Creating a Resource Pack

Creating the Pack:

To create the ResourcePack you need to create a few objects:

public class MyResourcePack {
    public static void load(Plugin plugin) {
        ResourcePack pack = new ResourcePack(plugin, "plugin_id");
        Namespace ns = pack.namespace("plugin_id");
        
        // Setup resource pack here
        
        pack.register(false);
    }
}

Loading your first texture:

There are two ways to load textures: load using a file inside your resources folder. OR; load using byte data.

public class MyResourcePack {
    public static Texture EXAMPLE;
    
    public static void load(Plugin plugin) {
        ResourcePack pack = new ResourcePack(plugin, "plugin_id");
        Namespace ns = pack.namespace("plugin_id");
        
        EXAMPLE = ns.texture("item/iron_sword");
        // OR
        // EXAMPLE = ns.texture("item/iron_sword", data)
        
        pack.register(false);
    }
}
