Creating a new Datapack

In order to create a new datapack you first have to import MCpypack.

from MCpypack import *

Then you create a new datapack object using the Datapack class.

The Datapack class takes 5 arguments.
Out of them 3 are required and 2 are optional.

• Required:
  • name: Name of the datapack.
  • description: Description of the datapack.
  • version: The Minecraft version the datapack should be created for.

my_pack: Datapack = Datapack(
    name="My Datapack",
    description="My first datapack",
    version="26.1"
)

• Optional:
  • relative_icon_path: Relative path to an icon that should be used for your datapack.
  • relative_export_dir: Directory to export the datapack to. Default is export/.

In the end you have to export your datapack using the export method.

my_pack.export()

There are 2 optional parameters for this method.

• overwrite: Whether the old version should be overwritten (True) or get a different name (False). Default is True.
• zip: Whether a .zip should be created. Default is True.
