Spawners

Do anyone know how I can convert a ItemStack MOB_SPAWNER to a specific mob spawner? How should I make the instances? If anyone have any examples then that would be great!

Cheers!

 

Found this

 

@SuperOriginal That didn't help me too much..

 

Well that's the CreatureSpawner class, which is a blockstate and even has a method to set spawn types. Not sure what else you need.

 

@SuperOriginal It's not a block I'm talking about.. it's a ItemStack.

 

Code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onPlace(BlockPlaceEvent e) {
        if ((e.getBlockPlaced().getType().equals(Material.MOB_SPAWNER))
                && (e.getItemInHand().hasItemMeta())
                && (e.getItemInHand().getItemMeta().hasDisplayName())
                && (CreatureType.fromName(e.getItemInHand().getItemMeta()
                        .getDisplayName().replace(" SPAWNER", "")) != null))
            ((CreatureSpawner) e.getBlockPlaced().getState())
                    .setCreatureTypeByName(e.getItemInHand().getItemMeta()
                            .getDisplayName().replace(" Spawner", ""));

    }
  
  
  
  
  
    @EventHandler
    public void onBreakez(BlockBreakEvent e) {
          
            if ((e.getBlock().getType().equals(Material.MOB_SPAWNER))){
                    ItemStack spawnerStack = new ItemStack(e.getBlock().getType());
                    ItemMeta im = spawnerStack.getItemMeta();
                    im.setDisplayName(((CreatureSpawner) e.getBlock().getState())
                            .getCreatureTypeName().toUpperCase() + " SPAWNER");
                    spawnerStack.setItemMeta(im);
                    spawnerStack.setDurability(((CreatureSpawner) e.getBlock()
                            .getState()).getSpawnedType().getTypeId());
              
            }
    }
