# Gloppers!
Gloppers (**gl**ob h**oppers**) is a Minecraft mod that lets you filter your hoppers by renaming them with glob patterns.
The idea comes from [LiveOverflow's Minecraft lets play](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLhixgUqwRTjwvBI-hmbZ2rpkAl4lutnJG), where these were silently implemented on his server to make his storage system easier to build.
## Usage
First, install the mod. This mod is serverside only and will do nothing on the client (unless you're in singleplayer).
Once it's installed, rename a hopper in an anvil, prefixing with an exclamation mark. Add globs matching the IDs of the items you want to filter for, separated by commas.
Some example patterns:
- `!*_ore` - Matches all ores
- `!iron_*` - Matches all iron items
- `!totem_of_undying` - Matches only the Totem of Undying
- `!*oak*,*cherry*` - Matches all oak and cherry wood items
Note that you must use the internal identifier of the items, and not the item's display name (e.g. `writable_book` instead of `Book and Quill`). Don't add the namespace (the "minecraft" part).
## Advantages over vanilla
- Only materials required to use are iron and wood (no redstone)
- 1x1x1 footprint, compared to the popular 4x3x1 design
- Ability to filter unstackable items
- No junk items required
## Usage in storage systems
Gloppers are most useful in storage systems. Instead of requiring redstone circuits that take up space, you can instead just design it like so:
Items will only be sucked up from the top row to the bottom glopper if the pattern is matched.
## Notes with mod compatibility
- Lithium conflicts with Gloppers, and you need to turn its hopper optimizations off in `lithium.properties` (`mixin.block.hopper=false`).
