Vanilla Potions

[Zeurkous]

If I would start with a String input (the name of a vanilla potion), how would I end up with an ItemStack of that potion?

The input ofcourse is something the player gives and thus can be any potion that exists.

 

Anyone has any idea? I tried this

Potion potion = Potion.getPotionFromResourceLocation(potionString);

but i can't make an ItemStack with that.

That did indeed work. Thanks.

But what I get now is a Waterbottle with an effect. What input would I need to send in order to get an actual vanilla potion?

Okay, now this

PotionUtils.appendEffects(new ItemStack(Items.POTIONITEM), Collections.singleton(potion));

gives an error, wrong argument for method. So how do I make an ItemStack from the PotionType?

PotionType potion = PotionType.getPotionTypeForName(potionString);			
ItemStack itemstack = new ItemStack(potion,1);

doesn't work either

Oh great thanks, this succesfully works on normal potions. But how would I get a splash or lingering potion? Cause PotionTypes doesn't specify that.

Works like a charm. Thanks alot
