[[File:Datapacks.png|thumb|Some experimental vanilla datapacks.]]
A '''data pack''' or '''datapack''' is a collection of data used to configure a number of features of ''Minecraft''. A data pack is either a folder or a [[Minecraft:wikipedia:Zip (file format)|{{code|.zip}} file]] containing a {{cd|pack.mcmeta}} file. Data packs are used to define among others [[Minecraft:Custom advancement|advancements]], [[Minecraft:Custom dimension|dimensions]], [[Minecraft:enchantment]]s, [[Minecraft:loot table]]s, [[Minecraft:recipe]]s, [[Minecraft:Custom structure|structures]], and [[Minecraft:biomes]] (see {{slink||Contents}} for a full list). The definitions of the vanilla features is done using a built-in data pack. [[Minecraft:Experiments]] are enabled by adding separate bundled data packs to a world. Similarly, custom data packs can be added to a world to add or modify features and define [[Minecraft:Function (Java Edition)|functions]]. A datapack can also change/edit terrain.

== Usage ==

Data packs can be added to a world during world creation in the [[Minecraft:Create New World]] screen in the '''More''' tab by clicking the '''Data Packs''' button. This menu allows drag-and-drop of data packs from a file explorer. Alternatively, data packs can be added to an existing world by manually placing them in the {{code|[[Minecraft:.minecraft]]/saves/{{ph|world}}/datapacks}} folder of a world.

When adding or modifying a data pack while the world is loaded, changes done to [[Minecraft:Tag|registry tags]], [[Minecraft:loot table]]s, [[Minecraft:recipe]]s, [[Minecraft:advancement]]s, [[Minecraft:item modifier]]s, [[Minecraft:predicate]]s, [[Minecraft:Function (Java Edition)|functions]], and [[Minecraft:Structure_file|structure templates]] can be loaded using the {{cmd|reload}} command. Other features require the world or server to be rebooted for changes to take effect (see {{Slink||Experimental Settings}}).

Data packs load their data based on the load order. This order can be seen and altered in the '''Data Packs''' screen during world creation, and by using the {{cmd|datapack}} command. The loading order of data packs is stored in the [[Minecraft:Java Edition level format#level.dat_format|{{cd|level.dat}} file]]. If a file exists in multiple data packs only the file in the last data pack is used. This is often referred to this file '''overriding''' the files in the earlier packs. However, [[Minecraft:tag]] files without {{cd|"replace": true}} merge their content with the files loaded from earlier packs.

If a data pack is corrupted, broken or contains malformed entries that can't simply be ignored by the game (such as by adding a non-existent entry in a vanilla [[Minecraft:Tag (Java Edition)|tag]]), an error is shown when trying to open the world that asks the player if they want to enable Safe Mode, or return to title and fix the issue. Safe Mode disables all data packs except the vanilla one, possibly allowing the world to be opened.

=== Experimental Settings ===
{{Not to be confused with|Experiments}}
[[File:Experimental settings warning screen.png|thumb|The warning screen that appears when trying to open a world using experimental settings in singleplayer.]]
Some data pack features are considered '''experimental settings''' by the game. If a world has enabled a data pack that uses these features, opening the world in [[Minecraft:singleplayer]] will display a warning screen to the player. Additionally, worlds using experimental settings '''cannot''' be played on [[Minecraft:Realms]]: Attempting to upload such a world to Realms results in a server error.

Internally, most experimental settings use ''dynamic registries'' (as opposed to ''static registries''). This means any changes regarding these features cannot be loaded using the {{Cmd|reload}} command: the world must be exited and reopened (singleplayer), or the server rebooted (multiplayer) for the changes to take effect.

For a data pack to be marked as "using experimental settings", it must contain at least one valid file inside one of several specific folders. For instance, defining a [[Minecraft:Instrument definition|custom instrument]] inside the <code>data/instrument/</code> folder '''counts''' as using experimental settings, whereas defining an instrument through [[Minecraft:Data component format|item components]] '''does not''' count as such.

See {{Slink|2=Folder structure}} for which folders are considered experimental settings.

== Contents ==

Data packs use a folder structure to contain the data. On the top level, a data pack has to contain a {{cd|pack.mcmeta}} file containing meta-data about the data pack. The data is organized into [[Minecraft:namespace]]s to avoid files from different packs unintentionally interfering with each other. Files are loaded as follows:
* The file {{cd|data/{{ph|namespace}}/{{ph|registry name}}/{{ph|path}}.json}} is loaded into the {{cd|{{ph|registry name}}}} registry with ID {{cd|{{ph|namespace}}:{{ph|path}}}}. Both {{cd|{{ph|registry name}}}} and {{cd|{{ph|path}}}} can contain slashes ({{cd|/}}), which results in extra sub-folders.
** [[Minecraft:Function (Java Edition)|Functions]] use the {{cd|.mcfunction}} extension
** [[Minecraft:Structure files]] use the {{cd|.nbt}} extension
* [[Minecraft:Tag]]s are loaded from files {{cd|data/{{ph|namespace}}/tags/{{ph|registry name}}/{{ph|path}}.json}} which results in a {{cd|{{ph|registry name}}}} tag named {{cd|#{{ph|namespace}}:{{ph|path}}}}.

=== Folder structure ===

<div class="treeview">
If a folder is marked with an asterisk ('''*'''), it means that the game considers the feature to be experimental, and having a valid file inside any of these folders will mark the data pack as using [[Minecraft:Data pack#Experimental Settings|experimental settings]].

=== {{mono|pack.mcmeta}} ===
{{main|pack.mcmeta}}
A data pack is identified by ''Minecraft'' based on the presence of the {{code|pack.mcmeta}} file in the root directory of the data pack, which contains data in [[Minecraft:wikipedia:JSON|JSON]] format.

A {{code|pack.mcmeta}} file to produce a data pack that looks like the "vanilla" data pack in [[Minecraft:Java Edition 1.21.9|1.21.9]] would look like this:
{{filename|pack.mcmeta}}
{{pack.mcmeta|{
"translate": "dataPack.vanilla.description"
}|88.0|type=new}}
