Patchouli Mod

Patchouli Is a mod that allows for the easy creation of documentation for mods, mod packs, data packs, and more. The mod is named after a plant but does not have all that much in common with the plant, but instead is one of the most common mods for providing easy-to-access documentation for mods in a data-driven way that can easily work on Both Minecraft Forge and Fabric/Quilt with the same or similar data. There is no Java code required.


The main way the documentation is given to the player is by books which often are given to them at spawn. The documentation books are often highly intractable if done well, allowing the player to click on various elements and get taken to a new place. Many of the features are influenced by Botania's Lexica Botania. The documentation also supports Macros and unlockable documentation. Many templates help you make advanced page types for your documentation. Patchouli is very well documented and has a great wiki for helping you make your documentation. Patchouli exists for both Minecraft Forge and Fabric/Quilt and is used by many of the largest mods, including:

• Apotheosis (and add-ons)
• Ars Nouveau (and addons)
• Blood magic
• Bewitchment (Legacy)
• Botania
• Blood Smeltery
• Conjuring
• Crockpot
• And many more
  Not all mods require Patchouli installed, but many do, at least officially. Even if a mod does not require Patchouli, it is good for mod pack makers who want to document various parts of their pack. It integrates with many mods and is by far one of the most common documentation mods.
