[1.15.2] How to make a JSON reader

[BlockyPenguin]

Hi! So I'd like to add a new "type" of json file to modid/assets (EDIT: actually modid/data. Sorry). Obviously I know how to create folders and files, but how would I get my mod to read it? I've had a look at IRecipe, but I'm still not 100% sure how it gets called, etc.

Yeah, it's like more recipes, except it's information that a mod can specify about it's item, so I can't use a recipe serializer.

Ah ok, thank you, I'll take a look

So I've created something that should work, but how exactly do I register it?

EDIT: Looking at other classes, I feel like I'd need to create my own registry. Am I correct?

To register the JsonReloadListener, you simply need to register it as a resource reload listener using addReloadListener.

Sorry if it's obvious, but what class does addReloadListener belong to?

IReloadableReloadListener

That class doesn't exist... The closest I found is IReloadableResourceManager, which eclipse can't seem to see any methods in.

 

IReloadableResourceManager is an interface, so that would be why. What do I do?

 

EDIT: About the shortcuts, I'll have a look at mine

So, I've found
Minecraft.getInstance().getResourceManager(),
which returns resourceManager which is an IReloadableResourceManager. However,it returns it as an IResourceManager, which does not have the addReloadListener method. I've also found
MinecraftServer.getResourceManager(),
which does return an IReloadableResourceManager. I can get it using
Minecraft.getInstance().getIntegratedServer().getResourceManager().
Would this work on singleplayer though?

Ok, thank you very much!
