## BlockTypeRegistry class

Manages known block types in a world.

**Signature:**

```typescript
export default class BlockTypeRegistry extends EventRouter implements protocol.Serializable 
```
**Extends:** [EventRouter](./server.eventrouter.md)

**Implements:** protocol.Serializable

## Remarks

Block type registries are created internally as a singleton for each [World](./server.world.md) instance in a game server. A block type registry allows you to register and retrieve block types by their unique id for a world.

<h2>Events</h2>

This class is an EventRouter, and instances of it emit events with payloads listed under [BlockTypeRegistryEventPayloads](./server.blocktyperegistryeventpayloads.md)

The constructor for this class is marked as internal. Third-party code should not call the constructor directly or create subclasses that extend the `BlockTypeRegistry` class.

## Example


```typescript
world.blockTypeRegistry.registerGenericBlockType({
  id: 15,
  textureUri: 'textures/dirt.png',
  name: 'Dirt',
});
```
