by lukasabbe

Format is a Fabric utility for building NBT area JSON files used in advancements, which removes the manual work of writing area data by hand.

FabricMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 1.21.3

What it does

Format helps with data pack creation by generating NBT JSON advancement areas through a world-edit-style selection tool. A player marks an area in the world, and the tool writes the matching JSON, so the data does not have to be typed out line by line. The tool is meant for players and pack makers who work with advancement regions.

The mod requires Fabric API. It can also be run on Paper, Spigot and Bukkit servers. Files exist for Fabric across 11 release versions, 1.20 – 1.21.3, with 1.2-client+1.21.2 for 1.21.3 as the latest file, and the code is released under the MIT License and is open source.

Key features

  1. Area JSON generation

    Selected regions are turned into NBT JSON advancement areas, ready to drop into a data pack.

  2. World edit-style selection

    Areas are picked in the world with a selection tool similar to those used by world editing mods.

  3. Data pack helper

    The generated output is aimed at data pack creation, cutting the repetitive typing that advancement areas otherwise need.
