How to process OreDictionary recipes

[Anon10W1z]

I want to determine the inputs, as strings, from an OreDictionary recipe. For example, for an iron pickaxe get the inputs as:

["ingotIron", "ingotIron", "ingotIron", "null", "stickWood", "null", "null", "stickWood", "null"]

Those are the String used as keys in the OreDictionary. You can get an

ArrayList<ItemStack>

using

OreDictionary.getOres()

and as a parameter the Strings you get, to get the ItemStacks that can be used for the recipe.

 

BTW, what are you trying to do? Are you sure there isn't another way of doing what you are trying to do?

I want to do it the other way around. From an ore dictionary recipe, get the inputs as strings.

You have 2 kinds of OreRecipe: ShapedOreRecipe and ShapelessOreRecipe.

 

The ShapedOreRecipe object has a method called getInput() which gives you an array of Objects, which are either an ItemStack, an ArrayList<ItemStack>, or null.

 

The ShapelessOreRecipe has the same method, but returns an ArrayList<Object>. The objects in the arraylist are, once again, an ItemStack or an ArrayList<ItemStack>.

 

There is a trick to get the orename from that arraylist of itemstacks (since that's the collection that contains all possible itemstacks). If you can't figure it out I'll tell you, but I don't feel like spoonfeeding you everything. Let's see if you can figure this one out. :3

 

Good luck!

Alright I figured it out, first get the list of ore IDs for the stack, stream them and map them to their corresponding name. Thanks for the help guys.
