The attribute
command does not follow the same target parameter positioning conventions as the other commands.
For example, here is the syntax of the attribute
command from the wiki:
attribute <target> <attribute> (get|base get|base set|…) …
and here is the one of the experience
command:
experience (add|set|query) <players> …
Following the syntax of other commands, that of attribute
should rather be as follows:
attribute (get|base get|base set|…) <target> <attribute> …
The full tree would then be:
attribute …
… get <target> <attribute> [<scale>]
… base …
… get <target> <attribute> [<scale>]
… set <target> <attribute> <value>
… modifier …
… add <target> <attribute> <uuid> <name> <value> (add|multiply|multiply_base)
… remove <target> <attribute> <uuid>
… value <target> <attribute> get <uuid> [<scale>]
Original syntax (from the wiki):
attribute <target> <attribute> …
… get [<scale>]
… base …
… get [<scale>]
… set <value>
… modifier …
… add <uuid> <name> <value> (add|multiply|multiply_base)
… remove <uuid>
… value get <uuid> [<scale>]

Inconsistencies can also be bugs. It's up to the developers whether they consider this working as intended or not.
In this case I find it unlikely that they will change existing commands.
Hello. Since the new item
command does not follow the format of the attribute
command, I put the commands that could be modified to follow both syntaxes. I apologize for the bad English, feel free to tell me or change the description if there are any mistakes or if some parts are incomprehensible.
I suggest changing this report to only be about /attribute, as all other commands seem to follow the same ruling.
Thank you for your report!
