Create blockstate from string


LegendLength

Recommended Posts

I've searched for a few hours but can't find a way to create a blockstate from a string.  I want the user to specify a blockstate in the configuration file and then load that into the mod to create that block.

 

For example I want them to be able to create a grass block with snow on top (blockstate property 'snowy' = true).  There's more to the design but that's the gist of this specific problem.

 

I can convert from blockstate to NBTTagCompound but can't go that extra step of converting a string into NBT.  I considered allowing the user to write out separate key + value pairs in the configuration but it's also difficult to work out the type needed for each property (something that NBTTagCompound.readBlockState() seems able to do).

 

I'm surprised there isn't some common method to do this as I imagine other mods would need to read blockstate that's written the user.

The way I do it is to simply use the toString method on blockstates to turn them into strings, and then use the command block parser to parse them. I use it so that users can copy blockstates from their debug overlay and add them manually. It works pretty well, but if you can use a better system, do.

Versions below 1.14.4 are no longer supported on this forum. Use the latest version to receive support.

When asking support remember to include all relevant log files (logs are found in .minecraft/logs/), code if applicable and screenshots if possible.

Only download mods from trusted sites like CurseForge (minecraft.curseforge.com). A list of bad sites can be found here, with more information available at stopmodreposts.org

That also looks good.

 

I ended up using JsonToNBT class as suggested and it turned out fairly straightforward.

 

Took me a while to realize quotes are needed for some values but not others.  So i decided to just add quotes around every value and allow the user to enter key value pairs without quotes.  Otherwise they'd have to escape the quotes in the mod's JSON configuration file.

 

Quote

    // logs errors and returns default state
    protected IBlockState blockStateDerive(String customBlockStateText, IBlockState defaultBlockState, Log log) {
        // deserialize block state text to nbt
        NBTTagCompound customTag = null;

        Optional<String> customBlockStateTextFull = blockStateTextDecorate(customBlockStateText, log);
        if (!customBlockStateTextFull.isPresent()) {
            // malformed
            return defaultBlockState;
        }

        try {
            customTag = JsonToNBT.getTagFromJson(customBlockStateTextFull.get());
        } catch (NBTException e) {
            // log and ignore
            log.error("Invalid block state \"" + customBlockStateText + "\" for custom fill block \""
                    + defaultBlockState.getBlock().getLocalizedName() + "\".");

            return defaultBlockState;
        }

        assert customTag != null;

        // merge with default nbt
        NBTTagCompound defaultTag = NBTUtil.writeBlockState(new NBTTagCompound(), defaultBlockState);
        defaultTag.merge(customTag);

        // deserialize nbt to block state
        IBlockState newBlockState = NBTUtil.readBlockState(defaultTag);


        return newBlockState;
    }

 

customBlockStateText is text such as "facing:east" and blockStateTextDecorate() is a little method that formats it to the liking of JsonToNBT.  Turns it into {Properties:{facing:"east"}} .

    • Hello. I've been having a problem when launching minecraft forge. It just doesn't open the game, and leaves me with this "(exit code 1)" error. Both regular and optifine versions of minecraft launch just fine, tried both with 1.18.2 and 1.20.1. I can assure that my drivers are updated so that can't be it, and i've tried using Java 17, 18 and 21 to no avail. Even with no mods installed, the thing won't launch. I'll leave the log here, although it's in spanish: https://jmp.sh/s/FPqGBSi30fzKJDt2M1gc My specs are this: Ryzen 3 4100 || Radeon R9 280x || 16gb ram || Windows 10 I'd appreciate any help, thank you in advance.
    • Hey, Me and my friends decided to start up a Server with "a few" mods, the last few days everything went well we used all the items we wanted. Now our Game crashes the moment we touch a Lava Bucket inside our Inventory. It just instantly closes and gives me an "Alc Cleanup"  Crash screen (Using GDLauncher). I honestly dont have a clue how to resolve this error. If anyone could help id really appreciate it, I speak German and Englisch so you can choose whatever you speak more fluently. Thanks in Advance. Plus I dont know how to link my Crash Report help for that would be nice too whoops
    • I hosted a minecraft server and I modded it, and there is always an error on the console which closes the server. If someone knows how to repair it, it would be amazing. Thank you.
