[tardy delta]

i thought that wouldnt give problems but it did

now only wondering wtf this is

theres a class extending Node if that helps

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

and (Node[]) new Object[26]; works fine, tf java

its not even generic that class

oh well it compiles but causes a classcast ex

[humble tulip]

Just cast the Node[] to Node[]

[tardy delta]

what

i believe its because my CharTree class is generic

and wtf java

[livid dove]

Very weird one but... listener for if a certain chunk loads?

[tardy delta]

isnt there a chunkload event?

i know there an unload one

[livid dove]

Certain chunk

[tardy delta]

ye just filter on it

[livid dove]

Oh god duh haha

There a waynto get a definitive list of every chunk too then?

Basically gonna build this damn delete all the shit plugon and have it slowly and passively delete the shitnmoment a chunk loads and theb scratch that chunk off the list

[tardy delta]

working with an Object[] works but looks brr lol

wdym a definitive list?

of all chunks loaded?

[livid dove]

Every chunk in the server files.

Once a chunk is loaded it..... omfg sorry I'm an idiot. I was gonna have a white list but in reality should be making a black list

[tardy delta]

java is weird

bruh now Array.newInstance(Node.class, 26) works

[livid dove]

So

-Chunk loads
-Checks every chest ,inv, shulker and furnace in the chunk
-deletes the item in question from each container-adds chunk to blacklist

[tardy delta]

uh go to all timestates

[livid dove]

?

[tardy delta]

all the tilestates in the chunk

[livid dove]

Ph yeah duh

[tardy delta]

iirc furnaces and chests are tileentities* i mean

maybe do some instanceof checks

[livid dove]

Maybe haha

[tardy delta]

furnace and chests are in there

those should be inventoryholders too, which has a getInv method

hope you actually know how to implement it

[humble tulip]

I'd backup the world

And try to work with the files itself

It'll be more efficient

• no workload on your server

[livid dove]

How would you even start with the file?

[humble tulip]

Good question

I wanna try to do it

[humble tulip]

https://wiki.vg/Region_Files

reading abt it here rn

and also https://wiki.vg/Map_Format#.5Bregion.5D.mca

@livid dove what mc version u using?

https://github.com/Querz/NBT

there's this

[topaz cape]

the nms world after going to the nether still is the OW fsr

it's confusing

maybe I'll need to just delay the packet

[worldly ingot]

Because when you change worlds, a new player instance is created

[topaz cape]

huh

[worldly ingot]

A new EntityPlayer instance, that is

Oh wait no, I'm mixing it up. Nevermind. It's the same

[topaz cape]

oh

[worldly ingot]

In vanilla it's a new EntityPlayer and we have a PR that restores that behaviour

[topaz cape]

thank god

hmmm

[worldly ingot]

Not sure why the world wouldn't update though

[topaz cape]

I'll try find a work around ig

[opal juniper]

or, find a way to fix it 😃

[wet breach]

depends on how you are obtaining this information

if you are trying to do it right after they teleport you will still have the previous world since changing worlds is like spawning

got to wait a tick or a few

[quiet ice]

last time I tried that lib it didn't work at all

[true oxide]

Hi im new to plugin making and im running into a few errors when I use intelliJ's minecraft plugin. When it auto made a class with "import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;" i got an error saying "Cannot resolve symbol 'JavaPlugin'. i tried installing spigot and spigot api in library and as dependencies

[humble tulip]

Yep doesn't work

[zinc egret]

thanks! unfortunately i got this:

What a joke

What's your --rev?

[zinc egret]

me? what --rev ?

[humble tulip]

what command did you run with buildtools?

[zinc egret]

intellij automated stuff

i cant send a pic

its like in the top right

im using this template from github

https://github.com/PierreV23/PL-Hide-help

one of the files says "feat: add support for building jdk17 packages with jitpack"

[true oxide]

can someone try helping me rq please

[zinc egret]

does anyone know a template for 1.19?

[pseudo hazel]

whats a template

[sterile token]

You mean how to create a basic plugin?

[zinc egret]

yes

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/create-a-simple-command/ reading this rn

[sterile token]

You have to verify with tour spigot account, and then You can send oictures

[zinc egret]

but doesnt even show me where to create the file

[dry yacht]

Haven't read the whole conversation, just wanted to add that I always successfully use this lib: https://github.com/tr7zw/Item-NBT-API

[sterile token]

I mean, that is not from spigot api

[humble tulip]

It's not for use with a mc plugin

[sterile token]

You must first learn how to code on Java and then You have to start working around with apis or libraries

[tardy delta]

🤔

[sterile token]

Fourten

Answerin to that

[zinc egret]

huh wait

[sterile token]

That si what i understand fron your text

[zinc egret]

alright here they show a pic of files in src/main/java but it never made me those https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/build-you-spigot-plugin-with-gradle-groovy/

[worldly raptor]

I'm trying to setup a claim system using GriefPrevention and the LP editor but im having trouble. Anyone able to help?

[sterile token]

?ask

[undone axle]

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for staff or topic experts. Don't ask to ask or ask if people are awake or available. Just ask the question to the channel straight out, and wait patiently for a reply. Make sure you use the right channel regarding the topic of your question. Create a thread in case the channel is already in use!

[sterile token]

Gradle is just a dependency manager, i don't understand what You mean

[zinc egret]

no idea what you're talking about

[sterile token]

Pierre, explain exactly what your question ir issue

I don't understand what You need exactly

[zinc egret]

i just want to set up a simple plugin with a single command

(for now)

[sterile token]

Ok

What have so far

You told me You are using gradle to build your project

That is okay

[zinc egret]

ugh i cant send pics

[sterile token]

You have ti verify using the ?verify command

[zinc egret]

i am trying

NewTo verify your discord account, please click this link.
Note that this cannot be undone!

just sends me this

WITHOUT A LINK

[sterile token]

What?

[quiet ice]

on the spigot account

[sterile token]

You have ti verify using your spigot account name

Oh geol You are here

[zinc egret]

it bugged out

[sterile token]

Now yes Pierre

You can send picks

[zinc egret]

there was no link ....

[sterile token]

You are already verified don't worry

[zinc egret]

what i have

[sterile token]

Okay

In My case i always delete the test folder

[zinc egret]

(for context, i have experiences in other languages: Rust, python and C++, so imo im somehwat familiar with programming)

[sterile token]

Oh ok

[zinc egret]

i'll just ignore it 👍

[sterile token]

Yeah Java si pretty different how You create project

[zinc egret]

yea its really ugly and messy

[sterile token]

Na it's okay

[zinc egret]

opinions differ, maybe i learn to like it 🤷

[sterile token]

Resources folder is like the assets folder from websites

Main is like the src folder

[zinc egret]

yeah

[sterile token]

It's the simple way for ezamplaning

So you have to code inside the folder Main/src

Have.you learnt Java itself before? Not wondering to sound rude, just to know how to explain some extra things

[zinc egret]

ehh wel

coding is general, but i havent really used java enough to be amature

[carmine urchin]

How would you make an npc disappear from your world and tablist with NMS for 1.19.3? I created a ServerGamePacketListenerImpl to get the player connection and then tried to send an Update Packet: ServerGamePacketListenerImpl ps = getPlayerServerPlayer().connection; ps.send(new ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket(ClientboundPlayerInfoUpdatePacket.Action.UPDATE_LISTED, npc)); But it is not doing anything. I also looked at https://wiki.vg/Protocol#Player_Info_Update and it showed "Actions bit 3: update listed" as a boolean but I don't know how to change it to false so that npc is not in tablist

[zinc egret]

but like i know theres gotta be a java thingy in java, with classes inside

[sterile token]

Because from my personal experiences i would first learn the lang itself where i code. And then start trying to use libraries or apis

Because Java it's not diff to code on it, but have many basic things to learn

I would first look how Java lang works really abstract, to then understand better the coding

Because Java is "pretty weird" cuz it's a lang where he compile what You code to a low level called Bytecode and then the JVM interpret that Bytecode

[zinc egret]

i just wanna throw myself in the deep because i have 0 mood to relearn the basic stuff like for loops

i will come across those later anyway

[sterile token]

So Java it's a compiled and interpreted lang

[zinc egret]

i know...

[sterile token]

Oh right

I told because i don't really know how much You know about Java

[zinc egret]

https://github.com/PierreV23/PLHide-Help

this is what i got

[sterile token]

Ok

1m please

?main

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/why-you-shouldnt-name-your-main-plugin-class-main.493289/

[sterile token]

Ignore that

Just trying to remember the command name

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/spigot-plugin-development/

That contains most of what You shouldn know

What IDE are You using?

[maiden thicket]

i feel like there was still no proper / technical reason given in this thread

from a CS pov

💀

[sterile token]

Cs?

[maiden thicket]

computer science point of view

there is no technical reason

given

[sterile token]

m

I said i run it wromgly

[maiden thicket]

oh yeah no

i'm just talking abt the thread

dont worry

the thread looks like bs 💀

[compact haven]

because there is no technical reason

[zinc egret]

im already following that tho...

[compact haven]

the naming of the class means nothing past developers

[maiden thicket]

yeah so therefore there's no actual reason why u shouldnt use Main

exactly

that thread shouldnt exist

its kinda bs 💀

[zinc egret]

why is it still showing those lines

[maiden thicket]

dont indent

[compact haven]

the only possible explanation is that Main should hold a JVM entry point, and because it doesn’t then you wouldn’t name it as such

but tbh you can change the entry point class anyways

[maiden thicket]

yeah so that thread sroopy

stoopy

this is why ily dlg

[zinc egret]

the IDE actually did that lol

[maiden thicket]

weird

[compact haven]

https://emote.land/emojis/BlueLove.gif

[maiden thicket]

u may have pressed enter before typing the bame

name

[sterile token]

I till don't understand what You mean by that replies to Main

[sterile token]

That happen only using the Minecraft-Development plugin

Because he parse the plugin.ynl file shole You coding

[compact haven]

I’ve never touched that plug-in and it happens to me

[maiden thicket]

i was talking about the thread that got linked

not about u

[compact haven]

it’s just an IntelliJ thinking you are making a new config section when you enter without a value

[maiden thicket]

its most likely u did

name: then hit enter

idk tho

yeah what dlg did

said*

[fading spindle]

in intellij im using minecraft development kit and when I start the servre with the plugin in it and do /plugins it doesn't show my plugin for some reason? anyone know why its my first time using intellij minecraft development plugin usually i just use maven

[maiden thicket]

show the console

there should be an error

[zinc egret]

https://github.com/PierreV23/PLHide-Help
what should i do next to create a command? im pretty sure im missing some stuff in main/java tho

[fading spindle]

?paste-md

?past

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[maiden thicket]

💀

[sterile token]

What i don't understand. I was looking for the command which sent You the basic plugin struxture. But i never find it

[fading spindle]

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

[compact haven]

you have no resources folder

[maiden thicket]

oh idk what command that is

[compact haven]

therefore no plug-in.yml, unless you have special build instructions

[fading spindle]

I do

[maiden thicket]

i was just ranting abt the thread

[compact haven]

oh you do

[maiden thicket]

under main?

[compact haven]

sorry I was in the other dudes GitHub

[compact haven]

what’s in it?

[maiden thicket]

go to plugin.yml

for me

[compact haven]

main is not correct

[maiden thicket]

because ur main package is me.code.Makn

Main

not FirstPlufin

[sterile token]

Scribe any issue ok console

[maiden thicket]

switch main to me.code.Main

the value there

[sterile token]

Yeah what he told

[fading spindle]

oh

lol

im dumb

[maiden thicket]

no worries

[sterile token]

Also don't name your plugin Main class as Main it's not a good practice i'm Java development

[maiden thicket]

basically plugins are loaded with the main class and since it cant find that main class its saying fuck u

[fading spindle]

Yeah i know i was just testing

[maiden thicket]

there is no valid reason for it to not be a good practicd

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/why-you-shouldnt-name-your-main-plugin-class-main.493289/

[maiden thicket]

again

that thread is bs

[compact haven]

but taah I have to say

There’s also no technical reason for us to use lower camel case in field naming

[maiden thicket]

yeah of course again, there is no "reasons" its just "encouraged" i guess

[compact haven]

we just do it because of its usage in the SDK and conventions written years ago

[maiden thicket]

for why irs encouraged? no idea

"java naming conventions"

but "naming conventions" dont say anything abt Main

[compact haven]

Encouraged because SDK developers did it decades ago xd

[maiden thicket]

as far as i know only people here have said ir

if sdk developers tell me not to use Main then sure

[compact haven]

yeah am not sure who started the main thing

[maiden thicket]

real

dlg are you in college now my good sir?

[compact haven]

Nope, hs

[maiden thicket]

ohhh so close

gonna study cs?

[compact haven]

Tbh we met a long time ago, I was lying about my age most likely lmao

Yeah, that’s the most likely route

[maiden thicket]

haha its okay a lot of ppl did

[sterile token]

Please just don't dicuss about Java cvoncentions and just foklow them

[compact haven]

It might be a branch like embedded engineering, but I might just go straight cs

[maiden thicket]

there is no java convention about Main

that is what we are saying lol

[maiden thicket]

gotcha! good luck in that man

CS is definitely interesting

[sterile token]

Ik but this for programming help if You dicuss is diff to get heped

[compact haven]

How are you doing, on that topic?

[maiden thicket]

i just started my first year in september and finished my first quarter

did my first data structures and algorithms class

[compact haven]

Ahh how is it

[maiden thicket]

well now its difficult because discrete math...

let us move to #general

[sterile token]

Please for that type of things move to #general

@zinc egret how are You going?

Doing what morice?

Someone was getting helped

Read full chat

And im surely he stopped asking because they startrd to dicuss

[maiden thicket]

no he got helped

[sterile token]

.

So comming back Pierre

[zinc egret]

look at my repo

14.01 00:02:07 [Server] [INFO] [PLHideHelp] Loading PLHideHelp v0.0.1

it loaded on my server

[sterile token]

For creating You have to do some things

1. Implements the CommandExecutor interface

2. Finally register your command via plugin Main class and via plugin.ynl too

Havent You update your code?

Okay what You have done its pretty okay

Now i would suggest following the next tuto for creating commands https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/create-a-simple-command/

[zinc egret]

yea im already following that

just updated my github

[river oracle]

Updated github???

[zinc egret]

?

can i load a json file on start

and store it in memory

[sterile token]

For that i recommend using a library for that

[sterile token]

For example gson, which already came inside the spigot

[zinc egret]

yea but like

is it possible to store it globally?

instead of loading the json file everytime

[sterile token]

Why do You mean globally?

What*

[zinc egret]

well globally or some other way

[orchid gazelle]

What is "globally"

[sterile token]

I don't understand your contexto global

[maiden thicket]

do u mean a static reference?

if so, i think so since u can rely on gson / or a json library

[compact haven]

an alternative would just be storing the memory object in the plug-in class, then sharing that with DI

[maiden thicket]

yeah

[zinc egret]

data = json.loads(read("xx.json"))

def command():
  global data
  print(data)

command()

def command(ctx):
  data = ctx['data']

command({'data': {}})

something like this i guess

[zinc egret]

this sounds like what i need

[compact haven]

yeah that’s this

At least the closest java can replicate

[zinc egret]

how tho 🥺

[compact haven]

well the real example is with static reference

but we aren’t going to teach bad habits

?di

[undone axle]

Guide to dependency injection: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/using-dependency-injection/

[compact haven]

oh lovely the tag exists (just kinda guessed)

?gson

unfortunately not

[zinc egret]

?json

?object

[compact haven]

Anyone have a good gson/Jackson tutorial on hand?

[zinc egret]

how would i go about doing this?

[rotund ravine]

Like the guide says

[zinc egret]

json itself should be pretty simple no? or is gson diff

[compact haven]

JSON is the standard, gson is the library to parse it

and obviously once you get into gson you need to actually know how to load it and use the memory object, that’s the purpose of a gson tutorial- how to use the library

(Gson is just a library by Google to parse and serialize json)

[zinc egret]

wait...

the goal of my plugin is only 1 command

cant i just pass the json when i this.getCommand("plhhelp").setExecutor(new HelpCommand());?

[compact haven]

Then why do you need json

[rotund ravine]

Just use a yaml

.configs

[compact haven]

what json are you using

[rotund ravine]

.config

[sterile token]

He habe done My fault, he startrd coding first without learning all the Java theory basic things

[rotund ravine]

.configuration

[compact haven]

?config

[rotund ravine]

.configurations

Oh ?

?configs

[undone axle]

See this wiki page on how to use custom configuration files: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[compact haven]

tag is question

yep

[zinc egret]

well actually my goal is this:

like imagine a json file with
{ group_name: [commands..] } (lets call this groupes)
and another json file with
{ command: 'Use this command to ....'} (and this commands)

and whenever someone would call /help it would send "\n".join(commands[command] for command in groupes[group_name]) in chat

[compact haven]

in Minecraft dev we use yaml

[rotund ravine]

Java doesn’t do those oneliners

[zinc egret]

i also have to read the perms of the player because i need to know what plhide.group.xxx theyre in

[compact haven]

unless it’s for user data, then json but we recommend an actual data engine

[zinc egret]

it was just an simple example

what i need then would be

[sterile token]

Yeah for plugins configuratiom we use yaml files and for storing data either databases or Flatfile (H2, Json, Sqlite, etc)

[orchid gazelle]

No, depending on the case, json is just better sometimes

Configs yaml yes, but not data at all

[compact haven]

mate read my further messages

did I like not specify that

to the point you had to comment

[sterile token]

Json is for storing data, that is the intention why they create it

[orchid gazelle]

You specficied "user data" not data at all

[compact haven]

user data as in user generated

not user user data

[zinc egret]

wait can i read the yaml of another plugin?

[compact haven]

my bad, too general

[zinc egret]

or i just copy the file tbh

[sterile token]

Yikes

[river oracle]

You could but why...

[orchid gazelle]

Well, there is a lot of data not relative on players

[compact haven]

I.e region data in world guard is user generated

because users create regions

and set flags

[sterile token]

You can load another plugin files from your own plugin

[zinc egret]

there's this plugin that hides command auto completion except for the ones they have acces to, but i want to make it so that when someone types /help it only describes the plugins they have acces to

[sterile token]

Its simple Json is just for data storing

[compact haven]

anyways, any data that should be file modified by the user should be in yml

[orchid gazelle]

Yes

[compact haven]

Yml is not simple json, it’s actually an expansion

but I digress

[river oracle]

That seems like a kinda meh idea. And not very scalable at all if you want to access other plugin configs.

[sterile token]

Json data storing or data representation

Yaml more for creating configuratioms

[orchid gazelle]

Yes

[compact haven]

and I agree, my message just wasn’t specific enough

y’all staying on a topic that is not necessary

[sterile token]

Youhopened that topic 🤦‍♂️

[compact haven]

DaFeist did

not me my friend

[sterile token]

Oh sorry

[orchid gazelle]

Lmao

Chill

[river oracle]

Just shush smh

[sterile token]

Well i'm this case i Will use yaml for configurations

And Json just for storing data

[orchid gazelle]

You already told us that 3 times now

Its okay

[zinc egret]

anyway im in desperate need of help 😭 (like litteraly i want help)

[sterile token]

Pierre what Will your plugin make

[zinc egret]

.

[compact haven]

oh

then yes you need that

the uh yml and groups

[zinc egret]

i can just copy it tbh

[compact haven]

as for yaml, should be well explained in the thread we sent

?configs

[undone axle]

See this wiki page on how to use custom configuration files: https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/config-files/

[compact haven]

for groups, loop the group names in the config (loop getConfigurationSection(“messages”).getKeys(false))

(Assuming your config is:

messages:
  default:
    - “Help”
```)

[zinc egret]

groups:
  #if no group is set via plhide.group.<group> this will be applied
  #do not rename the default group!
  #blocked commands will be automatically removed from the tabcompletion
  default:
    commands:
      - help
      - home
      - spawn
      - delhome
      - claim
      - unclaim
      - claimlist
      - trapped
      - nick
      - nickname
    #If the value is blacklist, the commands are blocked and invisible
    #If the value is whitelist, the commands only executable and visible
    group-mode: whitelist
    #If a player is in two groups, the group with the higher priority number is used
    #The minimum value is 0
    priority: 0
    #here you can add other groups
    #The group mode is taken from the main group, in this case the main group is "default"
    included-groups: []

  #This group for example will remove and block all commands
  #add permission plhide.group.xxx to apply this group
  Donator:
    commands:
      - prefix
    group-mode: whitelist
    priority: 1
    included-groups:
      - default
  Donator+:
    commands:
      - fly
    group-mode: whitelist
    priority: 2
    included-groups:
      - default
      - Donator
  Admin:
    commands:
      - plhide
      - lp
      - op
    group-mode: whitelist
    priority: 20
    included-groups:
      - default
      - Donator
      - Donator+

this is the yaml from the other plugin

[compact haven]

for checking groups, use player.hasPermission(“group.” + groupName) assuming player is a CommandSender or Player object and groupName is from the loop value I sent in the example above

[zinc egret]

but honestly i only use whitelist so i can negate the group-mode and priority

[compact haven]

wel im not going to teach you how to code such an extensive plugin, the example was just to show you how to get the keys under a config section in case you didn’t know how to do that (you probably don’t given you just started with snakeyml)

[mighty aurora]

What is the best way to check if two strings match? I know this is a stupid question but it seems like every time I send my code here and I have anything related to string matching somebody says the method is wrong.

[compact haven]

?equals

?==

[mighty aurora]

Also can I use spigot to create a book that has clickable text that will add more text into the book(it will be a written book) and so that I don't have to add a ton of different commands and sub commands to change whats inside the book based on the players clicks and such

[zinc egret]

cant i do something like

commands:
  spawn: TP to spawn
  home: TP to home
  prefix: set new prefix

groups:
  default:
    commands:
      - spawn
      - home
  donator:
    commands:
      - prefix
```?

so that i can just loop over?: for command in groups.xxx.commands { commands[command] }

[compact haven]

you sure can

stop with the python examples xd

or if that’s pseudo code

[zinc egret]

well

imo python IS pseudo code

[compact haven]

it looks like it but isn’t lol

[zinc egret]

but this isnt python because i used curly brackets

imo python is stupid bcz it uses indentation instead of curly brackets

[compact haven]

Do you want me to write you something to help you do that, and then you can attempt to figure out how it works?

will not spoon feed in the future unless it’s a new topic, so I highly recommend actually trying to figure out what each thing does

that’s honestly the best way to learn in your case when you have experience in previous languages and just not the syntactical structure and SDK of Java

[zinc egret]

as much help as you can / want

i like being spoon fed because i learn fast from just reading working code

[zinc egret]

rust, python, c++ so yeah... 💀

oh you said figuring it out myself best way

but anyway i figured i need to put Plugin plugin = getPlugin(); somewhere? then plugin.getConfig()

[compact haven]

No I meant figuring out how I coded it

Because you can imagine the structures you need to accomplish something, just not how to implement

By reading Java code that implements those structures, you’ll make relationships with your previous languages

[zinc egret]

oh yeah i think i can figure it out with the functions you send me

just struggling with getting that plugin

you meant these right?:
(loop getConfigurationSection(“messages”).getKeys(false))
player.hasPermission(“group.” + groupName)

[compact haven]

you’ll see

[zinc egret]

what do you mean youll see?

[compact haven]

from my code ;c

[zinc egret]

ohhh alright haha

i for a moment thought i was missing a clue or something

[humble tulip]

@worldly ingot I just forked bukkit and craftbukkit.
Bukkit is fine when I clone it in my ide but craftbukkit has some pom.xml errors
One of the craftbukkit errors was fixed simply by compiling bukkit
Here are the errors in my pom

[compact haven]

public class HelpCommand implements CommandExecutor {
  private YamlConfiguration config;
  public HelpCommand(YamlConfiguration config) {
    this.config = config;
  }

  // Last 4 lines known as a Dependency Injection pattern.
  
  public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String lbl, String[] args) {
    String userGroup = null;
    for (String group : getGroups().clone().reverse()) { // Remove .clone().reverse() if top value of list is the highest group in a hierarchy.
      // .clone() will duplicate the list indexes (not the elements, unimportant to know difference for now) into another list
      // .reverse() will reverse the order of the list, so 0 -> last index, 1 -> last index - 1
      if (sender.hasPermission("group." + group))
        userGroup = group;
    }
    
    if (userGroup == null)
      userGroup = "default"; /* Assuming you have a group named "default" and it's the "member" group */
      
    sender.sendMessage("Help:");
    for (String command : getCommands(userGroup)) {
      String description = getCommandDescription(command);
      sender.sendMessage("/" + command + ": " + description);
    }
    
    return true;
  }
  
  private List<String> getGroups() {
    return config.getConfigurationSection("groups").getKeys(false /* true for the keys of every element below and even further below. */);
  }
  
  private List<String> getCommands(String group) {
    if (group == null)
      return getCommandsAvailable();
      
    return config.getStringList("groups." + group);
    // As an alternative, you can always use config.getConfigurationSection("groups").getStringList(group);. Both work.
  }
  
  private List<String> getCommandsAvailable() {
    return config.getStringList("commands");
  }
  
  private String getCommandDescription(String command) {
    return config.getString("commands." + command);
  }
}

public class PLHideHelpPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
  ...
  public void onEnable() {
    ...
    YamlConfiguration config = getConfig(); // getConfig() provided by the parent class JavaPlugin
    getCommand("help").setExecutor(new HelpCommand(config));
  }
}

(abbreviation, will not copy your current code. add lines as necessary)

both are untested, written in Notepad++ so import as necessary.

Do note that this is immense spoonfeeding, so ask any questions that you have while you DO attempt to understand it

strongly encourage you to relate structures from any similar language to Java when you read through it

[zinc egret]

oh damn this is massive spoon feeding haha

it just bugs me that

things like getConfig and this are "just" there

[compact haven]

well it's not

oh

yes they are

[zinc egret]

instead of this.getConfig() and onEnable(this)

[compact haven]

but you need to understand that this is implied & added by the Java compiler before it goes to the JVM

[zinc egret]

yeah

but its just not explicit imo

[compact haven]

as for getConfig(), get used to it because this class is loaded & constructed by Spigot's plugin loader

it's just "there" because the class extends JavaPlugin

(to be more explicit you can write super.getConfig())

[zinc egret]

yeah, inheritance, if thats the right word

[compact haven]

yep

[zinc egret]

i do like that more

[compact haven]

I guess it's also a form of abstraction, but unimportant as all interfaces are abstraction

[zinc egret]

because at first sight you wouldnt know if getConfig() is an imported function or an inherited one

[compact haven]

(abstraction as in the four pillars of OOP, not the Java terminology)

[compact haven]

if it was imported you cant call it like that

any time you see just a method name, you know it's either in that class or from a parent class

okay well sorry that's a lie

[zinc egret]

how would it be then?

[compact haven]

you can do something called import static in Java, but the number of times I've seen that can be counted on one hand

you import classes in java, everything is a class

[zinc egret]

ayo how many fingers you got?

[compact haven]

so you'd have
import xx.x.x.MyClass

and MyClass.someMethod()

[compact haven]

just the 5 😉

[zinc egret]

so never
import xx.x.x.MyClass.someMethod
someMethod()?

[compact haven]

unless it has the static modifier after import, correct

[zinc egret]

thats incredibly stupid if im honest

[eager yew]

How can i create a world with the default ChunkGenerator with NMS? Any ideas would help, pls

[compact haven]

it's just how Java was designed. to call a method liek that it HAS to be static, and if it wasn't static you'd need an instance of the class

(MyClass.someMethod() or instanceOfMyClass.someMethod())

[humble tulip]

you mean you wanna do the same thing spigot does when you create a world?

[compact haven]

This is why you should never do something in Java with Spigot (or any library) without actually learning java

[zinc egret]

hmmm so someMethod() is possible if it doesnt use this?

[compact haven]

for example, no you can not import sendMessage from org.bukkit.Player

because sendMessage requires a Player instance

[zinc egret]

yes but thats obvious

[compact haven]

let me explain

[zinc egret]

what is a static modifier?

i know how instances works etc

but what if a function doesnt need an instance?

[eager yew]

I want to make a world with less oceans, so i thought i could get the default ChunkGenerator and then replace oceans with other biome or surface.

[humble tulip]

has anyone here forked craftbukkit?

[compact haven]

you have 2 types of invocations: a static invocation and a direct one (this is not a JVM topic, just a simplification).

A direct one is typically someVariable.hello(). HOWEVER, the exception is when you declare the method OR a class you implement/extend declares the method. Then, you have this as a keyword because you use the instance the code is currently running in of that class. Like, inside of the org.bukkit.Player class, you have sendMessage(String s). Assuming a method inside of that class wants to call #sendMessage(), it doesn't have a variable (called field, parameter, or variable for local declarations) as the instance of the Player. It does, however, have an instance because it's currently executing, and that's what is provided by the this keyword. The inclusion of this is implicit, unless you're attempting to pass this as a parameter. For example if I have Util.sendMessage(Player player, String s) defined as a static method (will attempt to explain shortly), then to call it inside of org.bukkit.Player I'd need to use Util.sendMessage(this, "Hello World")

A static method is a method that doesn't require the instance of the declaring class to execute. That also means you can't access non-static fields from it (variables declared at the class level). The inclusion of this keyword is NOT present to call a static method, because you aren't invoking it with your instance. You may pass this into a static method, but the method will not be invoked from this. this.staticMethod() is not possible, staticMethod(this) is. Do note that the this keyword is also NOT accessible from side static methods because there is no instance for this to represent.

As for the question about static modifiers, I don't know that static is a modifier in the import statement per se, it's a token for when the Java compiler compiles the file. However, "modifier" is a term used in Java, and that's for miscellaneous tokens such as "static", "private", "public", etc. These are the first two brackets of info (in my example below) in the method declaration:
[access modifier] [etc modifiers] [method name]([method parameters , ...]_ { ... }

(long read but all of it is important info)

[zinc egret]

imo class methods should use an argument for this and when its called on an instance it automatically passed that arg, this is how its done in most languages afaik

not really able to take all that text in, its kinda late for me

[compact haven]

https://emote.land/emojis/PandaMadSip.png

you better read it when u wake up, otherwise I'm sending you an invoice for the time it took to write all of that

[zinc egret]

haha i will

btw you used List, import java.util.List; this one?

[compact haven]

Yes

[sterile token]

Isnt what i have been sayimg from the start?

[compact haven]

yes, and I agree with you

but he's going to do it anyways

[sterile token]

I don't told it as mad, just for personal experiences

[compact haven]

i never said a word of disagreement about your statement

yeah it's because with previous knowledge in programming, you're going to dive straight in

[sterile token]

Oh ok sorry Itzdlg idk why i thought You we're attatching me. My bad

[compact haven]

nah you're good

[sterile token]

I habe relized that Async it's not definitly so simple

💀

It's more what You think, idk why ppl said it's easy to understand. I don't really agree cuz the concept is clarify. But not the implementation because you have to take care about sync around the data, concurrencys, threads and pools

[zinc egret]

gotta dive in those 3" inch right from the start 😎.

no use in taking it slow

[compact haven]

well I agree with VERANO on the learning java

but I've been hypocritical in the past on that exact statement

like when I was learning Rust, I was attempting to use winsafe crate basically immediately

(still don't know Rust, so perhaps that's a testament)

[zinc egret]

write an essay rn on how the borrowing system works

🔫

[sterile token]

Itz let do our things because ppl like that won't listen us. Si the Best thing is to ignore them

[compact haven]

well I might be able to do that only because a cool video existed in a series called Rust for Java developers

there's no way I would've read the Rust book documentation though

[zinc egret]

i struggled so much with the borrowing system, but then it just clicked

but tbf i was coming from python

[zinc egret]

shit is so boring

[compact haven]

doesn't make it any easier coming from Java, it handles that for you

[zinc egret]

true

[sterile token]

Hey please personal problems must be solved vis dns. This discord is for supporting ppl which has knowledge atleast how Java works

[zinc egret]

honestly im not really struggling with the syntax

but i am really with the structure of gradle

or atleast i was, now i somewhat get it

but you have to configure alot and name stuff very specifically

like for example Rust has Cargo

which is amazing imo

but as far as i have noticed you have to supply your own depency source, instead of a centralized one (like cargo from rust or pip from python)

[sterile token]

I personal think You doing things really wrongs, You must first learn the lang we're You coding, then dependency build environments and finally work with 3rd party libraries or apis

[zinc egret]

that wouldve just been so much longer

[sterile token]

So if You expected yo get help You must know the lang we're You coding. So it's not really simple i ask something get all served on plate without knowing what even does

[zinc egret]

i mean if we were talking about java -> rust, yes learn the language

but rust -> java, aint no way

[sterile token]

So definitly programming is not for You

[zinc egret]

why are you so mad at me

[zinc egret]

this too

[mighty aurora]

If I was creating a quest system that used NPC's to basically only give a book that contains the quest information and whether to accept or not would I need or even want to store the NPC's inside a database?

[sterile token]

You making mad because You Dont listen US, WHO we have experiences about Java programming. That males You look like little teen. Not wondering to be rude

[sterile token]

Why would you stores the NPC?

Will You then need to use it?

[mighty aurora]

It needs to be used for the quest

and that quest will be done many times

[zinc egret]

we just have different learning approaches?

[sterile token]

Lmao what an amazin way of learning 💀💀🤣🤣

[unkempt peak]

Fr

[sterile token]

Like i have said before if i would ignore this from the start all this wouldnt happen

[zinc egret]

why in gods name would i want to start watching a youtube tutorial that covers shit like a + b and storing variables, if i can just look at working code and see that [type] [name] = [casting] func(); or [type] [name] = new [type]();

of course there are complex stuf out there but i will learn those along the way

[unkempt peak]

You can't just start programming stuff without taking the time to learn and then waste others time due to your lack of experience and unwillingness to learn it properly. If you just take the time to actually understand what you are doing it will save you and others so much time in the future @zinc egret

[zinc egret]

i understand what i am doing now, big thanks to wholesome white bear guy

[mighty aurora]

Also what would the best way to store a book inside a database be? can it be done reasonably with a single MySQL column or would it need/want multiple?

[zinc egret]

i learn quick from examples

[sterile token]

BRUH do what ever your ass sang but don't expect to be helped on that way

😡😡

You know make me raged

[zinc egret]

bro chill

[compact haven]

throw it into a column and be done with it

unless you need to SQL query based on book data but you'll be writing an SQL structure for that for ages

[zinc egret]

itzdlg was willing to spoon feed me (although it was more than needed)

[mighty aurora]

I would be querying based on another column

[compact haven]

then you'll be fine

[mighty aurora]

Would that be like grab the ItemMeta or ?

[compact haven]

uh

there's ItemStack serialization gists out there

find one that works with books

anyone have something on hand that works with complex ItemMeta like books? pls share for this wonderful guy here

[sterile token]

Really thank to heaven we have this option for blocking pol

🤣🤣

[zinc egret]

you're dramatizing, just relax kiddo

    private List<String> getPlayerGroups(Player player) {
        Set<String> groups = config.getConfigurationSection("groups").getKeys(false /* true for the keys of every element below and even further below. */);
        List<String> joined = new ArrayList<String>();
        groups.forEach((group) -> {
            if (player.hasPermission("plhide.group." + group)) {
                joined.add(group);
                joined.addAll(getInheritedGroups(group));
            }
        });
        return joined;
    }

how does this look to you @compact haven

its likely that joined has double groups in it tho

wait i can just use set, if its like in python that is

oh yeah lol

[sterile token]

I have read abou Async on Java and it's not so simple as most You have said. Because in Async you must care about concunrencies, data sync around the threads, and many other things

[zinc egret]

    private Set<String> getPlayerGroups(Player player) {
        Set<String> groups = config.getConfigurationSection("groups").getKeys(false /* true for the keys of every element below and even further below. */);
        Set<String> joined = new HashSet<String>();
        groups.forEach((group) -> {
            if (player.hasPermission("plhide.group." + group)) {
                joined.add(group);
                joined.addAll(getInheritedGroups(group));
            }
        });
        return joined;
    }

[humble tulip]

anyone here has forked craftbukkit?

[compact haven]

mb was in general

let me take a look

[zinc egret]

just gotta take care of nulls in my (other) functions

but i will do that later

[compact haven]

well this doesnt make sense

if you give them a permission plhide.group.xxx then just check for the groups inside of your config.yml

not their actual groups

otherwise don't give them a special permission at all

you need to work on your logic here

[zinc egret]

?

plhide.group.xxx is given by a different plugin

it determines what group they are in

[compact haven]

wdym given by

[zinc egret]

which groups someone is in isnt stored inside the config

[mighty aurora]

title: <book title>
author: <author name>
pages:
- <page text>
- < .. more pages .. >
generation: <generation code>```Would this from https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/itemstack-serialization/ work?

[compact haven]

why do you need all of their plyer groups

and not just the one that matched

I'd only need the ones that matched because that's all that you'll use

[zinc egret]

someone can have multiple groups

[compact haven]

sure, but you just said that those groups aren't inside of the config

you need to make sure the groups they inherit are also inside the config

[zinc egret]

i think we are miscommunicating

[compact haven]

is getPlayerGroups for the help command?

[zinc egret]

they are

[humble tulip]

given that you copied it.. i'd say yeah

[mighty aurora]

Well yeah

[zinc egret]

let me come back in 15 minutes and i'll push it all to my github

[tall dragon]

there is a centralized one as well. those will just require the dependency. but the stuff from spigot is not on there.

oops looks like i wanst looking at most recent messages, sorry

[zinc egret]

haha

no worries

[zinc egret]

why not tho? im interested

[tall dragon]

it'd have to be accepted by maven central i guess. for which im not sure the requirements are.

[compact haven]

||```
Set<String> joined = groups.stream()
.filter(g -> player.hasPermission("plhide.group." + g)
.flatMap(g -> Stream.concat(Stream.of(g), getInheritedGroups(player).stream()))
.filter(g -> groups.contains(g))
.collect(Collectors.asSet());

if you want it to be streams, only providing this because you used the .forEach (which I'm going to assume was copied from somewhere else). however, I will admit this is convoluted and just wanted to expose you to streams (this specific example is probably slower than what you're doing now). ulterior motive haha||

read if you want spoiler to a cool Java feature that probably has an equivalent in one of your languages

https://emote.land/emojis/PandaPopcorn.png

[zinc egret]

i actually did use streams later on

crazy nice

its like .iter() in rust

[compact haven]

ah I see, that's where you got forEach from I'm going to guess

[zinc egret]

i found forEach first, streams later when i tried .map

[compact haven]

ahh

[zinc egret]

intellij autocompleted it to stream().map

[zinc egret]

ahhh, nice pfp btw 🤓

[compact haven]

yep yep you've experienced the benefit of having previous experience

[tall dragon]

thanks, haha

[compact haven]

new people would be completely clueless to how streams work, u can relate it to iter

[zinc egret]

yes

[compact haven]

whereas you would've been exposed to that way later on if you followed "how to Java" conventionally

[zinc egret]

although in python its done differently

[zinc egret]

which wouldve sucked (i've tried java from start)

[compact haven]

@tall dragon what is that from? just curious

[zinc egret]

inazuma eleven

its the alien guy

even tho theyre not alien

[compact haven]

ah I see

[tall dragon]

yea ^

i used ai to greatly up the frame rate

and this was the result

[zinc egret]

in python you actually have to "implement" __iter__ a function on each class

[humble tulip]

^^

[compact haven]

I mean, anyone who has made a spigot fork has

[humble tulip]

i need help

[compact haven]

not in reality, but effectively

[humble tulip]

i forked it but it has a bunch of errors

[compact haven]

(they jsut cloned and made patches, then applied them)

well that really sucks lmao

[humble tulip]

building bukkit (not craftbukkit) fixed some

[compact haven]

I'd attempt asking in PaperMC because they're probably experienced in cloning CraftBukkit

[humble tulip]

i have these in my pom

[compact haven]

well I ahven't personally done it, so I can't help xd

[humble tulip]

forking paper is actually easier

[zinc egret]

forking paper sounds really stupid in my head

[humble tulip]

lmao

[zinc egret]

like why tf would you wanna put paper on a fork

[compact haven]

well xd

[zinc egret]

@compact haven it worksss first goo letssfffff goooo

i changed it to just returning the command names instead of their description (i still have to write those)

[compact haven]

W

[zinc egret]

what does this mean?

[compact haven]

final is a modifier in java

it's similar to making something immutable in rust

i.e. not including the mut keyword

[zinc egret]

thats what i assumed

so bad thing !

or wait

no good

[compact haven]

though do note that iirc in Rust if it's not mut then you can't modify the values inside of the struct

but in Java you can

(lmk if I'm wrong on that)

[zinc egret]

if something in rust is not mut, then everything inside is also not mut, well it can be mut but you cant acces it as mut

it would be &&mut or something

[fiery shadow]

guys

[compact haven]

gotcha, yeah in Java if it's final then that just means the reference of "config" is locked to that instance of YamlConfiguration, but the values inside are still mutable

[zinc egret]

maybe if you go inside the unsafe terrotory

[fiery shadow]

i need help with some problem in the world generator

[humble tulip]

?ask

[undone axle]

If you have a question, please just ask it. Don't look for staff or topic experts. Don't ask to ask or ask if people are awake or available. Just ask the question to the channel straight out, and wait patiently for a reply. Make sure you use the right channel regarding the topic of your question. Create a thread in case the channel is already in use!

[zinc egret]

yeah you mean like you cant redefine config with a new instance?

[compact haven]

correct

[zinc egret]

yucky behaviour but still fine

[fiery shadow]

i dont know why the world is generated like this

[zinc egret]

||looks perfectly fine to me 👍 ||

[fiery shadow]

no

[zinc egret]

im just kidding

[compact haven]

I mean if the goal was Minecraft vanilla generation then yes, way off!

[fiery shadow]

xd

[compact haven]

but if you're trying to be unique, then A+

[compact haven]

it looks like spectator mode ngl

[fiery shadow]

im in creative

[compact haven]

well, minus the falling entities

no I know, I mean like if u generate a vanilla world and go into spectator below the surface

it looks like that xd

[fiery shadow]

yes xd

[humble tulip]

let's see ur current code

[fiery shadow]

i tried 4 times to generated the world

and it is always generated like this

[compact haven]

it's the RNG

you're just unlucky

[fiery shadow]

rng?

[compact haven]

will need to repeat 1 billion times to be reasonably positive it's a mistake

uhm, RNG = random number generator

kind of slang for saying the random number is never in your favor

(will assume that there's some sort of random inside of world generation code)

[fiery shadow]

multiversecore dosnt works too

xd

[humble tulip]

@fiery shadow show your code

[fiery shadow]

?

code of what

[compact haven]

btw @zinc egret an interesting alternative to consider would be instead of groups, just have a list of commands & their permission + description

then just display the ones, in order of declaration in config, that they have permission for

[zinc egret]

that last filter is kinda abundant, because i know for sure it has to exist

[compact haven]

mm, idk the implementation of getInheritedGroups

if it is based on the ConfigurationSection, then absolutely

[zinc egret]

that actually sounds like more work

[compact haven]

it is

you'll need to find the permission for each command xd

[zinc egret]

yes...

[compact haven]

however it's more structurally sound to me

logical might be the better word

but both work, absolutely lol

[zinc egret]

current one is cleaner imo

btw

what if i want to make it so if the command description doesnt exist?

contains?

[humble tulip]

should spigot have a method to open an inv with a custom name?

[fiery shadow]

maybe my problem is that the base server is 1.19.3 and I'm on 1.16.5?

xd

[compact haven]

wdym

oh i see

like I have test as an entry in one of the group sections, but no test in the description section?

[zinc egret]

yeah

[compact haven]

you could add a filter(cmd -> getCommandDescription(cmd) != null)

[zinc egret]

    private String getCommandDescription(String command) {
        if (config.contains("commands." + command)) {
            return config.getString("commands." + command);
        }
        return "No description found";
    }
```i came up with this

[compact haven]

or filter(cmd -> !config.getConfigurationSection("commands").contains(cmd))

[zinc egret]

because i prefer to know which one have been added yet

[compact haven]

that works

[zinc egret]

is it good tho?

[compact haven]

however if you want to be special, you can

[tender shard]

why not just do ```java
return config.getString("commands." + command, "No description found")

[compact haven]

oh yeah

no alex

[zinc egret]

overflows be like 🥴

[compact haven]

that filter was for the stream in the command exec part

[tender shard]

idk I only just joined and see that they did if/else to return a default value

[compact haven]

the special was going to be ternary, but that is the correct way @zinc egret

you can add an extra argument which is the "default" value

[zinc egret]

yeah

[compact haven]

and it's only used when the node isnt found

[zinc egret]

its like python's dict.get function

[compact haven]

the same also goes for a Java Map btw

iirc it's required by implementations to have a get(T key, V default) method

T & V are generics, another pre-exposure like I tried with streams earlier (unfortunately failed so attempting again)

idk about Rust but pretty sure C++ has an equivalent

iirc that was one of the languages you know

[zinc egret]

you mean overflows?

[compact haven]

no overflow

[zinc egret]

same functions different ways to put args

[compact haven]

give me an example, overflow as in stack overflow?

oh uhm

[pseudo hazel]

overloaded

[compact haven]

in java that's called method overloading

not overflowing

[zinc egret]

its overloading ye mb

[compact haven]

but no I meant the letters T and V, they aren't classes but a placeholder of sorts

[zinc egret]

yeah generics

[compact haven]

https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch10-01-syntax.html

yep

[zinc egret]

if HashMap<T, V> then HashMap.get(T key, V default)

[atomic dirge]

Hello,
Can someone help me to find this plugin?
I need a limitation of claims per group.
For example:
Group 1 - can have only 1 claim
Group 2 - can have 2 claims
Group 3 - can have 3 claims
Group 4 - can have 4 claims
Gruop 5 - can have 5 claims
Group 6 - can have 6 claims

[compact haven]

exactly

[zinc egret]

i love generics

they're my e-gf (they also exist offline)

[compact haven]

well prepare to be disappointed, because Java generics only exist at compile time

[zinc egret]

L

[compact haven]

L java

[ivory sleet]

get(Object key) :c

[compact haven]

oh yeah

[zinc egret]

python actually doesnt have overloading btw, because there are no types during compile time

[compact haven]

isn't Map generic, but uses Object in the declarations

[ivory sleet]

yeee

[compact haven]

wtf is up with that, is that because it was written pre-generics?

[zinc egret]

OHHH you were talkign about Map not map, i was confused earlier haha

[pseudo hazel]

yeah python has optional arguments

[zinc egret]

which are nice, but slightly weird

[ivory sleet]

yes

[compact haven]

oh yeah I meant the class, not the stream method xd

[ivory sleet]

hehe

[pseudo hazel]

they are just overloading but done differently xD

[zinc egret]

big fan of kwargs tho

[compact haven]

idk what kwargs is, but we have varargs in Java

[ivory sleet]

java also
method(Optional<Hehe> hereComeLol)

[compact haven]

oh so varargs is equiv to *args in py

[ivory sleet]

yea

[compact haven]

whats kwargs?

[ivory sleet]

passing a map basically

[compact haven]

ah

mate is passing JSON into a method 😏

[zinc egret]

def function(name, last_name = None):
  if not last_name:
    last_name = ""
  print(f"Hello {name}{' ' if last_name else ''}{last_name}")

function('p', 'v')
function('p')

def function(*, **kwargs): 
  print(kwargs)

function(cheese = "ham")
# ->
# {'cheese': 'ham'}

function()
# ->
# {}

def function(*, ooga_booga = False):
    print(ooga_booga)

function() # False
function(True) # False
function(ooga_booga = True) # True

wait shit

[compact haven]

I think that's for optional args

we don't even have that in Java

it's so lame

need Kotlin for that

instead we need to write like 20 overloaded methods that call the actual method with the defaults

[ivory sleet]

ye

[compact haven]

I just saw your previous message Conclure

and Optional is like not the equivalent 😭

you still need to pass Optional.empty() instead of excluding it

[zinc egret]

edited

[zinc egret]

same in rust

[ivory sleet]

ye it was kind of a joke

but also method overloading with optionals is clowny stuff

[compact haven]

oh yeah

because once again, generics erased at runtime

and fucking method overloading

[humble tulip]

YESS

CONCLURE

[ivory sleet]

java at its purest

hi minion

[humble tulip]

hello

i'm sure you've compiled craftbukkit before right?

[zinc egret]

@compact haven how can i reload the config without restarting the plugin?

[compact haven]

oh i just realized

[humble tulip]

can you look at this conclure?

[compact haven]

anyone who has written a PR for Spigot has done what you are

[humble tulip]

yeah

[compact haven]

that's a sizeable amount of active peeps here

[zinc egret]

well unless they didnt test it lmao

[ivory sleet]

nope im sry

or not in that way

[humble tulip]

woah rly?

[ivory sleet]

spigot api

and paper

but not craftbukkit

[humble tulip]

well i mean

i forked craftbukkit from spigot stash

[ivory sleet]

yea figures

[humble tulip]

ah so you won't be able to help?

ik you're a big brain dude

[ivory sleet]

let me have a look

[humble tulip]

sure ty

[compact haven]

uh Pierre, that's a great question

can you reload getConfig() (to the others)

or should you just getConfig().load(new File(dataFolder, "config.yml")

oh there's reloadConfig()

how convenient

@zinc egret you'll need an instance of your Plugin class, and then call reloadConfig()

so inside of a ReloadCommand, instead of passing YamlConfiguration config, pass Plugin plugin, and use plugin.reloadConfig() inside of the command exec

[zinc egret]

yeye

shit im so tired

4am 🥱

[compact haven]

lmao that's me all the time

I decide I want to try something new too late to actually get very far

[ivory sleet]

so what does the errors say?

[compact haven]

though tbf you've gotten further than I would've expected

[ivory sleet]

or like... what does ur ide say

[zinc egret]

wanna come back to this btw 😉

[compact haven]

kay that might be an overuse of streams

[zinc egret]

in sense of the plugin?

[compact haven]

yes

[zinc egret]

wouldnt have been without you

[zinc egret]

EXACTLY that

[zinc egret]

honestly i shouldnt have continued when i came back to my pc at ~23:30

[ivory sleet]

so thing is like

[compact haven]

nah its ok

[ivory sleet]

thats a prop

[compact haven]

W spigot programming

[ivory sleet]

i looked at the pom

[compact haven]

or actually

[ivory sleet]

it isnt listed

[compact haven]

W java (exception of old libraries that haven't been updated since like Java 6)

[ivory sleet]

weirdly enough minion

[humble tulip]

also this happens

a decent amount of classes have errors calling nms methods

[zinc egret]

no it is not

i love those one liners

because its linear

you dont need to jump lines to understand it

[compact haven]

I mean, technically, you can put that entire java file into one line

and it'll still compile

though I understand what you mean xd

[zinc egret]

like

if you'd be adding to a variable thats defined earlier

you gotta look back at that variable whenever something gets added to it

linear is just easier to understand for my smooth brain

[compact haven]

lol

btw I'd recommend not using Set for commands

because ideally you'll have some sort of organization

if you want to return it as a set from the config, then in the stream use a sort alphabetically (where you sendMessage)

[zinc egret]

bro as if you read my mind

i was going to do that from the start

was looking over my code for cleanup and finalization

realised i didnt do it yet

[compact haven]

lmao

[zinc egret]

implemented it and came back to disc

    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
        if (sender instanceof Player player) {
            player.sendMessage(
                    getPlayerCommands(player)
                        .stream()
                        .filter(Objects::nonNull)
                        .sorted()
                        .map(c -> "/" + c + ": " + getCommandDescription(c))
                        .collect(Collectors.joining("\n")
                        )
            );
        }
        return true;

[compact haven]

am just that good of a peer-reviewer

[zinc egret]

for real

[compact haven]

please put a space before the return and move the closing bracket of the stream & sendMessage to the end of collect

before I come after you with an axe

[zinc egret]

no

[compact haven]

you must format the way I would. sorry.

oh well. seems you need an intervention in the form of capital punishment

[zinc egret]

im gonna give it a final test

then cry myself to bed bcz im hella tired

[compact haven]

lol

[zinc egret]

bro

i just joined my server

typed /stop

then got confused when the server suddenly stopped

thats my brain rn

[compact haven]

uhm dw you'll do stupider in the future

[zinc egret]

thanks

[compact haven]

with a fully active brain I've recompiled several times to ask "why isn't this updating"

[zinc egret]

or i just stop developing java plugins

[compact haven]

to realize I didn't actually put the new target into the server

[zinc egret]

jk i'll be having java next semester lmao

L

[compact haven]

OR I've put the recompiled plugin into the root directory instead of the plugins directory

[zinc egret]

💀

[compact haven]

(if you ever come across this in the future, the root directory is called the "worlds directory" in Bukkit and is accessible via Bukkit.getWorldContainer())

[zinc egret]

lmao, thing for tmrw i guess

[zinc egret]

sounds like a skill issue tbh 🤓

[compact haven]

probably a simple node naming error in the code

like command. vs commands.

[zinc egret]

pls

dont make me look

[compact haven]

go look

then dont compile

and make yourself think "was that the solution"

all night while u attempt to sleep

see I can be a sadist at times

https://emote.land/emojis/WorryShrug.png

[zinc egret]

reloading also doesnt work

[zinc egret]

bro how do you think i'll attempt to sleep

as soon as i hit my bed im gone

[compact haven]

lmao

that FR is clearly the "im done and we'll talk later" cue

go sleep lol, dont forget abt Java

[zinc egret]

yes thanks for the help <3, will be back tmrw

[compact haven]

have a goods night rest

and I'm going to assume a good afternoon rest as well

https://emote.land/emojis/BlobSmirk.png

[humble tulip]

let's see the line that it occurs

seems like you're calling setProcessComments on a snakeyaml configuration

which isnt a method according to the stacktrace

what mc version?

that may be the issue

the snakeyaml in 1.8.8 is OLD

waterfall is the proxy

?1.8.8

yeah 1.8.8 snakeyaml is very old

not sure

I'm not familiar with this lib

[humble tulip]

check your plugin.yml

the command isnt there

[warm light]

@humble tulip can you give me an example of 'Forward' channel? I read the docs many times. but can't understand it

I want to send a custom string. so look like I need to use Forward channel

[humble tulip]

@warm light show code

[warm light]

here is the code
I am confuse with channel things

[humble tulip]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/bukkit-bungee-plugin-messaging-channel/#forward

you can copy the code from here

[humble tulip]

got it?

[warm light]

how can I make sure its my data? now from other plugins

[humble tulip]

it tells you how to

change MyChannel

[warm light]

so I can set the channel name to anything?

[humble tulip]

yes

[warm light]

what does this called "Forward", "MessageRaw" etc?

[humble tulip]

Think of the plugin messaging channel as a way to send and receive data
