Stuffs to do

Kept here to replace TODO.md in the repo. Items marked "(?)" are still under consideration.

Emergency changes

Fabric Loader v0.12.0 introduces a massive refactor on mod loading mechanics, which breaks ThatOrThis completely. A rewrite needs to be done before it's too late. As the rewrite will break compatibility with Fabric Loader v0.11.x, support for these versions will be dropped on ThatOrThis v0.3.0.

• Internals rework due to Fabric Loader's new mod resolution algo based on "biases" (Rework mod discovery, resolution and loading FabricMC/fabric-loader#461) (commit de94067)
  • What if ThatOrThis found a mod with higher biases than the currently loaded one?
• Refactor FabricInternals to keep only interfacing code and move inner classes to a new package (commit de94067)

Stuffs to a better & cleaner config schema: (Include in v0.3.0?)

• Improve config schema robustness by allowing optional fields to be unset (Not a easy thing to do with Gson)
  • Introduce external libriaries (jackson / JSON5) instead? (Relocate classes to avoid conflict)
• Predicates for rules/options? (Make a rule depend on rule conditions #21 has a brilliant idea)
• Add tooltips to GENERATED rules' buttons (text from modmenu.descriptionTranslation.XXX? Format?)
• Customizable/fixed namespace for ruleset translation (make text fields optional in the process)
• Recover from mod conflicts ("safe mode"/load default/last-good choices)
• Online tool for v0.2.x~v0.3.0 transition

---

• Show filtered out mods in debug log (commit 216b4ba)
• Check for LanguageAdapters and GrossFabricHacks entrypoints on injecting a mod, and if found, issue a non-fatal error (LanguageAdapter found in "xxx-language-support"! Expect it to break)
  • (Experimental) support on loading LanguageAdapter mods (commit e6c2361)
• Mark each additional mod's parent as ThatOrThis (or a dummy mod like "Mods loaded by ThatOrThis") for simplifying the mod menu (Set CustomData modmenu.parent; need more reflection hacks)
  • Maybe inject an non-existent container mod in the discover phase?
• (?) Download mods from CurseForge/Modrinth/Maven/Link (Add mod loading from maven-style repository FabricMC/fabric-loader#282)
  • Modrinth has a Maven repository (https://api.modrinth.com/maven)
• (?) Allow loading "pure" jars as libraries (Makes Maven capability more useful)
• (?) Utilize ArgumentModCandidateFinder (Add --fabric.addMods / -Dfabric.addMods for adding extra path separator separated mods, list file if prefixed with @ FabricMC/fabric-loader#470)
• (?) Replace @xxx.xxx hack with JSON-based text (Text net.minecraft.text.Text.Serializer.fromJson(String))
• (?) Refactor RuleHolder to be like a container, similar to ChoiceHolder? (Good for consistency but otherwise unnecessary for now)
• (?) Combine disabled into ChoiceHolder (Not possible for now due to Map<> inheritance, but should be done)
• (?) Rewrite GUI components to take advantage of 1.17 features (e.g. CyclingButtonWidget)
