XSchem is a tool for converting Prismarine compatible schematics into a fairly simple JSON format, e.g. for quick and dirty placement of small buildings or other creations in a plugin.

Output JSON format

The output JSON is an array of arrays containing key-value-like pairs of blockdata and relative block positions:

[
    [blockdata, [x0,y0,z0, x1,y1,z1, x2,y2,z2, ...]],
    [blockdata, [ ... ]]
]

The blockdata is a setblock compatible string, for example

• spruce_wood[axis="y"]
• oak_leaves[persistent="false",distance="4"]

The coordinate array has all of the relative coordinates of this block, listed in groups of three (so the array must have a length divisible by three). If a certain block should be placed at e.g. the relative positions (x1, y1, z1) and (x2, y2, z2), the coordinates would be presented in the array as [x1,y1,z1, x2,y2,z2] and so on.

This format stores no information about the size or the original position of the schematic, so, its sole meaning is to be a quick and dirty way to store small creations, e.g. schematics of trees.
