Minecraft:Slot

A slot is a location in the data of a block entity or entity that an item stack can be placed in.

Java Edition

A slot is defined by its slot index.

Slot index	Used by	Description
0-53	General inventories	Different containers have different ranges for the slot number: Minecraft:Items, Minecraft:item frames, item displays, Minecraft:arrows, Minecraft:tridents, Minecraft:spectral arrows, Minecraft:fireballs, and Minecraft:small fireballs: 0. Minecraft:Barrels, Minecraft:chests, Minecraft:dispensers, Minecraft:droppers, Minecraft:hoppers, Minecraft:shulker boxes and Minecraft:trapped chests are numbered 0 for the top-left slot and then increase first horizontally, then vertically (so, for example, a chest's top row slots are numbered 0 to 8 from left to right). Double chests and double trapped chests are treated as two single container blocks. A Minecraft:brewing stand's bottom slots are numbered 0 to 2 from left to right, its top slot is 3 and the fuel slot is 4. A Minecraft:furnace's slots are numbered 0 for the input slot, 1 for the fuel slot, and 2 for the output slot. Minecraft:Players: 0-35 Minecarts with chests: 0-26 Minecarts with hoppers: 0-4

Command argument

In commands, a slot should be referred by a string name instead of its index. The string name is mapped to its index when executing command.

A string name of slot consists of slot type and optional slot number, in the format of <slot_type> or <slot_type>.<slot_number>.

Slot string name	Valid slot number	Mapped index
`contents`		0
`container.<slot_number>`	0-53	0-53
`hotbar.<slot_number>`	0-8	0-8
`inventory.<slot_number>`	0-26	9-35
`enderchest.<slot_number>`	0-26	200-226
`horse.<slot_number>`	0-14	500-514
`weapon`		98
`weapon.mainhand`		98
`weapon.offhand`		99
`armor.head`		103
`armor.chest`		102
`armor.legs`		101
`armor.feet`		100
`armor.body`		105
`horse.saddle`		400
`horse.chest`		499
`player.cursor`		499
`player.crafting.<slot_number>`	0-3	500-503

Template:Cmd command also supports wildcarded slot names:

container.*: contains container.0 to container.53.
hotbar.*: contains hotbar.0 to hotbar.8.
inventory.*: contains inventory.0 to inventory.26.
enderchest.*: contains enderchest.0 to enderchest.26.
horse.*: contains horse.0 to horse.14.
weapon.*: contains Template:Cd.
armor.*: contains Template:Cd.
player.crafting.*: contains player.crafting.0 to player.crafting.3.

Bedrock Edition

Command argument

In commands, a slot is referred by two arguments: slot type and slot number.

For a block, its slot type is slot.container.

Minecraft:Barrels, Minecraft:chests, Minecraft:dispensers, Minecraft:droppers, Minecraft:hoppers, Minecraft:shulker boxes and Minecraft:trapped chests are numbered 0 for the top-left slot and then increase first horizontally, then vertically (so, for example, a chest's top row slots are numbered 0 to 8 from left to right). Double chests and double trapped chests are treated as two single container blocks.
A Minecraft:brewing stand's bottom slots are numbered 0 to 2 from left to right, its top slot is 3 and the fuel slot is 4.
A Minecraft:furnace's slots are numbered 0 for the input slot, 1 for the fuel slot, and 2 for the output slot.
