Itemstrings are the internal names for items, blocks, nodes (everything which can be stored in an inventory).

Syntax

An usual itemstring consists of a the name of the mod where the item originates from followed by a “:” followed by an item name. All itemstrings are case sensitive.

<mod_name>:<item_name>

Examples:

  • default:torch — a torch (from mod “default”)
  • default:dirtdirt (from mod “default”)
  • farming:breadbread (from mod “farming”)
  • wool:orange — orange wool (from mod “wool”)
  • screwdriver:screwdriverscrewdriver (from mod “screwdriver”)

There are itemstrings which don’t follow the syntax rules, see #Special itemstrings.

Usages

Itemstrings can be used as arguments used for the /give and /giveme commands.

Example: /giveme default:torch—give yourself a torch
