Femtorinth

Crates.io

⚠️ This library is no longer maintained, I lost interest in this project after discovering a minecraft launcher called “MultiMC”, however if you want to interact with the Modrinth api have a look at the Ferinth crate which is more up-to-date :D.

Femtorinth is a rust library to interact with a sub-set of the Modrinth api, it only includes the api calls that don’t need auth (a.k.a only GET calls), it includes parsing for all the structs that exist in the v1 documentation of Modrinth’s api and the structs themselves aswell, plus, helper functions that will return those structs and handle calling the Modrinth api, currently this library is using the ureq crate as it’s back-end to call the Modrinth api but that’s planned to change in the near future so the library can become backend agnostic (although i have no idea what the use of this library would then be).

Right now Femtorinth is still very much in infancy, it does have good enough error handling, documentation and code but i think there’s still room for improvement, have a look at the Roadmap section of this readme if you’re interested in contributing!

Basic example

Getting the latest sodium version + a bit of flair

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let results = femtorinth::search_mods("Sodium".into(), None, Some(1))?;
    let modres = results.hits[0].clone();
    println!("Found: {} from {}", &modres.title, &modres.author);
    println!("Description: {}", &modres.description);
    println!(
        "Downloads and follows: {} and {}",
        &modres.downloads, &modres.follows
    );
    println!(
        "Latest supported minecraft version: {}",
        &modres.latest_version
    );
    println!("Licensed under: {}", &modres.license);

    let version_list = femtorinth::version_list(modres.get_clean_id())?;
    let mod_version_data = version_list[0].clone();

    println!("Name of the newest version: {}", &mod_version_data.name);
    println!("Files for download with filenames:");
    for i in mod_version_data.files {
        println!("{}: {}", i.filename, i.url);
    }

    Ok(())
}

Why “Femtorinth”?

Femtorinth is a name that’s made up of two words, Femtometre and Modrinth, Femtometre is an extremely small metric (10^-15, even smaller than pico!) and since this library only covers a subset of Modrinth’s v1 API, this name would be perfect!

Roadmap

Have somebody more experienced look at the code and give advice on how to improve it
Add more examples to the project demonstrating more features
Make the documentation and interface easier to both read and use
Make the library back-end agnostic so http crates other than ureq can be used
