Minecraft Command Block Problem

minecraft-commandsminecraft-java-edition

I have an alarming and one annoying Minecraft 1.8.8 command that is to summon a item in a chest with another command of [CanPlaceOn]. This "[CanPlaceOn]" command is a command that allow certain things (blocks) to be placed on certain blocks! So when I am in adventure mode I can place the block that has the NBT tag of CanPlaceOn on a certain block. It would be helpful if someone could please provide the command for summoning a button in a chest that has the NBT CanPlaceOn tag.

Use

/blockdata x y z {Items:[0:{id:minecraft:wooden_button,tag:{CanPlaceOn:["minecraft:stonebrick"]},Count:1}]}

Which can add to an already filled chest. Replace x y z with the coordinates.

The /blockdata command changes, well, the data of a block (go figure!) Basically, I change the data of a chest to include a wooden button with the tag CanPlaceOn. Pretty simple, really.

Let's look at your data tag here carefully.

{
  Item:
  [
    id:"minecraft:written_book",
    Slot:0b,
    Damage:0s,
    Count:1b
  }
  ]
}

In this expanded form, you can immediately see that something is odd about your parentheses. There is a closing curly bracket without a partner. You'll have to add { before id (which is the first tag inside the item tag). Generally, when something is wrong, expanding the command over multiple lines and indenting properly at every layer is a good idea to catch these type of errors.

Secondly, the tag containing the item tags for chests is called Items, plural (cf. the wiki).

In total, the data tag needs to be

{
  Items:
  [
    {
      id:"minecraft:written_book",
      Slot:0b,
      Damage:0s,
      Count:1b
    }
  ]
}

Or compacted for easy copy and paste:

{Items:[{id:"minecraft:written_book",Slot:0b,Damage:0s,Count:1b}]}
