# AddonAPI<\/p>\n
**AddonAPI** is a library mod that provides an API for dynamically loading objects in addon mods based on the mods loaded by Forge. If a target mod is not loaded, only the extension elements related to that mod are excluded, allowing Minecraft to launch safely.<\/p>\n
## Supported Version
\n– Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1<\/p>\n
## Main Features
\n– Dynamically loads registered modules according to the ModList.
\n– Adds a `compat` section to addon configs, which can be configured per target mod.
\n– Provides a recipe condition that determines whether to load a recipe based on the `compat` config.
\n– Includes a template Mixin plugin for detecting mod load status.<\/p>\n
## Creating Modules
\n1. Create a module class by extending `AddonModule`.
\n2. Create a module provider by extending `AddonModuleProvider` and calling `addRawModules()` within the `registerRawModules()` method.
\n3. Call `AddonModuleRegistry.INSTANCE.LoadModule()` in the **constructor of your addon**.<\/p>\n
## Using `compat` Settings
\nIn data pack recipes, use the following format:<\/p>\n
“`json
\n{
\n “type”: “YOUR_RECIPE_TYPE”,
\n “conditions”: [
\n {
\n “type”: “addonlib:mods_available”,
\n “required_raw_module”: “YOUR_RAW_ADDON_MODULE_NAME”
\n }
\n ],
\n …
\n}
