RegistryDumper
by B&G Studios
RegistryDumper is a Forge utility that writes the game's tags, recipes and item lists to readable files, for compatibility work and mod development on 1.20.1.
What it does
Commands export tags, recipes and item lists to formatted files, so the contents of a modded game can be read without running code. Dumping items with the true flag writes each item into separate files grouped by namespace. Dumping tags creates a folder in the resources data format that keeps nested tags intact.
Recipes can be exported by type, and the recipe types cover a broad set of vanilla workstations along with fermenting and pouring recipes from Brewin' and Chewin'. Developers and server owners use the output to check which recipes and items a pack provides.
The mod is built for Forge and published for Minecraft 1.20.1 only, with a single file dated 2026-02-17. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Item list export
The dumpitems command writes the item list, and with the true flag each namespace gets its own file.
Tag export
The dumptags command creates a folder in the resources data format that holds every tag, including nested ones.
Recipe export by type
The dumprecipes command writes recipes into a folder in the resources data format, limited to the chosen recipe types.
Readable output
Exported lists are formatted for reading, so they can be compared or searched without extra tools.

Use cases
Compatibility checks
Exported item and tag lists show which identifiers two mods share, which helps find conflicts in a modpack.
Mod development
Developers can dump recipes and tags from the game to use as a reference while writing data for their own content.
Who it’s for: Mod developers, modpack authors and server owners who need a readable record of the items, tags and recipes a 1.20.1 Forge game contains.
How it compares
RecipeDumper is a Forge mod for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 that runs on the server alone and is released under the MIT License. Structure Dump is also a Forge server-side mod, licensed under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and it covers 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 instead of focusing on recipes, tags and items. RegistryDumper requires both sides and is limited to 1.20.1.
