Auto Config Updated API Mod Wiki & Guide
Auto Config Updated API is a powerful, annotation-based configuration library for Minecraft mods that automates the creation of complex in-game GUI screens through integration with the Cloth Config API.
Overview
Auto Config Updated API is a developer-centric library mod designed to streamline the process of creating configuration files and their corresponding in-game menus. Originally a fork of the Auto Config API by sargunv, this "Updated" version is maintained by shedaniel to ensure compatibility with modern Minecraft versions (1.19.2, 1.20.1, and beyond).
Unlike standard mods that add gameplay content, Auto Config Updated API serves as a backend framework. It allows modders to define a simple Java class representing their configuration data and use annotations to automatically generate a professional, user-friendly GUI. It is a mandatory dependency for many popular mods, particularly those within the Shedaniel ecosystem, such as Roughly Enough Items (REI) and Cloth Config.
