About

Creating Modpacks with Voodoo requires minimal effort, just create one .voodoo.json or .voodoo.kts definition per modpack

You can Test Any pack in MultiMC, creating a instance and launching it is completely automated, no more clicking than necessary

Modern Minecraft versions (1.6.+), Forge and Fabric are supported

packages to custom (TODO: add link and readme) Pack Format

No Rehosting of Mods! completely automated by preparing .url.txt files pointing to the original file location

Reproducability: with a modpacks lockfile and src folder you can reproduce the modpack on any platform, server install or local testing (assuming that the urls do not get taken down or redirect anywhere else)

Minimalistic Packs: on all platforms that support it (currently only the multimc-wrapper) mods will be downloaded by the user from the original location,

Is Voodoo for you?

Want to make a modpack ? quickly test locally and then make it available on multiple platforms for users ?

voodoo is a set of tools to quickly prepare, build, test and deploy modpacks to users and servers

Voodoo might be for you if:

✔️ You want a fast and mostly automated process
✔️ You want to be able to update the modpack whenever you want
✔️ You don't want to depend on anyone else

or

✔️ You already use SKCraft Launcher

Cons

It may not be for you if:

🔸 You do not feel comfortable using a shell
🔸 You do not feel comfortable using a IDE or text editor with syntax highlighting
🔸 You don't have a website or place for people to download files from and do not want to publish files to curse
🔸 You don't want anything to do with distributing the launcher or pack

This applies to different modules of voodoo individually.. without a place to host files you can still export a pack and upload it to curse, it will just be a much slower process due to approval and waiting time

you can grab binaries from the releases: https://github.com/DaemonicLabs/Voodoo/releases

Usage examples

# generate json schema for autocompletion
java -jar voodoo.jar generateSchema

# create a new pack
java -jar voodoo.jar create pack --id newPack --mcVersion 1.16.2

# builds a pack
java -jar voodoo.jar build --id mypack

# packages for upload
java -jar voodoo.jar package --id mypack -p voodoo -p mmc-voodoo -p curse

# launches pack in multimc
java -jar voodoo.jar launch multimc --id mypack

bash, zsh and fish Autocomplete

the autocompletions should be regenerated manually on voodoo update

# creating a alias
alias voodoo='java -jar voodoo.jar'

# generating autocompletion for bash
_VOODOO_COMPLETE=bash voodoo > ~/voodoo-completion.sh
source ~/voodoo-completion.sh

# generating autocompletion for zsh
_VOODOO_COMPLETE=zsh voodoo > ~/voodoo-completion.sh

# generating autocompletion for fish
_VOODOO_COMPLETE=fish voodoo > ~/.config/fish/voodoo-completion.fish

if you use a different alias then use the correct environment variable to generate completions the rules are

• command capitalized
• - replaced with _
• prefixed with _
• suffixed with _COMPLETE

eg invoke-voodoo would be _INVOKE_VOODOO_COMPLETE
