[1.18.2] [SOLVED] Can't get items by tag

[Magistu]

Hello!

When I'm trying to get items by tag during the recipe serialization, I'm getting an empty list. I have a guess that item tags're not loaded by the time minecraft loads my recipes.

Here's my code:

Class that saves information about ingredient's count

public class TagValueStack extends Ingredient.TagValue
{
    private final TagKey<Item> tag;
    private final int count;

    public TagValueStack(TagKey<Item> tag, int count)
    {
        super(tag);
        this.tag = tag;
        this.count = count;
    }
    
    @NotNull
    public Collection<ItemStack> getItems()
    {
        List<ItemStack> list = Lists.newArrayList();
        
        for(Item item : Objects.requireNonNull(ForgeRegistries.ITEMS.tags().getTag(this.tag))) {
            list.add(new ItemStack(item, this.count));
        }

        if (list.size() == 0 && !net.minecraftforge.common.ForgeConfig.SERVER.treatEmptyTagsAsAir.get()) {
            list.add(new ItemStack(net.minecraft.world.level.block.Blocks.BARRIER).setHoverName(new net.minecraft.network.chat.TextComponent("Empty Tag: " + this.tag.location())));
        }
        
        return list;
    }

    public JsonObject serialize()
    {
        JsonObject jsonobject = super.serialize();
        jsonobject.addProperty("count", this.count);
        return jsonobject;
    }
}

Recipe serializer with some aux methods:

Set up your serializer to read Item Stacks, then use the tags in your Json files. It will convert the tags to items automatically when crafting. Look at my files as an example here:

The recipe type:
https://github.com/toadie-odie/TodeVillagers/blob/10_glass_kiln_mostly_done/src/main/java/net/warrentode/todevillagers/recipes/GlassblowingRecipe.java

Sample Json Recipe File using a tag for an ingredient:
https://github.com/toadie-odie/TodeVillagers/blob/10_glass_kiln_mostly_done/src/main/resources/data/todevillagers/recipes/glass_from_glassblowing_sand.json

I hope I fully understood what you're trying to do, and if so, I hope this helps.

not really, I'm trying to make recipes where the items must to be in a certain amount. for this reason I don't use the Ingredient.fromJson() method which doesn't take this into account

and Ingredient.fromJson() doesn't work with tags as well. my minecraft version is 1.18.2 and forge version is 40.1.0. maybe it's an issue of this version of forge

Not sure, but you might be able to build something using the SimpleCookingRecipe Serializer as a base in order to use the count parameter?

That doesn't make sense. If that was the case, the vanilla game wouldn't be able to read tags in the recipe Json files either, but it does even in 1.18.2.

thanks for your help. I found that issue: https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/issues/8498
