Adds some helpful enchantments for Shulker Boxes

The project setup is based off of Fallen-Breath's template.

Inspiration

I was inspired to create this mod after watching Xisumavoid's video about inventory improvements. In that video a Forge mod called Shulker Enchantments was presented. This mod now tries to provide similar functionality for Fabric, as the only other Fabric mod with these enchantments that I could find (i.e. BetterShulkers) only supports Minecraft 1.16.

Features

This mod adds the "Siphon" and "Refill" enchantments to the game. They can be obtained just like Mending and other treasure enchantments. The enchantments can be added to Shulker Boxes and optionally to Ender Chests (see configuration) on an anvil.

Siphon

With the Siphon enchantment, any item that you pick up will be immediately stored in an enchanted container as long as that container already has a non-full stack of that exact item inside. The container must be inside your inventory.

Refill

With the Refill enchantment, any item or item stack you use up will be refilled from an enchanted container as long as the used stack was held in one of the hands (see configuration). Again, the container must be inside your inventory.

Vacuum

The Vacuum enchantment doesn't generate by default making it unobtainable in survival. To change that, set the generateVacuum option to true (and optionally disable Siphon by setting generateSiphon to false). Its behavior is very similar to that of the Siphon enchantment, with the key difference that it doesn't require the same item to already be present in the enchanted container. This means a container enchanted with Vacuum will take all items you pick up as long as it has space to do so.

Void

Same as the Vacuum enchantment, the Void enchantment also doesn't generate by default. To make it obtainable in survival mode, enable the generateVoid option. When you pick up items of the same type as a container with the Void enchantment contains, the picked up items will be deleted. The enchanted container does not require space to put the deleted items, and unlike Siphon, the stacks in the enchanted container can be full.

Augment

The Augment enchantment expands the size of a Shulker Box. It is available in different levels where each level adds nine more slots to the Shulker's inventory. Just like Vacuum and Void it is unobtainable in survival when using the default settings, but that can be configured with the generateAugment option. The maximum level can also be changed with the maxAugmentLevel option.

A note on Resource Packs

When using EnchantedShulkers with a resource pack that alters the look of Shulker Boxes and/or Ender Chests, the enchanted versions of those items and blocks will still use the vanilla texture while closed. This had to be done to fix overlapping glint effects on said blocks.

You can patch your resource pack to include the necessary textures for this mod at https://enchantedshulkers.rubixdev.de.

Server/Client

This mod does actually work as a server-only mod, but it is recommended to be used on both client and server. Players without the mod on their client do not see an enchantment glint on enchanted containers.

I just wanna quickly try 'em out

If you just want to quickly test the enchantments in a creative world, there are multiple options to do so.

Option one: You can search for the enchanted books in the creative inventory and apply them with an anvil.

Option two: You can give yourself the enchanted books with a command and apply them with an anvil. Note that the IDs begin with enchantedshulkers: and not minecraft:.

• Command for Siphon: /give @s minecraft:enchanted_book{StoredEnchantments:[{id:"enchantedshulkers:siphon",lvl:1}]}
• Command for Refill: /give @s minecraft:enchanted_book{StoredEnchantments:[{id:"enchantedshulkers:refill",lvl:1}]}

Option three: You can enchant the item you're holding with the /enchant command.

• Command for Siphon: /enchant @s enchantedshulkers:siphon
• Command for Refill: /enchant @s enchantedshulkers:refill

Configuration

Client

To configure client side settings, you must have Cloth Config API and Mod Menu installed alongside EnchantedShulkers. You can then open the settings by opening the mod menu, selecting EnchantedShulkers and clicking the settings button on the right side.

The following options are available:

Option	Default	Description
Apply glint to placed containers	Yes	Applies the enchantment glint to enchanted shulker boxes and ender chests that are placed in the world
Prevent glint overlap with custom models	Yes	Uses different block models and textures for closed containers to prevent overlapping glint. This does not change the look of closed containers, but always uses the vanilla textures, so you should disable this when using a custom resource pack. This option only has effect when the above option is on
Refill while inventory is open	No

Server

The behavior of the mod can be tweaked per world in the enchantedshulkers.toml config file inside you world save folder, or with the /enchantedshulkers command in game. Below is a list of available options.

Option	Possible Values	Default Value	Description
refillOffhand	true, false	true	Allow refilling stacks in the offhand
refillNonStackables	true, false	false	Allow refilling non-stackable items like Totems of Undying
enchantableEnderChest	true, false	false	Allows Ender Chests to also be enchanted
coloredNames	true, false	false	Show the names of placed enchanted containers in aqua color. This applies to all players
creativeSiphon	true, false	false	Enable the Siphon enchantment for creative players
creativeRefill	true, false	false	Enable the Refill enchantment for creative players
creativeVacuum	true, false	false	Enable the Vacuum enchantment for creative players
creativeVoid	true, false	false	Enable the Void enchantment for creative players
generateSiphon	true, false	true	Make the Siphon enchantment obtainable in survival by allowing enchanted books to generate with it
generateRefill	true, false	true	Make the Refill enchantment obtainable in survival by allowing enchanted books to generate with it
generateVacuum	true, false	false	Make the Vacuum enchantment obtainable in survival by allowing enchanted books to generate with it
generateVoid	true, false	false	Make the Void enchantment obtainable in survival by allowing enchanted books to generate with it
generateAugment	true, false	false	Make the Augment enchantment obtainable in survival by allowing enchanted books to generate with it
nestedContainers	any integer between 0 and 32767	255	Search containers recursively up to the specified number of levels deep (e.g, search through Shulker Boxes in an Ender Chest)
strongerSiphon	true, false	false	Allow the Siphon enchantment to fill empty slots. The same behavior can be enabled for the Vacuum enchantment with weakerVacuum
weakerVacuum	true, false	false	Require the same item to already be present in the container. The same behavior can be enabled for the Siphon enchantment with strongerSiphon
maxAugmentLevel	any integer between 1 and 10	3	The maximum level for the Augment enchantment. For the best experience execute /reload after changing this value

For Mod Developers

If your Mod adds a new container that should support these enchantments, you must simply add the container to the enchantedshulkers:portable_container item tag. To do that, create the file portable_container.json inside the src/main/resources/data/enchantedshulkers/tags/items/ folder of your mod with following contents:

{
  "replace": false,
  "values": ["your_mod_namespace:your_container_item"]
}

If your container does not extend the vanilla Shulker Box class, you might have to manually implement the EnchantableBlockEntity interface and support rendering the enchantment glint and display name colorizer. For more information have a look at ShulkerBoxBlockEntityRendererMixin.java and ShulkerBoxBlockEntityMixin.java.
