Welcome to the lore-template-engine wiki!

The Lore Template Engine is a Paper plugin for defining custom item lore/tooltip layouts through config.

Items are tagged with a template ID (via PDC), and their lore is generated from that template whenever the item changes (crafting, enchanting, admin commands, ...).

The config is split into three layers:

  • Variables = single values read from an item (rarity, item_level)
  • Groups = lists of values read from an item (enchantments, tags)
  • Templates = arrange variables and groups into an actual lore layout

Getting started

If you are a server admin configuring the plugin, start with the User Guide.

If you are a plugin developer integrating with LTE, see the Developer API.
