ADDONS DOCUMENTATION
Version: 1.11.0.3

This is documentation for a beta release of Minecraft. New features, components, and capabilities in this release are not final and might change without notice before the final release.
Be sure to check the documentation once the release is out of beta if your add-on isn't working properly. Resource and Behavior Packs created for the beta are not guaranteed to work on the final release.

manifest.json

The manifest file contains all the basic information about the pack that Minecraft needs to identify it. The tables below contain all the components of the manifest, their individual properties, and what they mean.
Name Description
format_version This defines the current version of the manifest. Don't change this unless you have a good reason to
header This is the heading of the manifest and is required for the manifest to be valid.
Name Type Description
name String This is the name of the pack as it appears within Minecraft
description String This is a short description of the pack. It will appear in the game below the name of the pack. We recommend keeping it to 1-2 lines.
uuid String This is a special type of identifier that uniquely identifies this pack from any other pack. UUIDs are written in the format xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx where each x is a hexadecimal value (0-9 or a-f). We recommend using an online service to generate this and guarantee their uniqueness (just bing UUID Generator to find some)
version Vector [a, b, c] This is the version of your pack in the format [majorVersion, minorVersion, revision].
The version number is used when importing a pack that has been imported before. The new pack will replace the old one if the version is higher, and ignored if it's the same or lower
min_engine_version String This is the minimum version of the game that this pack was written for. This helps the game identify whether any backwards compatibility is needed for your pack. You should always use the highest version currently available when creating packs
modules This section describes the modules that comprise the pack. Each entry here defines one of the kinds of contents of the pack.
Name Type Description
uuid String This is a unique identifier for the module in the same format as the pack's UUID in the header. This should be different from the pack's UUID, and different for every module
description String This is a short description of the module. This is not user-facing at the moment but is a good place to remind yourself why the module is defined
version Vector [a, b, c] This is the version of the module in the same format as the pack's version in the header. This can be used to further identify changes in your pack
type String This is the type of the module. Can be any of the following: resources, data, client_data, interface, world_template
dependencies This section describes the packs that this pack depends on in order to work. Any packs defined here will be automatically added to the world when this one is added if they are present, or an error will be shown if they aren't. Each entry has the following parameters:
Name Type Description
uuid String This is the unique identifier of the pack that this pack depends on. It needs to be the exact same UUID that the pack has defined in the header section of it's manifest file
version Vector [a, b, c] This is the specific version of the pack that your pack depends on. Should match the version the other pack has in its manifest file
capabilities These are the different features that the pack makes use of that aren't necessarily enabled by default.
Name Description
experimental_custom_ui Allows HTML files in the pack to be used for custom UI, and scripts in the pack to call and manipulate custom UI
chemistry Allows the pack to add, change or replace Chemistry functionality
metadata This section contains additional data about your pack and is otherwise optional.
Name Type Description
authors String Name of the author(s) of the pack
license String The license of the pack
url String The home website of your pack

Geometry

Blocks

Parameters

Name Type Default Value Description
format_version String 0.0.0.0 Version of the block geometry being used. This is used to determine if backwards compatibility is needed
parent String Parent model of this model
materials List #0 List of materials used by this model
elements List List of elements that make up the geometry of this block
Name Type Default Value Description
name String Name of the element
parent String Name of the parent element of this element. Pivot and box positions are made relative to the parent element's pivot
rotation Vector [a, b, c] [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] The rotation of this element about its pivot
pivot Vector [a, b, c] [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] Position in model space of the pivot point of the element. This is used as the "center" position of the element, as well as the point around which to rotate
material String The material of this element if different from the block's
boxes List List of cubes that make up the geometry of this element
Name Type Default Value Description
origin Vector [a, b, c] [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] The position of the center of the box relative to the geometry
size Vector [a, b, c] [ 0, 0, 0 ] Scale of the box in the x, y and z coordinates. A typical block is of scale 1, 1, 1
material String The material of this box if different from the element's
faces List List of the 6 faces of the box. If specified, there MUST be 6 faces (front, back, left side, right side, top, bottom)
Name Type Default Value Description
material String The material of this face if different from the box's
uv Vector [a, b, c, d] [ 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0 ] Texture coordinates of this face, given as min x, min y, max x, max y withg values between 0.0 and 1.0
rotation Decimal 0.0 UV Rotation of this face. Only acceptable values are 0, 90 and 270 degrees. This allows reusing a texture and just rotating it for different faces
