Examples

Block

from mcaddon import *

blk = Block('test:on_interact_change_state_block')
blk.add_component(OnInteractComponent(event='test_event'))
blk.add_event('test_event', SetBlockProperty({'custom:direction': "1"}))
blk.save('block.json')

Item

from mcaddon import *

blk = Item('minecraft:blaze_rod')
blk.add_component(FuelComponent(12.0))
blk.add_component(MaxStackSizeComponent(64))
blk.add_component(IconComponent('blaze_rod'))
blk.add_component(HandEquippedComponent(True))
blk.add_component(DisplayNameComponent('Blaze Rod'))
blk.save('item.json')

Command-line interface

usage: mcaddon [-h] [-V] [-W [<file>]]

options:
