Anvil Recipes

Anvil recipes allow custom anvil crafting behavior with experience cost and component copying support.

YAML Example

type: 'anvil'
result: 'minecraft:diamond_sword'
base: 'minecraft:iron_sword'
addition: 'minecraft:diamond'
cost_level: 3
copy_components_rules:
  - 'enchantments'
  - 'display_name'
  - 'lore'

Fields

Field	Type	Required	Description
type	string	Yes	Must be anvil
result	string	Yes	Output item ID
base	string	Yes	Left anvil slot item (base item)
addition	string	Yes	Right anvil slot item (addition material)
cost_level	integer	No	Experience levels consumed, default 0
copy_components_rules	list	No	Component copy rules (see Smithing Recipes)
fake_result_preview	string	No	Fake preview item shown during crafting

Difference from Vanilla Anvil

• Vanilla anvil: item repair, enchantment combining, renaming
• Custom anvil recipes: fully custom input → output mapping, bypassing vanilla logic

Enable / Disable

Anvil recipe functionality can be globally controlled in config.yml:

enable_anvil_recipe: true

Set to false to disable all custom anvil recipes.

Copy Components Rules

Same as smithing recipes. See Smithing Recipes — Copy Components Rules for the full list of supported rules.

Notes

• Both base and addition support item packs (item_pack:)
• cost_level of 0 means no experience is consumed
• When multiple anvil recipes match the same input, the first matching recipe is used
