This is going to be Chorus' last major release. I'm extremely thankful for the support this software has received and I'm glad you enjoyed it! However, 5 years (as of 2023) have passed since its initial release, and I feel the need to move on to some new, exciting projects that would teach me new things along the way. After all, this is what coding is: 5-years-ago me made some design choices that I would not have picked now, but I guess that's how you grow up: you fail and learn, and I'm proud of what Chorus has taught me.
Chorus is an easy-to-use and lightweight YAML editor, created for anyone who works on Spigot-based Minecraft servers.
Thanks to its features, Chorus is perfect to edit configurations quickly and easily.
Chorus has a lot of features that will help you edit your configuration with extreme ease:
- Edit remote files (SFTP and FTP);
- Show previews of chat, title, scoreboard, item, GUI, sign, action bar, boss bar, mob bar, MOTD and animated text;
- Use autocompletion to insert elements quicker;
- Quickly show colored text;
- Insert colored text via an editor;
- Insert items by name/ID;
- Insert particles by name;
- Insert effects by name/ID;
- Insert sounds by name;
- Insert entities by name;
- Insert enchantments by name/ID;
- Convert milliseconds, seconds, minutes, hours, days to ticks and vice-versa;
- Fetch information of items, effects, entities, enchantments;
Pro tip: CTRL + click the game element;
- Add variables that are applied during previews;
- View complete path of any key by hovering it;
- Auto-save your files (with customizable delays);
- Replace TABs with spaces;
Since 1.3, Chorus supports custom JavaScript add-ons.
Check out the official wiki for API documentation.
Although an official marketplace is not ready yet, you can publish your add-ons by submitting your files to the add-ons repository following the instructions given in its README.
In order to load an add-on, place the .js file inside the chorus/addons folder.
Chorus supports custom themes. If you want to create your own, create a folder into chorus/themes named as your theme's name.
In this folder, you have to create the following files:
- {name}.css, to style the main view;
- {name}-highlight.css to style keywords;
- {name}-settings.css to style setting view;
Note: {name} must be the same as your folder's name.
To see the structure of a style file, take a look at this theme:
If you want to make it public, you can add it to the official themes repository following these guidelines.
