  • How to use the /tellraw command in Minecraft! [1.19.2] I made a tutorial on this command literally six years ago, so it was time to make a more modern version.
    It’s super easy to learn, but pretty hard to master. Also the exact same format applies for titles, books, and most text in Minecraft, so this is a very valuable command to learn.

    fun fact:

    This only exists because Julian (the creator of the end poem) requested it as a way to obscure text but still have it there (to give you the idea that they are speaking something you cannot comprehend), he's also the reason to why putting "PLAYERNAME" in any text (which includes Tellraw) says the name of the entity that sees the text
    it's accessable ingame for the sake of map making

    at 6:30, the translate feature is based on the lang\*.json files. let's say you have your language set as US english, the file containing all the lines and everything for that language will be stored in lang\en_us.json. If you wanna use a line from the file, you would input {"translate":"the.identifier.for.the.object.eg"}. this will output whatever the button at the top of the pause menu says in the user's selected language. You can edit the lang files with a resource pack to add custom text by just adding a new line in the same style but unless you edit the line for every single available language, it will only work for the one(s) you've added/changed lines to.
    and at 3:20, true/false don't need quotations because they're boolean values, strings are usually encased in quote marks but integers, floating points and booleans aren't.

    The format that he is showing in this video for the tellraw command is JSON format with the possible JSON inputs that mojang has encoded into chat functions, welcome to the world of programming if you actually followed this tutorial! UA-cam sends video titles, links, recommended videos, channel names, view counts, like counts, etc in JSON and the UA-cam app or webpage decodeds them and displays them the same as Minecraft is decoding the information for the tellraw command

    3:24 The "tellraw" seems to take 2 arguments: who should see the message and a json object (Javascript Object Notation) containing the text and how it should be formated. true and false don't need quotations there because true and false are already actual values in Java (and Javascript). If the types of the values don't match, then they are automatically converted to the required type (only string/text needs needs quotations).

    if anyone is interested heres an explanation on the computer science coding part behind it.
    each group of curly brackets is a "dictionary" (this syntax is exatly like python my best language) meaning that something can be assigned a value *. for example, "text":"hi there" sets the value of "text" in this dictionary to "hi there". Each of these dictionaries is seen as one part of the thing you want in chat, and commas seperate the different values in the dictionary you want to define for the text that will be printed, as well as the seperate dictionaries
    The square brackets make an "array" or "list". It literally is just a list of values seperated by commas. or in this case, a list of dictionaries. Without it there would be an error if you tried to make multiple dictionaries
    anything in " " is a string, which is a type of variable that is just a 'string' of letters (crazy innit)
    the reason true and false arent in " " is because they are not a string. another type of variable in coding is booleans, which can only be yes or no, true or false. They are not identified with " ", just by not misspelling true or false. different people who know different languages might have different opinions (like its a JSON object or it returns 0 or 1 etc) but that doesn't matter all different explanations for the exact same use (in all the languages i know about at least)
    "
    " just means new line you don't need a dictionary because when the computer looks at it it doesnt see "
    ", it sees:
    "
    "
    because the "\" is goofy and im not bothered to explain it since it would take a while so just accept "
    " is new line.
    if you really wanna know (if you even unterstood a word of what i just said lol) just reply and ask
    i might answer with a better explanation
    or research it
    * think of it like an irl dictionary - the word "dumb" is assigned "temporarily unable or unwilling to speak" (in official oxford languages dictionary there are a lot but heres one lol)
    so when you check the dictionary for the value of variable "dumb", you get "temporarily unable or unwilling to speak" minecraft checkes the dictionary for the value of "text" and finds whatever you put there. once it constructs the finished striing with all the values you put in the dictionary matching to the right words ("text", "bold", etc.), it prints it to chat.
    ok i wanted this to be a short explanation but like no one i know has an attention span these days so this might as well be a whole essay for you sorry
    i bet youre not even reading this cuz you do not care at all
    bye

    incase people want a little explanation, think of "true and false" as built in to the language, same as any other command would be, and think of things like "aqua" as a book-marked piece of data. its like a shortcut for typing in a hex code kinda thing.
    its way more complicated than that, but thats just a basic explanation incase you're curious.

    As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, Minecraft's version was 1.17, and I do not have information on any changes or updates beyond that point, including Minecraft 1.19.3. However, I can provide you with information on how to use the `/tellraw` command in Minecraft as of Minecraft 1.17. Keep in mind that the usage may have changed in newer versions.
    In Minecraft, the `/tellraw` command allows you to send custom JSON-formatted messages to players or execute other commands. Here's a basic overview of how to use it:
    **Command Syntax:**
    ```
    /tellraw
    ```
    - ``: This is the name of the player or the target selector to whom you want to send the message.
    - ``: This is the JSON-formatted message you want to send. JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data interchange format that allows you to create complex messages with various formatting options.
    Here's an example of how to use the `/tellraw` command to send a simple text message to a player:
    ```java
    /tellraw @p {"text":"Hello, world!"}
    ```
    This command will send the message "Hello, world!" to the nearest player (`@p`).
    JSON messages can include various formatting options such as color, bold, italic, underlined text, and more. Here's an example with some formatting:
    ```java
    /tellraw @a {"text":"This is a formatted message","color":"red","bold":true,"italic":true}
    ```
    In this example, the message will be displayed in red, with bold and italic text.
    Remember that the specific JSON structure may have changed in newer versions of Minecraft, so be sure to consult the in-game help or documentation for Minecraft 1.19.3 or later to ensure you are using the `/tellraw` command correctly in the version you are playing.
    If you need more advanced formatting or want to execute commands using `/tellraw`, you may need to use more complex JSON structures, including click events and hover events. Again, consult the documentation or community resources for your specific Minecraft version for detailed information.

    I've got a big question:
    So in the /tellraw command you can use clickevents, which essentially offer the player the possibility to click the whole or a part of the message, executing a command. With "{"actions":"run_command","value":""}" you can tell the game which command you want to get executed (Let's say I want a diamond upon clicking the text, I'd have to type "{actions":"run_command","value":"/give @p diamond"}").
    Now to my initial question:
    Is there a way to use commands, that contain the " symbol? I heared, you can use the /tellraw command in clickevents such as these, but if you try typing "{actions":"run_command","value":"/tellraw {"text":"Photosynthesis"}"}" the game says that command is invalid. I assume it's because the /tellraw command uses ", which also mark the end of the argument "value" and ultimately it confuses the game.
    Is there a work-around now? I was told, I could use the /tellraw command for another /tellraw command's clickevent. I guess not, but maybe I just missed something?
    Thanks!

    • @theScratch_
      @theScratch_ 3 місяці тому

      Nvm, I found the solution.
      In order to use " in an argument like this, you only have to type \ before using the ".
      So:
      {"actions":"run_command","value":"/tellraw @a {\"text\":\"Photosynthesis\"}"
      This allows the game to differentiate between those 2 different kinds of quotation marks and so making the command valid.
