    • getInstalledVersion

      public static String getInstalledVersion()

    • createUniqueNumberedSaveDir

      public static int createUniqueNumberedSaveDir(net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer server, String parentSubPath)
      Creates a numbered directory in a subfolder of the save directory for a given world, and returns that number.

      Use in conjunction with createSaveDirMount() to create a unique place for your peripherals or media items to store files.

      Parameters:
      server - The server for which the save dir should be created.
      parentSubPath - The folder path within the save directory where the new directory should be created. eg: "computercraft/disk"
      Returns:
      The numerical value of the name of the new folder, or -1 if the folder could not be created for some reason.

      eg: if createUniqueNumberedSaveDir( world, "computer/disk" ) was called returns 42, then "computer/disk/42" is now available for writing.

    • createSaveDirMount

      public static WritableMount createSaveDirMount(net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer server, String subPath, long capacity)
      Creates a file system mount that maps to a subfolder of the save directory for a given world, and returns it.

      Use in conjunction with Use IComputerAccess.mount(String, Mount) or IComputerAccess.mountWritable(String, WritableMount) to mount this on a computer's file system.

      If the same folder may be mounted on multiple computers at once (for instance, if you provide a network file share), the same mount instance should be used for all computers. You should NOT have multiple mount instances for the same folder.

      Parameters:
      server - The server which the save dir can be found.
      subPath - The folder path within the save directory that the mount should map to. eg: "disk/42". Use createUniqueNumberedSaveDir(MinecraftServer, String) to create a new numbered folder to use.
      capacity - The amount of data that can be stored in the directory before it fills up, in bytes.
      Returns:
      The newly created mount.

    • createResourceMount

      @Nullable public static Mount createResourceMount(net.minecraft.server.MinecraftServer server, String domain, String subPath)
      Creates a file system mount to a resource folder, and returns it.

      Use in conjunction with IComputerAccess.mount(java.lang.String, dan200.computercraft.api.filesystem.Mount) or IComputerAccess.mountWritable(java.lang.String, dan200.computercraft.api.filesystem.WritableMount) to mount a resource folder onto a computer's file system.

      The files in this mount will be a combination of files in all mod jar, and data packs that contain resources with the same domain and path. For instance, ComputerCraft's resources are stored in "/data/computercraft/lua/rom". We construct a mount for that with createResourceMount("computercraft", "lua/rom").

      Parameters:
      server - The current Minecraft server, from which to read resources from.
      domain - The domain under which to look for resources. eg: "mymod".
      subPath - The subPath under which to look for resources. eg: "lua/myfiles".
      Returns:
      The mount, or null if it could be created for some reason.

      Parameters:
      world - The world this block is in.
      pos - The position this block is at.
      side - The side to extract the bundled redstone output from.
      Returns:
