The different mechanics available by default and their configurations sorted by category
Miscellaneous
Durability
This allows you to change the durability of an item created with Oraxen. Minecraft vanilla wasn't made to handle that kind of modifications, this is why this system is not perfect. You'll not see the good  durability on your item, it will just work as a percentage. What that means is that if for example you create a pickaxe based off the wooden pickaxe (which has 59 of durability by default) and you change it to 5900, you'll still see 59 of durability on your item. But you'll need to break 100 blocks in order to lose of one durability. The cool thing is that the displayed bar will be updated correctly.
Per item configuration
There are two options available : ratio and fixed_amount. You can put only one of these two options on the same item. Ratio allows you to repair a percentage of your item (0.15 will repair 15% of maximum durability while 1.0 will repair it to 100%). Fixe amount repairs a fixed amount of your item durability (put 10 if you want to add 10 durability points to your item for example).
durability:
  value: 5000 #diamond sword is 1561 by default
Repair
This mechanic allows you to use an item to repair another one (which uses vanilla durability or oraxen custom). By default this mechanic is binded to iron, gold and diamond cogs. To use them you just need to click on the item you want to repair.
Per item configuration
repair:
  ratio: 0.10 # 10%
  fixed_amount: 10 # or 10 durability points
Global configuration
If you enable oraxen_durability_only, this mechanic will only work with items using oraxen Durability mechanic.
repair:
  enabled: true
  oraxen_durability_only: false
Commands
This allows you to execute commands (as the console, a player or op player). If this option is not often the most elegant it has the merit of simplifying a lot of things. You can create a cooldown between usages, check if the player has a specific permission and use the item (understand decrease its amount by one when the command is performed).
Per item configuration
commands:
  cooldown: 5 # example cooldown in seconds. This is optional
  permission: "my.awesome.perm" # required permission. This is optional
  one_usage: true # should the amount decrease when used? Default: false
  console:
    # e.g. to kill the player
    - "kill %p%"
  player:
    # e.g. the player performs /spawn
    - "spawn"
  opped_player:
    # e.g. the player gives himself a diamond sword
    - "give diamond_sword 1"
