Version:

This class was added by a mod with mod-id mekanism. So you need to have this mod installed if you want to use this feature.

Importing the class

It might be required for you to import the package if you encounter any issues (like casting an Array), so better be safe than sorry and add the import at the very top of the file.

import mods.mekanism.api.chemical.ChemicalStack;

A ChemicalStack is the concrete representation of a Chemical, with defined characteristics, such as the amount, the type, and other data.

Implemented Interfaces

ChemicalStack implements the following interfaces. That means all methods defined in these interfaces are also available in ChemicalStack

Methods

Makes this stack immutable

Returns: An immutable Stack. This is either a new stack if the current stack is mutable, or the same stack if it is already immutable.

Return Type: CRT_STACK

// ChemicalStack.asImmutable() as CRT_STACK

myChemicalStack.asImmutable();

Makes this stack mutable

Returns: A new Stack, that is mutable.

Return Type: CRT_STACK

// ChemicalStack.asMutable() as CRT_STACK

myChemicalStack.asMutable();

Checks if this chemical stack, contains the given chemical stack by checking if the chemicals are the same, and if this stack’s amount is bigger than the given stack’s amount

Returns: true if this stack contains the other stack

Return Type: boolean

ChemicalStack.containsOther(stack as CRT_STACK) as boolean

Parameter	Type	Description
Parameter stack	Type CRT_STACK	Description Chemical stack to compare against

Copies the stack. Only needed when mutable stacks are involved.

Returns: A new stack, that contains the same info as this one

Return Type: CRT_STACK

// ChemicalStack.copy() as CRT_STACK

myChemicalStack.copy();

Gets the size of this chemical stack.

Returns: The size of this chemical stack or zero if it is empty

Return Type: long

// ChemicalStack.getAmount() as long

myChemicalStack.getAmount();

Gets the registry name for the chemical this stack is representing.

Returns: A MCResourceLocation representing the registry name.

Return Type: MCResourceLocation

// ChemicalStack.getRegistryName() as MCResourceLocation

myChemicalStack.getRegistryName();

Retrieves this fluid stack’s fluid.

Returns: The fluid.

Return Type: CHEMICAL

// ChemicalStack.getType() as CHEMICAL

myChemicalStack.getType();

Grows the stack’s amount by the given amount in MilliBuckets (MB)

Returns: A new stack, or this stack, depending on if this stack is mutable
Return Type: CRT_STACK

ChemicalStack.grow(amount as long) as CRT_STACK

Parameter	Type	Description
Parameter amount	Type long	Description The amount to grow the stack by.

Whether this chemical stack is empty.

Returns: true if this stack is empty, false otherwise.

Return Type: boolean

// ChemicalStack.isEmpty() as boolean

myChemicalStack.isEmpty();

Checks if this chemical stack is equal another chemical stack.

Returns: true if the chemicals stacks are equal, false otherwise.

Return Type: boolean

ChemicalStack.isEqual(other as CRT_STACK) as boolean

Parameter	Type	Description
Parameter other	Type CRT_STACK	Description Chemical stack to check against.

Whether this ChemicalStack’s chemical type is equal to the other defined ChemicalStack.

Returns: if the ChemicalStacks contain the same chemical type

Return Type: boolean

ChemicalStack.isTypeEqual(stack as CRT_STACK) as boolean

Parameter	Type	Description
Parameter stack	Type CRT_STACK	Description - ChemicalStack to check

Sets the chemical’s amount in MilliBuckets (MB)

Returns: A new stack, or this stack, depending on if this stack is mutable

Return Type: CRT_STACK

ChemicalStack.setAmount(amount as long) as CRT_STACK

Parameter	Type	Description
Parameter amount	Type long	Description The amount to set the stack’s amount to.

Shrinks the stack’s amount by the given amount in MilliBuckets (MB)

Returns: A new stack, or this stack, depending on if this stack is mutable

Return Type: CRT_STACK

ChemicalStack.shrink(amount as long) as CRT_STACK

Parameter	Type	Description
Parameter amount	Type long	Description The amount to shrink the stack by.

Operators

Checks if this chemical stack, contains the given chemical stack by checking if the chemicals are the same, and if this stack’s amount is bigger than the given
stack’s amount

stack as CRT_STACK in myChemicalStack

Checks if this chemical stack is equal another chemical stack.

myChemicalStack == other as CRT_STACK

Multiplies the stack’s amount by the given amount in MilliBuckets (MB)

myChemicalStack * amount as long

Properties

Name	Type	Has Getter	Has Setter	Description
Name amount	Type long	Has Getter true	Has Setter false	Description Gets the size of this chemical stack.
Name commandString	Type string	Has Getter true	Has Setter false	Description No Description Provided
Name empty	Type boolean	Has Getter true	Has Setter false	Description Whether this chemical stack is empty.
Name registryName	Type MCResourceLocation	Has Getter true	Has Setter false	Description Gets the registry name for the chemical this stack is representing.

Small note

It is worth nothing that for each Chemical type, there’s a ChemicalStack:

GasStack
InfusionStack
PigmentStack
SlurryStack

exist and are something you can interact with.
