Json Entity Animation

# Json Entity Animation

Json Entity Animation (JsonEA) for short is a library mod for other mods to be able to define animations through JSON instead of through code. (animation_to_jsonea.js) (also available in the Blockbench plugins browser) is also provided in order to export your animations to this format.

## For developers

Add the mod as a dependency using the (https://docs.modrinth.com/docs/tutorials/maven).

```gradle dependencies { include(modImplementation("maven.modrinth:json-entity-animation:0. 2. 1+1. 19. 4")) } ```

Once added, put your animation JSONs in the `assets/modid/jsonea` directory. To load the animations, your entity model must subclass `SinglePartEntityModel`/`HierarchicalModel`. Then define a `JsonAnimator` field and animation IDs.

```java public class MyEntityModel extends SinglePartEntityModel { private static final Identifier PUNCH_ANIMATION = new Identifier("modid", "my_entity/punch"); private final JsonAnimator animator = new JsonAnimator(this); // ... @Override public void setAngles(MyEntity entity, float limbAngle, float limbDistance, float animationProgress, float headYaw, float headPitch) { getPart().traverse().forEach(ModelPart::resetTransform); animator.animate(entity.punchState, PUNCH_ANIMATION, animationProgress); } } ```
