byHaviour

byHaviour has been discontinued since 2018, so I highly recommend you use Bridge. instead

What is it?

byHaviour is a free Minecraft:Bedrock Edition Behaviour Pack Editor written in Python. You can edit everything within Behaviour Packs with a clean minimalist interface.

Why use it?

byHaviour helps you significantly speed up your workflow when working with behaviour packs.

It is in essence a tailor made JSON editor, designed to be used to edit entity, loot and trade table files, although supports all JSON files. The joy of working with a JSON editor is that you have no worry of syntax errors. It includes smart and dynamic suggestions and autocompletion meaning you can write entitre files with ease and just a few key presses. You can also load packs, bringing up an overview page with a handy list of all entities in the pack.

Features

• Smart and Dynamic Suggestions

  • Components, Subcomponents, Filters, Condition, Functions, Loot, Trades all autocomplete.
  • Suggests component groups and events referenced elsewhere in the file or pack.
  • Builtin lists of items, blocks and entities.

• Simple but Powerful Editor

  • Entities are split into 3 subeditors: "Component Groups", "Components" and "Events" leading to a clear and organised workspace.
  • Highlight keywords in your file.

  • Comments! Imports and exports Minecratt's // comment syntax.
  • Querying! Query the documentation for information about the chosen component.
