This plugin allows you to integrate custom recipes and JEI into your mod, together with wide array of side features to enhance your mod even futher.
Wiki:
For extensive information about this plugin check out the wiki:
zsemper.github.io/plugins/jei_integration/
Getting started:
To start you need to enable the JEI API under your workspace settings. You can still use the plugin without enabling the plugin, but it wont include the jei information and every element used for jei in the recipe types are disabled.
Setting up a recipe type:
The main mod element in this plugin is the "Recipe Type", which allows you to set up a recipe type for your custom recipes. To create one you need a texture that is 256 by 256 pixel large that is used in jei as a background for the recipe category, afterwards you need to specify the x and y coords together with the width and height to select the part of the texture that is used.
You also need to set a title and a displayed icon for the recipe category in jei.
The second page is the most important as it is used to set the actual slots and inputs/outputs of the recipe type.
The IO determines if the slot in an input or an output slot. The type can be one out of five types, either an item, a fluid, logic, a number or text. The name is the name that is used as a key in recipes and procedures, and to be unique for each slot in the recipe type. The x and y are only used for item and fluid type to set the location in the jei recipe category. Optional means that this slot can be left out in recipes and can be air in procedures. Logic, number and text slots require a default value if set to optional.
Creating a recipe:
To create a custom recipe select the recipe type the recipe is gonna use.
Below you can set the inputs and outputs, which follow almost the same structure as in the recipe type.
First set the type of the input/output, like in the recipe type, and secord set the name, which has to match the one set in the recipe type. Afterwards the item, fluid, logic, number or text input/output in the recipe.

Hey there!
My custom crafting table has a cybernetic cyan/black style instead of the normal monotone one (idk if this matters but I guess it does)
I'm struggling with the "256x256" texture, it gets rendered too big in the JEI tab. Sufficient to exit the tab "boundaries". It's a bit hard to explain without images or links to imgur, sorry if it seens confusing
Ohh, ok, thanks!
By the way, I'm having an issue with item durability, I have a type of item called "diagrams" which are needed to craft certain items, and instead of completely using them, they get damaged instead. The problem is, because of the durability, JEI thinks the item can be enchanted with mending, unbreaking, etc. Is this normal JEI behaivor or is it a bug?
I seem to be missing something here. Fresh installation of 2025.2 and the only plugin I have is JEI Integration. Java Plugins is enabled and Just enough items is enabled in external APIs.
However, when I go to create a new recipe type, after I give it a name, nothing happens. What am I missing?
Love the work you've done do you think you would be able to make plugins for forge energy too to expand the use of it and if possible would be insane if you would be able to add so forge energy works on items like tools and even blocks (when in inventory) i know its a lot and hard but if its possible it would make a huge change for tech mods in mcreator
I'm unable to set a new clickable area! It keeps goings back to x16 y16 and x61 y61 respectfully. I tried removing and adding it, turning the feature on and off but nothing works!
