JEI Item/Fluid descriptions in a simple JSON format
Inspired by a tweet by Vazkii which reminded me I can code and I wanted a mod like this for a while.
This is a FORGE mod. May look into fabric later given how simple this mod is, but forge only for now.
Create JSON files in the /config/jeidescs/ folder.
You can create multiple files, and they will be loaded in alphabetical order for consistancy.
Make an array[] under the entries tag.
The entry format contains an item or fluid tag specifying one or more item/fluid
For the item or fluid, you can either specify a regular id or a #tag id
You can also specify an amount tag for the item count or fluid amount (in mb, or 1/1000 of a bucket)
Then, you specify the description to add to the given resource.
text: A shortcut for raw text, simple as that
translate: A shortcut for using a translation key, allowing localization of the descriptions
component: Writing a fully functional component, just like the ones used on signs or in /tellraw. Use the extra tag to add multiple components to one line, with the extra components being directly added to the end of the component containing them. You can also write an array[] of components as a shortcut for the first component with all others in the array as its' extra tag. Do note that JEI does not support special hover or click events, so even though they can be specified they will have no effect.
(New in 1.1.0) For quick and compact entries, make an items or fluids tag, allowing you to enter one or more resource/tag ids (seperated with commas) as a key and a valid component as a value. (EX: "Text", ["A", "B", {"text":"C"}], {"translate": "translation.key.here"})
