[leaden sinew]

1. That’s what return false does

You shouldn’t return false in onCommand

[strange remnant]

So what should I use?

[proud pebble]

return true

[topaz gust]

@strange remnant replace all your return falses with return trues the purpose of return false is in case they used it incorrectly you can fast send the correct usage kinda redundant

for (Player player : Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()) {
if (!(p.hasPermission("flipsmc.sc")));
player.sendMessage(mess);
return false;

        }

And for this you need to use continue if they don’t have the permission and continue also if they do

No return!

Any questions please lmk

[strange remnant]

@topaz gust imma change it right now

Your amazing @topaz gust

[topaz gust]

Your welcome

Staffchats is a good start plugin so nice to see

[high edge]

what in the is that code

[sharp hemlock]

Anyone got experience in the luck perms api, i can't see to find on how to remove all parent groups from a player if they match my filter

https://img.olziedev.com/oLg612616612122XCZAw.png

How would i remove that group from the player?

https://img.olziedev.com/iN551mkpR551555511ci.png like this maybe

[warm steppe]

you have to use nodes i believe

wait ill show u an example on what i used

[dense drift]

discord.gg/luckperms

[warm steppe]

    public static List<String> getUserGroups(String player) {
        ArrayList<String> groups = new ArrayList<>();
        net.luckperms.api.model.user.User user = plugin.api.getUserManager().getUser(player);

        if (user == null) return new ArrayList<>(Collections.singleton("null"));

        for (Node group : user.getNodes(NodeType.INHERITANCE)) {
            groups.add(group.getKey());
        }

        return groups;
    }

with this you can find all groups that user has

if you change it a bit you can make it remove group from user

[lyric gyro]

Take a look into the NodeMap.clear(Predicate) method

you can do something like```java
user.data().clear(NodeType.INHERITANCE.predicate(inheritanceNode -> {
// your filter
}))

[sharp hemlock]

i just tested my code and it works well, but this looks like its more cleaner

https://img.olziedev.com/hi809EHbB808099h809RU.png ah yes

[lyric gyro]

btw you can get the User in other ways;
UserManager#modifyUser(UUID, Consumer<User>) will load it and save it after running the function you pass to it
If you have a Player you can use the PlayerAdapter (LuckPerms#getPlayerAdapter) to simply convert a Player into a User (or get other kinds of cached data)

[sharp hemlock]

Yeah this works, thank you

its a bit weird they use a node system though

[lyric gyro]

how come?

[formal crane]

Why can't i use these imports?
import org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_12_R1.entity.CraftLivingEntity;
import net.minecraft.server.v1_12_R1.EntityInsentient;
it cant find craftbukkit & minecraft

[pure crater]

it is NMS

If you want to use NMS, then you have to install the NMS into your local repo

[formal crane]

whats nms?

[pure crater]

net.minecraft.server

the second import at least is NMS

[formal crane]

where can i download those file to put in my plugin?

[distant turret]

I must be doing something wrong, but when using the AutoSellAPI ```Multiplier multiplier = AutoSellAPI.getMultiplier(e.getPlayer());

returns null

[dense galleon]

In general, is it good practice to ALWAYS have a priority level next to an event handler?

[dusky harness]

no

[graceful hedge]

next?

[dusky harness]

at least not that im aware of

theres a reason why theres a default value :))

[graceful hedge]

Oh

[dusky harness]

parameter

[graceful hedge]

Well probably personal preference

[dusky harness]

maybe

[dense galleon]

I mean

[dusky harness]

but it adds extra verbosity

[dense galleon]

Yeahh sure but

[dusky harness]

its also like doing ignoreCancelled = false

[dense galleon]

If I got a pretty big plugin

Which has multiple classes handling the same event in different ways, then it's a good idea to give them different priorities

To make sure things run as I expect them to

[graceful hedge]

Sure

Or just have one event handler

[dense galleon]

Nah that'd be way too messy

[graceful hedge]

And then have x amount of observers which you invoke in that event handler

[dusky harness]

what i do is have a class ex PlayerJoinListener and have the actual listener handling in there

[dense galleon]

I don't want one event handler to handle 4 different things related to how arrows behave when they hit an entity

[graceful hedge]

Assuming it’s the same priority and same ignoreCancelled state

[dense galleon]

Ah I have different listeners based on what they handle

[graceful hedge]

I mean given what I said, you don’t necessarily need to register 4 event handlers

[dusky harness]

so like ```java
@EventHandler
private void onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
someAction(event);
sendWelcome(event);
}

private void sendAction(PLayerJoinEvent event) {
// ...
}

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[dense galleon]

So EntityListener, ItemListener, WeaponListener (for some stuff in my plugin), InventoryListener, MiscListener

[graceful hedge]

You could diminish the amount to 1 and then have something like dkim or like an array of Consumers with that event type

[dense galleon]

What

I have not touched consumers yet

[graceful hedge]

Oh

[dense galleon]

And I probably won't until I got more time in my hands

[graceful hedge]

It’s similar to Runnable

But it takes an argument also

[dense galleon]

These days I got time to just do small changes to my plugin, not big refactors that may take a few hours but yeah I need to look into those

[digital nova]

How can i check if an hook exist?

[dusky harness]

what hook?

[pure crater]

You look at your bedroom door

and try to find a hook behind the door

if there isnt one, you can't hang your clothes

[robust flower]

is there any problem into having multiple methods registered for the same event?

[graceful hedge]

No not at all

Just if they all happen to be with the same priority and ignoreCancelled state, why not just use one direct Bukkit event handler and then delegate?

[robust flower]

I see, well, yes, I have already done both ways

[graceful hedge]

Yeah, I usually do it due to the reflection (invocation) overhead which is usually negligible but yeah

[robust flower]

all those methods are extensions for my custom InfernalDeathEvent event

[graceful hedge]

Ah

Looks good

[dusky harness]

this is what i do too xD

[graceful hedge]

High level!

I’ve tried ext funcs with Lombok and that was quite nice and hella confusing

[brittle thunder]

I almost thought you were going towards "hooker" instead of a "hook"

[robust flower]

it feels super good to be able to use the class properties as if you were inside itkt private fun InfernalDeathEvent.dropMobLoots() { // 'infernalType' is a property of InfernalDeathEvent // 'world' and 'entity' too infernalType.getLoots().forEach { world.dropItemNaturally(entity.location, it) } }

[graceful hedge]

Hmm yeah

I really don’t know what’s best

Just using a static method where you take the instance as an argument

Or that

[brittle thunder]

Extensions are probably the better way to go in kt

[graceful hedge]

Yeah, but just generally?

[brittle thunder]

Yes

[graceful hedge]

I mean if we disregard language

Is it considered more clean?

[robust flower]

could you provide a brief example of this?

[brittle thunder]

Not sure if there will be any proper answer if we disregard language

[graceful hedge]

Hmm yeah language is probably playing a major role in it

[brittle thunder]

Extensions here would serve the same purpose as the static functions except making it easier to see where its invokable

[graceful hedge]

Ah true

[pure crater]

hook up with people!

[graceful hedge]

static void dropMobLoots(InfernalDeathEvent event) {
//do stuff here
}

Then we would just call dropMobLoots(event)

[robust flower]

but this way we would have to use event. before the properties, right?

[graceful hedge]

Uh yes

event.getInfernalType() probably

Etc

[robust flower]

but why static though? would this method be on the same class as the listener?

[graceful hedge]

Yeah well if it doesn’t require any variables from the listener instance (or methods)

Then why not make it static

• invokestatic is supposed to be a little bit faster than invokevirtual (if we made it an private instance method for example)

[robust flower]

sure, in Java, why not, but I'm usually lazy a bit careful with static cause sometimes it might throw the reader off a bit (or at least I get thrown a bit sometimes by it)

[graceful hedge]

If you get thrown of by it, you can use the class name before invocation like
ListenerClass.dropMobLoots(event);

[leaden sinew]

That has to be like the smallest of differences lol

[copper spear]

im i high or when i press k it wont work

# setting pace with a modulus

[steady ingot]

Is there a way to present an api in a api (third party dependency in my api) without shading it?

[lyric gyro]

Maven or gradle?

[steady ingot]

Gradle

[lyric gyro]

Thank god

The API module/project would use the java-library plugin instead of java, and the exposed dependencies you'd include as api/compileOnlyApi as opposed to implementation/compileOnly

The "internal" dependencies would stay as implementation/compileOnly

Anyway goodnight uwu~~\✨

[steady ingot]

Thanks and gn!

[lyric gyro]

For more info https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/java_library_plugin.html

[cerulean birch]

Maven vs gradle pros and cons?

Besides length of the build script

[dense drift]

compilation speed of gradle is above maven's for example

[graceful hedge]

Gradle is more configurable without the need of plugins

(Which in itself takes time to write from my experience)

[rugged bane]

As someone who recently moved from Maven to Gradle, Gradle is insanely faster

[cerulean birch]

So would it be worth my time to learn to use gradle

[rugged bane]

Around 0.6-1s compile time

Yeah

[cerulean birch]

Hm aight

[rugged bane]

I was a maven fanboy for ages, but can’t lie Gradle is pretty nice

And fast to compile

I won’t ever go to that Kotlin crap though

[cerulean birch]

Any downsides/things to know about or watch out for when switching?

[rugged bane]

With your current maven script, what do you use? Just dependencies?

If you’ve got something complex like a full on task, then a bit harder

If you’re just compiling against spigot for example isn’t too bad

[cerulean birch]

Default build script made by Minecraft plugin and yeah dependencies/repos

[rugged bane]

Then you’re good to go, next level up would be shading libraries and relocating, which isn’t that complex once you get your head round it

https://github.com/heychazza/PlayerChat/blob/master/build.gradle.kts

I recently started moving projects to Gradle

Got many projects to go yet tho 😅😅

[graceful hedge]

The only problem I’ve encountered is sometimes when IntelliJ struggles a bit with the integration although using the kotlin DSL fixed that as opposed to groovy DSL regarding build scripts

[sudden sand]

gradle > maven for speed @cerulean birch

and it's 10x easier

and it's way more configurable

[graceful hedge]

I mean maven isn’t harder than gradle necessarily

[sudden sand]

I find it a bit more harder

[graceful hedge]

Idk I mean they’re arguably at the same difficulty level, though for sure gradle is more concise.

[rugged bane]

Yeah maven is more in huge blocks, Gradle is more condensed

[dense galleon]

Alright this is I guess a bit of a stretch

I got this default method in my interface, which I want to return a different class based on the provided parameter

    default SoulState getSoulStateIfPresent(SoulStateType type) {
        switch (type) {
            case MARKED -> {
                return (Marked) getCurrentSoulStates().getOrDefault(type, null);
            }
            case DAZZLED -> {
                return (Dazzled) getCurrentSoulStates().getOrDefault(type, null);
            }
            case HASTED -> {
                return (Hasted) getCurrentSoulStates().getOrDefault(type, null);
            }
            default -> {
                return null;
            }
        }
    }```

I have no idea how to have it return `Marked`, `Hasted` or `Dazzled` based on the `SoulStateType`

Do I need some wildcard? Or a generic?

Is it like this...?

    default <T extends SoulState> T getSoulStateIfPresent(SoulStateType type) {
        return (T) getCurrentSoulStates().get(type);
    }```

I am getting a warning about an unchecked cast though

[pure crater]

you really shouldnt be making this a default method in your interface

it kind of defeats the purpose of the interface cause its implementation specific

[dense galleon]

Where should I have such a method?

Just in a util class?

[pure crater]

Inside SoulStateType enum

or something

i need to know the full details

[dense galleon]

Oh yeah that makes sense

[pure crater]

the point of interfaces is to try and generify stuff. By adding that switch statement for implementation specific method it gets rid of that generality

so its bad

cause anything should be able to implement the interface

[dense galleon]

Do I not need to declare a generic next to my class name

[dense galleon]

I just pasted this method to my SoulStateType enum class and it works fine for the most part

So this:

    public static <T extends SoulState> T getSoulStateIfPresent(Soul soul, SoulStateType type) {
        return soul.getCurrentSoulStates().containsKey(type) ? (T) soul.getCurrentSoulStates().get(type) : null;
    }``` just as a static method in my enum class

[dense drift]

is better to use get and do a null check instead of containsKey and get

because that's basically what containsKey does

[pure crater]

or just literally only do soul.getCurrentSoulStates().get(type)

lmfao

no need to check

as soul.getCurrentSoulStates().get(type) will already return null if key doesnt exist

[dense drift]

not sure how casting null works but sure

[dense galleon]

Yeah that's the thing, casting null seems sus

[warm steppe]

thy { , } and return ?

why*

[heavy wadi]

Am I right to assume that the constructor and the getters are completely redundant here?
I can basically remove the whole body of the class and just use possibleDrops() instead of getPossibleDrops() when working with the object?

public record CustomDropSet(Integer xp, Map<CustomDrop, Float> possibleDrops) {

    public CustomDropSet(Integer xp, Map<CustomDrop, Float> possibleDrops) {
        this.xp = xp;
        this.possibleDrops = possibleDrops;
    }

    public Integer getXp() { return xp; }

    public Map<CustomDrop, Float> getPossibleDrops() { return possibleDrops; }
}

[graceful hedge]

Makes the scope more explicit probably

But it’s preference at most

[lyric gyro]

absolutely, yes

Also FYI record classes are meant to be "immutable data carriers"; that means that, ideally, none of its components should be mutable too

Basically: the record type is the data, so the map should not be modifiable, it just holds data (also you can just use int lol)

[vale spindle]

Hi, I've an issue with registering a custom placeholder.

I have this in my main class:

        if (Bukkit.getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled("PlaceholderAPI")){
            PlaceholderAPI.registerPlaceholderHook(this, new PluginPlaceholders());
        }```

And it says the following in the console:
```XML
[17:10:07 INFO]: [TAB] Expansion BedWars is used but not installed. Installing!
[17:10:07 INFO]: Failed to find an expansion named: BedWars```

How can i fix this?

[lyric gyro]

I'm assuming you're using your own expansion in TAB?

You might need to add TAB as loadbefore in your plugin.yml

To ensure your plugin, well, loads before tab

[vale spindle]

Yes

I will try

[lyric gyro]

https://bukkit.fandom.com/wiki/Plugin_YAML

[vale spindle]

Nope, didn't work.

[heavy wadi]

Thanks for your reply 🙂 I believe I'm using the record correctly. I set the data when I'm initializing it, but I'm not modifying it afterwards, I'm just using getters to work with the data.

The Integer is nullable, that's why I'm using the object as opposed to just int. I actually have it annotated with @Nullable in my code, but I simplified it a bit because I didn't want to post huge ass code block in here 😄

[prisma briar]

new PluginPlaceholders().register()

[vale spindle]

isn't a function

[prisma briar]

Check the papi wiki to register the expansion, I can't give it to you I'm in my phone rn

[molten wagon]

I have counter a issue. When download a project from github change one method and push it to github it take whole class (it first remove all methods and imports and add that back). Only happens when push that class first time. Even if I only change one method or add 1 space.

Hey everyone 👋
I'm having some trouble with Gradle building a plugin. I've tried searching the issue online, but to no avail.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Could not find spigot-api-1.17.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar (org.spigotmc:spigot-api:1.17.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT:20211030.233838-4).
Searched in the following locations:
    https://hub.spigotmc.org/nexus/content/repositories/snapshots/org/spigotmc/spigot-api/1.17.1-R0.1-SNAPSHOT/spigot-api-1.17.1-R0.1-20211030.233838-4.jar

As I understand this is typically a failure to find the specified dependency in the maven repo. I've went ahead and added these guys to the repositories section. No change in build result.

repositories {
    mavenCentral() // Added
    mavenLocal()// Added
    maven { url = "https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/arcane/archive/maven/" }

[lone saddle]

@strange remnant Make something in your main like

public static Main instance;
public static Main getInstance() {

then you can go in your Freeze class and change the plugin.frozenPlayers to Main.getInstance().frozenPlayers

FAQ Answer:

Dependency Injection
Dependency Injection is a way of providing objects with the objects they need ("dependencies"). This is usually done with a constructor, but can also be done for individual methods

Technically it’s more logical, but it’s just a variable name

Oke

[graceful hedge]

You probably want to reformat that code a bit 🍉

For instance generally all the fields should be above constructors and methods

[dusky harness]

this is what i would see

• none of your messages besides the one with the code
• other people
• your message not in a reply

conclusion: you're not in a conversation

sorry that I didn't see it, mb

[warm steppe]

main class named Main tho

dont do that

pls

[graceful hedge]

Yeah should probably consider a refactor there

[dusky harness]

and if I saw it before you sent the "i fixed it" message, I would have asked for the error

[topaz gust]

Anyhoo, some tips for your next project or you can refractor like conclure suggested.

1. Try and avoid naming your main class main (it’s messy when you start working with dependencies)
2. Try and use getters and setters as your public variable accessors and keep the variable itself private.
3. Try to keep up Dependency Injection it will help you out a lot in the long term

[strange remnant]

I know the Main class thing because of an video "Why you shouldn't name your Main class Main"

[topaz gust]

And from my time in this discord if someone doesn’t smack me in the first minute my advice was probably not awful

[strange remnant]

I mean a spigot thing

[graceful hedge]

I’d consider MainPlugin doable, but yeah Main is probably a bit too ambiguous of a name for a plugin

[strange remnant]

Wdym private

[topaz gust]

So an example would be your freezePlayers map

[strange remnant]

The problem is It's my first small big plugin with multiple classes

And really learning

so Main was just easy

[graceful hedge]

Yeah, keep fighting (:

[topaz gust]

Instead of having that variable public instead have it private and create some getters and setters to modify it.

Example:

private List<UUID> playersIds = new ArrayList<>();

public List<UUID> getPlayerIds() {
return playerIds
}

Done on phone so don’t smack me too hard guys

[dusky harness]

ex in java public HashMap<Player, Location> frozenPlayers = new HashMap<>(); the variable is public - which means that you can do plugin.frozenPlayers (accessing the variable directly)

a better way would be ```java
private HashMap<Player, Location> frozenPlayers = new HashMap<>();

public HashMap<Player, Location> getFrozenPlayers() { // a getter method
return frozenPlayers;
}
```which you would have to do plugin.getFrozenPlayers() instead (and since frozenPlayers is private, if you try doing plugin.frozenPlayers, it'll error out)

an example from the spigot api would be Bukkit.getWorlds() instead of Bukkit.worlds

[strange remnant]

I just read a small explanation about Private and Public

It's just basically Private cannot access other classes in the same package
and public can

that is it right?

[dusky harness]

oops

didn't mean to send that yet

[strange remnant]

so the public HashMap<Player, Location> getFrozenPlayers() { return frozenPlayers;

is actually calling for the HashMap frozenPlayers

[dusky harness]

yes

[strange remnant]

Wait can you copy that message and send me that privately?

[dusky harness]

this one?

[strange remnant]

Yes so I can read threw that if I need it

[dusky harness]

sure

[strange remnant]

Should I test myself tomorrow and send you the end result of that?

Because it's a bit late today for me

[dusky harness]

yea :)

[strange remnant]

Ok I will if I have enough time to go on my pc a lot of tests this week and learning Java.

Is a lot to do at the same time

[dusky harness]

private and public doesn't have to do with packages (although if you don't put any modifier then it's package private I think - which is what you might be finding out about)

private means that it can't be accessed from any other classes - packages don't matter with private

public is correct - for example if getWorlds() in Bukkit.getWorlds() was private, then it would error when you tried to do Bukkit.getWorlds(), since Bukkit is a different class than what you're calling it from

and if you don't want to read all that xD:
tldr: you got it correct except private means cannot access from any other class, not just from package

[strange remnant]

but if I make it a private HashMap it needs another line to call that HashMap and that needs to be public so it can be accessed in any other class

[dusky harness]

yep

variables should always be private (with one exception), and so to get that variable from another class you'd use a variable which is public

[strange remnant]

so in my freeze class I will need to change it to example "plugin.getfrozenPlayers"

[dusky harness]

yes

remember that methods always have () (which are used for parameters) - plugin.getFrozenPlayers()

ex ```java
private HashMap<Player, Location> frozenPlayers = new HashMap<>();

public HashMap<Player, Location> getFrozenPlayers() { // a getter method
return frozenPlayers;
}
```notice how the variable name is just frozenPlayers while the method name has getFrozenPlayers()

and if you remove the () from the method it'll start erroring 🥴

[strange remnant]

so it will be plugin.getFrozenPlayers().put

[dusky harness]

yep 👍

[graceful hedge]

Ideally we don’t expose virgin data structures like that but yeah it’s somewhat better than a mere public field.

[strange remnant]

virgin data structures ;o

[dusky harness]

lol

i think what conclure means is that instead of getFrozenPlayers().put it's better to do addFrozenPlayer(player, location)

[graceful hedge]

^

[strange remnant]

parameters are used to call for something, That's why we need that because we are calling a HashMap?

plugin.frozenPlayers.put(target, target.getLocation().clone());

I now have this

so I will need to do

plugin.addfrozenPlayers(player, location)

[dusky harness]

close - methods are used to call for something
this is a method: ```java
public HashMap<Player, Location> getFrozenPlayers() { // a getter method
return frozenPlayers;
}

and this is a parameter: ```java
()

an example of using a parameter in ur plugin is ```java
public Freeze(Freeze freeze) {
plugin = freeze;
}

the "method" is ```java
public Freeze(Freeze freeze) {
    plugin = freeze;
}
```while the parameter is ```java
(Freeze freeze)
```which are basically variables passed into methods

[leaden sinew]

No you Freeze, freeze

[strange remnant]

public Freeze(Main freeze) {
plugin = freeze;

its now this

[leaden sinew]

}

Would also be a constructor

[dusky harness]

you don't have to, but it's good practice to do so - and if you do want to here's the code required: ```java
public void addFrozenPlayer(Player player, Location location) { // parameters!
frozenPlayers.put(player, location);
}

[leaden sinew]

Should be this.frozenPlayers.put(player, location);

Come on Dkim

[strange remnant]

over 2 days I am gonna learn about config's so I don't have to hard code it with my own prefixes

[dusky harness]

btw

a suggestion: don't store Players
instead store the player's UUIDs

when putting in map: map.put(player.getUniqueId(), ..) instead of map.put(player, ..)

and to convert a UUID to Player, use Bukkit.getPlayer(uuid)

reason: the Player might become invalid

ex if a player leaves the server

which will cause a memory leak 🙃 (not a noticeable one for now, but good practice to not storing Players)

[pure crater]

[strange remnant]

I tried there is nothing like getUniqueId

[dusky harness]

player.getUniqueId()?

[strange remnant]

look for the screenshot

in pm

[leaden sinew]

I haven't heard of it,
when would you ever want to do

ClassFile cf = new ClassFile(
  false, "com.baeldung.JavassistGeneratedClass", null);
cf.setInterfaces(new String[] {"java.lang.Cloneable"});

FieldInfo f = new FieldInfo(cf.getConstPool(), "id", "I");
f.setAccessFlags(AccessFlag.PUBLIC);
cf.addField(f);

Over creating a new class yourself?

Or is it for editing classes?

[pure crater]

dynamic class generation

luckperms uses dynamic class generation with bytebuddy i heard

i just said javaassist cause a lot of plugins have it shaded but dont know what it does

XD

[leaden sinew]

oh

When would you need dynamic class generation?

[graceful hedge]

Rarely

Most times we can just load a jar file with classes dynamically

[pure crater]

luckperms uses it for generating implementation of event interfaces

bytebuddy

it doesnt use java assist

The LuckPerms API has so many events you can subscribe to on the event bus that the implementation is generated at runtime

[lyric gyro]

[strange remnant]

@EventHandler public void onPlayerMoveBlock(PlayerMoveEvent e) { if(!frozenPlayers.containsKey(e.getPlayer())) { return; } if(e.getFrom().getBlockX() != e.getTo().getBlockX() || e.getFrom().getBlockZ() != e.getTo().getBlockZ()){ e.getPlayer().teleport(frozenPlayers.get(e.getPlayer())); }

I changed it based on UUID like @dusky harness told me to but now I fucked up my @EventHandler
Because it can't get the player out of the HashMap

[dusky harness]

contiansKey(e.getPlayer().getUniqueId())

[strange remnant]

I almost had it then because I tried that but

almost

[dusky harness]

and then teleport(frozenPlayers.get(e.getPlayer().getUniqueId()))

would that be the kind of garbage collection that gets disabled by the +DisableExplicitGC flag?

[steady ingot]

for anyone that has done C++, are methods usually in PascalCase, camelCase, or snake_case? I heard that variables should be in snake_case.

[bright pier]

I've mostly been using PascalCase personally for variables and methods. But I guess it's personal preference

[steady ingot]

Rn, I'm using PascalCase for Classes, camelCase for methods, and snake_case for variables. Feels all over the place.

• coming form languages where I never ever use snake_case, half my variables end up in camelCase :/

[bright pier]

I'm following an online course thingy (for game development with c++ and Unreal Engine) and i've been using PascalCase for everything. (apart from the usual prefixing bools with b or enums with e)

I personally think it looks better with c++ but for something like Java, it's PascalCase for classes, and camelCase for methods and camelCase and snake_case for variables.

[steady ingot]

My online course thingy said to use this. So I followed it, and I still don't know if it's right cause there's so much conflicting info.

Time to go clean up all my camelCase variables and change them into snake_case ones :/

[bright pier]

I guess it really comes down to personal preference. I like how it all looks with everything being PascalCase for c++

If I was going to use something else for variables and methods, Id pick camelCase for them unless its long, then i'd use snake_case for readability.

[heavy wadi]

I believe when I was doing c++ a while back, everything camelCase was the way to go.
Personally, I do actually prefer snake_case for variables tho. It's a little more annoying to write, but way easier to read imo.

[near lagoon]

https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/codeconventions-namingconventions.html

[lyric gyro]

Oh god that was 7 hours ago lmao

[heavy wadi]

Hehe, I was just curious 😄

Question: How do you deal with NullPointerExceptions, unchecked casts etc. IntelliJ complains about that can only occur for example if the user deletes essential parts of the config file?
Do you just annotate them with @SuppressWarnings and call it a day?

[prisma briar]

I mostly ignore warning like that but sometimes I dealt with it.

But you should consider trying to fix that tho.

[strange remnant]

switching over to IntelliJ

how much + am I getting

[prisma briar]

are you asking?

[strange remnant]

yeah

[prisma briar]

well, there's a lot but the most important is you will code more faster and efficient

because of the auto-completions and lots of shortcuts

[strange remnant]

are there good plugins for IntelliJ

so what

[prisma briar]

I don't use plugins on IntelliJ.

Except the discord integration

[heavy wadi]

What are you switching from?
Personally, I had been using Eclipse at uni and getting my hands on IntelliJ was a night and day difference.

[strange remnant]

Eclipse

[prisma briar]

it will be so much better

[strange remnant]

Eclipse is easy to use but people keep saying that IntelliJ is gonna be beter

and today I am gonna start watching this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xk4_1vDrzzo&list=WL&index=71&t=20s

[heavy wadi]

It is much better. Just give it a shot. You can test the community version for free or even the full version if you are a student. The only reason not to use IntelliJ is if you have an old PC, because IntelliJ will eat considerably more RAM and be heavier on your CPU.

[strange remnant]

Ryzen 5 3600
16 gb 3600mhz

I guess I will be fine

[prisma briar]

you probably uses eclipse because the video tutorial that you watched is using eclipse

[strange remnant]

how to out zoom in IntelliJ

[broken elbow]

I use ctrl + wheel but I'm pretty sure I had to change it to use that. in the settings you should be able to set the keybinds

[lone saddle]

File - Settings - Editor - General and first setting Change font size with Ctrl+Mouse Wheel

[steady ingot]

That's what I do as long as I'm confident. The way the config works is that it'll try to get a value from the config.yml in the server. If that is null, it'll then try to retrieve a value form the default config bundled into the plugin. If that too fails, then it gives null.

[dense drift]

No?

If the value is not present in config it will return null or a default value specified by you or for instance 0 for getInt

[steady ingot]

I couldn't get it ho work with docdex, never properly used it before

[vagrant bobcat]

Can someone compile a plugin for me? Its with Gradle and Kotlin.

[robust flower]

why? compile it yourself, it's easy

[vagrant bobcat]

Im not a Developer

[robust flower]

no worries

open your terminal, cd "the path of the folder", run ./gradlew shadowJar and that should be it

if on windows, open your cmd, cd /d "the path of the folder", run gradlew shadowJar and that should be it

[vagrant bobcat]

.rar folder or a normal folder?

[robust flower]

extract the .rar into a folder

[vagrant bobcat]

Done

[robust flower]

then just follow the instructions

your jar will be located at "projectfolder"/build/libs/theJar.jar

[vagrant bobcat]

Do you mean location with the path of the folder?

[robust flower]

are you using windows or linux?

[vagrant bobcat]

windows

[robust flower]

then navigate to the project folder (where you extracted the .rar), and click on this empty space, then copy the text that will appear, that's your path

I have some questions about permission management:

• What is the easiest best way of temporarily giving or taking permissions from a Player? From what I've read, seems like PermissionAttachment is the way to go, but I never really used it so I'm not sure how it works, for example, does those "attachments" persist between server restarts (do I have to explicitly remove them)? How do they behave alongside permission plugins like LuckPerms?
• If PermissionAttachment are not the best way of doing this, then does LuckPerms expose some kind of method to allow plugins to easily give or remove (temporary) permissions?

Btw, for the use case I'm looking into, all permissions can be safety reset when a player logs off, that's completely acceptable (and even desirable).

@vagrant bobcat send a pic of your project files, it seems like you're missing the gradle wrapper

http://imgur.com

[vagrant bobcat]

I will send it in a bit, eating rn.

[icy shadow]

pretty sure they dont persist, and permissions plugins should respect them

[robust flower]

run gradlew wrapper shadowJar

[vagrant bobcat]

Could not find or load it

[manic saddle]

In command sl, description & aliases have only 3 spaces. They need 4 spaces.

[dense galleon]

IntelliJ keeps telling me to convert a lot of my listener classes into records

Should I do that..?

[lyric gyro]

no

[manic saddle]

commands need 2 spaces, description and aliases need 4

`depend:

• SL`
  Do you have on your server plugin called SL?

Do you know what for is depend?

[lyric gyro]

do those "attachments" persist between server restarts
as far as Bukkit (no perms plugin) or w/ LuckPerms is concerned, no they don't
How do they behave alongside permission plugins like LuckPerms?
LP integrates with them nicely, it's just like another permission added but that doesn't save to storage
does LuckPerms expose some kind of method to allow plugins to easily give or remove (temporary) permissions?
it has a whole ass API so you bet it's possible
all permissions can be safety reset when a player logs off
again, with just bukkit or w/ LP that is the case; I personally don't know the behavior with other perms plugins (pex, groupmanager, powerranks, ultrapermissions, ...) because I'm simply not interested lol
seems like PermissionAttachment is the way to go
it's probably the least convoluted way; depending on how the other perms plugins work, it may or may not be a "one size fits all" solution

[manic saddle]

Are you using Eclipse/Intellij?

[dense galleon]

is there any way to check what is different between two items which seem identical to me?

It's something with the NBT tags for sure

But I have no idea what it could be, still

[manic saddle]

And where is your plugin.yml in your plugin?

Try to open the extracted .jar file with rar/zip and see if there is plugin.yml

[robust flower]

nah tbh I don't care about other permission plugins since the plugin I'll have to make is targeting a single network which uses LP so I can safely use its API if it is the best approach

[dense galleon]

This is such an annoying warning that imo doesn't make any sense in the context of when I use such method

Is there any way to suppress the warning just for the setBaseValue() method?

[leaden sinew]

It may throw an NPE

[robust flower]

with KT you can easily use ?. to avoid that there should be a suppress for that, you only have to press your ALT + Enter key, press whatever arrow it is on the first option, then select "suppress warning for this method"

[leaden sinew]

ItemStack#equals or ItemStack#isSimilar

[dense galleon]

That suppresses it just for the method, meaning that if I do setBaseValue() in 100 methods in other classes I need to add that suppress line in each of those

[leaden sinew]

Why not null check?

[robust flower]

if you don't want the warn for the project, then select the option that disables it on your entire project man 🤷‍♂️

[leaden sinew]

And you shouldn’t be repeating code that much

[dense galleon]

Doesn't that disable the warning for ALL methods in my entire project?

It doesnt disable it just for setBasevalue()

[robust flower]

yes, isn't that what you want?

[dense galleon]

I might need it for other methods

[dense galleon]

I mean

[robust flower]

it's not the attribute method, is for YOUR method

[dense galleon]

Yeah I know, but if I got a lot of methods that use that method... it's a lot of repetition

[robust flower]

then disable that shit on your project or class man

you have to choose the scope: line, method, class, package, project

[leaden sinew]

DRY

[dense galleon]

If I got 25 entities with different stats I have to repeat myself in order to give them different stats

Kinda unavoidable

[leaden sinew]

You can simplify it

[dense galleon]

Adding a method which takes 3 parameters like HP damage and speed I know

[leaden sinew]

setStats(1, 1, 1)

So why not do it?

[dense galleon]

I just got around to refactoring that I guess lol ops

Either way I am using that specific method in a LOT of methods in different contexts in different classes

That's why I was asking if there was a way to suppress a warning related to one specific method

[leaden sinew]

Just use null checks

[forest jay]

hi! I am trying to get all the current servers on a bungeecord network, when a command is sent. But it doesnt return any. I think I am not waiting long enough for the message to be send back, but I am not sure. The code is a bit separated but I can try and send the bulk of it

here is the code that runs the first function: java public Inventory createLobbyInv(Player p) { SendMessage.sendGatherLobbies(p); lobbyGUI = Bukkit.createInventory(p, 54, ChatColor.AQUA + "Lobby Selector"); for (int i = 0; i < lobbies.size(); i++) { lobbies.get(i).setAmount(i); lobbyGUI.addItem(lobbies.get(i)); } return lobbyGUI; }

There's Block#getRelative btw

[dense galleon]

Honestly now that I think about it I don't remember, I have made this method like 1.5 years ago and I am just now revisiting it to see how I can improve it

What's that..?

[dusky harness]

ex Block#getRelative(BlockFace.UP) to get the block above

[dense galleon]

Oh that's cool I didn't know

so Block beneath = world.getBlockAt(spawnLoc).getRelative(BlockFace.DOWN); instead of Block beneath = world.getBlockAt(spawnLoc.clone().add(0, -1, 0));

Either way, the method is probably slow

But I don't know how else I could improve it..?

Also, you are telling me that with BlockFace I can technically get a block's surrounding 26 blocks?

i give it the right cordents but it just barly moves or just doeswhat i want it to

im so confused

if anyone understand what im trying to say

[copper spear]

it works when im not in minecraft but when im in game

it dosent

[pulsar ferry]

Python minecraft coding?

[dusky harness]

• why
• what library are you using
• button='right'
• wouldn't the trees uh... disappear once you break them?

[proud pebble]

from the context theyre trying to make a script to auto break logs ingame, kinda like a macro

[dusky harness]

if you want something to break logs you'd need a hack client or a mod

aka Impact

[marble nimbus]

when using Gradle is it possible to specify isTransistive = false without using () around the compileOnly?

the FAWE API has this as an example compileOnly("com.fastasyncworldedit:FastAsyncWorldEdit-Bukkit:1.17-<version>") { isTransitive = false }
but in my Gradle I don't use () around the dependency because I think it looks better, is there a way to specify it anyways?

it looks like this for me : compileOnly 'com.fastasyncworldedit:FastAsyncWorldEdit-Bukkit:1.17-393'

Question, Sooo I have this idea where i want to make a miniture world basically, 10x10 chunks inside a void world and then spiral it outwards like skyblock islands. I have the spiral down, but im not sure how to generate only the 10x10 chunk inside the void world based off a central location. Can someone explain how i should go abt this

[marble nimbus]

So I have made a very similar project, the Files for it are on a different Machine which I cannot access right now. Your best shot would be waiting for Emily to respond, she was the one that made the Code for my Project. I have the same thing, I have a 2x2 Chunk area which goes outwards in a spiral pattern, but in my case I also place a Schematic

[rigid mountain]

Ok

[wintry grove]

is there an easier way to get commands registered in the plugin.yml? I have got an entire custom system for the execution and so but for the plugin.yml thing is a pain

[rigid mountain]

ping me if you have an idea

[steady ingot]

Lots for plugin command frameworks have automatic adding to plugin.yml. You can probably take a look at their annotation register thingys if you really want.

[leaden sinew]

How would I get the world name of a world with fabric? Sorry I'm new to making mods.

How do I turn a UUID as a string into a players name?

[dense drift]

Bukkit#getPlayer(uuid)#getName() ?

[void orchid]

Turn the UUID string to an UUID object by UUID.fromString method, then get the name by Bukkit.getOfflinePlayer(uuid).getName or Bukkit.getPlayer.getName if you're quite sure that the player is online

[limber hedge]

the string into uuid

if thay player is offline

the getPlayer doesnt work

[void orchid]

[void orchid]

you're very welcome

[wary void]

There's this thing I've seen in spigot coding where there's an Entity enum, then inside of Entity they have a LivingEntity and inside of that they have a Mob category and a Monster category and its this whole tree. I want to use this in one of my plugins but I have no idea what this is called. Can someone point me in the right direction for what to look up?

If it helps, specifically what I want is an Enum called CustomSound which has both drum sounds and musical sounds. I want a function to specify if it takes a drum sound or a musical one. drum and musical sounds would both have the same information which is just a minecraft Sound

I already have the CustomSound enum I just dont now how to make the sub enums

[void orchid]

same information as a minecraft sound? mind elaborating on that one?

[wary void]

public enum CustomSound {
    HARP(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_HARP),
    BASS(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_BASS),
    IRON_XYLOPHONE(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_IRON_XYLOPHONE),
    BELL(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_BELL),
    BASEDRUM(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_BASEDRUM),
    SNARE(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_SNARE),
    HAT(Sound.BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_HAT);

    public final Sound sound;

    CustomSound(Sound sound) {
        this.sound = sound;
    }
}```

I have this an an enum. HARP, BASS, IRON_XYLOPHONE, and BELL are musical sounds but BASEDRUM, SNARE, and HAT are drum sounds. I was hoping there would be a way to categories them into categories like "drum" and "musical" and only take one of those categories in a function but I think I've realized that what I'm looking for doesn't actually exist :/

[void orchid]

If i understood you correctly, you could create two Enums, Drum & Musical. from there, move the appropriate sounds to their own respective category

hold on

right, apparently Enums could implement interfaces so, you could have those two Enums implement CustomSound and have a static? method on CustomSound which would take CustomSound as an argument?

[wary void]

That pretty much sounds like what I'm looking for, what would I look up to find how exactly to do that?

[void orchid]

which parts do you want me to elaborate on?

[ebon whale]

Public static -

[wary void]

I was mostly looking for the exact syntax which is why I was looking for what I could look up to find it

[wary void]

was this a response to the think I'm asking about?

[void orchid]

are you new to Java?

[wary void]

Eh? I've been doing it for a year or two

sorry I didnt mean to reply to that message like that

[void orchid]

I don't mind

[wary void]

I think at this point I've gotten enough to be able to find what I'm looking for? So thank you for this

[void orchid]

I hope that was the case, feel free to @ me if you couldn't figure it out

[wary void]

Alright I will

Thank you once again

[void orchid]

You're very welcome, good luck to you! :)

Has anyone here ever user JDA? If so, then why does ShardManager not return any guild if the bot clearly is in one?

[broken elbow]

no. never heard of it

[broken elbow]

ugh. both getGuildCache and getGuilds are marked as not nullable. so don't think it should be returning null at all?

oh wait you didnt say null

fuck nvm

[warm steppe]

It just doesn't loop at all xd

like if there were no guilds

[broken elbow]

check the CacheFlags you've disabled

maybe there's one for that

also apparently that can return empty if the jda hasn't fully started yet or something like that

yeah. according to this post, guilds are always cached and another post said that JDA#getGuilds can return null or empty if the jda has not fully started yet.

[warm steppe]

ah nvm i had to do shard#awaitReady()

[broken elbow]

yeah. tho they recommend you use the ReadyEvent instead

u should join their discord. there's a lot of useful stuff there

[broken elbow]

that just makes everything stop until the jda instance is fully loaded. so exactly the problem described above

[formal crane]

anyone here experienced with jda?

[broken elbow]

no

[broken elbow]

why?

[formal crane]

because i am getting an error when disabling the bot

[wintry grove]

gotcha, but which one do you recomend?

[broken elbow]

well what error? you'll have to share more information with us if you want help. put any errors or code snippets in https://paste.helpch.at

[marble nimbus]

how can I get the center of an AABB constructed by 2 vectors?

(I am shit at math btw)

[pulsar ferry]

What's wonky about it? I get confused but wonky?

[marble nimbus]

also does anybody know PacketWrappers for Protocolllib for 1.17?

or anything above 1.15

[dense drift]

bad

[pulsar ferry]

Very

[marble nimbus]

so how does this: ```Java
int id = ThreadLocalRandom.current().nextInt(99000, 99999);
WrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving = new WrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving();
wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving.setType(EntityType.ARMOR_STAND);
wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving.setEntityID(id);
wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving.setX(player.getLocation().getX());
wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving.setY(player.getLocation().getY());
wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving.setZ(player.getLocation().getZ());
wrapperPlayServerSpawnEntityLiving.sendPacket(player);

    WrapperPlayServerEntityEquipment17 wrapperPlayServerEntityEquipment17 = new WrapperPlayServerEntityEquipment17();
    wrapperPlayServerEntityEquipment17.setEntityID(id);
    wrapperPlayServerEntityEquipment17.setItem(EnumWrappers.ItemSlot.HEAD, new ItemUtils(Material.DIAMOND_HELMET).build());
    wrapperPlayServerEntityEquipment17.sendPacket(player);``` end up in this?

Is that a new Type of ArmorStand?

[tight junco]

that is such a long variable name holy shit

its also probably because of the entity id

[marble nimbus]

entityIDs matter?! I thought its just an int to keep track of the entity

[pulsar ferry]

Tbh that's good, better than wpssel

[marble nimbus]

Matt hewp :c why I have a Ghast and not an ArmorStand with a diamond Helmet?

[pulsar ferry]

Matt is currently unavailable please leave your message
Jokes a side, idk sorry i don't really play around with packets that much

[lyric gyro]

No, but entity type id matters

[pulsar ferry]

Those don't exist anymore

[marble nimbus]

I think its caused by the Wrapper I am using? its last update was for 1.15.2

but there isn't anything newer

and building Packets from scratch is painful

[lyric gyro]

they are used in packets

[marble nimbus]

the Wrapper does that, it takes the EntityType uses #getTypeId and puts that into the Packet

my guess is that something got changed in some update which causes the Wrapper to break

[pulsar ferry]

Yes but he already has that setType(EntityType.ARMOR_STAND)

[marble nimbus]

let me try using EntityType Ghast instead of Armorstand 😄

[lyric gyro]

but that doesnt work

so

[tight junco]

are you spawning entities with packets

[lyric gyro]

he is

[marble nimbus]

Okay so using EntityType Ghast does nothing?

[tight junco]

https://github.com/Oribuin/EternalCrates/blob/main/NMS/v1_16_R3/src/main/java/xyz/oribuin/eternalcrates/v1_16_R3/NMSHandlerImpl.java#L33 might not help but try looking at that

that spawns a clientside entity

do with it what you will

[marble nimbus]

That is exactly what I am looking for buuuuut It has NMS :c

aka I need to add the bukkit dependency thing

which might even be easier then what I am doing

Do you think that will also work in 1.17?

[tight junco]

it does

if you convert it to 1.17

[marble nimbus]

also when getting the Entity from the Method making it invisible isn't a problem right?

[lyric gyro]

https://pastebin.com/L7tw9hy2

Ah that wouldnt work on 1.17 i thunk

[marble nimbus]

we will find out in about 10 sec

nope

ClassNotFound IRegistry

[lyric gyro]

that was expected

[marble nimbus]

I will just add NMS, it will probably be easier

what dependency do I need again?

craftbukkit?

[lyric gyro]

try using packet.getEntityTypeModifier().write tho!

[marble nimbus]

will do, can you tell me the dependency for NMS if that doesn't work

[pulsar ferry]

For NMS you need to run buildtools then add spigot instead of spigot-api

[marble nimbus]

but me use paper

no spigot

[broken elbow]

then paper instead of paper-api

[pulsar ferry]

You can still ad spigot for NMS but i think paper has a different way

[broken elbow]

also to add it to local maven is very easy

you need to run one command on the paper server jar

[lyric gyro]

yeah paper is different in this case

[marble nimbus]

does paper also have something like buildtools?

[broken elbow]

yes. you run a command on the server jar

[lyric gyro]

Yes, paperclip

[broken elbow]

let me see if I can find the command

java -Dpaperclip.install=true -jar paperclip.jar

[lyric gyro]

But tho if you're on gradle you may just use paperweight-userdev to develop against mojang mappings!

[broken elbow]

paperclip.jar being the server jar you downloaded

but this only works on 1.16.4 or newer

[marble nimbus]

That is cool, all done. took one command, me like

ehh wait? net.minecraft doesn't exist?

[lyric gyro]

did it work btw? Just interesting

[marble nimbus]

nope

[broken elbow]

you need to use maven local and paper instead of paper-api

[lyric gyro]

same? You got a ghast?

[marble nimbus]

nope: No field with type net.minecraft.world.entity.EntityTypes exists in class PacketPlayOutSpawnEntityLiving.

[marble nimbus]

ahh I forgot mavenLocal i think

[lyric gyro]

ahh

Are you on gradle? Then use paperweight!

[marble nimbus]

ohh I will give it a look once I get this working

but currently struggeling with IRegistry

YES!

[marble nimbus]

Thanks alot!

just the entityCount field was wrong because it doesn't exist in Paper its called "b"
Field entityCount = Class.forName("net.minecraft.world.entity.Entity").getDeclaredField("b");

doesn't look sketchy at all

But I can't seem to Cast the returned entity to Armorstand ?

oh because you never return it lol

[pure crater]

its called obfuscation

md reverted all fields back into their obfuscated form

it used to be named properly like entityCount between 1.12 and 1.16, but in 1.17, md just decided to revert them to the obfuscated form

your code wont work for 1.12 - 1.16

but then again, 1.17 supremacy good

lol

[marble nimbus]

this doesn't seem like a good Idea nor a good solution: return loc.getNearbyLivingEntities(1).stream().filter(p -> p.getEntityId() == packet.b()).collect(Collectors.toList()).get(0);

[marble nimbus]

doesn't matter it will be 1.17 only

[pure crater]

Mhm thats why i dont think its a big deal at the end of the day XD

[marble nimbus]

okay so my solution did not work :/

https://paste.helpch.at/itovaroqow.java this is the current code it normally returned null but I need the Entity so I can modify it further

let me upload to paste

[dense drift]

first().orElse(null);

[marble nimbus]

my current solution doesn't work because the List is empty

so I need a different way of getting the Entity

[pure crater]

maybe you need to do .equals for uuid but im not sure how spigot handles it internally

because idk if spigot copies the uuid over, or sets it into the memory with like same value you know

print the ID's just in case

Returns:

Entity id

Page 0 • Requested by: PulseBeat_02 • paper

[pure crater]

Nevermind

its an integer

bruh

just print out both ids regardless ig

[marble nimbus]

so neither using the entityid nor the UUID of the Entity I am able to get the Entity

it returns null

I am printing out the UUID and I get : fb9b705b-9a23-48fb-9992-d458e9f4aa91

is it maybe because its spawned using Packets so it doesn't actually exist?

Returns:

the collection of entities near location. This will always be a non-null collection.

Parameters:

location - The center of the bounding box
x - 1/2 the size of the box along x axis
y - 1/2 the size of the box along y axis
z - 1/2 the size of the box along z axis
filter - only entities that fulfill this predicate are considered, or null to consider all entities
