Components

Guide to components

The components section in a menu file is used to configure sections of lore used in some templates. The section the component is defined is the name of the component. The lore key of a component defines the lines of lore that will be inserted in place of its corresponding component lore with the same name in template. The lore list works like the lore of any item or template, so formatting and PlaceholderAPI placeholders can be used. The context key states what the context type its corresponding template uses and should not be changed.

The reason components exist are to allow sections of lore that might not always be shown by a plugin to work more conveniently. If a component is hidden, no empty lines are created in the lore (the list entry in the template lore containing the component will be ignored). Thus, the lore list in the main template can be more clear, with each component on a different line.
