How to give players a specific book when pressing a button / ingame command?

[gentle shoal]

So I got an item ID of a Rule Book I made with the help of the /kjs hand command. But how do I give it to players when they press a button for example at spawn. Or how could I turn it into a command perhaps? It's for a ATM8 server if that gives you more tools via other mods

How to give players a specific book when pressing a button / ingame command?

[gentle shoal]

Would this work? Then just connect a button to a command block with "/kubejs custom_command Rulebook"

ServerEvents.customCommand('Rulebook', event => {
  event.player.give(Item.of('minecraft:written_book', '{author:"_BlueFireFox_",pages:[\'{"text":"Testing KubeJS script"}\'],title:"KubeJS Testing"}')`)
  })

try /give playername kubejs:item_id

[gentle shoal]

Doesn't work. Item ID name is way too long

[tawny gale]

ah, for some reason i thought this was a completely new item, i didnt read properly; sorry

if you intend to give this book to players, custom_command could work; you could also add a command to the command registry

[tawny gale]

this should work, let me know if it does not

So I created a custom command as you can see up there and that works fine. Though I rather have people be able to press a button rather than typing /kubejs custom_command Rulebook in chat (unless there's a way to make it something like /rulebook

[gentle shoal]

Sadly it does not

[tawny gale]

you can make a command such as /rulebook or any other arbitrary command using the command registry

[gentle shoal]

It doesn't give me anything when I press the button

[tawny gale]

ill pull up a wiki page for you

also, try /execute as @p run kubejs custom_command Rulebook

it needs to be sent from a player, so you need to execute the command as if the player sent it

[gentle shoal]

Hero, that works!

[tawny gale]

glad it does; if youd still prefer a command like /rulebook so that your players can access your rulebook anywhere lmk

[gentle shoal]

Wouldn't hurt to have it as a backup

[tawny gale]

ill write it for you when i get home since some of the info on it is slightly outdated

[gentle shoal]

Yeah sure! No hurries! I might be in bed by then but I'll read it tomorrow if that's the case

[gentle shoal]

Hey did you manage to find the info?

[tawny gale]

ya, i just slept as soon as i got home and dont have time to write the command rn

if youre confident, you can go on the kubejs legacy wiki and look there, though very few select things are different between that version and 1.19

otherwise ill get that done in a few hours after my dentist appt

[gentle shoal]

I found this. Not sure if this is what I'm supposed to be looking for? And if so how exactly I'd change it

[tawny gale]

didnt know that was on the newer wiki; yeah, that works in modern versions and you would use something akin to this

ill set it up for you after i am home from my dentists appt

[gentle shoal]

Sure ty!

[tawny gale]

alright, sorry this took so long but i finally snagged some free time so here you go

ServerEvents.commandRegistry(event => {//command registry event
    const { commands: Commands, arguments: Arguments} = event;
    event.register(//register a new command
        Commands.literal("rulebook")//the command is called myCommand
        .requires(src => src.hasPermission(0))//2 is op. This line is optional, but you can also instead of just one value, wrap it in {}s and use return to write a more complex requirement checks
            .executes(ctx => {//run the command
                ctx.source.player.give(Item.of('minecraft:written_book', '{author:"_BlueFireFox_",pages:[\'{"text":"Testing KubeJS script"}\'],title:"KubeJS Testing"}'))
                return 1
            })
        )
})

put this in server scripts, obviously

i'd recommend using this so that your players can access the rulebook from anywhere and so they dont have to fight over who's closest to the commandblock in order to recieve a book

[gentle shoal]

Right so with this players should be able to do /rulebook and it'll work

[tawny gale]

yes
