Example of how to Enchant a Shovel
You can enchant a shovel that you are holding by using the /enchant command.
For example, you can use the /enchant command to enchant the shovel that the player called DigMinecraft is holding with Silk Touch I.
/enchant DigMinecraft silk_touch 1
In this example, silk_touch is the name of the enchantment and 1 is the level of the enchantment to add. The command would result in the shovel held by DigMinecraft to be enchanted with Silk Touch I. This enchantment would allow you to mine blocks themselves instead of getting the usual dropped items. You can gather items that are fragile and break such as glass or ice. Or you can mine and gather the block itself such as diamond ore or coal ore (instead of getting diamond and coal drops).
