Adding Widgets

Add some widgets to your mod

To add these or custom widgets in your mod:

First create a new class and implement the Widgets interface

public class MyClass implements Wigdets
{

  @Override
  public void addWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) {
  }
  @Override
  public void addMainMenuWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) {
  }
  @Override
  public void loadWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) {
  }
  
}

You may create a list of widgets and add widgets to them. You can then add them to WidgetManager by iterating through each widget element.

List<Widget> widgets = new ArrayList<>();
widgets.add(MyWidget);

//Add the widgets to the WidgetManager
for (Widget wigdet : widgets)  {
    dynamicutil.getWidgetManager().addWidget(wigdet);
    //To add widgets to the TitleScreen
    dynamicutil.getWidgetManager().addMainMenuWidget(wigdet);
}

Or you can directly add the widgets to

//To add widgets to the InGameHud
dynamicutil.getWidgetManager().addWidget()
//To add widgets to the TitleScreen
dynamicutil.getWidgetManager().addMainMenuWidget(wigdet);

Create all the widgets in the addWidgets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) method

@Override
public void addWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) {
  
   List<Widget> widgets = new ArrayList<>();
   
   widgets.add(new TextWidget(mc, text, () -> dataText, xPercent, yPercent, true, true, false, -1, -1,       true));

   widgets.add(new ArmorWidget(mc, EquipmentSlot.CHEST,xPercent, yPercent, true,     TextureHelper.Position.ABOVE, () -> text, ()->color));

   widgets.add(new ItemWidget(mc,() -> itemStack, xPercent, yPercent, true, TextureHelper.Position.ABOVE, () -> text,()-> color));

  //Add the widgets to the WidgetManager widget List
  for (Widget wigdet : widgets)  {
      dynamicUtil.getWidgetManager().addWidget(wigdet);
   }
   dynamicUtil.WidgetAdded = true;
 }

This code is a method named addWigdets that takes in a DynamicUtil object as a parameter. The method creates an ArrayList of Widget objects and adds three widgets to it: a TextWidget, an ArmorWidget, and an ItemWidget.

After creating and adding the widgets to the list, the method loops through the list and adds each widget to be displayed on screen using the addWidget method in the WidgetManager class of the DynamicUtil object.

To Add a Widget to the TitleScreen or MainMenu you can override the addMainMenuWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil)

The MainMenuWidgets don't contain any contextMenu, slider or a colorPicker. It is just to display message or any widget that is simple. The user can move the widgets around in the TitleScreen without opening any other screens. If you don't want the user to be able to move the widgets, then you can make it undraggable by

widget.setDraggable(false);

@Override
public void addMainMenuWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) {
  
   List<Widget> MainMenuwidgets = new ArrayList<>();
   
   MainMenuwidgets.add(new TextWidget(mc, text, () -> dataText, xPercent, yPercent, true, true, false, -1, -1, true));

   MainMenuwidgets.add(new ArmorWidget(mc, EquipmentSlot.CHEST,xPercent, yPercent, true, TextureHelper.Position.ABOVE, () -> text, ()->color));

   MainMenuwidgets.add(new ItemWidget(mc,() -> itemStack, xPercent, yPercent, true, TextureHelper.Position.ABOVE, () -> text,()-> color));

  //Add the widgets to the WidgetManager MainMenuWidget List
  for (Widget wigdet : MainMenuwidgets )  {
      dynamicUtil.getWidgetManager().addMainMenuWidget(wigdet);
   }
dynamicUtil.MainMenuWidgetAdded=true;
 }

The TextWidget is created using its constructor, which takes in several parameters such as the Minecraft instance (mc), the text to display, a lambda expression for the data text, the x and y position of the widget as percentages, and several boolean values for various settings.

The ArmorWidget is created similarly, with additional parameters for the equipment slot and the position of the texture.

The ItemWidget is also created similarly, with additional parameters for the item stack and the position of the texture.

To load the widgets with the respective text and color, edit the loadWidgets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) method.

@Override
public void loadWigdets(DynamicUtil dynamicUtil) {

// Load the widgets from the loadWidgets method in the widgetManager Class
List<Widget> widgets = dynamicUtil.getWidgetManager().loadWigdets(WIDGETS_FILE);
    
// Load the MainMenuWidgets from the loadMainMenuWidgets method in the widgetManager Class
List<Widget> MainMenuWidgets = dynamicUtil.getWidgetManager().loadMainMenuWigdets(WIDGETS_FILE);
    
Widget.addTextGenerator("Dynamic", () -> "HUD");
Widget.addTextGenerator("FPS", () -> String.valueOf(mc.getCurrentFps()));
Widget.addTextGenerator("Label", () -> "Label");
Widget.addTextGenerator(text, () -> dataText);


 for (Widget widget : widgets) {
    dynamicUtil.getWidgetManager().addWidget(widget);
 }

 for (Widget widgetItem : MainMenuWidgets ) {
    dynamicUtil.getWidgetManager().addMainMenuWidget(widgetItem);
 }

        dynamicUtil.WidgetLoaded = true;
}

This code is a method named loadWigdets that takes in a DynamicUtil object as a parameter. The method is used to load widgets from a file named WIDGETS_FILE using the loadWidgets method in the WidgetManager class of the DynamicUtil object. This method is universal for all widgets meaning any widget with the same label will have the text displayed.

The method calls the static addTextGenerator method on the Widget class several times. This method takes two arguments: a label and a text generator function. The label is used to identify which widget should display the text generated by the text generator function. The text generator function is responsible for generating the text that will be displayed by the widget. In this code, text generators are added for various pieces of information such as FPS, Label, DynamicHud, etc.

After that, the method iterates over the lists of widgets and MainMenu widgets, calling the addWidget and addMainMenuWidget methods on the WidgetManager object obtained from the DynamicUtil object for each widget. These methods add the widgets to the WidgetManager.

If you don't want to load the widgets with their color and text, you can simply add the looped widgets to the widgetManager to be displayed.

Instead of creating a new class to add and load the widgets, you can simple implement the Widgets interface in your main entry point class.

If you have created your widgets and want it to be saved and loaded, then head on to this page:
