CodecExtras

Various extensions to the codecs from Mojang's DFU, including:

• Codecs with comments
• Record codecs with large numbers of entries
• Codecs which decode to a different type than they encode from
• Codecs representing changes to mutable data

Artifacts are available on my maven:

repositories {
    maven {
        url = 'https://maven.lukebemish.dev/releases'
    }
}

The main artifact depends only on DFU and org.slf4j:slf4j-api, and may be jar-in-jar-ed:

dependencies {
    implementation('dev.lukebemish:codecextras:<version>')
}

For utilities supporting StreamCodecs, you will want to depend on the relevant artifact by capability:

dependencies {
    implementation('dev.lukebemish:codecextras:<version>') {
        capabilities {
            requireCapability('dev.lukebemish:codecextras-stream')
        }
    }
}

Or if using fabric:

dependencies {
    modImplementation('dev.lukebemish:codecextras:<version>') {
        capabilities {
            requireCapability('dev.lukebemish:codecextras-stream-intermediary')
        }
    }
}

This element depends on the main artifact, and may also be jar-in-jar-ed -- though you may need to use a newer version of loom or NeoGradle for support for capabilities in jar-in-jar.
