About DragNSounds API
From ModrinthA simple API to upload custom sounds or music to the server and let them play in realtime to any player at any position without the need for a resourcepack.
DragNSounds is a simple Minecraft library mod that makes it possible to provide custom sounds on the server side and allow every player to hear them anywhere without resource packs. The API uses Minecraft's native sound engine and allows you to upload your own sounds to the server, as well as manage the uploaded files and manipulate sounds during playback with new features.
Once added to your own project, the API can be used very easily through a few simple methods. The library can also be used as a standalone mod using the built-in commands, although the options are very limited then.
