I know everyone is telling to use the new json recipes, but i don't like it actually. It is frustrating to create all those files 1 by 1 .....

Instead i would like to do it in code, for now. I might eventually switch.

I wonder if this is the right way to register recipes now in code:

	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void registerRecipes(RegistryEvent.Register<IRecipe> event) {
		
		//adding recipe for clay bucket
		GameRegistry.addShapedRecipe(new ResourceLocation(Reference.MODID + ":" + "clay_bucket"), 
					     new ResourceLocation(Reference.MODID + ":" + "buckets"), 
					     new ItemStack(ItemInit.CLAY_BUCKET), 
					     new Object[] {"B B","B B", "BBB", 'B', new ItemStack(Items.CLAY_BALL)});
	}

No. Use JSON files. You can generate them automatically if you want.

Do not register recipes in code.

Automatically? Sounds good. Where and how?

Also why not in code? I mean not that i disagree, just want to know why?

Ok but what about oredictionary? If i was going to add more wood types, for example "apple_planks". How would i register it as "planks"?

Does this still has to be done in code?

Aha, so is that what the "group" is meant for? :

{
  "type": "crafting_shaped",
  "group": "boat",
  "pattern": [
    "# #",
    "###"
  ],
  "key": {
    "#": {
      "item": "minecraft:planks",
      "data": 4
    }
  },
  "result": {
    "item": "minecraft:acacia_boat"
  }
}
