[undone kernel]

so I have this code

    public static ItemStack sword;

    public static void init() {
        ultimateSword();
    }

    public static void ultimateSword() {
        ItemStack ultimateSword = new ItemStack(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD, 1);
        ItemMeta meta = ultimateSword.getItemMeta();
        meta.setDisplayName("§4§kscary§1Ultimate Sword§4§kscary");
        meta.addEnchant(Enchantment.DAMAGE_ALL, 10, false);
        meta.addEnchant(Enchantment.KNOCKBACK, 10, false);
        meta.addEnchant(Enchantment.FIRE_ASPECT, 10, false);
        meta.addEnchant(Enchantment.DURABILITY, 10, false);
        ultimateSword.setItemMeta(meta);
        sword = ultimateSword;
    }```
but when I get the item there are no enchants

[dusk flicker]

that code scares me

[undone kernel]

i've done it with true but it still dosen't work

[undone axle]

"Does not working" is a useless statement. Please describe what exactly is not working, what you expect it to do, and what actually happens. If you get any console errors, also ?paste the entire stacktrace.

[undone kernel]

no console errors

it just don't work

apply all your enchantments by enchatment names from a String list

dont cast sender to player

someone told me its not good

when I run /craftycore ingame it is supposed to say waatever is above, but it says /craftycore instead of whatever its supposed to say

[round finch]

plugin version?

[solid skiff]

no when I run the command it says craftycore, also literatly none of my commands are working, they are not red in the tab complete and I registered them but it says unknown command

Like memory?

[real palm]

I guess I can gift that question to the trash can, but I only see examples for Plugin Messaging Channels BungeeCord -> Spigot but none in vice-versa.
Is it possible to send a plugin message to BungeeCord so my Discord Bot running on it can execute its job?

In my example -> Player has done an advancement -> send plugin message to bungeecord which process it and send a message to the channel "Player achieved advancement xyz".

[round finch]

i were thinking of arraylist

i know static methods

lol

pass Main class to Math Class
you mean like that?

hmm nice

but what about static lists and memory?

[real palm]

Noone knows eventually an answer to my question?

theyre just regular channels

im trying to make a sethome system, is there a way to create a file in /homes directory with their uuid storing their info and tping to it when they run /home (home)

[round finch]

sql

[solid skiff]

absolutly not

[round finch]

no my reaction to what i'm doing

[solid skiff]

i need folder, wouldnt that be easiest to get values

[solid skiff]

what are you doing

[round finch]

sql

trying to figure it out thb

[solid skiff]

oh thats why i hate sql

[round finch]

all that string work

maybe i should have used api

[solid skiff]

that or I can make a chonky config

do yk how to generate a file and get values from it

beacuse all ik is getConfig

idk how to specify data.yml or smth

[sullen marlin]

?config

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

[solid skiff]

ty

[solid skiff]

would this generate a new file

FileConfiguration data = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(new File(getDataFolder(), "data.yml"));

[sullen marlin]

yes

[solid skiff]

ok and then it will stay and i can generate and pull values like normal?

[round finch]

short!

[sullen marlin]

yes

[solid skiff]

ok

[quaint mantle]

if(cur == Material.DIRT) return;
if(cur == Material.GOLD_BLOCK) return;

No alternative :/

?

[sullen marlin]

or? switch?

[round finch]

yo md_5 any sql tutorials?

[sullen marlin]

?sql

?mysql

idk

Nooo switches on Material Remember a couple months ago!?

int x = getConfig().getDouble("<uuid>.x");
int y = getConfig().getDouble("<uuid>.y");
int z = getConfig().getDouble("<uuid>.z");
World w = plugin.getServer().getWorld(getConfig().getString("<uuid>.world"));
Location home= new home(w,x,y,z);

if I were to do something like this, would there be a way to set a string before <uuid> to the home name (/home <name>) so the string will save as <home><uuid><x>

[sullen marlin]

uuid + ".x"

also you can use getLocation to save/get location directly

part of config class

[solid skiff]

right, but i need this to save for one to data.yml and before the <uuid> to be the home value, because I want them to be able to set more than 1 home

[quaint mantle]

if(cur.getType() == Material.GOLD_BLOCK) return;

nice

[round finch]

if Material name contains in list?

[quaint mantle]

It won't happen

better then writing

[glossy venture]

can i create a world asynchronously using WorldCreator?

because when i try to do it sync it almost crashes the server

[river oracle]

no

You could always write an entirely new world creation system though

[glossy venture]

is getResource() broken or something

[opal juniper]

dont think so

[opal juniper]

no lol

why?

[glossy venture]

ive tried with plugin.getClass().getResourceAsStream(...) too

but thats probably due to class loading with bukkit

[opal juniper]

does it need to be relative

i forget

[glossy venture]

relative?

[opal juniper]

./

[glossy venture]

you mean no / at the start

no thats for file system right

this is in the jar

[opal juniper]

[glossy venture]

im used to it needing a / at the start

thats required with getResourceAsStream i think

officially day 2 of coding this shit

oh removing the / worked lol

Hey guys, Is there a packet sent when player leave house client side? Cause there is bug when PlayerMoveEvent is cancelled when player is on a horse or so, and it kick the player when you cancel the event only on client side

[quaint mantle]

PLAYER_HEAD don't exist in java 8

[echo copper]

I'm getting an error trying to use maven to shade external libraries into my plugin. For some reason, the spigot server doesnt load resources from the plugin jar (the third party libraries load data from resources in the plugins jar, but spigot looks for it in the server.jar so returns a "not found exception")

I can remedy it by renaming my plugin file to plugin.zip, extracting the resources and all the library files that is packaged into it from the maven shade and putting them into server.jar but that seems more like a hack than a solution

[quaint oriole]

[remote swallow]

remove the Player p = .. and add change the instanceof Player to instanceof Player player now you can use the player var if its a player

might fix one

oh im stupid

is there a way to add all commands into plugin.yml? like isnt it /<command>

[remote swallow]

commands:
  cmd1:
  cmd2:

[remote swallow]

you can add that for usage iirc

[solid skiff]

in the plugin yml? I want them all imputed into plugin.yml

[remote swallow]

you have to do them all manually

[solid skiff]

isnt there something like /<command>

[river oracle]

why do people even use the plugin.yml for commands its so annoying

[remote swallow]

like i say about 5 messages ago, you can put that in the usage but you cannot put the commands in plugin.yml automatically

[river oracle]

I gotch you bro gimme a second to grab some code

don't bother with the plugin.yml

[remote swallow]

do you just add the commands to the command map

[river oracle]

yea

its easy as fuck and so much less of a hastle

[undone axle]

https://paste.md-5.net/

[river oracle]

https://paste.md-5.net/vayorecaci.cs There might be a few discrpencies I just created a static final version from my command api

but this is a gist and its much easier you just need to extend the BukkitCommand class

usually I just make some simple functions on top of it to make it nice and easy

[river oracle]

^ just incase your curious as wel

[solid skiff]

Where would I put this

[river oracle]

just put it in a Utility class if you have one otherwise main class works fine

than you use that to register your command make sure you don't do anything with commands in the plugin.yml

[quaint mantle]

https://paste.md-5.net/axuxikuxuz.java sry but...

[solid skiff]

so really any class works?

or should I make a util class

[river oracle]

I have a full utility class I'll show you its really poorly done so I reccomend making something yourself

[solid skiff]

but that code is good on a standalone?

[river oracle]

yea, you still would need to extend the BukkitCommand class and make something yourself for that though

atleast iirc its been a while since I've used anything, but my own

[solid skiff]

never done that before lol

[river oracle]

https://paste.md-5.net/ikehowusug.java

this is my old one

[solid skiff]

anyway one question, I have people type in a home name for /sethome, but I need to store their 1) home name in a seperate homes.yml file and then I need to 2) check if it exists to tp the player to the home

[quaint mantle]

https://paste.md-5.net/axuxikuxuz.java can i get some help ?

[river oracle]

no

I'm not going to help you

first off explain your problem then someone might want to help you

your just posting code who tf knows whats wrong

[tall dragon]

i don't think someone here is going to make the full plugin for you.

[solid skiff]

not asking that

[river oracle]

seems pretty straightforward to me just get from the config FileConfiguration is stored all in memory

just do getStringList or whatever than teleport them

[solid skiff]

only problem is how would I test if it exists so i can return an error message

[river oracle]

its null if it doesn't exist

[solid skiff]

also idk if your thing is going to work with my plugin because it has 30 errors lol

[solid skiff]

so detect if it is null then return the error

[river oracle]

Well if you just copy paste it yea lol you need to format it to your uses

I just gave you an outline of what needs to be done

the rest is up to you

[orchid gazelle]

I would recommend learning java before writing minecraft plugins.

[river oracle]

I think its fine if your able to figure shit out on your own if you need pushes in the right direction, incbom is clearly not completely lost

[solid skiff]

^ ik a bit

[orchid gazelle]

Yeah but it is kind of essential to have some knowledge about speficic things like saving data

[river oracle]

I've never had a large java project outside of Spigot and never independently learned java than spi got

I learned java alongside spigot, while I don't necessarily reccomend this its something to keep yourself interested

[orchid gazelle]

It will take a lot more time

[solid skiff]

... ik how to save data to the config file, its the saving and writing new data to other files im a bit confused of as it is a whole different thing

[river oracle]

who cares 🤷🏽‍♂️

[river oracle]

set is able to write all data you need

FileConfiguration#set

than you need to save

[orchid gazelle]

The 100 people more you gotta ask for very simple help?

[solid skiff]

ik

[river oracle]

if you don't save the data stays only in memory

[tall dragon]

yaml for data storage

[river oracle]

Or you learn how to use google lol

I learned google

[orchid gazelle]

That does not work for most people

[solid skiff]

im not aobut to intergate sql into my plugin yet

[orchid gazelle]

If you know how to google you are gucci with simple plugin dev

[orchid gazelle]

use json then lol

[tall dragon]

could use some good ol json

[solid skiff]

debateable, spigot and bukkit forums and stackoverflow

[quaint mantle]

https://paste.md-5.net/axuxikuxuz.java

hi idk but i can't set my skullOwner

[solid skiff]

ill stick with yml, not much of a difference

[orchid gazelle]

Gson is integrated in the devenv of bukkit, I love using that

[solid skiff]

other than formating and some other junk idc about

[tall dragon]

exactly. quick and easy

[orchid gazelle]

That is not a good mind

[remote swallow]

why are you setting the meta twice

[river oracle]

again your asking a quesiton, yet lack detail error? why can't you set it?

[orchid gazelle]

Sticking to things and not caring is very bad

[river oracle]

whats happening versus whats intended

[orchid gazelle]

Sooner or later, you will see why

[river oracle]

I stuck to yml for my first few months 🤷🏽‍♂️ its useful as hell for getting the ropes

[buoyant violet]

guys can i use == as an equal?

[quaint mantle]

i created a GUI and i hant a Skull in this GUI and set the skull owner to the player who sand the cmd

[tall dragon]

in some cases

[buoyant violet]

or i need to put equal()

[river oracle]

use google

• https://www.learnjavaonline.org/
• https://programmingbydoing.com/
• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/index.html

The last one is the only official one, however some of those concepts assume that you already know a bit about programming.

[river oracle]

?google

[undone axle]

Google your question before asking it:
https://www.google.com/

[buoyant violet]

ye i am just learning

i am doing if statements

[river oracle]

there are a trillion stack overflow threads explaining that

[buoyant violet]

so

[orchid gazelle]

Uhm bro just because you started with some things does not mean it is good

[tall dragon]

== is used to compare class instances bassically

like it is exactly the same instance of the class

[solid skiff]

you can atleast do something

[river oracle]

you migrate to better data storage structures later it works

[solid skiff]

^^

[buoyant violet]

if (q1 == "animal" && q2 == "no")

can i do that?

[orchid gazelle]

It works but is 10x worse and unefficient

[tall dragon]

not a good idea on strings

use #equals on Strings

[buoyant violet]

ok

ty

[orchid gazelle]

Well you can but it is better to not do that

[buoyant violet]

then how can i modify it

[tall dragon]

== is usefull to compare enums mostly

and numbers

[river oracle]

lol efficency doesn't matter if your doing something as a hobby

its a hobby

its about having fun and staying interested

[buoyant violet]

i need to do this?
if (q1 #equals "animal" && q2 #equals "no")

[river oracle]

as long as you don't go out selling your shitty code

[buoyant violet]

i want to sell code

[tall dragon]

if(q1.equals("animal"))

[buoyant violet]

ty

ty

[orchid gazelle]

If it should be case independent, use equalsIgnoreCase

[buoyant violet]

if (q1.equals("animal") && q2.equals("no"))

its right?

[tall dragon]

should work

[orchid gazelle]

Yeah if it is fun for you doing bad things

[buoyant violet]

ok ok ty epic

[solid skiff]

above that:

public File folder = plugin.getDataFolder();
    public File file = new File("homes.yml");
    public static YamlConfiguration homes = new YamlConfiguration();

onEnable():```java
if(!folder.exists()) {
folder.mkdir();
}

    if(!file.exists()) {
        file.mkdir
    }
    homes.load(file);

}```

is this a way to create a new file?

[river oracle]

yea thats prey much it

accept

[tall dragon]

that file wont be in the plugin folder 😄

[river oracle]

you'd create your homes file like
File file = new File(folder, "homes.yml");
^ this ensures its in the plugins folder

first argument is the folder

[solid skiff]

also accept lots of errors

[orchid gazelle]

folder +

not comma

[river oracle]

no

its folder,

its an argument in File's Constructor

[orchid gazelle]

Both works but it looks ugly imo lol

[solid skiff]

public File folder = plugin.getDataFolder(); "could not resolve symbol plugin"

[river oracle]

https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/io/File.html here are the java docs for File

are you in your main class?

[orchid gazelle]

Now this hurts

[solid skiff]

yes

[river oracle]

https://www.javatpoint.com/inheritance-in-java

should read this, but your main class is plugin

[vital yacht]

You can do Plugin#getDataFolder.toPath().resolve(fileName);

[tall dragon]

yea path api is very nice

[river oracle]

facts

[tall dragon]

personally do it like this ussually

    public static void createFileIfNotExists(Path path) throws IOException {
        if (!Files.exists(path)) {
            if (!Files.exists(path.getParent())) {
                Files.createDirectory(path.getParent());
            }
            Files.createFile(path);
        }
    }

[river oracle]

even though I barely use it lmao

[solid skiff]

doesnt explain why plugin is an error

[orchid gazelle]

Ofc it does

[solid skiff]

or anything of the sort with that

[river oracle]

plugin isn't a variable defined

[solid skiff]

but im in main class

[buoyant violet]

@tall dragon my code works ty again

[orchid gazelle]

Yes but you have not defined the plugin as a variable

[tall dragon]

[orchid gazelle]

So you cannot use a variable called plugin if you have not defined it

[vital yacht]

If you’re in your main class you have to use this, which would be the plugin variable you are trying to use basically

[river oracle]

the object required is JavaPlugin your main class extends JavaPlugin the article sent explains what that means in particular

not with spigot, but in general java terms which can then be applied

[solid skiff]

Plugin plugin = this; so that

[river oracle]

you don't need to define it because this is a JavaPlugin or Plugin

[vital yacht]

You don’t need to declare a plugin variable, just use this directly while in your JavaPlugin class

[orchid gazelle]

Should define the var for future uses tho

[vital yacht]

Not really

[solid skiff]

k, that also works to?

[vital yacht]

Yes

[orchid gazelle]

It is very common to get used, so that should be done

[solid skiff]

mkdir also cannot be defined

if(!file.exists()) {
file.mkdir
}

[vital yacht]

Do you mean as a static variable? I just use DI or JavaPlugin#getPlugin

[orchid gazelle]

file.mkdir()

[vital yacht]

You’re attempting to call a method, all methods have to have ()

[solid skiff]

k

[orchid gazelle]

Or is it?

ah it is file

[solid skiff]

try {
homes.load(file);
} catch (IOException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
} catch (InvalidConfigurationException e) {
throw new RuntimeException(e);
}

}

would this be loading it?

[ivory sleet]

I mean File::mkdir creates the file as a directory

[solid skiff]

because it was an error plainlybut adding that seems to fix it

[ivory sleet]

you probably want to do it on the parent file if its a config file (which is presumably a directory)?

[vital yacht]

Conclure you’re upside down

[ivory sleet]

am I?

oh yea

[orchid gazelle]

Nobody knows, find it out yourself

[vital yacht]

You in Australia?

[ivory sleet]

no just up late

[solid skiff]

how would i prevent the error message saying i need a class or an interface at the end

[ivory sleet]

Incbom, how does your current code look like?

[glad prawn]

He always ask 💀

[solid skiff]

?paste

[undone axle]

[glad prawn]

Not u

[solid skiff]

https://paste.md-5.net/oxekihesay.cpp

also this is probally not the discord to ask but my sentry.io intergation is not working, the import is wrong

[ivory sleet]

file.mkdir();

Instead of this, you probably want to call file.createNewFile();

[tall dragon]

probably? 😄

[ivory sleet]

since the former creates a directory/folder and not a file with the given file name

[orchid gazelle]

(mkdir written out means: make directory)

Damn I would love to continue coding rn but im sick as shit lol

[quaint mantle]

Hi i try to dev a GUI with a Head in the GUI and the Plugins crash when a try it https://paste.md-5.net/atoramufex.java

[solid skiff]

so change

        if(!file.exists()) {
            file.mkdir();
        }

to

        if(!file.exists()) {
            file.createNewFile();
        }```

[ivory sleet]

To begin with, yes (:

[vital yacht]

You can’t cast ItemMeta to SkullMeta unless the ItemStack is a skull

[ivory sleet]

^ there’s no notion of a skull owner regarding glass pane items

[solid skiff]

yk why it is asking me to make a class or an interface at the bottom of the code?

[ivory sleet]

Can you send a picture of it?

[quaint mantle]

i don't changed STAINED_GLASS_PANE to SKULL ........

3h for this

[vital yacht]

It looks like you may have an extra bracket on the bottom

[ivory sleet]

🥲

[solid skiff]

still looks as thouhg it wants me to make a class or an interfase

or not

i love intellij idea's visual stuff

[solid skiff]

how would i send information to the newly created file (homes.yml)

[quaint mantle]

bruh my skull is called "Your head'sCraftPlayer{name=Appolon_}

with no texture .

[vital yacht]

Use Player#getName

[vital yacht]

This just calls toString on the Player object if you pass the object in the set name method

[quaint mantle]

thx now i have a good name but not a good texture xD

HeadGMS.setOwner("Appolon_"); just don't work :/

[remote swallow]

skullmeta.setOwner

[quaint mantle]

don't work :/

[remote swallow]

send the code

?paste

don't work :/

however thing is, you need to maintain a reference to it otherwise you will get the wrong reference to such and encounter NPE's

By dividing by 1000

uh divide what exactly ;- ;

[tulip nimbus]

Whatever quantity is in milliseconds

10000 - (System.currentTimeMillis() - cooldown.get(p.getUniqueId()))

Presumably

[undone kernel]

alr technically it's counting in seconds but it's starting from 10000 to 9990

is the nms source code good, like how well is minecraft written

[undone kernel]

tf do you mean by that

exactly what i said

Idk dictate that yourself decompile the server

No ones stopping you

If you feel mojangs code is so bad you'd be unwilling to use it there are an array of other projects trying to make minecraft servers better performance

[winged anvil]

who said it was bad

i asked if it was written well

looking for others opinions

[river oracle]

Good enough

[winged anvil]

ok

i appreciate you sharing

[vocal cloud]

Define well written? Optimized? I mean it's seasoned java engineers so I imagine it's okay. Plenty of community optimizations make it seem like there are areas to work on.

Guys, is there a way to cancel PlayerMoveEvent without it kicking the player from a vehicle (Client Side)?

check if they're on a vehicle?

I do

There is a problem with that

Because I want to cancel the event but they just get kicked (client side) from the vehicle

Why not just freeze the entity they're riding in place?

Hello! I'm new in java, I'm following a tutorial on youtube about passing the plugin instance to another class. I made a getter to access it from my other classes (https://prnt.sc/SuIayrxwQGla) but It's not working for some reason (https://prnt.sc/jefZbNATv5Sx), I also searched google but didnt found anything I was looking for.

[flint pine]

I can try that

[vocal cloud]

Show your package structure.

[quaint mantle]

https://prnt.sc/Xbd-mF3HpArQ

[vocal cloud]

Try declaring a variable and assigning it that value.

[quaint mantle]

In config manager?

[vocal cloud]

I'm pretty sure the error is because you're calling a method in your class file which you cannot do

[quaint mantle]

ah yes, I was following a tutorial tho

[vocal cloud]

A YT tutorial?

[quaint mantle]

yeah, about passing the plugin instance

[vocal cloud]

that's your problem

No I was asking because theres a certain rules in some server xD thats why

[vocal cloud]

Holy crap a 9m video for a 2m concept

[quaint mantle]

I'm actually a js developer so I get confused when someone says Variables lol

and I'm very new to java still learning

[vocal cloud]

Sadly you had to learn from Kody

[quaint mantle]

No other series exists

Btw since you saw it, I did the same thing as he did with static getter method

[vocal cloud]

Yes, but you're using it wrongly. Unlike JS you can't just call a method within a class unless you're inside a function or assigning it to a variable.
There is a way around this but you should never be using it.

[quaint mantle]

ah.. yeah thats confusing XD

[vocal cloud]

It'll take some getting used to.

Careful with Kody tutorials. I've heard a lot of bad practice exists within them.

[chrome beacon]

Spigot youtube videos always have bad practices

[quaint mantle]

Its not just kody, every YouTube tutorial shows you the easy way, the challenge is when you try to apply it to your own project

But I have no idea where I can get a headstart so I'm just watching the topics I'm confused about. I just download public plugins and read their decompiled code

[vocal cloud]

Jumping headfirst into plugin development is generally rough because the tutorials don't teach you how to apply your learning they show you a very linear example.

[quaint mantle]

yeah

so any suggestion about how can I pass the instance so I can use it in my other classes? Just tell me the way I can do it, You dont need to spoonfeed me XD

figuring it out myself would be best because I'll learn it in a way

10$ I believe

[quaint mantle]

uh okay, I don't really need it. Its just I changed my ign thats why

[vocal cloud]

The biggest problem I have with Kody is so many of his videos are things you should know how to do without his help. He never teaches how to learn by yourself just looking at the titles. Maybe he does but it doesn't seem like it from his titles

[chrome beacon]

Yeah many videos are just spoon feeding code

[quaint mantle]

Well it's not just him. I had to learn js from a paid course to understand it

I'm not a pro but I'm decent

[vocal cloud]

Yeah, Kody isn't teaching java from what I've watched. It's a lot of follow along stuff but not teaching what you need to survive

[quaint mantle]

yeah thats true

[chrome beacon]

You don't have to pay there are plenty of free guides

[quaint mantle]

I'm a guy who needs pressure

In the course we had given assignments every few days

[vocal cloud]

I learned java from scratch by trying to build applications I did in other languages. Same way I've been learning Rust

Lots of text tutorials

[quaint mantle]

ah, I was basically a web developer

Worked with React

nope, I parse the material at the end of the evaluation

and this is irrelevant to the error anyway

why is it not excluding the fastutil

ive tried with the dependency too

instead of the package

doesnt the exclude need to be on the real dependency

didnt work either

oh wait maybe i need to do /**

YES

it worked

now my jar isnt 25 fucking megabytes anymore lmao

thats 33 kb/s

it builds so much faster as well

[solid skiff]

I read that but there is nothing specifying what config file

[remote swallow]

im gonna say "custom.yml" to "homes.yml"

would make it read homes.yml

[solid skiff]

Ok Ty

[tardy delta]

why not YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(customConfigFile)

[round finch]

broadcast empty line multiple times...

[tardy delta]

best fix

[wet breach]

not sure on what the difference would be except maybe preference

well, in that case they are free to use what they deem fitting and not what you prefer o.O

[tardy delta]

conclure does :: too

and ye its just preference

need a new fancy color to display instead of this

[round finch]

you could use packet to change title, making it blink different colors

[tardy delta]

just looking for a static hex color ig

[round finch]

color picker

[remote swallow]

colour picker is okay

[round finch]

i have a program on my pc where i can pick any color on my screen

[tardy delta]

hmm i forgot but how can i cancel clicks which move an item from the player inv to the top inv?

got this rn

ig put the event.setCancelled in front of the guiitem

[round finch]

basic

literally just a doc search

😆

you welcome

bruh im trying everything to disable those useless mongodb logs but nothing seems to be working

Level.OFF doesnt work either

[round finch]

how can i use sql in a simple way?
i only know java

[opal juniper]

its super simple

[round finch]

i'm suffering

[late sonnet]

you sure the loggers are in this class?

[opal juniper]

Its a declarative language, what are you trying to do?

[round finch]

i have been studying a bit of sql

but still confused

[opal juniper]

on which bit

[tardy delta]

wdym? whether those are the correct logger? idk i found those answers on stackoverflow

[opal juniper]

inserting? Deleting?

Reading?

[late sonnet]

you try this?

[tardy delta]

lmfao

[opal juniper]

try SEVERE

yeah ahhaha

just use sqlite 😎

[tardy delta]

aaaa

sqlite doesnt have native uuid support :(

[opal juniper]

so? just do UUID#toString lul

[tardy delta]

nah BLOB

and some bytebuffer magic

[late sonnet]

and postgress (?

[tardy delta]

only used postgres for college

dunno why we are using it anyways

[round finch]

viewing it agein! thanks :))

i gotta figure out that table stuff

[late sonnet]

XD i use for a BOT.. not very problems with this..
but require a little "magic" for some types

[tardy delta]

PGobject

[late sonnet]

yeah... its very old but was the only form to handle correctly the UUID to a table with UUID

in this time.. i dont check again.. but works then..

[civic wind]

Anyone have any idea why it's not letting me open other gui on click?

[tardy delta]

dont you have to close the current one first?

or delay it by one tick?

[civic wind]

Already tried that

[kind hatch]

No, you can open inventories while in another inventory, Even though the docs say it's not recommend, it will work just fine.

[civic wind]

So why isn't it working?

It's blagging my head

[kind hatch]

In your config, does that path have a color coded string?

[tardy delta]

see if the code is ran

probably dont compare inventories by name too

[kind hatch]

If so, you need to translate the color codes.

[tardy delta]

and itemmeta strings

[civic wind]

Yes but i have translated

[civic wind]

You're right but it still should work

[kind hatch]

For testing purposes yes, it will work.

However, you should consider a better approach before you publish it.

You should put some debug messages in your code to see if your if statements are even being reached.

[civic wind]

I am trying debugs now

Ah yeah gets stuck at t3

Is there anything wrong with the if statement to get the config?

[tardy delta]

ChatColor.stripColor is a thing too

[kind hatch]

Your path is wrong. You need to have a path of ArmorSets.inventory.items.<ITEM NUMBER>.name

[civic wind]

ahh kk

[jovial grotto]

Hey so I am trying to make https://github.com/Chopkeys/FreezeGUI compatible with 1.16.5 onwards (As I originally made it in 1.16.5), I have looked up a bunch of stuff but nothing is clear and concise and makes sense. Is there any pages anyone knows of or any tutorials that will make more sense?

[kind hatch]

As for improving your code. I'd recommend two things.
1st: Switching your item name checks to PDC checks.
The PDC was introduced in 1.14. It gives you unparalleled flexibility with your GUIs. You don't have to check for slot numbers, you don't have to worry about outdated tags, you don't have to rely on item names, it's all treated as nbt data. You'll be able to put the items anywhere in the GUI and have the click events work the same regardless of slot number. It's a worthwhile upgrade.

2nd: Comparing inventory instances instead of inventory names.
This is to prevent people from renaming items with color codes and getting access to your inventories. Plenty of exploits exist rely on developers to compare names instead of instances.

[robust sinew]

if I put a block on a players head with curse of binding, they'll still be able to take it off right? as in the curse won't do anything?

how would I make the player unable to remove the block from their head?

just cancel the event when they take it off?

[kind hatch]

Well it looks like you are using methods from the API so it should be forwards compatible. Unless minecraft has another major update that breaks the api, like the 1.12 to 1.13 transition did, then you'll be fine for the most part.

The only time your plugin would become incompatible with other versions is if you are using version specific code. Otherwise known as NMS.

[jovial grotto]

Hmmm ok, so I tried running it on a 1.17 server and the commands didn't come up, any ideas?

[late sonnet]

the name can be a issue.. maybe can be better set an internal id and check this.. (like using PersistentDataContainer from itemmeta)

[river oracle]

any errors? did you register it in the plugin.yml? did you set the executor in your main class?

[kind hatch]

Hmm, I'm not sure off the top of my head because your code looks fine.

[jovial grotto]

I think it may have said something about the YML not being in the .jar

[kind hatch]

Well that would def be a problem. lol

[river oracle]

yea that'd be it

make sure its in there

[jovial grotto]

lmao

[kind hatch]

What are you using to compile? Maven I presume?

[river oracle]

       <resources>
            <resource>
                <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
                <filtering>true</filtering>
            </resource>
        </resources>

he has the resources folder, however just make sure your compiling with maven

not your IDE as it ignores maven completely

[jovial grotto]

I may have moved around the yml on accident

let me check

[civic wind]

Yeah i will eventually

How to add enchants to config for items in gui anyone?

[jovial grotto]

Now my file isn't compiling :/

Lmaoo

[river oracle]

error?

?paste

[undone axle]

https://paste.md-5.net/

[jovial grotto]

Am I missing something it was just working

[river oracle]

gross intellij. Anyways it looks fine

[jovial grotto]

https://paste.md-5.net/ifazagewow.rb

[quiet ice]

what is the error?

[jovial grotto]

It is the exact same from the GH

[kind hatch]

How are you trying to run the maven commands?

[jovial grotto]

Command line?

Not sure what you mean

[quiet ice]

Yeah, you must use mvn package/mvn install

Only using mvn does not suffice

[late sonnet]

what are you duing doing for compile?

[kind hatch]

You should be using the panel on the right side of the IDE.

[quiet ice]

Unless you specify a default goal, but I do not know how it works

[kind hatch]

default goals are pretty easy

[jovial grotto]

Oh thanks, which one should I do?

[quiet ice]

Yeah, but I don't think that the default goals are actually executed by default

[kind hatch]

Slap it at the top of your build, then press the green button.

[kind hatch]

Not by default no, but once they are in the pom, and you select it, it'll use them.

[icy beacon]

hey there, I decided to convert one of my utils' class to Kotlin for convenience, but I'm getting this error now (look at the attachment)
the method worked fine in the past, but it's an incompatibility with MockBukkit (I verified, removing MockBukkit fixes the error)
if anyone who's experienced in Kotlin could help me I'd greatly appreciate it 🙂

[kind hatch]

You'll want to clean then package.

[quiet ice]

Actually, they seem to get executed - whatever.

[jovial grotto]

Thanks!

[kind hatch]

You should setup a default goal so that you just have to click the green button at the top and it'll do the steps for you.

<build>
  <defaultGoal>clean package</defaultGoal>
...
</build>

You may not have as many modules as I have, but you just need to select the name of your module then press the green button.

[river oracle]

the struggle of NMS

[kind hatch]

Nothing but sometimes.

[quiet ice]

Alternatively, just build the parent project

[jovial grotto]

In my code I listen on the PlayerJoinEvent, however whenever it actually happens this error occurs -> https://paste.md-5.net/yutesimija.cs

    ... 15 more

explains it pretty well

[tardy delta]

assign it to a Boolean

[jovial grotto]

I am new to this lmao (and Java)

[tardy delta]

boolean b = map.get(whatever) calls Boolean.booleanValue() internally

[hybrid spoke]

the map doesnt contains the player

therefor it returns null

[jovial grotto]

ah

[tardy delta]

cuz a boolean cannot be null, a Boolean can

[quiet ice]

So just do if (FreeCommand.hm.get(p) != Boolean.TRUE) return;

[tardy delta]

welp thats a way too

[quiet ice]

Well that is the best way to do it due to implicit casts

Unless - lemme check

[tardy delta]

forgot Boolean.TRUE and FALSE existed

[jovial grotto]

That works

[civic wind]

How to add enchants to config?

[kind hatch]

I forget the wrapper classes exist all the time. I hardly have a reason to use them.

[civic wind]

Also, it's only displaying boots in my gui now?

It was literally working a minute ago before i tried adding enchants...

[kind hatch]

Are you wanting to just add the glow effect? Because if so, you don't need to put them in the config.
Just put the enchantment on the item, then modify your item meta.

[civic wind]

No, i need enchants on them

[quiet ice]

[geolykt@fedora new]$ rm -f Test.java && echo "class Test {public static void main(String[] args) {Object o = null; Boolean b = (Boolean) o; if (b != true) return; System.out.println(b);}}" >> Test.java && javac Test.java && java Test


Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.lang.Boolean.booleanValue()" because "<local2>" is null
    at Test.main(Test.java:1)

Yep, still NPEs

[jovial grotto]

How would I put this item into the middle of the inventory

[kind hatch]

That's because objects can be null. Primitives cannot.

[civic wind]

setItem

[tardy delta]

it calls null.booleanValue()?

[quiet ice]

I know that, just wanted to be sure

[quiet ice]

Yeah, if you do any operation (as in +, -, ==, etc) with a primitive, both values will be unboxed to a primitive if applicable

[tardy delta]

mmh

[quiet ice]

That ofc won't apply if none are primitive, hence

rm -f Test.java && echo "class Test {public static void main(String[] args) {Object o = null; Boolean b = (Boolean) o; if (b != Boolean.TRUE) return; System.out.println(b);}}" >> Test.java && javac Test.java && java Test

Will run

[tardy delta]

what about new Boolean(true) == true

will probably be equal

[kind hatch]

Then you're going to need to a resolver of some sorts. You could probably just store the name of the enchantment and use the namespaced key to convert it to a proper Enchantment object

[quiet ice]

That would call new Boolean(true).booleanValue() == true, hence returning true

[tardy delta]

yep does

[quiet ice]

On the other hand new Boolean(true) == Boolean.TRUE should return false

[kind hatch]

Why?

[tardy delta]

yep

[kind hatch]

It looks like it should be true in that case.

[tardy delta]

cuz object references

it doesnt call ::booleanValue right

[quiet ice]

Hence new Integer(), new Boolean(), etc are deprecated for removal

As they make little sense due to the contract of new

[civic wind]

Can anyone tell me why it's just showing the boots???

[tardy delta]

hmm makes sense now, i always thought Boolean.valueOf called the Boolean constructor

[quiet ice]

Nah, Boolean.valueOf() is more sane there

Same with Integer#valueOf - it will default to the internal cache of integers for certain values

[kind hatch]

You have an extra . in your path when you set the slot.

[tardy delta]

damn theres even an entire IntegerCache class

[civic wind]

0_o omg yh

kmt

[quiet ice]

there is?

[tardy delta]

internal class of Integer

looks like it gets the bounds from some properties

[quiet ice]

Yep

[tardy delta]

another class to explore

[quiet ice]

Although most of the magic behind that class are in the JVM itself

[opal juniper]

change the bounds

[tardy delta]

dunno how you would benefit from that

[quiet ice]

As those are static final you cannot do that easily

[untold patio]

Hey guys c; how can I save an arraylist of objects in a yml file so that when server reloads those objects are still in the array

c;

[tardy delta]

is it even possible to access those with reflection?

[quiet ice]

Just push the arraylist in that yaml configuration

[tardy delta]

Unsafe::putInt maybe

[quiet ice]

Access? Probably. Modify? Unlikely

[tardy delta]

altho youd still need the field

[untold patio]

Like if I were using a variable in the yml?

[quiet ice]

sun.misc.Unsafe does work though - I have done something similar when setting the internal bukkit unsafe in my hackloader

[tardy delta]

🥲

whats that hackloader about tho?

[quiet ice]

I've shown it once before I think, it's just a little hack to modify slimefun at runtime without tripping any anti-malware plugins

[tardy delta]

:o

[quiet ice]

(It won't trip any anti-malware plugins since I am pretty sure that I am the first to abuse the processClass method)

[opal juniper]

is it OS

[tardy delta]

hacky stuff

[quiet ice]

It is: https://github.com/Geolykt/EnchantmentsPlus/blob/4xx/src/main/java/de/geolykt/enchantments_plus/compatibility/hackloader/Hackloader.java

[opal juniper]

at opticfusion patch this ^^

:D

[tardy delta]

now i understand why writing a plugin in bytecode would be easy for you ;-;

[opal juniper]

cool thing tho

[tardy delta]

im learning about bytecode instructions in my free time

nothing better to do

[opal juniper]

im not, cause i dont hate myself

[tardy delta]

my life is already fucked up

[quiet ice]

there isn't that much to learn. If you know java, you will get behind JVM bytecode pretty fast

[quaint mantle]

Hey guys How can I detect item dropped on inventory? (Like Item Move to the other Inventory)

[quiet ice]

I believe you need to first listen for the item being taken and then list for the item being inserted I fear

[solemn meteor]

Is it possible to stop specific structures from generating? Like if I wanted to stop strongholds from spawning, is that possible?

[jovial grotto]

What is going on here?

that is the func but I can't see any issues with it

[quiet ice]

The Item is air, sometimes bukkit returns null instead of an empty itemstack

You shouldn't ignore nullabillity - although I guess you shouldn't use nullabillity when using spigot as the nullabillity documentation is rather lackluster under spigot

[jovial grotto]

So how would I fix this? My brain is quite frazzled as I have been at this for a while lmao

[kind hatch]

Did you register the event?

[quiet ice]

if (e.getCurrentItem() != null && eetc eetc etc)

[quiet ice]

Do you know what the event is used for?

Because in 90% of cases you misunderstood it, and would need to read the documentation again

[echo basalt]

It's for hoppers n dispensers type deal

[quiet ice]

Smh, spoiled the fun part

[echo basalt]

Hi sry but how can i detect when a player join a world ?

[hazy parrot]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/player/PlayerChangedWorldEvent.html ig

[civic spoke]

Hello! I'm trying to make a plugin but my Spigot server doesn't seem to detect it (showing 0 plugins in-game). The jar is in the plugins folder and the plugin.yml is in the base folder of the jar. Any ideas what's wrong?

[hazy parrot]

send errors that appear in console

[civic spoke]

i am so dumb i didn't see that it showed an error

[icy beacon]

don't be ashamed, we all began somewhere

by the way, do you know java or are you just starting?

[civic spoke]

[12:51:20 ERROR]: Could not load 'plugins\MninPlugin.jar' in folder 'plugins'
org.bukkit.plugin.InvalidPluginException: Cannot find main class `mnin.MninPlugin;'
    at --snip--

and I know java

wait

[hazy parrot]

show you plugin structure

[civic spoke]

oh my god i just put a ; in my yaml

[icy beacon]

lmao F

[civic spoke]

for the main is it supposed to be the file or the class?

[hazy parrot]

wdym

its your main class

[civic spoke]

like if my package is pkg and my main plugin class is MainPlugin in a file named plug, is main going to be pkg.plug or pkg.plug.MainPlugin

[icy beacon]

if you are using intellij, install the Minecraft Development plugin and let it handle the creation of your structure

[civic spoke]

i'm using eclipse

[icy beacon]

the class that extends JavaPlugin is what you should use

[civic spoke]

so it would be the latter

[icy beacon]

yeah

but why would you have such a structure in the first place

[civic spoke]

that is basically the structure of my project right now (not with those names; plug and MainPlugin map to the same name in mine)

[icy beacon]

so you have your main class inside of a file with another name?

[civic spoke]

and i updated my plugin.yml and it's still complaining that it can't find it

[icy beacon]

w hy

[civic spoke]

no i'm saying that they have the same name, i was just using different names to clarify what to put in the plugin.yml

the real name is mnin.MninPlugin.MninPlugin

[icy beacon]

noooooo

mnin.MninPlugin

[civic spoke]

so for the other example it would be pkg.plug?

[icy beacon]

does plug extend JavaPlugin?

here's an example from my plugin
plugin.yml: com.roughlyunderscore.enchs.UnderscoreEnchants

[civic spoke]

i just dmed you the filestructure

the main class is in MninPlugin.java

i got it working with mnin.MninPlugin in the plugin.yml

[icy beacon]

yeah

that's kinda

to be expected

[untold patio]

Guys, does anyone has a link or a youtube video where they explain how to save an arraylist of objects so that it's gonna keep its data even if server reloads

I've been looking for a way but can't find what I'm looking for

thank you

[icy beacon]

you meen persistent data storing?

[civic spoke]

probably convert it to json, save it to a file onDisable, then read it in onEnable

[untold patio]

Yes, It's an arraylist of homes (home class) and I need to store it

[jovial grotto]

I was going to commit to GH but this popped up, should I worry or is it fine?

[hazy parrot]

?pdc then

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-guide-to-1-14-persistentdataholder-api.371200/

[icy beacon]

well, there are multiple ways, but pdc or file

[jovial grotto]

I know it is errors and I know it'll keep going tho

[civic spoke]

also uh ```java
package mnin;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
import org.bukkit.Bukkit;

public class MninPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
// Fired when plugin is first enabled
@Override
public void onEnable() {
Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Hello, world!");
}

// Fired when plugin is disabled
@Override
public void onDisable() {

}

}

[untold patio]

Convert the arraylist to json?

[hazy parrot]

don't do that
