This repository demonstrates a basic MCreator Java plugin structure.

# Setup

In order for the plugin to work, make a new file called `gradle.properties` with the following contents:

```
mcreator_path=<path to MCreator core Gradle project directory>
```

# Running MCreator with the plugin

This demo plugin comes with some Gradle tasks to help you with the development of your plugin. 

* `runMCreatorWithPlugin`: Run MCreator with the plugin loaded

There is also IntelliJ IDEA run configuration for this task provided in the repository.

**Make sure to enable Java plugins in MCreator preferences, or the plugin will not be loaded.**

# Testing

We highly recommend to test your plugin by running MCreator's tests with your plugin loaded.

There is also IntelliJ IDEA run configuration for this task provided in the repository.
