Command Block (API)
From ComputerCraft Wiki

The Command Block API allows you to run commands in a Command Block, using it as a peripheral. (The peripheral can only be used if allowed in the config, which is default to false)
Functions exposed by the Command Block, where commandBlock is wrapped to a command block:
Function | Description |
---|---|
commandBlock.getCommand( ) | Returns a string containing the command currently inside the Command Block. |
commandBlock.setCommand( string command ) | Sets the command in the Command Block. This does not run it. |
commandBlock.runCommand( ) | Runs the command inside the Command Block previously set by commandBlock.setCommand( ) |
Note
All Command Block functions are to be used after wrapping the block in a peripheral. example:
commandBlock = peripheral.wrap("left") commandBlock.setCommand("time set 1000") commandBlock.runCommand() local currentCommand = commandBlock.getCommand()
