SearchRinth

by dep1xar

SearchRinth lets a player find a Modrinth mod, fetch it and place it in the mods folder from inside the game, without leaving Minecraft.

What it does

Pressing the default key M opens a search screen that queries the Modrinth catalog. A player enters a name, selects a result and clicks the install control. The file transfers with a progress bar, its SHA-1 hash is checked, and it lands in the mods folder. Afterwards the mod offers to restart the game, so the new mod can load without switching windows or copying files by hand. The key can be reassigned in the Controls settings.

Results are always filtered to Minecraft 1.20.1 and Forge, so the search cannot offer a file that will not load on this setup. The environment is client-side only, so the mod needs to be installed on the player's side and nowhere else; a server does not have to run it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source repository is public. Files are published for Forge only, in six builds 1.20.1 – 1.20.6, with 1.0.0 for 1.20.6 as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Modrinth search screen

    An in-game browser lists Modrinth mods matching the typed name, opened from a single key press.

  2. Verified transfers

    Each transfer shows a progress bar, and the file is checked against its SHA-1 hash before it is saved.

  3. Restart prompt

    After an install, the mod suggests restarting the game so the new mod is loaded straight away.

  4. Compatible results only

    Searches are filtered to the current game version and Forge, so incompatible files are never offered for install.
