicate achieves this by implementing a clean-slate predicate architecture, initially independent of Minecraft.

Features

Silicate provides out-of-the-box Codec and datapack support, enabling developers and modpack designers to more easily implement and configure desired behavior. Silicate also comes with built-in predicates for Minecraft’s various game interactions, easing the amount of boilerplate necessary.
