JsonWrangler

# JsonWrangler *A tool for all your JSON-modifying needs* Quilt version requires: (https://modrinth.com/mod/qsl) and (https://modrinth.com/mod/groovyduvet) Forge version requires: (https://modrinth.com/mod/gml) JsonWrangler is a Minecraft mod which allows for the modification of game data and resources, as stored in JSON files, through groovy scripts which can be packaged in resource or data packs. ## Usage JsonWrangler should allow modification of basically any JSON file with a "winner takes all" behavior - for instance, loot tables, models, worldgen data, or animation metadata files. If JsonWrangler fails to wrangle a file that you think it should, please submit a bug report. If you wish to modify a file at a given path, say, `assets/minecraft/textures/block/magma.png.mcmeta` or `data/minecraft/loot_tables/chests/simple_dungeon.json`, you should create a groovy script at same path, but with a `.groovy` at the end - in this case, `assets/minecraft/textures/block/magma.png.mcmeta.groovy` or `data/minecraft/loot_tables/chests/simple_dungeon.json.groovy`. Inside of your groovy script, you are given several arguments, and must return a value which will replace the original JSON file. Valid values to return include maps, where map keys must be strings and values may be lists, maps, numbers, booleans, strings, or dates. In addition to normal groovy features, You have the following variables at your disposal inside your script: * `json` - the original JSON file, parsed into a map * `platform` - either `"quilt"` or `"forge"`, depending on which platform you are running on * `override` - a method which, if called, will cause any further scripts attempting to modify the same file to not run Multiple scripts in different datapacks or resource packs can target the same file - they are ran in order from highest priority (the "top" pack) to lowest priority (the "bottom" pack). If a script calls `override()`, no further scripts will run. ## Servers **Note:** As the groovy scripts that JsonWrangler loads can execute arbitrary code, JsonWrangler will not load scripts from server resource packs. If you wish to load scripts from a server resource pack, you will have to copy it as a local resource pack first. ## Examples ### Changing the texture of an item Placing the following file at `assets/minecraft/models/item/apple.json.groovy` will change the texture of the apple to use the potato texture: ```groovy json?.textures?.layer0 = 'minecraft:item/potato' return json ```
