Easy Recipes

Build recipes without touching YAML


Easy Recipes gives server staff a clean in-game workbench for

creating and managing crafting recipes. Put real items into the 3×3 editor,

choose the result, save, and the recipe becomes available immediately.

No client mod, resource pack, or restart is required.


Recipe workbench

• Create shaped and shapeless crafting recipes from an inventory GUI
• Preserve display names, lore, enchantments, model data, components, and PDC
• Set result stack sizes without commands or configuration files
• Switch recipe type, rename recipes, and edit ingredients before saving
• Search and page through large recipe libraries
• Clone recipes as disabled drafts for safer experimentation
• Enable, disable, and delete recipes while the server is running

Replace an old recipe safely
Every custom recipe has an Existing Recipes switch. When enabled,
Easy Recipes temporarily removes other registered recipes that produce the
same material. Turn the switch off and those recipes are restored immediately.
This is useful when you want your custom recipe to be the only way to craft an
item. The setting is visible in the GUI, saved per recipe, and automatically
restored if the custom recipe is disabled or the plugin shuts down.
Built for server staff

• Optional permission requirement for each individual recipe
• Optional recipe-book discovery
• Right-click a library entry to jump directly to its settings
• Shift-click a library entry to enable or disable it quickly
• Automatic rotating backups before edits or deletions
• Atomic recipes.yml writes to reduce the chance of partial files
• Dated exports for moving a library between servers
• Clear validation for empty grids, missing results, duplicate IDs, and invalid permissions

Commands

• /easyrecipe, /ezrecipe, or /er — Open the recipe library
• /er create [shaped|shapeless] — Start a recipe
• /er edit <id> — Open one recipe directly
• /er search <text> — Search the library
• /er list [page] — List saved recipe IDs
• /er info <id> — Inspect a recipe and matching originals
• /er enable <id> — Enable a recipe
• /er disable <id> — Disable a recipe
• /er toggle <id> — Flip a recipe’s current state
• /er originals <id> <block|allow> — Control other recipes for that result
• /er reload — Reload the configuration and recipe library
• /er export — Create a dated library export

Permissions

• customrecipes.use — Browse recipes
• customrecipes.edit — Create, edit, clone, and toggle recipes
• customrecipes.delete — Delete recipes
• customrecipes.reload — Reload files
• customrecipes.export — Export the library
• customrecipes.admin — Grant all Easy Recipes permissions

All permissions default to server operators.

Compatibility

• Minecraft 1.20.1–1.21.11
• Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, Purpur, and compatible Bukkit-based forks
• Server-side only; players do not install anything
• Java 17 bytecode with no bundled server API

The release is compiled against the Spigot 1.20.1 API and runtime-tested on
Paper 1.20.1, 1.20.6, 1.21.1, 1.21.11, and Purpur 1.21.11.
Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, Sponge, Folia, Velocity, and BungeeCord are not marked
compatible. Proxy software such as Velocity and BungeeCord does not own the
crafting registry; install this plugin on the backend Bukkit-family server.
Installation

1. Download EasyRecipes-1.0.0.jar.
2. Place it in the backend server's plugins folder.
3. Restart the server.
4. Join as an operator and run /er.

When moving a recipe library to an older Minecraft release, remove recipes that
contain items unavailable on that release before copying recipes.yml.
