SilliestLib

build.gradle

We start in your build.gradle, where you add this as your repositories block.

repositories {
    exclusiveContent {
        forRepository {
            maven {
                name = "Modrinth"
                url = "https://api.modrinth.com/maven"
            }
        }
        filter {
            includeGroup "maven.modrinth"
        }
    }
}

Then, in dependencies block, you add this.

dependencies {
    // SilliestLib
    implementation "maven.modrinth:silliestlib:${project.silliestlib_version}"
}

gradle.properties

In your gradle.properties, you now need to add the mod version, this changes with every update to the mod, so make sure to change it to update SilliestLib.

silliestlib_version=5L5NiRdW

This is technically optional and can replace “${project.silliestlib_version}” in the build.gradle instead of being here, but is cleaner to do here.

fabric.mod.json

To make sure people can debug issues when SilliestLib is missing, remember to add the mod into the dependencies block, due to my versioning scheme not matching the semantic version format, make sure you have to version as “*” or it wont work :p

"depends": {
    "silliestlib": "*"
}

Your ModInitializer

Before you can start any modding, in the “onInitialize()” method of your ModInitializer you have to add one simple line.

SilliestLib.init(MOD_ID);

Alternatively, “MOD_ID” can be replaced with either a string of your modId or a call to where you store your modId.
