Commands

Commands are advanced functions activated by typing certain strings of text.

Usage
In a regular Minecraft client or the stand alone client, commands are entered via Minecraft's chat window, which is displayed by pressing the key (default) or  key. Using the key will also enter the forward slash that commands require as a prefix, so it is a useful shortcut. Pressing while entering commands cycles through possible commands or arguments.

Commands may also be entered in a multiplayer server's console, but are not preceded by a when entered this way. Commands in command blocks can be preceded by a slash, but it is not required. Commands in a command block may also require an optional argument, usually a player's username.

The majority of commands are only available in the following situations:


 * In a Minecraft multiplayer server game, entered by an operator or command block.
 * In other multiplayer games, entered by the player who opened a LAN game with cheats enabled, or is hosting their own multiplayer server
 * In singleplayer, if cheats were enabled at world creation (via the "More World Options..." button).

Some player commands are also available in singleplayer even when cheats are not enabled.

Note: In singleplayer worlds where cheats were not enabled at creation, they can be enabled on a temporary basis by opening the current game session to LAN play ( -> "Open to LAN", then "Allow Cheats" button and "Start LAN World"). You do not actually need to be on a LAN or have others join. This is not permanent, but will allow the use of commands until you quit the world, and changes you make via commands (items spawned, etc.) will be saved with the world. You can do this each time you start playing the world again. Note that this will disable game pausing for the duration, so while open to LAN, you should get somewhere safe or reload your world before using the Game Menu. Remember that you can disable your LAN world by reloading the world.

Tilde notation
Many commands allow relative coordinates to be specified using tildes. A number following a tilde is an offset from something rather than a coordinate. The sign of the offset specifies whether to go in the poitive or negative direction for that axis. A single tilde by itself is shorthand for.

For example,  will teleport yourself to the coordinate (0, 64, 0), while   will teleport yourself to a position +3 blocks in the "x" direction (i.e., east), keep your current height, and -3 blocks in the "z" direction (i.e., north).

Usually you can mix absolute coordinates with relative coordinates. For example,  will keep your "x" and "z" coordinates the same, but teleport you to absolute height 64.

The origin for the offset depends on the command. For example, for the offset is from the starting position. Other common offsets include from the position of the command's execution or from another coordinate specified by the command.

Target selectors
In most commands where a player may be specified as an argument, it is possible to "target" one or more players satisfying certain conditions instead of specifying players by name. To target players by condition, choose a target selector variable and, optionally, one or more target selector arguments to modify the conditions to be satisfied.

For example, to change the game mode of all players on team Red to creative mode, instead of specifying them by name, you might write:

Target selector variables
A target selector variable identifies the broad category of targets to select. There are three variables:


 * Target the nearest player.
 * Target the nearest player.


 * Target a random player.
 * Target a random player.


 * Target all players.
 * Target all players.

Target selector variables can be used by themselves, or can be further modified with target selector arguments.

The following target selector variable has appeared in but has not yet been released in a full version:


 * Target all entities (including players).
 * Target all entities (including players).

Target selector arguments
After using a target selector, you can optionally use arguments to modify the set of targets selected. When used with  or , arguments narrow down the number of targets from the full list to a specific few. When used with  or , arguments narrow the number of targets down from the full list to a smaller set from which the nearest or random player is selected.

Add arguments as a comma-separated list contained within square brackets after the target selector variable:



Spaces are not allowed around the brackets, equal signs, or commas, and only commas may be used to separate argument-value pairs.


 * Selecting targets by coordinate




 * Selects only targets at that exact position (ignoring fractions). Use tilde notation to specify a coordinate relative to the command's execution position.


 * Selecting targets by radius




 * Selects only targets within specified radius/i from the position where the command was executed.  specifies the maximum radius that targets can be from the coordinate, and   specifies the minimum radius. It is possible to use either without the other (  to specify targets within a certain radius, and   to specify targets further than a certain radius).


 * If coordinate and radius/i are both defined, the radius will center on the coordinate rather than the postion of the command's execution. By using a very distant coordinate and a very large radius, it is possible to simulate a near-linear edge to use to specify targets.


 * If the first few arguments (up to four) are specified simply as values without identifying the arguments, they are assumed to be, in order,,  ,  , and  . Thus, the following two commands are identical:




 * Selecting targets by game mode




 * Selects only targets with the specified game mode. Permitted value for M are:


 * : all game modes
 * : creative mode
 * : survival mode
 * : adventure mode


 * In the, M may also be  for spectator mode.


 * Selecting targets by count




 * Selects only the specified number of targets. When used with  or , this argument defaults to 1, so using a higher number will increase the number of nearest or random targets returned. When used with a negative value, the order of targets is reversed (for example,   will return the three farthest targets). When used without position selection, targets are returned in the order of creation (for example,   will select the first target created and   will select the last three targets created).


 * Selecting targets by experience level




 * Selects only targets with no more than L experience levels.




 * Selects only targets with no less than LM experience levels.


 * Selecting targets by score




 * Selects only targets with a score in objective name of no more than SCORE.




 * Selects only targets with a score in objective name of no less than SCOREMIN.


 * Selecting targets by team




 * Selects only targets on team TEAM.




 * Selects only targets not on team TEAM.


 * Selecting targets by name




 * Selects only targets named NAME.




 * Selects only targets not named NAME.

The following target selector arguments have appeared in but have not yet been released in a full version:


 * Selecting targets by volume




 * Selects only targets within the volume defined as starting from the location where the command was executed and extending DX blocks in the positive "x" direction (i.e., south), DY blocks in the positive "y" direction (i.e., upwards), and DZ blocks in the positive "z" direction (i.e., east). All values must be positive. If an initial coordinate is specified with the,  , and   arguments, that will be used instead of the position of the command's execution for the lower northwestern corner ( ,  , and   still specify distances from that coordinate; they do not specify a separate coordinate).


 * It is possible to combine selection by radius and selection by volume, in which case the command will only select targets within the overlap of both regions (within certain radiuses of the volume's lower northwestern corner and not outside the defined volume).


 * Selecting targets by vertical rotation


 * Vertical rotation values vary from -90.0 facing straight up to 90.0 facing straight down (thus vertical rotation values increase with rotation downwards).




 * Selects only targets with a maximum vertical rotation of RX.




 * Selects only targets with a minimum vertical rotation of RXM.


 * Selecting targets by horizontal rotation


 * Horizontal rotation values vary from -180.0 (facing due north), to -90.0 (facing due east), to 0.0 (facing due south), to 90.0 (facing due west), to 179.9 (just west of due north) before wrapping back to -180.0 (thus horizontal rotation values increase with rotation to the right, or clockwise viewed from above).




 * Selects only targets with a maximum horizontal rotation of RY.




 * Selects only targets with a minimum horizontal rotation of RYM.


 * Selecting targets by type


 * Primarily only used with the  variable (because all players are  ). "Entity types" are the entity IDs used to identify different types of entities internally (see chunk format).




 * Selects only targets of the specific entity type.




 * Selects only targets not of the specific entity type.

Data tags
NBT tags can be specified for items and entities created with the, and other commands. Data tags are data structures. The format is JSON, although it is not strict (lenient). The data is represented as a comma separated list of pairs. Each pair has the format. The key is the name of the NBT tag and the value is the data that should be assigned to it. Tag names are case-sensitive, and whitespace outside keys or values is ignored.

The value can be different types:


 * String is a piece of text, can be wrapped with double-quotes. Double quotes have to be used if the String contains commas, curly braces or square brackets. To use double-quotes inside Strings, the quote is escaped by a backslash . When using most commands, escaping is disabled (except for double quotes) and keys must not be quoted (probably a bug ). This causes an issue where trailing backslashes do not work (as do any other things that need to be escaped), even when escaped properly. The reason is that it escapes the quotation mark after the string which causes a malformed JSON object.
 * Number are 1 or more digits that can have a leading sign ( / ). They're classified in Integers, that don't have a decimal mark, Doubles, that uses a dot as a decimal mark, and Floats, that also have   appended after the number. Examples:  ;  ; &
 * List (or 'Array') is multiple, comma separated values wrapped with square brackets. The containing values do not need to be of the same type.
 * Boolean can either be  or , but using Numbers works, too. When using numbers, 0 is false, everything else is true.
 * Compound or 'Object' is a container for data structures (as explained above). They are wrapped with curly braces.
 * Notice: The Data tag itself is a Compound. Example: 


 * null This is a placeholder an empty value. Do not put quotes.

When commands such as /testfor, /testforblock, and /clear are used to match NBT tags, they only check for the presence of the given tags in the target entity/block/item. This means that the entity/block/item may have additional tags and will still match. This is true even for lists/arrays: the order of a list is not acknowledged, and as long as every requested element is in the list, it will match even if there are additional elements.

For a complete listing of defined tags (though not all can be modified by commands), see:
 * Blocks
 * Entities
 * Mobs
 * Projectiles (arrows, fireballs, thrown potions, etc.)
 * Items (items on the ground)
 * Vehicles (boats, minecarts, etc.)
 * Dynamic Tiles (primed TNT, falling sand/gravel)
 * Other Entities (firework rockets, paintings, and item frames)
 * Tile Entities (chests, furnaces, command blocks, mob spawners, signs, etc.)
 * Player
 * Items (items in player's inventory or containers)

For a complete list of identifiers, see:
 * blocks
 * items
 * entities
 * enchantments
 * status/potion effects
 * attributes

Raw JSON Text
The command uses a specific lenient JSON format for raw chat messages. Similar to the NBT format notation above, concepts such as Strings, Objects (Compounds), and Lists are used to represent the various properties of raw chat.

For a direct tutorial to tellraw commands, see this thread. For a tool to easily create tellraw commands, see this. Note that both links are external to the Minecraft Wiki and may be outdated.

The format of "" is a JSON Object which supports the following (mostly optional) elements:
 * The base chat component Object
 * : A string representing raw text to display directly in chat. Note that selectors such as "@a" and "@p" are not translated into player names; use selector instead.
 * : A list of additional objects, sharing the same format as the base object.
 * A list element with the same format as the base object (recursive). Note that all properties of this object are inherited by children except for text, extra, translate, with, and score. This means that children will retain the same formatting and events as this object unless they explicitly override them.
 * : The color to render this text in. Valid values are "black", "dark_blue", "dark_green", "dark_aqua", "dark_red", "dark_purple", "gold", "gray", "dark_gray", "blue", "green", "aqua", "red", "light_purple", "yellow", "white", and "reset" (cancels out the effects of colors used by parent objects). Technically, "bold", "underline", "italic", "strikethrough", and "obfuscated" are also accepted, but it may be better practice to use the tags below for such formats.
 * : Boolean (true/false) - whether to render text in bold. Defaults to false.
 * : Boolean (true/false) - whether to render text underlined. Defaults to false.
 * : Boolean (true/false) - whether to render text in italics. Defaults to false.
 * : Boolean (true/false) - whether to render text with a strikethrough. Defaults to false.
 * : Boolean (true/false) - whether to render text obfuscated. Defaults to false.
 * : When the text is shift-clicked by a player, this string will be inserted in their chat input. It will not overwrite any existing text the player was writing.
 * : Allows for events to occur when the player clicks on text.
 * : The action to perform when clicked. Valid values are "open_url" (opens value as a URL in the player's default web browser), "run_command" (has value entered in chat as though the player typed it themselves. This can be used to run commands, but the command will fail if the player does not have the required permissions to use it), and "suggest_command" (similar to "run_command", but the text only appears in the player's chat input, and is not automatically entered. Unlike insertion, this will replace the existing contents of the chat input).
 * : The URL, chat, or command used by the specified action. Note that commands must be prefixed with the usual "/" slash.
 * : Allows for a tooltip to be displayed when the player hovers their mouse over text.
 * : The type of tooltip to show. Valid values are "show_text" (shows raw JSON text), "show_item" (shows the tooltip of an item which can have NBT tags), "show_achievement" (shows formatted text describing an achievement or statistic. Normal achievement names are green, final achievement names are dark_purple, and statistic names are gray. In addition, a description is given for achievements), and "show_entity" (shows an entity's name, possibly its type, and its UUID).
 * : The formatting of this tag varies depending on the action. Note that "show_text" is the only action to support an Object as the value; all other action values are Strings and should thus be wrapped in quotes.
 * "show_text": Can be either a raw String of text, or an Object with the same formatting as this base object. Note that clickEvent and hoverEvent do not function within the tooltip, but the formatting and extra tags still work.
 * "show_item": A string formatted like item NBT data. Contains the "id" tag, and optionally the "Damage" tag and "tag" tag (which is the same compound used as "dataTag" in the command).
 * "show_achievement": The achievement or statistic's name. This uses the same format as achievement and statistic Scoreboard objective criteria and the command.
 * "show_entity": A string formatted like a compound with the string values "type" (such as "Zombie"), "name", and "id" (should be an entity UUID, but can actually be any string).
 * : The translation identifier of text to be displayed using the player's selected language. This identifier is the same as the identifiers found in lang files from assets or resource packs. The translated text will only be displayed if the text string is not used.
 * : A list of chat component arguments and/or string arguments to be used by translate.
 * The arguments are text corresponding to the arguments used by the translation string in the current language, in order (for example, the first list element corresponds to "%1$s" in a translation string).
 * : A compound for displaying a player's score in an objective. Displays nothing if the player is not tracked in the given objective. Ignored completely if text or translate is present.
 * : The name of the player whose score should be displayed. Selectors (such as @p) can be used, in addition to "fake" player names created by the scoreboard system. In addition, if the name is "*", it will show the player's own score (for example,  will show every online player their own score in the "obj" objective). Note that non-player entity scores (such as @e[type=Cow]) do not show, even if the entity has been given a score in the objective.
 * : The internal name of the objective to display the player's score in.
 * : Optional. If present, this value is used regardless of what the score would have been.
 * : A string containing a selector (@p,@a,@r, or @e) and, optionally, selector arguments. Unlike text, the selector will be translated into the correct player/entity names. If more than one player/entity is detected by the selector, it will be displayed in a form such as 'Name1 and Name2' or 'Name1, Name2, Name3, and Name4'. Ignored completely if text, translate, or score is present.

Due to the extra tag, the above format may be recursively nested to produce very complex and functional text strings. However, a raw json string doesn't have to be complicated at all: virtually all properties are optional and may be left out.

To be valid, each object must have at least either text, translate, or score (everything else is optional). As a matter of shorthand, however, the entire Object may be substituted for a String. In this case, that string will be considered the value of the text property. For example,  is equivalent to. This shorthand substitution is valid anywhere a raw text object is required (including the base  argument of, the elements of the extra list, and the value of a "show_text" hover_event).

Finally, unlike other commands using JSON, Strings support Unicode via the notation , where #### is the Unicode hexadecimal number for the desired character.

 * Success Conditions


 * A command's Success Conditions must be met in order for the game to consider the command "successful". This is used to determine a variety of things, such as the output of a redstone comparator feeding from command block with a command. Note that not all "successful" commands actually do something, and not all "failed" commands fail to do something useful.


 * Restrictions


 * Describes restrictions on who can use the command or in what context.


 * None: The command can be used by any player in any world. The following commands have no restrictions:, , , and.


 * Operator: The command may only be used by an operator or in singleplayer mode with cheats enabled. On multiplayer servers, the results of these commands are broadcast to other ops online.


 * Multiplayer: The command is only available on a multiplayer server. The following commands are restricted to multiplayer servers:, , , , , , , , , , , , , ,.
 * No multiplayer commands permit target selectors in arguments and, except for, multiplayer commands cannot be used in command blocks. Many of these commands can be used on players who have never been to the server, or even on names which are not (or cannot be) registered as Minecraft accounts.


 * No command blocks: The command cannot be executed by a command block.

 * Future


 * Two additional arguments have appeared in development versions, but have not yet appeared in a full release:


 * maxCount (optional)
 * Specifies the maximum number of items to be cleared. If not specified, or if, clears all items. If  , does not clear items, but returns successfully if there were items that could have been cleared (allowing detection of items rather than clearing of items).


 * dataTag (optional)
 * Specifies the data tags of the item to be cleared (only items matching the specified data tags will be cleared — data tags not specified will not be considered).


 * In addition, data can be set to  to ignore data and clear all blocks of a certain id when maxCount or dataTag must be specified but data needs to be ignored.


 * For example, to clear all golden swords with the "Sharpness I" enchantment from the nearest player, irregardless of their damage value:

Effects have a limit of 1,000,000 seconds, and the  field has a limit of 255. Effect id's can be found on the potion effects page. Setting   to 0 clears this effect. If you put the amplifier to a number of a variably high value, it will not give the desired amplifier. Setting   to true hides effect particles, if value not given, defaults to false. As of 14w28a you can now use the effect name instead of the id. Example (/effect @p minecraft:haste 60 1 True) this will give the nearest player Haste II  for 1 minute (60 seconds).

 * destroy - Destroys any blocks within the target location, dropping them as item entities, and replacing them with "TileName".
 * keep - Only replaces air blocks found in the fill area with "TileName".
 * hollow - Wraps only the outer layer of the fill area, creating a square box of "TileName", and replacing all blocks inside of the box area with air. Containers inside of the box will drop their contents, but not their block.
 * outline - Wraps only the outer layer of the fill area, creating a square box of "TileName". (Leaves all blocks leftover inside the box area alone and doesn't destroy them)


 * Success Conditions

playsound
Plays a sound.


 * Syntax




 * Description


 * Plays the selected sound to the selected player. The value of sound is any event defined in sounds.json (for example, mob.pig.say). Note that Resource Packs may add their own events to sounds.json; the command will successfully play these. File names are not used by this command; it strictly uses the events defined in sounds.json (which may not even be similar to the original file names and paths), and thus a resource pack adding new sound files must define events for them (this is not necessary when replacing old sounds which are already in defined events). If an event contains multiple sounds, this command will select randomly between them (chances are modified by each sound's "weight" property), just as the game normally would. For example, "mob.pig.say" will play one of several pig sounds at random, because the event has multiple sounds associated with it.


 * The coordinates x, y, and z are the coordinates to play the sound from. If prefixed with "~", they will be relative to the player's current location. Note that "~" is shorthand for "~0", and thus "~ ~ ~" can be used as a substitute for the player's current location.


 * The  argument controls the distance from which a sound may be heard. At values less than 1.0, the sound will be quieter and have a smaller sphere within which it may be heard. At values greater than 1.0, the sound will not actually grow louder, but its audible range (a 16-block radius at 1.0) will be multiplied by volume. There will always be a gradual falloff to silence based on distance from the center of the sphere.


 * The  argument controls the volume of the sound for players outside its normal audible sphere. If the player is outside the normal sphere, the sound will instead be centered some short distance (<4 blocks) from the player, and   will determine its volume.


 * The  argument alters both the pitch and the duration of the sound (which means that it's actually changing its speed).


 * Success Conditions


 * must be online,  must be at least 0.0,   must be between 0.0 and 2.0 (inclusive),   must be between 0.0 and 1.0 (inclusive), and the player must be able to hear the sound from where it is played.
