Registering your Mod with Flux API

To register your mod with Flux API you need to register a couple of methods with it. an example mod could look like this:

public class ExampleMod implements ModInitializer {

    public static String MOD_ID = "examplemod";
    public static Identifier MOD_NAME = new Identifier(MOD_ID, "name");

    @Override
    public void onInitialize() {
        FluxRegistries.EVENT_BUS.register(this);
        FluxRegistries.ON_INITIALIZE.register(MOD_NAME, this::onInit);
    }

    public void onInit() {
        ExampleBlockEntity.register();
    }

    @Subscribe
    public void onEvent(OnRegisterBlockEvent event) {
        event.registerBlock(() -> new DataModBlock("diamond_block", new ResourceLocation(MOD_ID, "blocks/diamond_block.json")));
        event.registerBlock(Bedrock::new);
    }

    @Subscribe
    public void onEvent(OnRegisterLanguageEvent event) {
        event.registerLanguage(new ResourceLocation(MOD_ID, "languages/en-US.json").load());
    }

}

we have our main entrypoint onInitialize in which we register our mod as an event subscriber and an onInit method. Flux APIs EventBus registers our mod to OnRegisterBlockEvent and OnRegisterLanguageEvent, we also hook into the mod load cycle using onInit. there also exists FluxRegistries#ON_PRE_INITIALIZE and FluxRegistries#ON_POST_INITIALIZE
