[!WARNING]
Please note that the JSON schema is not stable and is not semantically versioned yet. We very well might break it in minor versions.
Hey Wiki supports using resource pack to add support for other wikis. To do so, create a JSON file in the
assets/<namespace>/wiki_family/
folder in your resource pack with the following format:
{
// A unique identifier for the wiki family
"id": "minecraft",
// The namespaces that is bound to the wiki family
"namespace": [
"minecraft"
],
// List of different language wikis
"wikis": [
{
// The URL pattern for articles. %s will be replaced with the query
"article_url": "https://minecraft.wiki/?search=%s",
// (Optional) If the wiki is a MediaWiki wiki, the API URL
"mw_api_url": "https://ja.minecraft.wiki/api.php",
// (Optional) The page name for the random article
"random_article": "Special:RandomRootPage/Main",
// (Optional) How Hey Wiki should fetch excerpts from the wiki. Either "text_extracts" or "none".
// "text_extracts" only works for MediaWiki sites with the TextExtracts extension installed. You can check this by visiting Special:Version on the wiki.
"excerpt": "text_extracts",
"language": {
// The language code of the wiki
"wiki_language": "en",
// Whether this is the main language. If true, this language will be fallback if no other language matches
"main": true,
// The default in-game language that the wiki supports. This will be fallback if the in-game language is not supported by the wiki
"default": "en_us",
// If the regex matches the in-game language, this wiki will be used when config is auto
"regex": "^en_.*",
// (Optional) Ditto, but for exclusion
"exclude": null,
// (Optional) A custom language code that allows you to override translation keys to specific pages. A translation file should exist at assets/<namespace>/lang/<lang_override>.json
"lang_override": "minecraft_en"
}
},
{
// Another language
"article_url": "https://de.minecraft.wiki/?search=%s",

For Fabric:
For NeoForge:
Hey Wiki supports multiple versions of Minecraft.
The current release and the master branches receive all new features and bug fixes. Pull requests should almost always
go to master
. If they're accepted, they should be cherry-picked to the current stable release branch.
When a new snapshot releases, master branch is updated to that snapshot. Snapshots might receive only one version or no version at all. Only Fabric is supported for snapshots.
Some select old MC versions receive LTS – they may or may not receive new bug fixes and new features, but they will receive critical bug fixes. Old snapshots are not supported.
The following table shows which versions are supported:
Git branch | Minecraft version | Supported? | Is LTS? | Modloader |
---|---|---|---|---|
master |
1.21 | Yes (latest release) | TBD | Fabric, Neoforge |
mc/1.20.6 |
1.20.6 | No | No | Fabric, Neoforge |
mc/1.20.5 |
1.20.5 | No | No | Fabric, Neoforge |
mc/1.20.4 |
1.20.4 | Yes (LTS) | Yes | Fabric, Neoforge |
N/A | Outdated snapshots | EOL | No | Fabric |
