Modding:Chat Commands

From Stardew Valley Wiki

Jump to navigation Jump to search

This page documents how custom chat commands are handled by the game. This is an advanced guide for mod developers.

Registering custom commands

Chat commands are modular and extensible, with a ChatCommands API to manage them.

For example, you can add a custom chat command like this:

string modId = this.ModManifest.UniqueId;
ChatCommands.Register($"{modId}_echo", this.Echo, name => $"{name} [message]: show the given message in the chat box.");

...

/// <inheritdoc cref="ChatCommandHandlerDelegate" />
private void Echo(string[] command, ChatBox chat)
{
    string message = ArgUtility.GetRemainder(command, 1);

    chat.addInfoMessage(message);
}
