This is an api for one of my other mod client-tweaks.

It allows the server to summon box outlines from client-tweaks for a tick to those with both mods installed.

Usage

Commands

/boxoutline 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 red

this draws a box for a single tick from 0 0 0 to 1 1 1. Be aware that box outlines api, unlike client tweaks, uses decimals for the coordinates.

Java Code

first publish this mod's source code to your local maven

# clone the repo git clone [email protected]:Spit365/box-outlines-api-1.21.6.git # publish to maven cd box-outlines-api-1.21.6 ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

then include Box Outlines Api in your mod

build.gradle:

repositories { mavenLocal() } dependencies { modImplementation("net.spit365:box-outlines-api:1.0.0") }

fabric.mod.json:

"depends": { "client-tweaks": "*" }

Finally, you can use the following methods in your mod:

import net.spit365.boa.BoxOutline; import net.minecraft.util.math.Box; import java.util.Collection; BoxOutline.add(Box box, int color /* argb */) BoxOutline.addAll(Collection<Box> box, int color /* argb */)

This acts the same way, first specify a box, and then a color in hexadecimal format (0xFFFF0000 -> red, full opacity). Again, this will persist a single tick, so for continuous rendering put it in a tick callback

Building

to build this mod from scratch, first clone both this mod's and client-tweaks' repositories. Then, in the directory of client-tweaks run

./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

This will publish it to your local maven. Then run

./gradlew build

in the box outlines api directory

Why this extra step before building? Box Outlines Api needs the source code of client-tweaks available to compile. I did not set up a global maven, hosting client-tweaks, so you need to do it locally.
