For those that don't like images: the wiki has moved to a new place, http://ocdoc.cil.li/.
This wiki will no longer be updated.


This component represents a vanilla command block.

Important: this component is only available if OpenComponents is also installed!

Component name: command_block.
Callbacks:

  • getValue(): string
    The currently set command.
  • setValue(value: string): boolean
    Sets a new command for the command block. Returns true on success.
  • run(): number
    Tries to execute the command set in the command block. May use a custom (fake) username for executing commands as set in the config. Returns the numeric result from running the command, usually larger than one for success, zero for failure.

Example use:

local component = require("component")

local cb = component.command_block -- get primary command block
-- os.time() returns "in-game seconds" with a 6000 tick offset, so that
-- midnight is actually midnight.
local ticks = math.floor(1000/60/60 * os.time() - 6000)
print(os.date())
cb.setValue("time set " .. (ticks + 24000))
cb.run()
print(os.date()) -- one day more than before
