Botarium

by Terrarium

Botarium is a cross-platform library for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge that helps mod authors build tech blocks and items which hold items, fluids and energy.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.18.2 – 1.20.4

What it does

The library supplies a shared transfer API, so blocks and items built on it can move items, fluids and energy into and out of other Forge and Fabric containers. Storage and transfer code written once works across the supported loaders, and the mod adds registration helpers for fluids and general content alongside it. Botarium requires Fabric API and is published for 1.18.2 – 1.20.4 under the MIT License, and it is open source.

Key features

  1. Item, fluid and energy storage

    Blocks and items can be built to hold items, fluids and energy through the library's shared storage types.

  2. Container transfer

    A basic transfer API lets such blocks exchange contents with other Forge and Fabric containers.

  3. Registration helpers

    Dedicated registration APIs cover fluids and general content, so mod authors need less loader-specific code.
