Utilities

ConfigData

Used for automatic generation of config translation keys. Traverses config classes and their annotations via readConfigClass, automatically adding translation keys to the language provider.

ConfigData.readConfigClass(languageProvider, ExampleConfig.class);

Generated Translation Key Types

Purpose	Translation Key Format
Config title	<modid>.configuration.title
TOML title	<modid>.configuration.section.<modid>.<type>.toml
Option name	<modid>.configuration.<fieldpath>
Option tooltip	<modid>.configuration.<fieldpath>.tooltip (when @Comment is present)
Collapse button text	<modid>.configuration.<fieldpath>.button (when @CollapsibleObject is present)

All key values are generated as human-readable names by FormattingUtil.

Translation Example

// In data generation
@SubscribeEvent
public static void gatherData(GatherDataEvent.Client event) {
    event.getGenerator().addProvider(true, new LanguageProvider(
        event.getGenerator().getPackOutput(), "mymod", "en_us"
    ) {
        @Override
        protected void addTranslations() {
            ConfigData.readConfigClass(this, MyConfig.class);
        }
    });
}

FormattingUtil

String formatting utility for converting Java naming conventions to human-readable formats.

Methods

Method	Input	Output	Description
toLowerCaseUnder(str)	"maragingSteel300"	"maraging_steel_300"	camelCase to lowercase_underscore
toEnglishName(str)	"apple_orange.juice"	"Apple Orange (Juice)"	Underscore/dot to English name

Usage Examples

// camelCase -> lowercase_underscore
String key = FormattingUtil.toLowerCaseUnder("maxSpeed");
// -> "max_speed"

// lowercase_underscore -> English display name
String name = FormattingUtil.toEnglishName("max_speed");
// -> "Max Speed"

ConfigData internally uses these methods to automatically convert field names into readable translation values.
