[1.8.9] How to check if an item can be placed?

[Hawpe]

I'm trying to check if an item can be placed. I started out by checking if the ItemStack is a block but it misses some items such as sugar cane, nether wart, etc. I haven't been able to find a function isPlaceable or any Interface that could be used with instanceof.

 

My code right now:

 

BlockPos blockPos = mc.objectMouseOver.getBlockPos();
ItemStack itemInUse = mc.thePlayer.getHeldItem();

if (itemInUse != null) {
    Block resultBlock = Block.getBlockFromItem(itemInUse.getItem());

    if (mc.theWorld.getBlockState(blockPos).getBlock().getMaterial() == Material.air || resultBlock == null) {
        return;
    }
}

 

Is there any function that can do what I'm trying to achieve?

I can't, this is a mod for a 1.8.9 server. Furthermore, it's not my mod, I'm adding functionality to someone's mod.

Unfortunately, Forge no longer supports old version, because they are old and we can't maintain every version in perpetuity.

I'm not asking for you to maintain old versions though, just asking if you are aware of a way to do what I'm trying to achieve with what's currently available in 1.8.9. I don't want you to add anything new.
