Include x, y, z coordinates in getBlockInfos - ComputerCraft Forums (archive)

I've been trying to use the data returned by getBlockInfos, and it occurred to me that it would be much easier if the coordinates were added to the the individual tables.

Instead of something like this:

{
  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },
  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:stone",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },
}

We'd get something like this:

{
  {
     coords = {45, 62, 50}, --#I am too lazy to write coordinates for all of the other ones.
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },
  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {}
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:stone",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },  {
     state = {},
     name = "minecraft:air",
     metadata = 0,
   },
}
