❓ What is StewBeet

StewBeet is a Beet framework and library 📦 aiming to provide huge automation for creating Minecraft datapacks.
It is designed to be very simple to use and very convenient for developers.

Example of the in-game manual generated by StewBeet:

Here is a list of features that the package provides (the template is using all of them with clear comments):

• 🔄 Automatic resource pack files generation (models, textures, sounds, music discs) with the ability to override them with help of the assets folder.
• ⏳ Versioned load, and clock functions such as tick, second, minute.
• 🗃️ Loot tables for every item in the definitions along with a proper _give_all function that gives named chests.
• 📖 Automatic generation of a really advanced and interactive items manual.
• 📝 Automatic generation of a en-us.json lang file in the resource pack if configuration is set.
• 🖼️ Automatic headers for every function in function folders.
• 🔢 Automatic scoreboard constants generation: detects #{integer} namespace.data patterns across functions and generates initialization commands.
• 🍳 Multiple recipe types support: Vanilla, Smithed Crafter, Furnace, Pulverizer, and Awakened Forge recipes.
• 🖼️ Custom paintings support with author, title, and texture metadata.
• 🏗️ Item and Block Python classes for defining custom items and blocks with recipes, components, model overrides, manual categories, and more — registered automatically in Mem.definitions on instantiation. Block extends Item with vanilla block mapping, silk-touch drops, and growing seed support. Variants BlockAlternative (item frame) and BlockHead (player head) are also available.
• ➕ ScoreboardEquation and StorageEquation Python builder classes for generating chained scoreboard arithmetic commands with method chaining (set, add, subtract, multiply, divide, modulo) and standard Python operators (+, -, *, /, %). Handles int constants, macro arguments ($(foo)), and nested equations, outputting self-documenting commands with an auto-generated header comment.
• 📚 Official libraries integrations:
  • 🧪 Automatic support for NBT Recipes with Smithed Crafter and Furnace NBT Recipes
  • 🛠️ Placement and destruction for every custom block in the definitions with support for blockstates, ore drops (fortune, silk touch), with Smithed Custom Blocks.
  • 📚 Each module from Bookshelf is automatically added if you are using it, ex: function #bs.math:... will add the bs.math module to the datapack.
  • ⛏️ Custom ore generation with Smart Ore Generation.
  • 📦 Item transportation / container declaration with ItemIO when making custom containers.
  • 🔔 Events such as new items detection with Common Signals.
• 🌐 External datapack libraries support, see configuration for more information.
• 🔗 Merging datapacks and resource packs with libraries using Smithed Weld.
• 🧩 Automatic recognition of custom blocks patterns depending on the texture names in the assets/textures folder. For instance, if you have a top, side, and bottom texture, the block will be automatically recognized as a cube with the top, side, and bottom textures.
• 📏 Follow the datapack conventions such as LanternLoad, CustomModelData prefix, tag specification, and namespacing.
• 🧰 Ability to merge a model with the autogenerated one or override it.
• 🔀 merge folder providing a way to merge custom files with the autogenerated ones or add custom files to the datapack.
• ⚙️ Automatic special compatibilities with datapacks such as SimpleDrawer's compacted drawer, SimplEnergy's pulverizer, and NeoEnchant's veinminer for custom ores.
• 🔌 Automatic generation of an unload function to cleanly remove scoreboards, storages, entities, and libraries.
• 🔢 Efficient sorting functions generation (Quick Sort, Selection Sort) for NBT storage lists.
• 📂 Automatic copy of generated zip files to configured folders.
