Looting Shears [PurpurPack]
by PurpurMC
Looting Shears [PurpurPack] adds shears that drop more items when they are used, as a data pack for Purpur servers.
What it does
Shears used with the pack's looting setting return extra items from a shearing action, so a mob farm or shearing setup yields more per use. The pack's functions use the same single configuration setting that Purpur exposes, and the changes were added and removed over time without damaging the server. It works fully with vanilla and with other server software. Fabric API is required, and the pack's dependencies must be placed in the mods folder. The code is under the MIT License and is open source, and the environment is server required with client optional.

What the author says
Each datapack functions the same as a singular configuration setting would in Purpur. They can be added and removed at any time without damaging the server. These datapacks do not depend on Purpur; they work completely fine in vanilla or any other server software.
