Smelt

How to install

Smelt is a command line interface (CLI) tool, so you need to use command line on your computer.

First, install Node on your computer.
Then, in a command line prompt run npm install smelt-cli -g so that the smelt command can be used.

Want to live on the cutting edge? Try the pre-release version.

A visual example of how Smelt works:

How it works

Please note the animated gif above shows an old version; the smelt events.mcc command would now be smelt compile events.mcc.

The main command is smelt compile, used to compile your MCC files into Minecraft.

Try to demo to see how it works:

Install Smelt first (see above).
Download and unzip or git clone the Smelt-Demo project.
Using a command line terminal, navigate to the directory you saved/cloned Smelt-Demo into.
Run smelt compile demo.mcc and then see the demo.oc file that is created.
Go into Minecraft 1.9^
- Put down a command block in most north-west corner of a spawn chunk.
- Copy the compiled command from demo.oc and enter into the command block.
- Power the command block with a button (ON THE SIDE, NOT ON TOP).
See the demo command blocks appear.

Note: Run smelt compile demo.mcc --copy and instead of a .oc file being created, the compiled command will be put copied into your clipboard.

See the Docs for more information on Smelt’s MCC syntax, bang commands, plugins and configuration.
