Changelog

[2.0.0] - 3/7/2023

Major refactoring, bug fixes, and improvements across the board.

Added

• The bed new entity --type projectile option has been added. This will automatically create an entity that can be fired as a projectle.
• The bed new item --type usable option has been added. This will automatically create a new function, and a player animation controller that will invoke that function when using the item.
• The bed new function --origin option has been added, this provides a comment specifying who @s is withing the function context.
• The bed world export --type option has been added, and can be specified as world or template to create a .mcworld or .mctemplate file respectively.
• The bed world new subcommand now has the additional options: --bpack, --rpack, and --experimental to streamline the process of adding packs to a new world.
• Any command that writes a .json file now supports the $n keyword, replacing instances where $n appears with the filename. For example bed entity --file **/*.json --overwrite {minecraft:type_family:{family:[\"$n\"]}} would overwrite the family type of every entity in the project with the name of its file.

Changed

• The bed new entity --type option has been updated to accept full words rather than single characters.
• The bed new entity command will now automatically create a placeholder spawn egg texture when used with the passive or hostile --type options.
• The bed new item --type projectile option now will automatically create a new projectile entity, a player animation controller to detect interacting with the item, and a component group to spawn the new projectile on the player.
• The bed world export and bed world packs commands now accept either and index or a world name to target the world. When using a name, it will target the first name in the worlds folder who's levelname.txt file matches the argument.
• Any command that writes an entry to en_US.lang will no longer add an entry if that entry is already present in the file.
• Many functions exposed to the API have had their parameters re-written to use interfaces. This is a breaking change.
• The bed new block --emissive argument now accepts values [1-15] instead of [0.0-1.0] to match the new minecraft:light_emission key that replaced the old minecraft:block_light_emission in block files.

Fixed

• Fixed issue where worlds created with bed new world always had a seed of 0.
• Fixed issue where temporary folders created with bed new world weren't properly cleaned up.
