Interactive Enchanted Books
by Bristn
Interactive Enchanted Books lets players open enchanted books and place them on lecterns, where each page shows the enchantments it holds.
What it does
Enchanted books can be opened the way written books are, and a book placed on a lectern shows the same interface. Lecterns emit particles tied to the enchantments on the selected page, and a cover page cycles through the enchantments it contains. The particle lifetime depends on how many books sit in nearby chiseled bookshelves, and an empty bookshelf emits no particles at all.
The book screen gives details on each enchantment, including a description, a list of mutually exclusive enchantments, requirements, and the comparator signal strength of each group. Enchantments are split into groups that emit different signal strengths, and a comparator can read those values. Enchanted books can be cloned, and the information panels are only shown when the mod is installed on the server.
The mod is a Fabric mod that requires the client, while the server can run it as an optional addition. The code is licensed under CC0 1.0 Universal and is open source. Files exist for 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, and the latest Fabric build is 1.1.1+26.3 for 26.3.
