QShop Auto Buy
by dx122dx
QShop Auto Buy is a Fabric client mod that turns a building schematic into a shopping list and buys the items from QShop shops automatically.
What it does
Players load a schematic file such as a .litematic, .schem, .schematic or .nbt, and the mod computes the blocks it needs. It reads the QShop database exported by Chunk Scanner, then a greedy planner matches each needed item to the cheapest shop that stocks it, so the purchase plan never pays more than the lowest available price.
Once a plan is queued, the mod navigates to each shop, buys what the plan lists, checks inventory capacity before every order, and stashes items automatically when the inventory fills. Play can be left running while it works through the queue, and the mod pauses during checkout. Because it is client-side only, the server needs nothing installed and the player installs it only in the mods folder.
QShop Auto Buy requires Chunk Scanner and Fabric API. Files are published for Fabric across six release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with 1.0.0-dev-20260805.2 for 1.20.6 as the latest build, released under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only. The source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Schematic shopping list
Building files are parsed into a shopping list, removing the need to read a blueprint and check prices by hand.
Cheapest-shop purchase plan
A greedy planner assigns each item to the lowest-priced shop in the QShop database.
Inventory-aware ordering
Before each order the mod checks how many of an item fit in the inventory and buys only that amount.
Automatic navigation and checkout
The queued plan drives the player to each shop in turn, buying the listed items without manual input.
