Installing InkingCraft (as of Feb 29th, 2024)

1. Clone Inking repository and this repository.
2. Install Inking to Maven local repository: cd inking && mvn install. This will build natives for current platform only (blame .NET NativeAOT).
3. Install InkingCraft to Maven local repository: cd ../inkingcraft && ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal. This will install InkingCraft to local repository so you can use InkingCraft as dependency. It will also build the mod, which can be installed in your mods/ folder (InkingCraft is a client-side mod so there is no need to install on server).
4. Enjoy!

Handling inputs

There are 5 different ways to handle inputs with InkingCraft:

1. Handle unfiltered packets through TabletPacketsCallback, which will call your callbacks in input thread (yes it is multithreaded so beware).
2. Handle filtered packets through TabletPacketsCallback (still call callbacks in input thread).
3. Handle packets in your GUI widget (by implementing TabletElement interface). Contains both sync and async methods.
4. Read the current pointer position in InkingInputManager (contains pointer's last received packet).
5. Register your callback directly to Tablet from Inking, which also call your callback from input thread.
