Shaped crafting

File: data/<namespace>/recipe/<path>.json.

hbm:crafting_shaped uses the same JSON on Fabric and NeoForge; NTM's bundled shaped crafting recipes use it. Its pattern matches after trimming empty borders and allows horizontal mirroring. Input-state rules bind to the pattern symbols through either transformation. Inputs accept pristine stacks by default.

Fields

Field	Meaning and default	Range
`type`	Selects the `hbm:crafting_shaped` recipe format.
`pattern`	1–3 equal-width rows, each at most 3 characters. Spaces represent empty cells; at least one cell must contain an ingredient.
`key`	Maps each pattern symbol to an ingredient; every key symbol must appear in the pattern.
`<symbol>`	One non-space character mapped to an ingredient used in the pattern.
`result`	Output stack template. A result carrier requires count 1.
`id`	Item ID.
`count`Optional	Stack size; default 1.	[1, 99]
`components`Optional	Item-component values.
`input_state`Optional	Input-state rules keyed by pattern symbol; default empty.
`<selector>`	Pattern symbol or zero-based ingredient index mapped to an input rule.
`<selector>.components`Optional	Exact component values required on this input; default empty.
`<selector>.predicates`Optional	Registered component predicates required on this input; default empty.
`<selector>.preserve`Optional	State destination: result or remainder. Omit to consume only pristine or explicitly required state.
`category`Optional	Recipe-book category: `building`, `redstone`, `equipment`, or `misc`; default `misc`.
`group`Optional	Recipe-book group string; default empty.
`show_notification`Optional	Shows the recipe-unlock notification; default `true`.

Each input_state selector must name a symbol in key. preserve: result requires exactly one occurrence of that symbol in the pattern. Loader conditions can wrap the recipe.

Example:

Shipped steel-to-desh crate upgrade, data/hbm/recipe/crate_desh.json. Four desh plates surround the Steel Crate; the Desh Crate retains that crate's component changes, including its contents, name and lock.
