I've been trying to add an item to a chest, but I dont know exactly how to do it.

 

if(worldIn.getBlockState(po).getBlock() == Blocks.CHEST) {
    Block chest = worldIn.getBlockState(po).getBlock();
    chest.
}

That's my code, the chest. is there from me trying to find something from auto complete but I don't know what to do.

If anyone knows please reply!

Thanks!

TileEntity chestContainer = worldIn.getTileEntity(po);

Well that's the container.

But what do I do after?

TileEntity container = worldIn.getTileEntity(po);

You grab the IItemHandler capability from it and then insert items.

Would I do it sort of like this?

container.getCapability(Capability<IItemHandler.class>,EnumFacing.NORTH);

 

EDIT:

Found it.

itemhandler = container.getCapability(CapabilityItemHandler.ITEM_HANDLER_CAPABILITY, EnumFacing.NORTH);

You should use the direction you want to insert the items from. For chests, it doesn't matter, but for other containers (like the furnace) it does. If you want "everything" (e.g. a non-specific side) then pass null.
