The plugin allows you to define custom items either in it&#8217;s own plugin configuration or register your items externally using the API. <\/p>\n<p>### Features<br \/>\nThis plugin&#8217;s primary purpose is to allow you to:<br \/>\n&#8211; Define recipes\/conversions to create custom items by interacting with stations (plans to integrate MythicMobs\/Crucible)<br \/>\n&#8211; Define custom items in-configuration as well as register items externally<\/p>\n<p>Example Usage:<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/aLXckUpuREM\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>### Usage<br \/>\nDefining an item in-configuration can be done like so:<\/p>\n<p>item.yml<br \/>\n&#8220;`<br \/>\ntest:<br \/>\n    material: DIAMOND<br \/>\n    display-name: <#000000>This is a test item!<br \/>\n    item-model: minecraft:stone<br \/>\n&#8220;`<br \/>\nNote: all text-based fields such as display-name, or lore can use MiniMessage format.<\/p>\n<p>You can inherit properties additively by using the key &#8216;inherits&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;`<br \/>\ntest2:<br \/>\n    display-name: <#0000ff>This is the second test item!<br \/>\n    inherits: test<br \/>\n&#8220;`<\/p>\n<p>Defining a recipe: <\/p>\n<p>a) Recipes accept item keys in the format <namespace>:<key> for output, or the keys of the items section. <namespace> is optional, as the plugin will infer if the key is a member of the minecraft namespace it will default to that, an example is given in the recipe under &#8216;test.output&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>b) Alternatively, if you want to specify a registered item from a specific namespace, e.g. smaug, you can refer to it either by test, or smaug:test if there is a conflict with a key in another namespace.<\/p>\n<p>c) Recipes also allow for forward references, as this is the only way currently to register a recipe, meaning, the recipe expects that the item referenced will be present in the registry at the time the recipe is parsed. <\/p>\n<p>recipe.yml<br \/>\n&#8220;`<br \/>\ntest:<br \/>\n  output: gold_ingot # a)<br \/>\n  amount: 2 # output amount<br \/>\n  actions: 10 # optional, defaults to 0<br \/>\n  ingredients:<br \/>\n    items:<br \/>\n      #item_key: amount<br \/>\n      test2: 2<br \/>\n      test_hammer: 9<br \/>\n  type: smaug:anvil #station type<br \/>\n&#8220;`<\/p>\n<p>### Links<br \/>\n&#8211; Support for the plugin and it&#8217;s API are available on discord.
