oh ok thanks g

#

waffle king also when i add galistener placeholder to deluxemenus it doesn't work it just shows the placeholder am i missing an expansion?

trim mist Dec 18, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

That expansion has not been updated in 4 years, and, clip isn't the developer for that one. Reach out to the developer, but, I doubt they really care anymore.

austere hawk Dec 18, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

oh ok and ya looks like it didn't show the update issue anymore so it was the wrong version he uploaded then

Hello Friend! Could you help me with the DeluxeMenu plugin. The fact is that I run version 1.10.4 of the plugin on the papermc 1.12.2 core and everything works fine, but as soon as I want to install the latest version, I get errors in the console, they say I have incorrectly specified the id of the item and this error appears even in standard files that are created automatically by the plugin the first time.

austere hawk Dec 18, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

you need to update

balmy agate Dec 18, 2020, 11:48 PM

#

What exactly to update?

#

Here's the error: ( Material for item: examplecd in menu: advanced_menu is not a valid material name / id! )

sage thicket Dec 19, 2020, 12:11 AM

The error im having is kiteboard 😛

This is kinda bizzare, but I had to kinda force-update JS expansion stuff to 1.7 for new engine setup

#

Meanwhile, lists every features that are needed for this. Thank you

austere hawk Dec 19, 2020, 8:10 AM

can we use /papi parse without an online player, cuz I don't want to close my IDE then start Minecraft and test and then close Minecraft and start IDE to code

@edgy notch Unknown expansion.

warm topaz Dec 19, 2020, 12:09 PM

#

yes

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 12:22 PM

#

well the ChatColor expansion is using an outdated way to register placeholders

#

it needs updating.

#

the dev of the ChatColor expansion

#

no idea who it is

#

Is it integrated in the plugin? If yes then the dev of the plugin itself has to update it

#

yeah seems like its integrated

#

well I mean ask the dev to update

#

oh wait

#

you're using v 6.2

#

why?

#

that plugin is at version 1.10.3

#

or something

#

are you sure you have the right plugin>

limber flax Dec 19, 2020, 1:32 PM

#

Does anyone know of a Placeholder that I can use to count forward from a specific date? For example, I want to be able to set the date to say 18 December 2020 and it should display 22 Hours 39 minutes and 10 seconds

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 1:33 PM

#

you can do it with javascript

#

if you want

#

I know I've done it before

#

maybe if I can find the file I'll send it to you

limber flax Dec 19, 2020, 1:33 PM

#

That'd be a big help, otherwise I'm gonna have to go and fiddle with js

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 1:34 PM

#

after this game tho

limber flax Dec 19, 2020, 1:34 PM

austere hawk Dec 19, 2020, 1:43 PM

#

brisk coral If it's a player specific placeholder then yes you will need an online player

I don't need to withdraw a player's info, so is there a command to run that placeholder or I have to create my own command and try it ?

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 1:46 PM

#

/papi parse null %placeholldeer%

#

should work

austere hawk Dec 19, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

nope

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 2:01 PM

#

doesn't seem like there is a parse command

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 2:03 PM

#

limber flax That'd be a big help, otherwise I'm gonna have to go and fiddle with js

here you go: https://paste.helpch.at/avediwajon.js

#

you need to use it like this: %javascript_timer_YEAR,DAY,HOUR,MINUTE,SECOND%

#

so for example %javascript_timer_2020_353,1,0,0%

#

would start a timer since yesterday 1 am

#

DAY = day of the year

#

not of the month btw

#

@limber flax ^

#

that js could probably require an update since its pretty old

#

but yeah xd if I do update it I'll let you know

limber flax Dec 19, 2020, 2:07 PM

#

Legend, thanks a ton!

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 2:07 PM

#

it uses 24 hours format btw @limber flax

#

not 12 hours

#

hope it still works btw xD

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 2:24 PM

#

@limber flax here you go: https://paste.helpch.at/zurewefime.js It did need updating.

#

the old one was a bit broken.

#

this one seems to work fine

#

I updated the math and the code

limber flax Dec 19, 2020, 2:26 PM

#

Okay, great. Thanks!

robust patrol Dec 19, 2020, 2:54 PM

#

Anyone know if there is a simple way to change a color or character that appears depending on a condition being met? e.g. %haspermission_example.perm% returning a tick or cross instead of true/false or changing the color already present e.g. green or red

Thanks 🙂

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 3:03 PM

#

well you could use the javascript placeholders

#

to make your own custom placeholders

#

robust patrol Dec 19, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

Yeah I did a bit of experimenting with that, it's a little annoying that the boolean thing in PlaceholderAPI's config seems to remap the output to yes/no rather than continuing to accept true/false

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 3:05 PM

#

well you can change the output yourself in config.yml

#

plugins/PlaceholderAPI/config.yml

#

but it will change it for all PAPI placeholders that return a boolean

robust patrol Dec 19, 2020, 3:05 PM

#

I have a lot of these

              type: string equals ignorecase
              input: '%player_has_permission_perm.1%'
              output: "no"```
which could be changed to this for future proofing
```            hasperm:
              type: string equals ignorecase
              input: '%player_has_permission_perm.1%'
              output: false```

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 3:05 PM

#

yeah well you can change that in config.yml once again

#

you can change the output to whatever you want

robust patrol Dec 19, 2020, 3:06 PM

#

But I'd have to make sure that green tick / red cross everywhere (and I have a bunch of menus). I'll give it a go

#

Thanks 🙂

If your editor has support for it, you can replace all (on my program I use ctrl+f for search and replace tool).

Yo, new to PAPI. I'm trying to use the placeholder %bungee_<servername>% in my plugin to send a message.
I already imported PAPI, how would I go about actually getting the placeholder to work in a string.
Thanks in advance.

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

Gotta download the expansion, run those commands this

sullen dome Dec 19, 2020, 5:01 PM

#

Ok. And then what do I have to do for %bungee_<servername>% to be replaced with the number of players?

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

put your server name in it

#

ah wait

#

your plugin?

#

as in you're developing a plugin to work with papi placeholders?

sullen dome Dec 19, 2020, 5:02 PM

#

Yes exactly

#

But I just want to broadcast a message with %bungee_<servername>%

#

will it work right away?

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

are you only using it for bungee placeholders?

sullen dome Dec 19, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

Right now yes

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:03 PM

#

welp it's pretty simple https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/PlaceholderAPI/wiki/Hook-into-PlaceholderAPI#setting-placeholders-in-your-plugin

#

just 1 line really (and all the checks and balances at startup ofc)

sullen dome Dec 19, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

Well yeah I read that page but do I put on event.getPlayer()? I don't have a player to use it with right?

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

PlaceholderAPI.setPlaceholders(Player, String);

#

huh?

#

You'll need to fake a player somehow

sullen dome Dec 19, 2020, 5:04 PM

#

Got it

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

could you not hook into the bungee api though?

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

can't you use null?

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

and do the same thing?

#

Maybe, give null a try

sullen dome Dec 19, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

@mint fable I'm trying out with this first but you're right I should use Bungee messages and whatnot

#

thx I'll try with null

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

@mint fable sry for ping you, beside the issue I send on github, I seams too fine. Has not find any more bugs soo far.

tender vaporBOT Dec 19, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

@flint nacelle,

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

So i should say it do what is say it should do and give items or send a number if it cant.

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 6:22 PM

#

give should not be used as a requirement

#

it should be used as a command

#

same for remove

#

because every time the placeholder is parsed, the action is run

#

what you should probably check is if they have an empty slot

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 6:23 PM

#

oright, so how should yes or a number work in a command?

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 6:24 PM

#

probably not the easiest to do with deluxemenus

#

most likely javascript placeholder would be able to take and store the remaining amount if needed

#

and the yes is just saying that it worked, so you can use that in javascript as well

#

it's just the boolean response of true since the placeholder has to return something

#

I'd say just check that they have an empty inventory spot and then use give as the command

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

oright god to know how it is thought too work, yes I understand that part, not how i shall use just this output for example take money or an other item from the player. no is not the easiest thing to do in dm.

but apart from this, what I can see give and the portions works fine. so for I think is ready for realise.

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

just uploaded it, updating wiki now 👍

#

thanks a bunch for the help again

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

no problems 🙂 you do a great job (is only me some causes problems 😉 )

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 6:38 PM

#

there was that one time where I removed all items in inventories though 😉

#

not too long ago 😂

#

@turbid tide I added give to checkitem fyi

turbid tide Dec 19, 2020, 6:40 PM

this will become a plugin soon xD

#

even tho there is one already

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

ye

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

Yes if it get to a plugin I will get it 🙂 no mater the cost 😉

mint fable Dec 19, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

imagine charging people to give players items

flint nacelle Dec 19, 2020, 6:48 PM

#

I allredy do it to players 🙂 . read somewhere by the way, you could submit your menu so it could end up on github? is it still possible?

Has three portions gui (for all three types). both sell and buy thanks to checkitem.

In that case, need to fix it so it is in English 🙂

What do you mean 'where do I add'?

#

Where do you want to use it lol

sick pawn Dec 19, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

Don't i need to add it in the config of DiscordSRV?

steep thorn Dec 19, 2020, 8:18 PM

#

I mean, that just looks like a placeholder? I never used DiscordSRV, but I don't see why you would need to use placeholder in there

sick pawn Dec 19, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

sick pawn Hello, Where do i add ``` %discordsrv_user_tag% ``` from discordSVR?

im using discordSRV to information of the people that are joining, i use the placeholders but how do i use this on

#

or is that not how it works

steep thorn Dec 19, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

I mean, based on what I see, that placeholder just shows what your Discord user tag is

#

' i use the placeholders but how do i use this on' does not make a lot of sense

#

In case you're trying to explain that the placeholder does not work, you probably need to do /papi ecloud download DiscordSRV

sick pawn Dec 19, 2020, 8:24 PM

i did but when i restart the server and i join it doesnt show the discord name + tag in the channel i've set it to

something like this should work

Thanks anyhow shixroix

Hope someone could help

would be cool if its specifcially for diamond in players inv

%checkitem_mat:diamond,amt:69%

I think

#

@dry heron

flint nacelle Dec 21, 2020, 10:35 AM

#

carmine veldt %checkitem_mat:diamond,amt:69%

that should work. But it will only give no or yes (or how you set it up in config).

junior musk Dec 21, 2020, 10:37 AM

#

you have to use %checkitem_amount_<modifiers>% instead

#

so I guess %checkitem_amount_mat:diamond%

#

and it will give you the amount of diamonds you have

flint nacelle Dec 21, 2020, 10:41 AM

👍 that will work Tanguygab 🙂

So that you don't have to hold it in your hand.
You wrote the command and checked the presence of the item if there is an item removed and the effect was obtained

how to add restarting papi ping that shows when server is restarting

carmine glade Dec 22, 2020, 12:03 AM

#

How do you remove an ecloud extension? I deleted the jar in the expansions folder and restarted but it says it's still installed

warm topaz Dec 22, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

that is how u remove an expansion? are u sure u actually deleted it 🤔

carmine glade Dec 22, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

Yeah, do I have to clear the cache too?

#

Hmm, nope did that and then did papi reload and it is still showing as installed

warm topaz Dec 22, 2020, 12:10 AM

#

stop server
delete jar
start server

carmine glade Dec 22, 2020, 12:27 AM

#

It still says it's installed and that's after I deleted the whole plugins folder. I guess some plugins auto-install expansions? Parkour 6.0 is the one I'm talking about

warm topaz Dec 22, 2020, 12:31 AM

#

oh right that makes more sense then

#

the parkour expansion is built into the plugin itself

#

so to delete the expansion, the plugin in ur plugins folder would have to be deleted

atomic trench Dec 22, 2020, 12:43 AM

Is there an Expansion that helps me check if the input is a playername? Something like %isname_<input>% or anything similar?

probably not

im down to make this tho 🤣

atomic trench Dec 22, 2020, 1:00 AM

warm topaz im down to make this tho 🤣

You would help me a lot ngl

Maybe a js would do the job? I was trying to do that but I can't think of a way to check if a variable == connected player name

eh possibly

atomic trench Dec 22, 2020, 1:05 AM

You can also code something with javascript with the Javascript expansion

solid mesa Dec 22, 2020, 1:47 AM

For all those who have suffered like me...

I spent 2 days trying to make it work!
If you use plugins such as PlaceholderAPI + MyCommand...
be Aware that the PlaceholderAPI configuration will show the following lines
boolean:
'true': 'true'
'false': 'false'
If you change the value to " then in any case write not true but the value that you set... If you don't do this, then nothing will work for you. To hide the annoying message, just run with RUN_CONSOLE

`test:
command: /test
type: RUN_CONSOLE
placeholders_replace_mode : ONLY_PLACEHOLDER_API
runcmd:

"$Script$%if%%checkitem_mat:STONE%==true"
"%checkitem_remove_mat:STONE,amt:1%"
"%PlayerOptions%chat: YES"
"%PlayerOptions%playEffect: WITHER_SHOOT"
"%PlayerOptions%playSound: NOTE_BASS:3.0F:1"
$Script$%else%
$text$NO!
permission-required: false`

#

This script checks for the presence of a stone and if there is one takes one

carmine veldt Dec 22, 2020, 10:40 AM

#

I don't see a need to remove it

#

and I can see why keeping it may be beneficial

#

afaik you can add more scripting languages to the jvm

#

so if for some reason a user had an altered java, they could use their own script engine

turbid tide Dec 22, 2020, 10:41 AM

at least remove the "error"

that's just a debug message no one needs

rare lily Dec 22, 2020, 10:42 AM

Don't they need to have that jvm in the expansion side in order to achieve that?

With luck perms, say as user was on 3 different tracks, how would I only display their highest group on the highest track

#

Because when I do, %luckperms_primary_group_name%, I of course get the name, and not the prefix.

#

Is gthere a way to get the prefix?

vivid sparrow Dec 23, 2020, 10:16 AM

#

%luckperms_prefix%

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:24 AM

#

Heya, yes but if a user has several prefixes because they're in several groups, it'll just display them all?

meager nymph Dec 23, 2020, 10:24 AM

#

no

#

the highest one will be displayed

#

@pulsar berry

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:25 AM

Heya, it's displaying all 3 lol,

Yes,

did you even set a priority for your groups ?

This returns the highest I think

%luckperms_highest_group_by_weight%

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:27 AM

Watcha mean, each Luck Perm group has different weights,

meager nymph Dec 23, 2020, 10:27 AM

#

yea

Description: Returns the name of the players highest priority group.

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:27 AM

@twin crater I'll give it a go,

Alright

https://luckperms.net/wiki/Placeholders

Here's the wiki it has descriptions of every placeholder

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:28 AM

#

Bro, it's just displaying it as 'default', despite that not being the group with the highest weight-

#

Here's my editor,

#

Lmao, any idea why?

meager nymph Dec 23, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

no

#

it should work

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:30 AM

#

One mo, just checking that Luckperms is actually downloaded from papi,

#

Bro- when I run /papi ecloud download LuckPerms

#

It just says expansion not found.

#

Ah, likely because it's already downloaded.

#

Any idea why?

#

Bro, I just deleted luck perms expansion to reinstall it, and it still can't find it-

#

Is the ecloud down or something?

meager nymph Dec 23, 2020, 10:33 AM

#

no

pulsar berry Dec 23, 2020, 10:33 AM

#

Any idea why it wouldn't b downloading then? Lmao,

How do I use this plugin ?PlaceholderAPI Animations

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

civic hollow How do I use this plugin ?PlaceholderAPI Animations

Animations is not a plugin. Its an expansion. You need to download PlaceholderAPI, restart the server then go and execute these 2 commands: /papi ecloud download Animation /papi reload

#

in that order

#

then you can check the wiki here: https://github.com/Niall7459/KiteBoard-Documentation/wiki/Animations-and-Modifiers

#

here is an example tho: %animations_<pulse color=multi pause=1>TEXT</pulse>%

#

this will show TEXT and every frame

#

it will change the color

#

of the text

#

the full list of tags pulse is a tag and options color and pause are options is on the wiki

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

Will this expansion work with ChestCommands? And I still don't understand where to write "%animations_<pulse color=multi pause=1>TEXT</pulse>%"? In chat? In ChestCommands menu?

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

anywhere you want to use it

#

and it will work with CC only if it has a refresh option

#

so only if the menu itself refreshes as well. otherwise it won't work

#

but yeah if you want to use it in the menu then put it in the menu

#

and change the TEXT

#

to whatever text you want to display

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

I have typed in "/papi ecloud download Animation" and I get an error in console

Probably someone else has an idea but you'll have to wait a bit till someone that knows sees the message

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 4:31 PM

i don't think that anyone know what's the problem as this expansion is very old like 6 years

#

It's sad such as good expansion is not supported anymore:(

#

yeah I mean it got an update like 2 years ago or something

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 4:45 PM

I think it's something wrong with PlaceholderAPI because when i tried /papi reload i get that error again

do you have a chat plugin that supports papi? or chatinjector?

Have you tested the placeholder with /papi parse me <placeholder> to make sure it works?

/papi parse me <placeholder> works

I have installed ChestComands that supports PAPI and also the chat plugin and still get the "%animations_glow_Glowing Text Here!%" instead of glowing "text"

😢

#

has anyone test it ?

lucid olive Dec 23, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

Someone was able to access my testserver in some way, and performed this command: '/papi register adduser toast;password;password;adduser toast sudo;1;1;1;1;1;1;1;1;1;1;1;1;'

#

What is this for command and in what cases should this command work? They weren't able to do any harm, but it is at least very strange

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 7:23 PM

#

isn't there permission for that?

#

placeholderapi.register: true

#

it should only work if they have that permission

#

and that is to register an expansion jar I think

#

so it shouldn't cause anything

lucid olive Dec 23, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

Yes, but with this command they try to add a new user to the dedi with all permissions

#

And I think they hoped the server was running under root account

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

ugh

#

try the command yourself

#

you'll see it doesn't work

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

did you install any plugins from balckspigot.com?

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 7:25 PM

sometimes there are plugins that hack the server

so you just installed papi and nothing else ?

#

and it worked?

yeah

#

well I have it for a while now

#

its a live server

#

so more plugins

#

but it works

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

weird

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

maybe its server version

#

since I'm on 1.16.4

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

I will re-create the server if it won't work I won't disturb you anymore just won't use the expansion

#

Thanks for trying to solve this problem

#

😀

#

One more question : did you install any plugin for chat?

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 7:55 PM

DeluxeChat

#

I use for chat formatting

it doesn't work even with /papi parse?

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 7:55 PM

same thing works for me

but not for him

#

only difference I can find is plugins installed and server version

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 7:55 PM

can you send a startuplog

how so

"papi parse me %animations_<glow>GLOWING TEXT HERE</glow>%" only "G" changed the color and that's it

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

that makes sense

#

it won't animate on that return

#

only when it's repeatedly called, if you test it fast repeatedly you should see some changes

mint fable only when it's repeatedly called, if you test it fast repeatedly you should see ...

Yeah, i noticed that

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

okay so the placeholder works

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

But how to make animate on its own and all the time

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

so now you need to get it working in chestcommands and in chat, right?

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

?

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

mint fable so now you need to get it working in chestcommands and in chat, right?

yeah

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

Well that was one of my earlier questions: Does chestcommands support updating placeholders?

#

and for chat I've already asked: What chat plugin do you use? Have you tried installing chatinjector?

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:05 PM

mint fable Well that was one of my earlier questions: Does chestcommands support updating p...

I downloaded the Chestcommand GUI and that should support the PAPI

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

mint fable and for chat I've already asked: What chat plugin do you use? Have you tried ins...

I am going to install all those plugin again

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:05 PM

#

Does the placeholder show in the chestcommand gui at all?

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

mint fable Does the placeholder show in the chestcommand gui at all?

Do you mean if menu opens at all?

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

I mean, that wasn't really what I was asking. If your menu doesn't open I don't think it's the placeholder's fault

#

it would be incorrect configuring I would assume

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

mint fable I mean, that wasn't really what I was asking. If your menu doesn't open I don't ...

it's opening

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

okay, so does the placeholder work?

#

at all?

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

mint fable at all?

yes, it's working

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

so what is the issue

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

The main issue is solved

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

ah ok

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

How to make it animate all the time ?

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

Does chestcommands support updating placeholders?

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

%animations_<glow>GLOWING TEXT HERE</glow>% - "G" changes the letter color

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

that is what the question refers to

#

if chestcommands doesn't update placeholders every so often, it won't work

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

ChestCommands support api

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

mint fable if chestcommands doesn't update placeholders every so often, it won't work

What can I do about?

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

deluxemenus supports updating items, but the max is once every second

#

Ask the dev to add it I guess

#

🤷‍♂️

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

Thanks for your help

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

👍 gl

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

I will try deluxemenu

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

just beware it will look a bit weird...

#

since it only updates once a second

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 8:14 PM

#

mint fable so now you need to get it working in chestcommands and in chat, right?

it will never work in cat

#

lmao

#

becasue a message that you sent

#

doesn't refresh

#

at all

mint fable Dec 23, 2020, 8:14 PM

#

i know

civic hollow Dec 23, 2020, 8:40 PM

#

Is there any other ways to animate properly the text in menu [ChestCommand,DeluxeMenu] without Animation expansion ?

turbid tide Dec 23, 2020, 8:45 PM

#

not rly

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 11:11 AM

#

Im trying to make a rng placeholder that will give me a new number each day but im trying to figure out the best way to create the javascript placeholder. ```var min = 1;
var max = 25;

function randomInteger() {
if (args.length == 2) {
min = args[0];
max = args[1];
}

var random = Math.random() * (max - min);
random += min;

return Math.floor(random);
}

randomInteger();``` this looks like it will return a new number each time it is called. I saw this but am unsure if it will integrate properly https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4455282/call-a-javascript-function-at-a-specific-time-of-day Essentially im trying to generate a new number each 24 hours and set the placeholder to return that value so rng(1-50) day1=4 day2=33 day3=41 if that makes sense. Let me know if you have any ideas thanks 🙂

steep thorn Dec 24, 2020, 11:32 AM

#

@mortal wind I think you'll need parseInt in order to turn those args into ints

#

Based on the first google results, it seems quite difficult to actually 'seed' a JavaScript random generator

#

You could indeed use the info from that stackoverflow to get the current day as some kind of int

#

https://stackoverflow.com/a/23304189

#

This seems like a pretty clean solution for the seed thing

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

So for the actual placeholder itself it should be somthing like %javascript_rng500-1000% and it will give me the number, wouldnt require any sort of args as all of the information needed should already be in the script. Ill try to assemble something and see how it goes, thanks for the info

mint fable Dec 24, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

does the javascript handle the once per day thing?

#

or just the randomizer

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

im trying to get it to handle both so it will run the clock and each new day it will throw me out a new number from the min max values

mint fable Dec 24, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

ah ok

#

because I was gonna say there already was an rng expansion

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

Yeah i referenced the one from the wiki

warm topaz Dec 24, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

🙂

mint fable Dec 24, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

why didn't that work hmm

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

Now im just trying to figure out how to run the function at a specific time and save the value so its not throwing me a new random number every time its called, should work once i can test with the information robin gave me above

mint fable Dec 24, 2020, 5:26 PM

#

so

#

I would recommend saving the data

#

lemme throw some pseudocode

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

That probably would make more sense: Generate number each day -> save generated value -> placeholder returns stored value

mint fable Dec 24, 2020, 5:28 PM

#

var date = today
if(Data.exists(date+".rng")){
  return Data.get(date+".rng";
}else{
  var rng = new random;
  Data.set(date+".rng", rng);
  return rng;
}```

#

that's half java half javascript

#

but also pseudocode

#

https://github.com/PlaceholderAPI/Javascript-Expansion/wiki/Advanced-Scripts#storing-data

mortal wind Dec 24, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

Gotcha then after that i would need to run Data.getData() when the placeholder is called to return that set data?

turbid tide Dec 24, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

ye

mint fable Dec 24, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

well that was the first part

warm topaz Dec 24, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

nashorn engine was removed in java 15 i think

turbid tide Dec 24, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

not yet

#

thien is working on implementing a new engine

#

tho

#

but I can't guarantee its coming any time soon

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 12:21 AM

#

I got like at least 7 features on pending right now

#

So yeah, still wip

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:32 AM

#

Latest openjdk has removed nashorn as well

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

marble tiger Yeah, thats exactly what I was using. Any alternatives?

yo I'm sorry for the 4 days old reply but I just found out that the expansion actually works. A lot of people reported it not working and I never actually got to fully test it.

#

%localtime_timezone_Europe/Bucharest% if you want a GMT+2 TimeZone

scarlet valve Dec 25, 2020, 12:07 PM

#

Hi is their an placeholder that gives you your cps

#

?

#

Pls @ me if yu know

wet basinBOT Dec 25, 2020, 12:09 PM

#

@brisk coral Unknown expansion.

brisk coral Dec 25, 2020, 12:09 PM

#

@rare lily Is your cps expansion public

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 12:19 PM

#

Not "cps" to be fair

#

It's just speed of stuffs per sec

#

But it's public

scarlet valve Dec 25, 2020, 12:20 PM

#

I mean click per second

#

Not tps

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 12:20 PM

#

Yeah my expansion doesn't have that

scarlet valve Dec 25, 2020, 12:20 PM

#

Do u know any?

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 12:21 PM

#

There is not so far

#

But i will think about it one day

scarlet valve Dec 25, 2020, 12:21 PM

#

Ok

#

Ty

brisk coral Dec 25, 2020, 12:22 PM

#

Didn't you showcase cps once?

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 12:23 PM

#

It used to be, but I later realized how bad the cps goes in term of spigot listener management

#

I only detected it the most with right click thus far

brisk coral Dec 25, 2020, 12:29 PM

#

did you use events, or packets

#

Since it'd probably be more concise with packets

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 12:31 PM

#

I think it's also a fine idea with packet

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 1:47 PM

#

But it's very cheesy

sturdy sluice Dec 25, 2020, 2:39 PM

#

would this work as a javascript placeholder? am trying to make a placeholder that returns the amount of permission someone has from a list

var player = BukkitPlayer;

function permissionSum() {
  if (args.length > 0) {
    var sum = 0;
    args.forEach(permission => {
      if (player.hasPermission(permission)) sum++;
    })
    return sum;
  }
  return 0;
}

permissionSum();

// %javascript_permissions_permission1,permission2,permission3%

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

yeah it should work.

#

unless the forEach method is not available in the nashorn engine

brisk coral Dec 25, 2020, 2:41 PM

#

It won't work tho, unless js utilizes foreach differently

sturdy sluice Dec 25, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

or is there smth existing for this already

brisk coral Dec 25, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

forEach requires all variables to be effectively final

#

Which your sum is not

#

Make a normal for loop

marble tiger Dec 25, 2020, 2:55 PM

#

@turbid tide ended up just using %time% with offset of 2 from the TAB plugin

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 2:56 PM

#

ah ok.

#

but just for future reference it works

sturdy sluice Dec 25, 2020, 3:18 PM

#

hmm it returns an empty string now

var player = BukkitPlayer;

function permissionSum() {
  if (args.length > 0) {
    var sum = 0;
    for(i = 0, len = args.length; i < len; i++) {
      if (player.hasPermission(arg[i])) sum++;
    }
    return sum;
  }
  return 0;
}

permissionSum();

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:21 PM

#

ugh

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

can you store BukkitPlayer to a variable and use it that way? Or do you need to use BukkitPlayer.hasPermission

sturdy sluice Dec 25, 2020, 3:24 PM

#

wiki said to do it like this, but ill try that too (https://bit.ly/2WJ3WsX)

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

it probably works then

#

how are you using it? (the placeholder)

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

oh fuck I said ugh and forgot to ask xD

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:27 PM

#

Just a head warning in this 1.7 JSE if you all could agree or not: I will significantly get rid of bare placeholders in the script

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:27 PM

#

?

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:27 PM

#

what? xD

#

what are bare placeholders?

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:27 PM

#

this

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

Which means you must use this in order to parse placeholder: var a = parse("%player_name%")

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

oh no

#

please don't

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

don't do that please

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

add it as option

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

it will break many many many scripts

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

but

#

I have over 100 scripts

#

I ain't going to fix all of them

#

some even have like over 10+ options

#

as a return

#

jesus no

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

and we will get many people showing up here asking about them

#

ye sounds like hell ngl

#

❤️

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

think that answers it thien :))

#

add it as an option maybe but don't remove the bare placeholders option

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

Well, there is a reason though: That sufficiently is more convenient than PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders()

#

But if that's what yall want then fine thonking

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

I like the parse thing

#

but we're saying don't remove this

var test = "%player_name%";```

#

bad example, but still an example

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

Yeah ik that

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:31 PM

#

I mean thien just add it as an option

#

that's fine

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:31 PM

#

parse is easier to type than PlaceholderAPI.static.setPlaceholders fr

#

I think aboody added parsePlaceholders in a test version so that could work

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

also aboo said

#

we should use parseBracketPlaceholders

mint fable Dec 25, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

tru

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

so make sure you include bracket placeholders in parse()

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

👍

#

Already planned

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

ok good. also you said you're adding the debug mode setting right? xD

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:33 PM

#

Sure... thonk

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:33 PM

#

the one that allows me to disable the "engine not found. defaulting to global` or whatever

#

lmao

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:35 PM

#

Erm...

#

You still have to change stuffs from nashorn to graal.js lmao

#

100 lines to work on

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 3:54 PM

#

I mean, your engine specification in config

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 3:55 PM

#

well

#

I didn't specify

#

it for all those 100 placeholders xD

#

so I don't need to change anything

rare lily Dec 25, 2020, 4:05 PM

#

Oh

onyx mauve Dec 25, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

Hi! I am using this placeholder: %statistic_minutes_played% from the statistic placeholder. And for some reason i get a error in the console when i start my server or reload the plugin. The thing is that the placeholder still works.
Here is the error: https://paste.gg/p/anonymous/e8356a47542545978d4a23c5847d136a
The server is running 1.12.2

turbid tide Dec 25, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

ugh from that paste it doesn't look like a Statistic expansion error. And also if I get that correctly it just can't get info about the expansion like expansion author, version etc. from the ecloud so I think if you will try to do /papi ecloud info EXPANSION-NAME

#

it will error out

#

so yeah shouldn't affect the placeholders themselves

#

dk why it errors tho
