- Add a check to ensure declared dependencies in the :core project, and
those inherited from Minecraft are the same.
- Compute the next Cobalt version, rather than specifying it manually.
- Add the gradle versions plugin (and version catalog update), and
update some versions.
Historically we've used copy-cat to provide a web-based emulator for
running example code on our documentation site. However, copy-cat is
often out-of-date with CC:T, which means example snippets fail when you
try to run them!
This commit vendors in copy-cat (or rather an updated version of it)
into CC:T itself, allowing us to ensure the emulator is always in sync
with the mod.
While the ARCHITECTURE.md documentation goes into a little bit more
detail here, the general implementation is as follows
- In project/src/main we implement the core of the emulator. This
includes a basic reimplementation of some of CC's classes to work on
the web (mostly the HTTP API and ComputerThread), and some additional
code to expose the computers to Javascript.
- This is all then compiled to Javascript using [TeaVM][1] (we actually
use a [personal fork of it][2] as there's a couple of changes I've
not upstreamed yet).
- The Javascript side then pulls in the these compiled classes (and
the CC ROM) and hooks them up to [cc-web-term][3] to display the
actual computer.
- As we're no longer pulling in copy-cat, we can simplify our bundling
system a little - we now just compile to ESM modules directly.

- Move the frontend code into src/frontend
- Move our custom element SSR system into src/htmlTransform.
This is mostly in prep for merging in copy-cat's core, as that's a whole
bunch of extra code.
This adds SPDX license headers to all source code files, following the
REUSE[1] specification. This does not include any asset files (such as
generated JSON files, or textures). While REUSE does support doing so
with ".license" files, for now we define these licences using the
.reuse/dep5 file.

- Add a new ClientJavaExec Gradle task, which is used for client-side
tests. This:
- Copies the exec spec from another JavaExec task.
- Sets some additional system properties to configure on gametest framework.
- Runs Java inside an X framebuffer (when available), meaning we
don't need to spin up a new window.
We also configure this task so that only one instance can run at
once, meaning we don't spawn multiple MC windows at once!
- Port our 1.16 client test framework to 1.19. This is mostly the same
as before, but screenshots no longer do a golden test: they /just/
write to a folder. Screenshots are compared manually afterwards.
This is still pretty brittle, and there's a lot of sleeps scattered
around in the code. It's not clear how well this will play on CI.
- Roll our own game test loader, rather than relying on the mod loader
to do it for us. This ensures that loading is consistent between
platforms (we already had to do some hacks for Forge) and makes it
easier to provide custom logic for loading client-only tests.
- Run several client tests (namely those involving monitor rendering)
against Sodium and Iris too. There's some nastiness here to set up
new Loom run configurations and automatically configure Iris to use
Complementary Shaders, but it's not too bad. These tests /don't/ run
on CI, so it doesn't need to be as reliable.
This fixes several issues I had with consuming multi-loader CC:T in
various upstream mods.
- Include /all/ sources in the Forge/Fabric jar. Before it was just the
common classes, and not the core or API.
- Use some Gradle magic to remove superfluous dependencies from the POM
file. Also make sure Cobalt and Netty are present as dependencies.
- Start using minimize() in our shadow jar config again.
After several weeks of carefully arranging ribbons, we pull the string
and end up with, ... a bit of a messy bow. There were still some things
I'd missed.
- Split the mod into a common (vanilla-only) project and Forge-specific
project. This gives us room to add Fabric support later on.
- Split the project into main/client source sets. This is not currently
statically checked: we'll do that soon.
- Rename block/item/tile entities to use suffixes rather than prefixes.
This adds two new modules: common-api and forge-api, which contain the
common and Forge-specific interfaces for CC's Minecraft-specific API.
We add a new PlatformHelper interface, which abstracts over some of the
loader-specific functionality, such as reading registries[^1] or calling
Forge-specific methods. This interface is then implemented in the main
mod, and loaded via ServiceLoaders.
Some other notes on this:
- We now split shared and client-specific source code into separate
modules. This is to make it harder to reference client code on the
server, thus crashing the game.
Eventually we'll split the main mod up too into separate source sets
- this is, of course, a much bigger problem!
- There's currently some nastiness here due to wanting to preserve
binary compatibility of the API. We'll hopefully be able to remove
this when 1.19.3 releases.
- In order to build a separate Forge-specific API jar, we compile the
common sources twice: once for the common jar and once for the Forge
jar.
Getting this to play nicely with IDEs is a little tricky and so we
provide a cct.inlineProject(...) helper to handle everything.
[^1]: We /can/ do this with vanilla's APIs, but it gives a lot of
deprecation warnings. It just ends up being nicer to abstract over it.
This is a little odd (it's more complex for one!), but means we can
reuse the internal API interface in other classes, which is useful for
the data provider refactor I'm about to do.
This is much nicer in Java 17 :D (records, ServiceLoader.stream()),
but such is the perils of still targetting 1.16.
