## About

It's a fabric mod which allows you to add/change JSON crafting/cooking/etc. recipes to use nbt input and output.

Everything is kept nicely visualized in the vanilla gui.

This can be achieved through the now reintroduced data attribute.

For more information see [the wiki pages](https://mcwiki.siphalor.de/nbt-crafting/v2).

You may want to use this mod with [Cotton](https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/cotton) since this enables you to load datapacks globally and to remove unwanted recipes.

## Extras :)

Nbt Crafting also gives you the ability to add new brewing recipes and enables you to add cauldron and anvil recipes. See [the wiki]((https://mcwiki.siphalor.de/nbt-crafting/v2)) for an explanation of these features.

Due to some additions made with this mod the recipe book displays also the output amount of all recipes - yay!

 
## Server Usage

This mod works also server-side only. This causes minor cosmetic issues at the client side.

## Example

A simple recipe to get a cool "Battle Axe" of a diamond and a diamond sword with less than 41 damage.

```json
{
  "type": "crafting_shapeless",
  "ingredients": [
    {
      "item": "minecraft:diamond_sword",
      "data": {
        "require": {
          "Damage": "$..40"
        }
      }
    },
    { "item": "minecraft:diamond" }
  ],
  "result": {
    "item": "minecraft:diamond_axe",
    "data": {
      "display": {
        "Name": "{\"text\":\"Battle Axe\"}"
      },
      "Enchantments": [
         {
           "id": "minecraft:sharpness",
           "lvl": 10
         }
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## Mod support

Every mod which is based on the default vanilla recipe system and which uses the Ingredient class should be compatible in terms of input nbt matching.
