This tool helps to create Modget Manifests, which is used by the mod Modget. Modget Create (or MGC for short) is NOT perfect, but will aid greatly in the amount of effort needed to contribute.
First off, thank you so much for wanting to contribute to Modget in the form of manifests. To get started, start by downloading the latest .jar file in releases.
Important Note: MGC is currently in development, and is only partially complete.
Join us on Discord to learn how you can help to beta test MGC!
Next up, ensure that you have Java 11 or higher on your computer. Launch the .jar file in your terminal/command prompt like this:
java -jar </path/to/jar>.
Once MGC starts up, you can view all MGC commands by using the ? command.
MGC has a feature where it will help you automatically PR your changes. However, this requires the access of your GitHub via oAuth to do so. With your authorization, MGC will:
- Fork Modget Manifests
- Create a new branch for the manifest
- Push all changes to the branch
- Open a PR to the main Modget Manifests repo
If you want to compile the file from source, it is really easy to do so! Open your terminal/command prompt and enter these few commands.
git clone https://github.com/ReviversMC/modget-create.git
cd modget-create
On Windows, continue with this command.
gradlew.bat :modget-create-cli:shadowJar
On macOS or Linux distros, use these commands instead.
chmod +x gradlew
./gradlew :modget-create-:cli:shadowJar
Finally, to launch modget-create:
cd build
cd libs
java -jar <name/of/jar>
