Bedcli NPM | npm.io

Bedcli

bedcli is a compiler, project builder for Minecraft Bedrock, which considerably reduces the size of final package for the release of your project, in turn helps to develop in a more versatile and faster way. bedcli also allows you to compile your package without being a bedcli project, for more information read the documentation.

Requirements

Have Node 18 or higher to use bedcli.

Installation

npm install bedcli -g

Configuration

Return the information of your configuration:

bedcli config --info

Clear all configuration:

bedcli config --clear

Define the path to the com.mojang folder (Necessary to use watch in your project):

bedcli config --com.mojang /path/games/com.mojang/

Create a Bedcli project

bedcli create

With the create command you only have to fill in the requested fields, and your project will be created already configured.

Migrate your project to Bedcli

First I created a new bedcli project, with settings that match your existing project.

You must copy the content of your packages in their respective folder, without the manifest.json.

your_project/behavior > Behavior pack your_project/resource > Resource pack

Configure uuid

your_project/bed.config.json

{

  "project": {
	...
  },

/// Type add-on:script
  "uuid": [
    "be75bfeb-98a3-43f6-bb89-beab7af68462", // resource.header RP
    "df3edcc6-376c-4a73-9bec-c1a9b7529fce", // resource.modules RP
    "12c0622a-451c-4588-a87d-550bfe429204", // behavior.header BP
    "59e590db-729d-4936-8043-db2c9215ec72",// behavior.modules BP
    "87bb70e5-28ce-4be5-ac6d-8932b6f952c1" // behavior.modules.script BP
  ],

/// Type add-on
  "uuid": [
    "be75bfeb-98a3-43f6-bb89-beab7af68462", // resource.header RP
	"df3edcc6-376c-4a73-9bec-c1a9b7529fce", // resource.modules RP
	"12c0622a-451c-4588-a87d-550bfe429204", // behavior.header BP
	"59e590db-729d-4936-8043-db2c9215ec72" // behavior.modules BP
  ],

/// Type resource
  "uuid": [
	"be75bfeb-98a3-43f6-bb89-beab7af68462", // resource.header RP
	"df3edcc6-376c-4a73-9bec-c1a9b7529fce" // resource.modules RP
  ],

/// Type data
  "uuid": [
	"12c0622a-451c-4588-a87d-550bfe429204", // behavior.header BP
	"59e590db-729d-4936-8043-db2c9215ec72" // behavior.modules BP
  ],

/// Type data
  "uuid": [

	"87bb70e5-28ce-4be5-ac6d-8932b6f952c1" // behavior.modules.script BP
  ]
}

Configure scripts

your_project/bed.config.json

{
  "scripts": {
	"entry": "scripts/main.js",
	"language": "js",
	"dependencies": [...]
   }
}

scripts.entry: Path of your script file from the your_project/behavior folder.
scripts.language: Language of your script file can be js or ts.
scripts.dependencies: These are the dependencies that your script has, @minecraft/server and @minecraft/server-ui are supported, but you can add other dependencies and change their version if they are not supported by bedcli.

{
  "module_name": "<name>",
  "version": "<version>"
}

Compile your project

The files after compilation are saved in the your_project/dist folder.

If you use bedcli pack and you are outside the project folder the dist will be created in the path where you executed the command.

Compile your resource or behavior package without being a bedcli project:

bedcli pack --path "./"

--path: Its default value is ./ , but paths can be relative or absolute.

Compiles your bedcli project:

bedcli build

Testing with Bedcli

With the watch command you can do quick tests of your project, but it is necessary to configure the com.mojang path beforehand.

bedcli watch

Things to keep in mind with watch:

If there is a folder with the same name watch it will remove it.
If there are packages with the same header.uuid they will be removed to avoid conflicts.
This only covers the development_behavior_packs and development_resource_packs paths, depending on your project type.
