A knowledge book is a utility item that reveals available crafting recipes to the player when used.

Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Knowledge books can be obtained only by using commands, as they are not found in the Creative inventory.

For example, a player can give themselves a knowledge book that reveals the recipes for buckets and flower pots by running the following command: /give @s knowledge_book[recipes=[bucket,flower_pot]].

Usage

[edit | edit source]

Knowledge books are used to reveal recipes to the player who uses it, by adding it to their recipe book. Using a knowledge book consumes it, removing it from the player's inventory.

Knowledge books are especially useful to mapmakers in conjunction with /gamerule doLimitedCrafting true, because then any item is craftable only if its recipe is unlocked first.

Using a chiseled bookshelf while having a knowledge book in the main hand puts the book inside the chiseled bookshelf.
