Logo: Violet Crystal

Violet Crystal is a Rust framework for rust-powered MCBE addon development (Still in development)

Available features:

  • Pack generation
  • Items (all the components are there!)
  • Script support (pairing a folder with .js scripts with the pack)
  • Recipes
  • Blocks*

* - Traits and some components are still not available

Plans:

  • Entities;
  • Animation / Render controllers;

Getting Started

Let's start with configuring a new project by creating a new Pack.

let scripts = Some(ScriptData {
    mc_server_ui_version: "1.2.0-beta".to_string(), // @minecraft/server_ui version
    mc_server_version: "1.11.0-beta".to_string(), // @minecraft/server version
    paired_scripts_folder: r"./src-scripts", // folder from where to get scripts
}); // Script Data. Can be set to None if project doesn't use scripts
let mut pack = Pack::new( // Pack needs to be mutable
    "Violet Crystal".to_string(), // Pack Name
    "violet_crystal".to_string(), // Pack Identifier
    "NaKeR".to_string(), // Pack Author
    "1, 0, 0", // Pack Version. Separated with commas 
    "Nothing here".to_string(), // Pack Description
    true, // Does the project use scripts
    r"*some path*", // Developer BP Folder
    r"*some path*", // Developer RP Folder
    r"*some path*", // Pack Icon
    &scripts, // Script Data which we defined earlier
);

To generate the pack we'll use Pack.generate() and Pack.build_to_dev(). Put this in the end of function.

// Your code here

// Your code here
pack.generate(None); // Generates to "violet_crystal_results" folder.
pack.build_to_dev(); // Copies to specified dev folders.

This will already create a pack. After first generation change pack.generate(None) to pack.generate(Some(false)). This is done so Violet Crystal does not change the manifest thus the UUIDs.

Let's add a new Item!

Use Pack.register_item() to add a new item, which requires an Item parameter.

pack.register_item(Item {
     type_id: Identifier {
         namespace: "vc",
         value: "tutorial"
     }, // Identifier is used to indicate a namespaced value
     components: vec![
     ], // item components are going here
});

This will add new item. But wait... It does not have a texture! To add a texture we first need to register it with Pack.register_item_texture() which requires an ItemAtlasEntry parameter.

pack.register_item_texture(ItemAtlasEntry {
    id: "vc_test".to_string(), // Id to use in Item Icon component
    texture_name: "vc_test".to_string(), // Name to use in file system
    path: r"*some path*".to_string(), // Path to texture on your PC
});

Then let's add it to the item. Remember the components field?

pack.register_item(Item {
     type_id: Identifier {
         namespace: "vc",
         value: "tutorial"
     }, // Identifier is used to indicate a namespaced value
     components: vec![
        &ItemIconComponent {     
            texture: "vc_test", // texture id we've specified earlier
        },                       
     ], // item components are going here
});

This will add the texture to item. All item components are there. I won't document all of them. You can see the docs for them on official MC docs.

Blocks

Adding blocks is also done in similar way. Currently, in Beta 1 you don't need to register texture, just specify the path in texture_set field. It might be changed to a way like items are done for consistency. Example of a block

pack.register_block(Block {                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  
    type_id: Identifier {                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
        namespace: "vc",                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
        value: "test"                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        
    },
