Block Entity Registry

Matthiesen Core provides a convenience base class for registering block entities in a platform-agnostic way. This allows mod developers to define and register blocks entities without worrying about the underlying platform-specific implementation details.

ModBlockEntityRegistry.java

package com.example.mymod.registry;

import dev.matthiesen.matthiesen_core.common.registry.AbstractBlockEntityRegistry;

public final class ModBlockEntityRegistry extends AbstractBlockEntityRegistry {
  private static final ModBlockEntityRegistry INSTANCE = new ModBlockEntityRegistry();

  private ModBlockEntityRegistry() {
    super("example_mod"); // Replace with your mod's ID
  }

  /**
   * Initializes the block entity registry. This method should be called during the mod's initialization phase.
   */
  public static void init() {}

  public static final Supplier<BlockEntityType<ExampleBlockEntity>> EXAMPLE_BLOCK_ENTITY = INSTANCE.register(
    "example_block_entity",
    () -> buildType(ExampleBlockEntity::new, ModBlockRegistry.EXAMPLE_BLOCK)
  );

  private static <T extends BlockEntity> BlockEntityType<T> buildType(
    BiFunction<BlockPos, BlockState, T> entityFactory,
    Supplier<? extends Block> supplier
  ) {
    return BlockEntityType.Builder.of(entityFactory::apply, supplier.get()).build(null);
  }
}
