17w49a[1] is the ninth snapshot released for Java Edition 1.13, which added block and item tags.

Additions[]

General[]

Tags
  • Items and blocks can now be "tagged" with an ID.
    • Block tags can be used when testing for blocks in the world.
    • Items tags can be used when testing for items in inventories.
  • Tags are created using data packs in data/(namespace)/tags/blocks or data/(namespace)/tags/items.
    • For example: data/(namespace)/tags/blocks/foo.json.
    • This will create a block tag called (namespace):foo.
    • The json file contains a list of all blocks that should be "tagged".
  • There are two default tags for both the item form and the block form: minecraft:wool for all wool blocks and minecraft:planks for all wood plank blocks.

Changes[]

General[]

Crafting
  • Recipes can now refer to a tag instead of an item.
