I was originally pretty sceptical about this, but it actually ends up
being useful for the same reason any other form of datagen is: we can
ensure that names are well formed, and that every string is actually
translated.
There's some future work here to go through all the custom translation
keys and move them into constants (maybe also do something with the
/computercraft command?), but that's a separate chunk of work.
The main motivation for this is to add translation keys to our config:
the Fabric version of Forge Config API provides a config UI, so it's
useful to provide user-friendly strings. Our generator also
automatically copies comments over, turning them into tooltips.
This also updates all of the other language files to match en_us.json
again: it's a very noisy diff as the file is now sorted alphabetically.
Hopefully this won't affect weblate though
[^1]: Amusing really that the Fabric port actually is more useful than
the original.
- Add support for Fabric. This is mostly pretty simple, though does
require a lot more mixins than Forge.
Half this diff is due to data generators: we run them separately as
some aspects (recipes mostly) are different between the loaders.
- Add integration with Iris (same as our Oculus support) and REI
(mostly the same as our JEI support).
- Generic peripherals only support inventories (or rather
InventoryStorage) right now. Supporting more of the Fabric storage
API is going to be tricky due to the slotted nature of the API: maybe
something to revisit after Transfer API V3 (V4?, I've lost track).
Note, this does /not/ mean I will be publishing a Fabric version of
CC:T. My plan is to rebase CC:R on top of this, hopefully simplifying
the maintenance work on their end and making the two mods a little more
consistent.
Look, I don't enjoy having 600 LOC long build.gradle files, it's just
very easy to do! This at least moves some of the complexity elsewhere,
so the build script is a little more declarative.
Previously illumainate required manual users to manually download it and
place it in ./bin/. This is both inconvenient for the user, and makes it
hard to ensure people are running the "right" version.
We now provide a small Gradle plugin which registers illuaminate as a
ependency, downloading the appropriate (now versioned!) file. This also
theoretically supports Macs, though I don't have access to one to test
this.
This enables the following changes:
- The Lua lint script has been converted to a Gradle task (./gradle
lintLua).
- illuaminateDocs now uses a task definition with an explicit output
directory. We can now consume this output as an input to another
task, and get a task dependency implicitly.
- Move the pre-commit config into the root of the tree. We can now use
the default GitHub action to run our hooks.
- Simplify CONTRIBUTING.md a little bit. Hopefully it's less
intimidating now.
Let's see how this goes.
- Update references to the new repo
- Use rrsync on the server, meaning make-doc.sh uploads relative to the
website root.
- Bump Gradle wrapper to 7.2. Not related to this change, but possibly
fixes running under Java 16. Possibly.
As always, a massive diff which is largely just moving files between
projects. This does fix a couple of issues with advancements, but
otherwise should behave the same.
Speaking of which, should probably go and test some of these recipes...
This uses pre-commit [1] to check patches are well formed and run
several linters on them. We currently do some boring things (check files
are syntactically valid) as well as some project-specific ones:
- Run illuaminate on the Lua files
- Run checkstyle on Java
[1]: https://pre-commit.com/
This is definitely going to break the build (it shouldn't, but these
things always do). Anyway...
- Use the new Java toolchain support, rather than requiring the user to
install multiple Java versions.
- Bump versions of several plugins.
We're sadly stuck on Gradle <7 for now, as they drop the old
maven-publish plugin, which drops SCP support.
- Remove stub for table.pack/table.unpack.
- Remove Lua 5.3 bitlib stub. We're not on 5.3, there's no
point emulating it.
- Change peripheral.call to correctly adjust the error level. This is a
terrible hack, but I believe the only good option.
It'd be good to remove load as well, but it's a little more complex due
to our injecting of _ENV.
Closes#363
Hopefully provides a /little/ more information about the build process.
Hey, also means I only need to add a CoC to complete GH's community tab!
In all seriousness, there's probably a lot more I need to flesh out
here, such as some kind of vision and guides for issues/PRs. But this at
least documents the local development process. Somewhat.
