Serverside Chest + Inventory sort
by koutsie
Players who keep chests cluttered can have Serverside Chest + Inventory sort tidy stacks on the server, both in chests and in the personal inventory.
What it does
The mod sorts the contents of a chest when a player interacts with it, and it can also sort the personal inventory on command. Identical items are merged into full stacks, and the remaining entries are ordered by item name and count. Automatic sorting can be turned off for the whole server, or turned back on, through a chat command, and a help command lists every option.
The mod targets Fabric builds for 26.2 and 26.3, and it needs Fabric API. Only the server has to run it, so players join without installing anything. It is released under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 or later, and it is not open source, and the current Fabric file is 1.2 for 26.3, first published on 2026-08-09 and last updated on 2026-09-17.
Key features
Automatic chest sorting
Opening a chest triggers a sort of its contents, so stacks stay consolidated without manual work.
Command-based inventory sort
A command sorts the player's own inventory on demand, independent of any chest.
Merged identical items
Identical items are combined into full stacks before the entries are ordered by name and count.
Server-side toggle
Automatic chest sorting can be disabled or enabled with a command, and a help command shows the options.
