ZMJJKK123-hub Function Tags
This content applies only to Java Edition.
Function tags are groups of functions.
Usage
Function tags can be used with the /function command, which runs all functions in the tag in the order they first appear. If a function is referenced multiple times in a tag and its subtags, it runs only once.
The game provides two special tags:
- Functions listed in
#loadrun when the world loads or the server starts. They also run on every datapack reload. - Functions listed in
#tickrun at the start of every game tick, repeating continuously.
Vanilla datapacks do not use these tags.
Example
The following example defines the #load tag in the minecraft namespace and adds the example:test function.
data/minecraft/tags/function/load.json:
{
"values": [
"example:test"
]
}
The game runs example:test once when the datapack loads.
