Hey!

So I recently updated my mod to 1.12.2. Now, I know there is this new efficient way of registering Items and Blocks via the Registry Events, but I'm not too sure how you do that...

This is what I currently have:

	public static void registerItem(Item item)
	{
		item.setCreativeTab(Dinocraft.ITEMS);
		ForgeRegistries.ITEMS.register(item);
		Utils.getLogger().info("Registered item: " + item.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));
	}
	
	public static void registerRender(Item item) 
	{
		ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(new ResourceLocation(Reference.MODID, item.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5)), "inventory"));
		Utils.getLogger().info("Registered render for " + item.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5));
	}

	public static void register() 
	{
		//Food
		registerItem(POTATOSHROOM_PIE);
		registerItem(CHUNKY_FLESH);
		//Material
		registerItem(CHLOROPHYTE_INGOT);
		registerItem(FLOBBER_INGOT);
		registerItem(SHEEPLITE_INGOT);
		registerItem(PEBBLES);
		registerItem(CRACKED_PEBBLES);
		registerItem(LEAF);
		registerItem(BLEVENT_INGOT);
		registerItem(RANIUM);
		registerItem(PEBBELONEUM);
		//?
		registerItem(TUSKERERS_HEART);
		registerItem(TUSKERERS_CHARM);
		
		//WIP
		registerItem(VINE_BALL);
		registerItem(SLINGSHOT);
		registerItem(VINE_BALL_BUNDLE);
		registerItem(POISON_BALL);
		registerItem(POISON_BEATLER);
		registerItem(RAY_BULLET);
		registerItem(RAY_GUN);
	}
	
	public static void registerRenders() 
	{
		//Food
		registerRender(POTATOSHROOM_PIE);
		registerRender(CHUNKY_FLESH);
		//Material
		registerRender(CHLOROPHYTE_INGOT);
		registerRender(FLOBBER_INGOT);
		registerRender(SHEEPLITE_INGOT);
		registerRender(PEBBLES);
		registerRender(CRACKED_PEBBLES);
		registerRender(LEAF);
		registerRender(BLEVENT_INGOT);
		registerRender(RANIUM);
		registerRender(PEBBELONEUM);
		//?
		registerRender(TUSKERERS_HEART);
		registerRender(TUSKERERS_CHARM);
		
		//WIP
		registerRender(VINE_BALL);
		registerRender(SLINGSHOT);
		registerRender(VINE_BALL_BUNDLE);
		registerRender(POISON_BALL);
		registerRender(POISON_BEATLER);
		registerRender(RAY_BULLET);
		registerRender(RAY_GUN);
	}

I mean this works and does the job perfectly fine, but I heard that the recommended way of registering it is by using the registry events.

Any help is welcome.

Thanks!

Well, that's wrong, obviously.

 

You want to register with events?

 

Write an event handler.

So it's just as simple as this?:
 

@SubscribeEvent
public void registerBlocks(RegistryEvent.Register<Block> event) 
{
    event.getRegistry().registerAll(block1, block2, ...);
}

 

Yes
