Settings

Editor settings are persistent preferences for the editor UI and behavior.

Editor settings panel: setting groups on the left, editable settings on the right.

Settings is the unit of configuration:

public interface Settings extends IConfigurable {
    ResourceLocation getId();
    String getPath();
    void onApply(Editor editor);
}

EditorSettings owns registered settings and codecs. It can:

• register and unregister settings,
• build the settings panel,
• load JSON from config/ldlib2/editor.json,
• save JSON,
• detect dirty state,
• apply changed settings,
• restore the last applied state.

Register defaults by overriding initEditorSettings():

@Override
protected void initEditorSettings() {
    super.initEditorSettings();
    editorSettings.registerSettings(new ShopSettings(), ShopSettings.CODEC);
}

Built-in Settings

AppearanceSettings controls the editor stylesheet and GUI scale. ViewMenu uses it for window size options.

BehaviorSettings installs editor key handling:

• optional Esc close,
• Alt + S settings panel,
• Ctrl + Shift + S save as,
• Ctrl + S save.

Custom Settings

public class ShopSettings implements Settings {
    public static final ResourceLocation ID = LDLib2.id("shop");
    public static final Codec<ShopSettings> CODEC =
            PersistedParser.createCodec(ShopSettings::new);

    @Configurable
    private boolean previewItems = true;

    @Override
    public ResourceLocation getId() {
        return ID;
    }

    @Override
    public String getPath() {
        return "Shop";
    }

    @Override
    public void onApply(Editor editor) {
        // Read settings and update editor behavior.
    }
}
