# API documentation for dispensers
|
|
|
|
The dispensers API allows you to add custom code which is called when a
|
|
particular item is dispensed.
|
|
Just add the `_on_dispense` function to the item definition.
|
|
By default, items are just thrown out as item entities.
|
|
|
|
## Additional fields for item definitions
|
|
|
|
### `_on_dispense(stack, pos, droppos, dropnode, dropdir)`
|
|
|
|
This is a function which is called when an item is dispensed by the dispenser.
|
|
These are the parameters:
|
|
|
|
* stack: Itemstack which is dispense. This is always exactly 1 item
|
|
* pos: Position of dispenser
|
|
* droppos: Position to which to dispense item
|
|
* dropnode: Node of droppos
|
|
* dropdir: Drop direction
|
|
|
|
By default (return value: `nil`), the itemstack is consumed by the dispenser afterwards.
|
|
Optionally, you can explicitly set the return value to a custom leftover itemstack.
|
|
|
|
### `_dispense_into_walkable`
|
|
|
|
By default, items will only be dispensed into non-walkable nodes.
|
|
But if this value is set If `true`, the item can be dispensed into walkable nodes.
