Creating a custom cape provider

As a user

This demo showcases how to apply the capes inside custom-cape-demo.

1. Open the config file located in config/cape-provider.json5

2. In the customProviders section add the following entry:

    {
      "id": "cp1",
      "name": "CustomProvider1",
      // You can replace uuid with $id, $name or $idNoHyphen to customize the cape per Player
      "uriTemplate": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litetex-oss/mcm-cape-provider/refs/heads/dev/custom-cape-demo/uuid.png"
    }

   Example for SkinMC

   ```jsonc { "id": "skinmc", "name": "SkinMC", "uriTemplate": "https://skinmc.net/api/v1/skinmcCape/$id" } ```

3. Restart the game and activate the provider

As a developer / Proving capes through mods

If you are a mod developer and want to e.g. display a cape for supporters of your mod, you can provide it using the mod's metadata / fabric.mod.json. The overall behavior is similar to how modmenu handles this.

Here's a simple implementation:

fabric.mod.json

{
  ...
  "custom": {
    "cape": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/litetex-oss/mcm-cape-provider/refs/heads/dev/custom-cape-demo/uuid.png"
  }
}

You can also create a programmatic cape provider.
