Minecraft Resource Toolkit

A Visual Studio Code extension designed to enhance the development workflow for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition addons.

• When you open a relevant addon file (e.g., .json, .mcfunction, .lang), the extension scans your workspace for related files.
• A dedicated view panel named "Linked Files" (found in the Explorer sidebar) displays a tree of identifiers found in the current file.
• Expanding an identifier shows a list of other files in your workspace that define or use that same identifier.
• File paths are shortened for readability:
  • Files in resource_packs/<pack_name>/... are shown as RP: ...
  • Files in behavior_packs/<pack_name>/... are shown as BP: ...
• Clicking on a linked file opens it in the editor.
• The index updates automatically when you save relevant files.
• You can manually rebuild the index using the command MRT: Rebuild Index from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).

• Automatically renders custom Minecraft glyphs (Unicode characters in the Private Use Area, e.g., U+E000 - U+EFFF) directly within the text editor.
• Supports glyphs defined in glyph_E0.png, glyph_E1.png, etc., located within a font directory inside any resource pack in your workspace (e.g., resource_packs/MyPack/font/glyph_E1.png).
• Glyphs should appear automatically in files like .lang, .mcfunction, .json, etc.
• The size of the rendered glyph can be configured via the mrt.glyphs.tileSize setting (default is 16).

• Provides hover information and potentially other assistance when working with .lang files and dialogue JSON files (details may vary based on implementation).

1. Install the extension (.vsix file).
2. Open a Minecraft: Bedrock Edition addon project workspace containing resource_packs and/or behavior_packs folders.
3. The extension will automatically build an index of identifiers (you'll see a progress notification).
4. Open a relevant file (e.g., an entity JSON file, a .mcfunction file, a .lang file).
5. Check the "Linked Files" view in the Explorer sidebar to see cross-references.
6. Observe custom glyphs rendering directly in the editor if your project uses them and includes the corresponding glyph_Ex.png files.
