Contributing to NeoForge

  1. Keep patches to Minecraft classes together. If you need a lot of things done, you may either add to relevant forge classes or make a new class. Try not to spread out your patches across multiple disjoint lines, as this makes maintenance of your patches difficult.

  2. TODO: Test Mods

  3. Follow the code style of the class you're working in (braces on newlines & spaces instead of tabs in Forge classes, inline brackets in patches, etc).

Workflow

  1. Have preliminary discussions on Discord (#neoforge-github)
  2. Fork the repository
  3. Check out your fork
  4. Make a branch
  5. Run gradlew setup from the project root to decompile sources and apply current patches
  6. Import project into your IDE (IntelliJ/Eclipse) or Reload Gradle Project
  7. Modify the patched Minecraft sources in projects/neoforge/src/main/java as needed. The unmodified sources are available in projects/base/src/main/java for your reference. Do not modify these.
  8. Test your changes
    • Run the game (Runs are available in the IDE)
    • Run gradlew :tests:runGameTestServer or Tests: GameTestServer from IDE
    • Run gradlew :tests:runGameTestClient or Tests: GameTestClient from IDE
  9. Run gradlew unpackSourcePatches to generate patch-files from the patched sources
  10. Run gradlew applyAllFormatting to automatically format sources
  11. Check correct formatting with gradlew spotlessCheck
  12. Commit & Push
  13. Make PR
