Block tags can be used to ensure that a block meets certain conditions.

Applying Tags

Block tags can be applied in the same way as items - in the block's components - as seen below:

BP/blocks/tree_stump.json

json

{
    "format_version": "1.21.40",
    "minecraft:block": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "wiki:tree_stump",
            "menu_category": {
                "category": "nature"
            }
        },
        "components": {
            "tag:wood": {},
            "tag:my_lovely_tag": {},
            "tag:wiki:very_useless": {}
        }
    }
}

Testing for Tags

Tags can be queried with:

q.all_tags
q.any_tag
q.block_has_all_tags
q.block_has_any_tag
q.block_neighbor_has_all_tags
q.block_neighbor_has_any_tag
q.relative_block_has_all_tags
q.relative_block_has_any_tag

Example of an item querying a block's tags:

BP/items/custom_pickaxe.json

json

{
    "format_version": "1.21.40",
    "minecraft:item": {
        "description": {
            "identifier": "wiki:custom_pickaxe",
            "menu_category": {
                "category": "equipment",
                "group": "itemGroup.name.pickaxe"
            }
        },
        "components": {
            "minecraft:digger": {
                "use_efficiency": true,
                "destroy_speeds": [
                    {
                        "speed": 5,
                        "block": {
                            "tags": "q.any_tag('custom_ore', 'stone', 'metal')"
                        }
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}

Vanilla Tags

Vanilla tags can be applied to custom blocks, and some vanilla blocks are tagged internally. This kind of tag doesn't give blocks vanilla features. The only usage of it is to tag blocks to make them have the same tags as the vanilla blocks for queries or tests.
