NBT Manipulator

This is a Kotlin/Java library that allows you to read and write NBT files and data in a clean and simple way.

Can be used both for Minecraft Java and Minecraft Bedrock Edition NBT structures.

Here you can find the library documentation:

• Java Documentation
• Kotlin Documentation

You may also want to see the changelog file to be aware of all changes in the tool that may impact you.

TIP: If you are using NbtList with Kotlin, add a import br.com.gamemods.nbtmanipulator.* for easy list management.

For example:

val list = listOf(2,3,4,5,6).toNbtList()
list += 7
check(7 in list)
list -= 7
check(7 !in list)

Adding to your project

The library is shared in the maven center, so you don't need to declare any custom repository.

Examples

val compound = NbtCompound()
compound["A string tag"] = "The string tag value"
compound["An int tag"] = 2
val byteValue: Byte = 3
compound["An byte tag"] = byteValue

println(compound.getString("A string tag"))
println(compound.getInt("A string tag"))
println(compound.getInt("An int tag"))
println(compound.getNullableByte("An byte tag"))

println(compound.getNullableStringList("This is missing.."))

val otherConstructor = NbtCompound(
    "a" to NbtString("string"),
    "b" to NbtList(listOf(NbtDouble(0.0), NbtDouble(1.1)))
)

println(otherConstructor.getDoubleList("b"))
