I need help with installing a library. I know how to install a library in normal java and maven, but I'm now sure how to do it in forge. My best guess is something with build.gradle? But I don't know. The library I want to install is Jsoup, to check if a new version is available for my mod by checking my website.

The actual downloading of libraries can be done through the build.gradle file, but if you need the library to be installed for your mod as a hard dependency then you're going to need to repackage it somehow.

Would it work to just add the jar to my build path? I'm guessing not.

What do mean by repackage? Take the code out of the jar and place it in my mod?

Thanks for the help!
