Title: Extending Configs
Description: A guide on extending config files with the New Horizons API
Sort_Priority: 5
---
<!-- TODO: When I do systems, some methods will probably be renamed so make sure to update this tutorial -->
# Extending Configs
This guide will explain how to use the API to add new features to New Horizons.
## How Extending Works
Addon developers will add a key to the `extras` object in the root of the config
```json
{
"name": "Wetrock",
"extras": {
"myCoolExtensionData": {
"myCoolExtensionProperty": 2
}
}
}
```
Your mod will then use the API's `GetExtraModule` method to obtain the `myCoolExtensionData` object.
## Extending Planets
You can extend all planets by hooking into the `OnBodyLoaded` event of the API:
```cs
var api = ModHelper.Interactions.TryGetModApi<INewHorizons>("xen.NewHorizons");
api.GetBodyLoadedEvent().AddListener((name) => {
ModHelper.Console.WriteLine($"Body: {name} Loaded!");
});
```
In order to get your extra module, first define the module as a class:
```cs
public class MyCoolExtensionData {
int myCoolExtensionProperty;
}
```
Then, use the `GetExtraModule` method:
```cs
var api = ModHelper.Interactions.TryGetModApi<INewHorizons>("xen.NewHorizons");
api.GetBodyLoadedEvent().AddListener((name) => {
ModHelper.Console.WriteLine($"Body: {name} Loaded!");
var potentialData = api.GetExtraModule(typeof(MyCoolExtensionData), "myCoolExtensionData", name);
// Makes sure the module is valid and not null
if (potentialData is MyCoolExtensionData data) {
ModHelper.Console.WriteLine($"myCoolExtensionProperty for {name} is {data.myCoolExtensionProperty}!");
}
});
```
