Item Logger

by Wheeler-Shigley

Item Logger writes the contents of containers to latest.log each time a player closes one, including chests and shulker boxes.

What it does

When a player closes a chest, shulker box or other container, the mod writes that container's contents to latest.log. Logging is off at startup and is switched on or off through the itemlogger command, which toggles between modes. Settings live in item-logger.config and can be reloaded in-game with a reload subcommand, so changes apply without a restart. The mod is client-side only and open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. Files target 1.20.5 – 1.21.7 on Fabric.

Key features

  1. Container logging

    Closing a container records its item contents in the game log, covering chests and shulker boxes.

  2. Mode toggle command

    The itemlogger command switches between logging modes, with an off mode that stops all output.

  3. Configurable settings

    Options are kept in item-logger.config and reloaded with a command, avoiding a restart after edits.
