Fcitx5-Enhancer

This is a mod made for Minecraft 1.20.x & 1.21.x, which provides compatibility with Fcitx5.

The Problem

When using IME in Minecraft, pressing a key that is also a game hotkey (e.g. Tab, Enter) causes the key event to be handled by both the input method and the game.

And then you'll be interrupted. That's crazy. So I wrote this mod, in order to deal with this disrupting problem.

Extra Features

We provides a highly configurable IMBlocker, with a visual element selector.

Besides, we added IME support for native Wayland environment.

Requirements

Fabric Loader and a JVM shipped with Unsafe (for 1.20 and 1.20.1) are required to run this mod.

Cloth Config is required too. To access the config screen, you need to install Mod Menu as well.

Building this Mod

To build the mod from its source code, run the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/NLR-DevTeam/Fcitx5-Enhancer --depth 1 --recursive
cd Fcitx5-Enhancer
./gradlew build --no-daemon

Then you'll find the artifacts inside fabricWrapper/build/libs.

Notice

This mod relies on native libraries to implement its functionalities. And the built-in libraries were compiled for Linux x86_64 (glibc 2.31, from Debian 11).
If you are using a different architecture (e.g. aarch64) or an incompatible system, you must compile them yourself.

Compiling the Native Libraries

Base Library (libfcitx5_detector.so)

Requirements:

• A valid JDK installation (with JNI headers)
• CMake 3.10+

Run this in your terminal:

cd Fcitx5-Enhancer/src/native/base
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

Eventually you'll see a shared library file named libfcitx5_detector.so inside the build folder.
Then, place it into folder .minecraft/.fcitx5-enhancer.

Wayland Support (libwayland_support.so) (Optional)

Requirements:

• All prerequisites from the base library
• Wayland Protocols (libwayland-dev wayland-protocols for Debian)
• PkgConfig Tool (pkg-config for Debian)

Run this in your terminal:

cd Fcitx5-Enhancer/src/native/wayland
mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

Finally you'll see a shared library file named libwayland_support.so inside the build folder.
Simply place it into folder .minecraft/.fcitx5-enhancer.
