Wiki Lookup

The Wiki Lookup mod offers players two convenient ways to instantly search for information right during gameplay. All queries automatically open in your system's default browser.

Main Features

You have access to the /wiki command, which performs a search for the entered query on Minecraft wiki or any other wiki encyclopedia of your choice. Settings allow flexible configuration of preferred information sources.

A special hotkey has also been added (default L), which automatically searches for information about the item currently under your mouse cursor. This is especially convenient when you need to quickly learn about the properties of an unknown block or item.

Technical Features

The mod is completely client-side and doesn't require installation on the server. Iceberg mod is required for operation.

Configuration

The configuration file contains the following options:

• wikidefinitions - a list of wiki encyclopedias in the format <mod identifier> = <wiki URL>. The identifier is used as the default wiki for all queries where a more specific wiki cannot be found. Minecraft wiki is used by default.

• open_in_new_tabs - default true. When set to false, the mod will attempt to open all queries in the same browser tab. Implemented using JavaScript, so results may vary.

• attempt_wiki_resolution - default true. When enabled and with multiple wikis configured, the option attempts to determine the appropriate wiki for each query. May be slow for large modpacks.

Configuration Examples

All wiki URLs should use the search function and contain the placeholder {} where the search query will be inserted.

For vanilla Minecraft:

[client.options.wikidefinitions]
 = "https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Search?go=Search&search={}"

For FTB modpack:

[client.options.wikidefinitions]
 = "https://ftb.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Search?go=Search&search={}"
minecraft = "https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Search?go=Search&search={}"

The mod can be freely used in modpacks.
