[eternal night]

let me create the jar for you then, no plugin.yml needed right ?

[wet breach]

so if I do so I would be making it blindly

[wet breach]

if you extend pluginbase it doesn't require a plugin.yml

[eternal night]

okay 👍 I'll even implement all the abstract methods

[wet breach]

yeah can just put generic stuff for that

[tender shard]

let's see

this whole discussion ahah

how owuld the server even know which is the PluginBase class without plugin.yml

[eternal night]

ssssh

[tender shard]

so let's go

paper is starting up

oh no

what a surprise

who would have guessed that

[eternal night]

that is crazy

[hard ether]

can i ask a 1.8.9 forgegradle question

[eternal night]

I have the same result

[tender shard]

must be a paper bug ig

[eternal night]

the server doesn#t load it

[tender shard]

lol

[eternal night]

yea for sure

fucking paper messing with this again

[wet breach]

did you add a plugin.yml?

[tender shard]

oh shit I actually did have a plugin.yml inside

haha yeah again

one sec

I forgot to mvn clean

here you go

[wet breach]

so paper removed the functionality

[tender shard]

lol

[eternal night]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[wet breach]

now is still the same with spigot?

[tender shard]

dw i got spigot too

[remote swallow]

dont ask why im asking this, brain cells turned off. but am i correct in saying i could```java
String string = "cool string";
for (String key : Map) string.replace(key, map.get(key)

[wet breach]

I will have to ask md5 if he chaged it

[eternal night]

nah I think we obviously just never used it

[wet breach]

wouldn't surprise me, so few people used it anyways

[hard ether]

yea? no?

[tender shard]

?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!

[hard ether]

my 1.8.9 gradle process wont work.. ive tried clearing caches, reinstalling, restarting ide, force quiting java, and nothing works.

Gradle's dependency cache may be corrupt (this sometimes occurs after a network connection timeout.)

Re-download dependencies and sync project (requires network)
The state of a Gradle build process (daemon) may be corrupt. Stopping all Gradle daemons may solve this problem.

Stop Gradle build processes (requires restart)
Your project may be using a third-party plugin which is not compatible with the other plugins in the project or the version of Gradle requested by the project.

In the case of corrupt Gradle processes, you can also try closing the IDE and then killing all Java processes.

[hard ether]

ok

[tender shard]

using spigot @wet breach

[hard ether]

mb

[eternal night]

awww

must have been removed

[wet breach]

you can ask your question but you are using forge

[tender shard]

shall I try craftbukkit too?

[hard ether]

so thats a no?

[eternal night]

lets see the git history xD

[tender shard]

yes pls

[hard ether]

i just dont wanna be ignored and then not get the cue that yall cant answer my question

lol

[wet breach]

could you please?

[tender shard]

I dont know how to search through git efficiently so pls you do it

[wet breach]

because extending pluginbase was a thing

[tender shard]

you must be confusing this with something else

[wet breach]

but as I said since hardly anyone used it doesn't surprise me if it was a removed functionality

[wet breach]

No I am definitely not

I have projects on a backup somewhere that use it

i will get them out when I get spigot stuff compiled after work tonight/tomorrow

[wet breach]

test something for me

[tender shard]

this is the oldest version of Pluginbase I could find, from 2012:

[wet breach]

add a plugin.yml but don't add the main class thing

[tender shard]

here's the corresponding plugin interface

still, abstract class + interface

not psosible that this was ever able to get loaded in any way by spigot

[wet breach]

see the javadocs even say to extend it if its not a JavaPlugin

[tender shard]

yes, that would be possible if you also write your own custom PluginLoader or sth

but spigot/bukkit never had any other plugin loaders besides the JavaPluginLoader

[remote swallow]

String joinMessage = message;
            for (Map.Entry entry : BungeeCoreSpigot.validNameValues().entrySet()) joinMessage.replace((String) entry.getKey(), (String) entry.getValue());
``` what would be the correct way of doing that, my brain isnt braining

[wet breach]

could you add a plugin.yml to that test jar

just don't add the main class

[wet breach]

lets fix this

[remote swallow]

im guessing i need a like += somewher

e

[wet breach]

yeah I am going to have to look into whatever changed

[tardy delta]

replace is not going to do anything on its own

[wet breach]

String joinMessage = message;
    for (Map.Entry entry : BungeeCoreSpigot.validNameValues().entrySet()) {
        joinMessage.replace((String) entry.getKey(), (String) entry.getValue());
}

[tender shard]

epic, shall I continue my blog post about ACF, or continue the spigot-plugin-archetype?

[tardy delta]

joinmessage = joinmessage.replace ?

[wet breach]

this right here

you can't modify a string

[tardy delta]

i thought i was hallucinating

[wet breach]

So because you can't modify strings

you have to use another String object to hold what you modified

[remote swallow]

depends, the acf stuff might be needed on the spigot plugin arch but the arch would be needed to come out so people know why the acf thing exists

so probably acf

[wet breach]

@tender shard watch it be a bug with baseplugin

and it has been there because no one uses it all that much lmao

[remote swallow]

isnt that the same thing as i sent?

[wet breach]

yes, I formatted it to make it easier to look at

[remote swallow]

ah'

[wet breach]

but fourteen answered it

[tardy delta]

not using {} 😠

[remote swallow]

i love my one liners

[wet breach]

#help-development message

[tardy delta]

i never know whether only the line following directly is executed or what

[remote swallow]

thnaks

no other line can be

because it doesnt know that that is its line

[tardy delta]

i used to do else try {}

[wet breach]

it executes whatever is after until it sees a ;

[tardy delta]

ah

[eternal night]

at least by skimming at bit, there has not been a single different loader than the JavaPluginLoader out there.
In the commit that the PluginBase was introduced in, SimplePluginManager already checked for plugin.yml and JavaPluginLoader enforces JavaPlugin as a parent type

I'll see if it was added anywhere else

[wet breach]

something changed somewhere because anything that was a pluginbase was not loaded up and was just a way to allow libs to exist in the plugin directory without the server complaining about it. Due to this, it wasn't required that it had a plugin.yml.

Either it is a bug right now

or the functionality changed

in either case not like people really used it anyways

[eternal night]

I mean, https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/commits/0a106995d2c79518cb8a3818dd565e6fbfec080a is the commit that introduced the type and at that point no plugin.yml would have already exploded

[tender shard]

PluginBase obviously was an idea to introduce a way to create non-java plugins but nobody ever wrote any different plugin loaders

[eternal night]

that would be my guess yea

[wet breach]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/commits/0a106995d2c79518cb8a3818dd565e6fbfec080a#src/test/java/org/bukkit/plugin/TestPlugin.java

[eternal night]

that is an in memory plugin

[wet breach]

so I guess it does need a plugin.yml just doesn't require specifying the main

[eternal night]

wat

[wet breach]

I will find it, where it changed

[tender shard]

that makes little sense

[wet breach]

or I will just wait for MD_5 later tonight

[eternal night]

okay 👍 it would have to be changed to and back

[tender shard]

basically the only reason why plugin.yml exists is to specify the main class

(yeah okay and name and version ofc)

[eternal night]

because the JavaPluginLoader required a JavaPlugin subtype

and that is the only loader, I don#t see what else would create the PluginClassLoader needed to attach a "lib jar" to the classpath

[wet breach]

no it being on the path as in in same directory

jars are on the path if they reside in the same directory as your application

due to how the JVM searches for it

[eternal night]

I-

[tender shard]

whut

[eternal night]

as I said, the server will complain about jars in the plugin directory if they are not valid plugins

you were talking about the plugin directory like, a few minutes ago

[wet breach]

I know

that hasn't changed

[eternal night]

Well, if you see md_5 down the line I guess ask them, I have no idea anymore what exactly you are talking about

[remote swallow]

@tender shard after almost 8 hours, join messages, chat formatting and it being mostly customizable is done. tomorrow i just have to add all the name varients and or their correct name or a hex for them

actually

8 hours

13 min

[tender shard]

nice

will check it out later

today

is it on the server alr?

[remote swallow]

on the lobby atm

just pushed it to github, lmk of anything you want changing or i could add

i couldnt be bothered to add all colour names earlier so for now purple is replaced with a hex, darkblue for dark_blue

[tender shard]

oki

[remote swallow]

ill add the rest when i wake up

[tender shard]

then next thing we need is to sync that PDC data (but only the simp/bungeecore tags) cross servers. either through mysql or redis

[wet breach]

you don't need a classloader for a lib to be used by plugins in the plugin directory, therefore anything that was a PluginBase didn't need to be loaded by the server and were left alone without the server complaining that they were not valid plugins and all that fun stuff. Anyways obviously it seems that functionality has since broke, and who knows for how long since obviously barely anyone uses it, except I guess myself every once in a while

[tender shard]

yes you do

the pluginclassloader is a URLClassLoader that only opens that one .jar file

[wet breach]

why would a lib need to be loaded by the server for plugins to use it?

[eternal night]

[remote swallow]

we could probably make a "better" pdc set/get/getOrDefault/remove method that just does that auto so we shouldnt need to change any extra code other than the main method calls

[tender shard]

where else would they come from, if not from the associated class loader?

[humble tulip]

maven shade plugin doesn't rename org.slf4j to my namespace

[eternal night]

i mean, I guess frost just used the fact that the classpath defaults to .

[tender shard]

the PluginClassLoader only checks in the plugin .jar file, or those loaded through the libraryclassloader associated to this plugin

[wet breach]

classloader is just one way to tell the JVM where something might be at, its not the only way the JVM knows how to load a dependency you are asking for. If the classloader doesn't know, the JVM will do a quick search to see if its in 3-4 key directories one being where the application was started, then the libs directory for the JVM, and the other directories but also for the JVM can't remember their name

[eternal night]

and hence the JVM would allow you to access .jar files in folder you start the server in

but like, that logic has absolutely nothing to do with PluginBase

the server logic never knows anything about these files

there is 0 points in having a PluginBase

[tender shard]

maybe the default classloader might do that. every plugin created by the SimplePluginManager get their own PluginClassLoader assocaited to it, though

[wet breach]

because its not meant to

[eternal night]

if you are just shoving the jars into a dir that is on the classpath

what is the point of PluginBase then

[wet breach]

does math require MC?

[eternal night]

no, but what is the point of PluginBase

[wet breach]

so the server didn't complain about it

[eternal night]

the server does not know about it

[wet breach]

also, you can implement your own PluginBase as well

[eternal night]

either you have it in the plugins folder and not the jvm classpath, then the server is responsible for loading it, which it uses the JavaPluginLoader for. This breaks for non JavaPlugin types even in the first commit PluginBase was added

or you have the jar on the classpath

at which point, the server will never complain about it

because it doesn't load it or interact with it

[wet breach]

if you add a jar to the plugins directory that doesn't have what it expects, it will complain about it, even if that jar is just a lib for a plugin to use

[eternal night]

if you add it to the plugins directory, the server would have to load it which it cannot do unless you have a JavaPlugin as the JavaPluginLoader requires it

it does so rn and it does so back in the first commit

[compact haven]

how "configurationserializable" is ItemStack

[eternal night]

maybe in between it didn't for a bit and now it does again ?

seems off tho

[compact haven]

will it serialize enchants & other item meta like potion effects?

[eternal night]

Yea

[wet breach]

as I said I will have to find where it changed because this was indeed a thing whether you believe me or not

[eternal night]

okay 👍

[wet breach]

I wouldn't have brought this up otherwise

[eternal night]

looking forward to it

[wet breach]

you will however have to possibly wait till I am off work tomorrow or when its my day off, depends how much time I have to search and what not when I get off work as I work 10 hour shifts lol

but I am curious as to why this changed so I will look

[eternal night]

ah no worries

[wet breach]

day off starts Friday morning 🙂

so I have the weekends lol

monday - thursday nights is when I work, and since that is 4 days, I work 10 hour shifts to get my guaranteed 40 hours 😄

[wooden hearth]

Hey, dose anyone know how to setup Lilypad?

[wet breach]

it doesn't work anymore

you can only use it for 1.7 and below

[river oracle]

tf is Lilypad

[wet breach]

its a proxy

like bungee

[river oracle]

oh what xD

no wonder I wasn't around back in those days

[wet breach]

lilypad is a proxy written in GO

[wooden hearth]

Only for 1.7 and below now? I can't even setup using ip's as it keeps saying java.net.BindException: Address not available

[wet breach]

the author abandoned it when 1.8 came out

[tender shard]

my bf has reported sick since 6 weeks now, and today he did it for another 2 weeks lol

[wet breach]

nice I guess?

[tender shard]

that means he's basically away from work since 2 months lol

[tender shard]

yes lol

[wet breach]

if I call out sick I have to use my PTO if I want to get paid, but downside is I don't get my shift differential pay

[humble tulip]

Used but slf4j still can't find any implementations to bind to. It works just fine when it's not relocated.

[wet breach]

well I don't know which version you are using, but regardless it doesn't work for versions beyond 1.7

lilypad required a plugin to be used as well on the server if I remember right

[humble tulip]

i have to relocate because some persons got an error with the plugin due to another plugin not having slf4j relocated

[quaint mantle]

hey is here i should ask for help or is it in help-server?

[humble tulip]

what ya need help with?

[wet breach]

what does your pom look like?

[humble tulip]

#help-server is for help with your server/plugin configuration

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[humble tulip]

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

[tender shard]

i always just shade slf4j-simple

            <artifactId>slf4j-simple</artifactId>
            <version>2.0.6</version>

[humble tulip]

i did

but when i relocate it i have issues

if i don't relocate it works fine

[tender shard]

just don't relocate it

are you using 1.16.5+?

[humble tulip]

^^

[tender shard]

are you using 1.16.5+?

[humble tulip]

no

[quaint mantle]

i asked my friend he knew its bc i want to set the rest of my server up alone bc i wanna learn to setup servers and idunno how so i did not ask him until now

[humble tulip]

You can ask for help in #help-server or on the forums. You can also look at youtube vids on how to setup servers

[quaint mantle]

yeha i looked at yt vids but there where none on the plugin i used so i did not really help

[tender shard]

where does that message come from? hikari?

[humble tulip]

yes

[fair panther]

Does anyone know the best way to setup bungeecord voting? I want rewards for each gamemode but when a player votes in a gamemode, it wont register in that server. Only the hub.

[tender shard]

can't you somehow tell hikari to use spigot's log4j logger? that should definitely be possible - SOMEHOW lol

[wet breach]

if you need to rename the service file, you need to use a transformer fyi

[tender shard]

or tell it about your relocated slf4j, idk but this should also be possible somehow. BUt i have no clue how, righ tnow

[humble tulip]

@wet breach

used a transformer

and it does rename the file

[molten hearth]

[156 1 0 153 1 123 34 101 110 102 111 114 99 101 115 83 101 99 117 114 101 67 104 97 116 34 58 102 97 108 115 101 44 34 100 101 115 99 114 105 112 116 105 111 110 34

[humble tulip]

um

wtf are u doing

convert to a byte[] and read it

[molten hearth]

?

why would I do that

[humble tulip]

what are u doing?

[molten hearth]

its already a []byte so

im just reading the response from a server

[humble tulip]

so you're imitating a client?

[molten hearth]

sure

[humble tulip]

or are you making a plugin and intercepting the packet?

[molten hearth]

im sending a request to a minecraft server to receive the server info

but I dont understand what the 156 1 are

[humble tulip]

like the motd etc?

[tender shard]

this is getting more and more cursed every day

[hazy parrot]

https://github.com/GoksiOrg/RemoteConsolePlugin/blob/main/src/main/java/org/slf4j/impl/SpigotAdapter.java i have done it like this

[molten hearth]

yeah

the response is

�☺�☺{"enforcesSecureChat":false,"description":{"text":"A Minecraft Server"},"players":{"max":20,"on...```

[humble tulip]

so here's what u do

private static final int SEGMENT_BITS = 0x7F;
private static final int CONTINUE_BIT = 0x80;
public int readVarInt() {
    int value = 0;
    int position = 0;
    byte currentByte;

    while (true) {
        currentByte = readByte();
        value |= (currentByte & SEGMENT_BITS) << position;

        if ((currentByte & CONTINUE_BIT) == 0) break;

        position += 7;

        if (position >= 32) throw new RuntimeException("VarInt is too big");
    }

    return value;
}

and call readVarInt on your byte[]

[molten hearth]

oh right I forgot the varint stuff

[humble tulip]

that will give you the length of the response

yep

all strings are prefixed by a varint of it's length

[humble tulip]

https://wiki.vg/Protocol#Status_Response

you may want to use this

[molten hearth]

I did read that but also its always confusing with the data types

[wet breach]

so I was reading up on it

[wet breach]

you need to depend on slf4j-api

[humble tulip]

huh?

[wet breach]

if you try to depend or impose a dependency that specifically targets a binding

[hazy parrot]

@humble tulip you can make hikari use spigot logger like this

[wet breach]

it won't work and you can't have more then one binding on the class path

if you have 2 bindings on the classpath it will just result in not using one

that is what I read from the manual lol

[humble tulip]

can you explain what a "binding" is?

[hazy parrot]

binding to slf4j facade

and using your logger as implementation

[humble tulip]

i see

[hazy parrot]

or spigot logger in this case

[wet breach]

https://www.slf4j.org/manual.html

https://www.slf4j.org/manual.html#swapping

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html

[molten hearth]

oof the library I was using read the response and converted it to []bytes before I did other reading

[wet breach]

lol

[humble tulip]

how does slf4j find a logger?

[wet breach]

through the serviceloader

[hazy parrot]

have to be on org/slf4j/impl class path

https://github.com/GoksiOrg/RemoteConsolePlugin/blob/main/src/main/java/org/slf4j/impl/SpigotLoggerFactory.java

[humble tulip]

ah

but won't that path change if i relocate it?

[wet breach]

or that way

[hazy parrot]

as frostalf said, you can have only one binding in class path

so if some other plugin do same thing, you will be in problem ig

[wet breach]

yeah, if you have 2 it simply won't choose one

and it will be as if there was none specified

[humble tulip]

but since the entire slf4j is relocated, won't it be considered separate?

[hazy parrot]

slf4j is just api

[humble tulip]

how will there be 2 bindings if i relocate it?

that's what i don't understand

[hazy parrot]

there wont be

if binding is not on org.slf4j.impl class path, it will not be used

you are relocating slf4j api if i saw right

have nothing to do with impl of facade

[humble tulip]

i think i understand

i'll just ignore this for now and work on the rest of my plugin in the meantime

[wet breach]

This is what the Devs of SLF4J have to say about bindings in libraries or frameworks

Basic rule Embedded components such as libraries or frameworks should not declare a dependency on any SLF4J binding/provider but only depend on slf4j-api. When a library declares a transitive dependency on a specific binding, that binding is imposed on the end-user negating the purpose of SLF4J. Note that declaring a non-transitive dependency on a binding, for example for testing, does not affect the end-user.

Embedded components such as libraries not only do not need to configure the underlying logging framework, they really should not do so. They should invoke SLF4J to log but should let the end-user configure the logging environment. When embedded components try to configure logging on their own, they often override the end-user's wishes. At the end of the day, it is the end-user who has to read the logs and process them. She should be the person to decide how she wants her logging configured. 

essentially you don't do it

[hazy parrot]

whoops

[wet breach]

So spigot should be the only application specifying the binding

everything else should abide by it

so, what you are trying to do is not impossible per-say

but also not supported as well lol

[primal goblet]

player#spigot#getHiddenPlayers is that will gives me when i use player#hidePlayer ?

[sullen marlin]

What do the docs say

But yes

[primal goblet]

i'll try it

[final monolith]

Gets a constraint violation using a maven compiled & shaded gson from different jars

[tender shard]

This is from the oracle docs about GridBagLayout. Do I have to worry about turning this into a constructor regarding this thread safety stuff, or does it matter whether something is in a constructor or method, regarding thread safety?

[final monolith]

Damn bro, i just wanna to add some libraries and do my plugins xD

[atomic swift]

i have this code and i get java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "org.bukkit.inventory.meta.ItemMeta.hasDisplayName()" because the return value of "org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack.getItemMeta()" is null even though that code isnt getting triggered and it will work if i have an item in my hand but if i dont nothing else will be parsed

            if (event.getPlayer().getEquipment().getItemInMainHand() !=null ||event.getPlayer().getEquipment().getItemInMainHand().getType() == Material.AIR) {
                ItemStack iteminhand = event.getPlayer().getEquipment().getItemInMainHand();
                msg=msg.replace("[item]", ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', "&7[&6&l" + 
                        (iteminhand.getItemMeta().hasDisplayName() ? 
                                iteminhand.getItemMeta().getDisplayName() :
                                    iteminhand.getType().toString()) + " &8" + iteminhand.getAmount()
                                    + "x&7]"));
                }

[tender shard]

btw the original method, and now my constructor, is doing nothing besides creating a JFrame, adding contents to it, packing it and setting it visible

[final monolith]

iteminhand.getItemMeta() is null

[atomic swift]

and the item is null

or AIR

[tender shard]

the item is not null, otherwise getItemMeta() would throw NPE

[final monolith]

this

[atomic swift]

i have no item

[tender shard]

why do you call getItemMeta() if you know that it's AIR? AIr can not have meta

just check if the item hasItemMeta()

[final monolith]

this²

[atomic swift]

the if stmt it stopping it tho

[tender shard]

no

you do this:

if item is not null or if item is air:
  do sth

instead of || item == air,
you should do

&& item != air

[final monolith]

lol its looks like skript

xD

[tender shard]

yeah lol

btw your IDE should actually shout at you for the if statement

[atomic swift]

still get an NPE

[atomic swift]

its not

[tender shard]

because the getType() == Material.AIR will NEVER be checked

[atomic swift]

the ide doesnt know that air is null

[tender shard]

then you have a shitty IDE

[tender shard]

but the IDE will know that getType() can only work when the ItemStack is not null

and if it's not null, then it would never check the second expression

[tender shard]

air is NOT null

AIR is a material

[atomic swift]

ovi

[final monolith]

whats your version?

[tender shard]

what does ovi even mean lol

[atomic swift]

1.18.2

[final monolith]

item.getType().isAir()

dont forget the CAVE_AIR...

[atomic swift]

of course

[final monolith]

ovi = of course? 🤔

[atomic swift]

ye

[final monolith]

🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

🤷‍♂️

[tender shard]

as I already said, just check it the other way around

        ItemStack iteminhand = event.getPlayer().getEquipment().getItemInMainHand();
        if (iteminhand != null && iteminhand.getType() != Material.AIR) {

check if it's != null AND != air

instead of checking if it's != OR == air

[final monolith]

ItemStack iteminhand = event.getPlayer().getEquipment().getItemInMainHand();
if (iteminhand != null && !iteminhand.getType().isAir()) {

please

CAVE_AIR exists 😢

[tender shard]

yes but not in your inventory

[final monolith]

dude breaked my arguments

im gonna cry now.

[tender shard]

I'd just check if hasItemMeta

[final monolith]

Material.CAVE_AIR

[tender shard]

        ItemStack iteminhand = event.getPlayer().getEquipment().getItemInMainHand();
        if (iteminhand != null && iteminhand.hasItemMeta()) {

there's a thousand ways to properly check this

[atomic swift]

ye like i could use a while (true) loop

[drowsy helm]

No

[final monolith]

lol

[atomic swift]

lol

[drowsy helm]

Please dont

[atomic swift]

i have before

[final monolith]

💀

[final monolith]

some maven pro could help me here?

[drowsy helm]

Is this for a spigot plugin

You dont have to shade gson

For plugins

[final monolith]

i need the most updated gson version

[drowsy helm]

It’s in spigot runtime

Ah

Try a relocate

[final monolith]

already

[drowsy helm]

Oh I think it’s just a versioning issue

[tender shard]

this simple gui took me half an hour lol

[drowsy helm]

What feature do you need from latest?

[drowsy helm]

Javafx be like

[tender shard]

?paste your whole pom, and also do mvn clean package -X and send the full log

[undone axle]

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

[humble tulip]

what's the point of that?

[tender shard]

it's swing

[drowsy helm]

Oh thats a bit better

Java ui libraries suck in general

[humble tulip]

wait is swing the jframe one?

[tender shard]

its gonna be a GUI for my maven archetype https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/spigot-plugin-archetype

[tender shard]

es

y

[humble tulip]

oo looks sick

multimodule :)?

pls pls pls

[tender shard]

I could ofc add that too

[humble tulip]

i hate having to setup modules

pls do

[tender shard]

however that involves some nasty groovy scripts if I don't wanna create a second archetype for multi module

[drowsy helm]

Maven multimodule is easy

[tender shard]

still annoying to setup

[drowsy helm]

Still no clue how to use gradle

[tender shard]

same lol

[humble tulip]

is there an easier way to set maven stuff without actually typing out my pom?

[tender shard]

archetypes

as said

[humble tulip]

ah

ok

[tender shard]

I can now setup a new project for 1.18.1 remapped including ACF, ProtocolLib and WorldGuard within 4 seconds lol

[humble tulip]

ig u can have a multimodule archetype

[tender shard]

just for example

[humble tulip]

i personally dont mind having 2 archetypes

[tender shard]

I just thought about it...

in 99.9% of cases, only the "core" module will need worldedit, worldguard, protocollib etc dependies right?

I mean, you wouldnt use worldedit in the version dependedant module

so the multi-module archetype could just use my existing one for the core module

with useNMS set to false

[humble tulip]

ye

[tender shard]

yeah easy

will do that tomorrow

first I'll finish this GUI thingy

if anyone has any ideas for useful dependencies i could add, please open an issue or PR

ir just tell me

whatever

[humble tulip]

how do i update intellij?

[tender shard]

using the jetbrains toolbox if you're on ultimate

[humble tulip]

and if not?

[tender shard]

otherwise it's in Help -> Check for updates I think

[humble tulip]

ty

[final monolith]

omg thats so weird

im getting a weird "error" now

maven shading sucks 💀

At the first jar

The same jar as a dependency

maybe if i use the same shadedPattern as pattern?

[tender shard]

ughm why do you do that

just dont add any relocation if you dont wanna relocate

[final monolith]

someone said me thats necessary for shading

[tender shard]

if you want to use gson in both things, then either shade it into the first one and use the shaded in the second one, or declare it as optional dependency

[tender shard]

hell nooo

[final monolith]

i will remove the relocations

and try

that seems to work

[tender shard]

to people who claim github copilot is useless - naaah it isnt

[final monolith]

but how i can test if the plugin is using the library from my jar not the spigot's runtime library?

[tender shard]

oh if you wanna make sure that you're using exactly what you shaded, when the same package already exists at runtime, then you indeed should relocate it

however, to a DIFFERENT package name

e.g. com.google.gson -> my.package.shaded.com.google.gson

[final monolith]

oh ok 🙂 thanks

[tender shard]

np!

[humble tulip]

wtf is going on?

[tender shard]

show your interface

[humble tulip]

gonna invalidata caches and restart

its public

[humble tulip]

works now

[tender shard]

weird IJ

yay the most important stuff is done, I can go to bed now

[final monolith]

lol its amazing

show more about that Spigot Version

[tender shard]

you can enter any string there. if you accidentally use 1.19.0, it uses the correct 1.19. For everything above 1.17, it automatically uses mojang mappings and adds the remapping stuff.

[final monolith]

what about a select box?

with all versions

[tender shard]

this is also true for dependencies - if you add WorldEdit/WorldGuard, it uses latest version 7.x, if you're on 1.12 and below, it uses the latest version for those versions

[tender shard]

I could do that, but then I'd have to update it for every new release

maybe I'll make a middle thing - it has some versions you can select, but you can also enter anything you like

[final monolith]

🤔

what about connecting it to a online server

with all these versions

[tender shard]

it's basically just a frontend for mvn archetype:generate

[final monolith]

its a fixed size?

i mean setResizable(false)?

[tender shard]

resizable

it's a GridBagLayout

[final monolith]

Amazing

im doing a new type of layout for my application that auto resizes all components to the frame's size

like...

100x100 frame contains 50x50 components
if i resize to 50x50 (the frame), components will be resized to 25x25

[gleaming grove]

would you add option to generate project with Gradle?

[rotund ravine]

Just use the mcdev plugin for IJ i guess. I personally just use a github template

[gleaming grove]

right, for all of this years I've been blind there is actual option for gradle

[river oracle]

this is a good idea

[buoyant viper]

wtfrik

what this

[tender shard]

not possible

gradle doesn't have archetypes

it's just a frontend for mvn archetype:generate using my spigot-plugin-archetype: https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/spigot-plugin-archetype

[tender shard]

see here ^

[buoyant viper]

dam

[buoyant viper]

just store a template build.gradle files in the jar

[tender shard]

that would not be very flexible lol

naaah gradle users chose the hard lives themselves

[hexed falcon]

what would i put as the teleport location?

[tender shard]

the location where you wanna teleport to?

[hexed falcon]

well that would be 100 blocks in the direction i just raycasted but i don't have that location because the raycast hit nothing so therefore there's no block.

[rotund ravine]

Why are you raytracing twice

@hexed falcon

[hexed falcon]

good question

[rotund ravine]

There’s these things

[hexed falcon]

thankyou

[quaint mantle]

?paste

[undone axle]

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

[quaint mantle]

well im getting this error https://paste.md-5.net/rigicetada.sql

heres the code

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

any ideas?

[rotund ravine]

Give us the first error when the plugin is loaded

Also that code is useless

[quaint mantle]

right holdon

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

[rotund ravine]

DctrSpaceHelmCMD.spacehelm is null

[tender shard]

I don't think I'm using these futures right lol

[rotund ravine]

Looks fine

Have you checked out taskchain by aikar if it’s a plugin?

[tender shard]

no, but it's a standalone GUI app anyway

so I guess that won't help me 🥲

I think I'm using the futures wrong because e.g. when the extract fails in lines 50-57, then I throw an exception. Fine, but then it would still go the the next whenComplete in line 58. Ofc I could just check there if the "throwable" is null, but it seems kinda stupid to have to double-check this everytime. Isn't there something like "whenCompleteWithoutExceptionOrElsePropagateException(...)" or sth?

[quaint mantle]

oh

[rotund ravine]

There is a different way to use futures so it will do it properly, but I haven’t slept in a lot of hours so i will sleep now gl.

[tender shard]

Me too, good night!

[onyx blade]

Hey, I was wondering if someone has an answer for me.

If I have the same spigot plugin running on separate servers and I am running bungeecord.

Can I send a forward message via sendPluginMessage and have a PluginMessageListener in the same plugin receive the message?

so Server A sends the message and Server B will receive it?

[worldly ingot]

You're looking for thenAccept()

thenAccept() accepts the result of the previous stage but only runs if no exception was thrown. Then at the end you can handle exceptionally(), which runs only if an exception was thrown and returns a new result

.startDownload().thenAccept(file -> {
    downloadDialog.setText("Extracting mvn.zip");
    logger.info("Downloaded Maven binary zip to " + file.getAbsolutePath() + ". Extracting...");

    try (ZipFile zipFile = new ZipFile(file)) {
        zipFile.extractAll(DATA_FOLDER.getAbsolutePath());
    } catch (IOException e) {
        throw new CompletionException("Could not extract Maven binary zip", e);
    }

    if (!file.delete()) {
        throw new IOException("Could not delete " + file.getAbsolutePath());
    }

    if (!new File()) { // Your maven thingy thing
        throw new IOException("Could not rename " /* etc. */);
    }

    downloadDialog.dispose();
    logger.info("Done");
});```

Then the caller can handle the exception if they want via .whenComplete() or .exceptionally(), but really Alex, all of your whenComplete() statements could be merged into just one statement

[buoyant viper]

ZipFile#extractAll?! thats a thing?!

[worn tundra]

😭

Are you fr

Oh no nvm its not

[lavish hemlock]

It's from Zip4j

[buoyant viper]

o

[lavish hemlock]

I'd honestly recommend using NIO FileSystems for zip stuff, though

It's just more convenient since you can use Path as opposed to ZipEntry

The main issue is just that it's kind of hard to figure out how to get it to work?

[topaz cape]

bump

[tawdry echo]

How can i check if player connect using premium acoount

[lofty laurel]

if (!sign.getLine(3).equals("&5$6,000.00")) {
    event.getPlayer().sendMessage("test");
    return;
}``` have this for debugging and it sends test when i right click the sign. even tho the 4th line is set to that value

[tawdry echo]

You count from 0

3 is 4th line

[lofty laurel]

yes which is right

[hybrid spoke]

because the lines are 0 indexed

[topaz cape]

you too read the entire message

wait

i didn't understand the entire message

i did read just brain skill issue

[hybrid spoke]

no wait then you are right.

it shouldnt print test then, we are all blind

[hybrid spoke]

its probably because of your &5 which should be §5

[lofty laurel]

yeah thats what im testing rn

[topaz cape]

yes

that's what i meant first time

my brain

i forgot the § isn't & for a while there

[lofty laurel]

i always forget about the section sign since im so used to using the ampersand symbol lol

ah yes works now

ty

[topaz cape]

ChatColor#translateAlternativeColorCodes

[topaz cape]

bumping a bump

[tardy delta]

you can always strip color

[topaz cape]

what does that have to do with anything smh

[tardy delta]

strip the colors and compare it with a normal string

[humble tulip]

@topaz cape print the channels after

To make sure yours is there

@topaz cape

Does the client time out after a while?

Sending the player a message means you send a packet which means you send a message which means you send a packet and on and on

Print to console instead

[ashen quest]

How do i place a schematic file from code?

[humble tulip]

Using fawe?

[ashen quest]

O I need to use their api?

[remote swallow]

dont use fawe

use normal world edit

[ashen quest]

o

ty

[humble tulip]

Who even uses normal worldedit?

[remote swallow]

all of us that dont want world exceptions

[humble tulip]

??

What are you talking abt?

[ashen quest]

what does fawe do differently from we

[remote swallow]

fawe = fast async world exception

fawe corruptes worlds

[ashen quest]

damn

ty

[buoyant viper]

they should call it FAWC

fast async world corruption

[humble tulip]

Why all the fawe hate?

[remote swallow]

fast async world exception

but yes

that would be amazing

[remote swallow]

it corrupts wordls

[buoyant viper]

it corrupts the soul 🧠 👁️

[livid dove]

2 questions:

-can you get a snapshot of a chunk without loading it

-whats the easiest way to find all tile entities in a snapshot as the method does not exist unfortunately

I am going to get the white whale that is "deleting every item of a certain type from the map from every chest" 😅

[humble tulip]

I'm pretty sure I said this before

Are you still trying to remove the items?

[livid dove]

You see you say thst but I've not seen one example of someone actually doing it

And yes

And I assume edit it,

Exactly

[humble tulip]

https://github.com/PowerNukkit/Region-Manipulator

[livid dove]

[humble tulip]

Ur gonna have to also look at this https://github.com/PowerNukkit/NBT-Manipulator

Using those paired with a nbt viewer u shpuld be able to figure out how to delete your items

[livid dove]

My gosh this is gonna be a slog haha

This is what happens when people ruin the economy haha

Got over 30mil of gold blocks knocking around haha

[remote swallow]

why would you choose gold blocks lol

been as gold farms, duping, ect ect

[livid dove]

Gold ingots and the players are storing em as blocks.

We have an anti dupe system too

[humble tulip]

Am i not bri ish enf to know what slog means?

[remote swallow]

shat ap chicken dipper

thats enough time

[humble tulip]

You can get this done in 2-3 hrs

[livid dove]

Also have a big list of reworks to do lemme get the list lol

https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Chunk_format

Get chunks

[undone axle]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot

[unkempt shuttle]

can anyone assist I need help with setting the chat format on my plugin

[humble tulip]

Get nbt compoint

[livid dove]

-Operation OreRework / wipe
-Biome rework
-Portal implementation and Spawn rework to accommodate (Build Team + @RazielMartelus96 )
-XP rework (fishing, mining , furnaces) )

• Work with Lore team to make an event for the release and wipe! (Lore team based , in progress / 80% done)
  -Upkeep Rework ( @RazielMartelus96 )
  -Finishing anti exploit / economy observation tool ( @RazielMartelus96 )
  -Find a cure for male pattern baldness (cause you know, im already pulling 5-10 miracles out of my ass, @RazielMartelus96 )

[unkempt shuttle]

when I set the format and send a message

[humble tulip]

Then get block_entities

[unkempt shuttle]

in console it appears with the message but not the format just the message

no username

[humble tulip]

Show code

[unkempt shuttle]

e.setFormat("%s:%s");

[16:44:27 INFO]: s

#help-server message

yes

ik

but the format in console does not appear

• I don't think you should use event.getMessage() in that

because you can use %s %s

[remote swallow]

because the message would double up

[topaz cape]

aight

[remote swallow]

yes

i was using it yesterday

[humble tulip]

Yes

[unkempt shuttle]

besides the point the format just doesn't exist in my console and no one else has this issue so idk what to do

[remote swallow]

use "%2$s" as the message

[unkempt shuttle]

Yes

[remote swallow]

yes

[unkempt shuttle]

yes

[remote swallow]

yes

[humble tulip]

If you set the format to include the msg and another plugin mdofies the msg

Wtf is gonna happem

:/

[unkempt shuttle]

and %1$s for player

[humble tulip]

Um

[remote swallow]

yeah, you can also use event.getplayer()

[humble tulip]

It's a format

[unkempt shuttle]

true

[humble tulip]

It's not supposed to include the message

[unkempt shuttle]

the default format works though like I can see my username in console without setting the format

but whenever I set the format to anything like e.setFormat("%s:%s"); it just wont appear it will only show the message

[humble tulip]

Yeah sure but when you create a chat filter plugin in the next 10 mnths and can't figure why it isn't censoring words you'll feel pretty stupid

[remote swallow]

inb4 you will

[unkempt shuttle]

you will

[humble tulip]

Ok smartass

[unkempt shuttle]

I can't figure out this bloody problem man anyone know any possible solutions?

its been 2 hours

no

e.setFormat("%s:%s");

my laptop will go flat

[undone axle]

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

[unkempt shuttle]

its legit just that

in a class

I know what pastebin is

or hastebin that makes your text disappear

[remote swallow]

thats md5bin (totally real)

[livid dove]

Oooo what about a cheat. Rather Rather mucking about with nbts.

Everytime a chunk is entered by a player it checks if the chunk has been given a "already been cleaned" tag (or some sort of list in a db or yml) if it hasn't, wipe it of the items and add the tag.

Should be a lot less demanding right?

[unkempt shuttle]

did you ever face this issue?

[remote swallow]

chunks have pdc

[unkempt shuttle]

where it wouldn't show the username in console while setting chat format

[remote swallow]

i had it show the name in console and no message

[unkempt shuttle]

hm

[remote swallow]

replacing my message placeholder with %2$s fixed it somehow

[unkempt shuttle]

weird anyway i'll have to debug it more later and my mind would go insane

[remote swallow]

thats why you parse stuff before you add itin

[unkempt shuttle]

yes the chat format works

[remote swallow]

and placeholder api only cares about %%

[unkempt shuttle]

in game

just not in console it only displays the message no username

[humble tulip]

%1$s:%2$s

Try

Ohh it works ingame

[unkempt shuttle]

yeah i did that

[humble tulip]

That's gonna be more demanding

[unkempt shuttle]

ik its weird i'll setup a blank server and make a plugin for it see what happens

[humble tulip]

You can clean all the chunks while the server is offlime

[humble tulip]

And create a bug report

[unkempt shuttle]

could be something interfering but if not i will

[livid dove]

It is just honestly the stress of it ngl. Got 30 exams to mark this week too and would rather dip me toes in somewhere I'm confident haha

[humble tulip]

It isn't hard to read nbt

But up to you ig

I can do it if u pay me 🙂

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/connecting-to-databases-mysql/

[livid dove]

Its having the confidence every single gold item in every single container of every single type (barrel, furnace , shulkers in chests etc) are all wiped clean of this item yknow?

Needs to be fool proof and absolute

[humble tulip]

Yep

Nbt is absolute

[livid dove]

But it's having the sanity check that it worked you get me?

[humble tulip]

You can do whatever you want

Directly modifying the mca files is the best way to go

[livid dove]

i gave that line only

there is no err in code

the same code works in another plugin

[tender shard]

it was 6am and I knew it was shitty, idk why I came up with these chained things lol

thenAccept is was what I was looking for, thanks!

[tender shard]

hewwo

[tender shard]

yeah it's 14:10

[remote swallow]

oh god its 1pm already

[hybrid spoke]

2*

[quaint mantle]

Why???

[tardy delta]

hover over it

its String[] args not int[]

[quaint mantle]

thx <3

[iron palm]

why am i getting this error on maven reload ?

'java.util.Collection org.jetbrains.idea.maven.server.MavenServerEmbedder.resolveProject(java.util.Collection, java.util.Collection, java.util.Collection, org.jetbrains.idea.maven.server.security.MavenToken)'```

[tender shard]

that's at best a tiny part of the whole error

why don't you send the full stacktrace

[iron palm]

maybe bc thats all?

[remote swallow]

doubt

[tender shard]

it's not

you just have to open the full log

whats chest manager

[wet breach]

if its a double chest don't you need only one side to set it open?

if I had to guess it would be left side for that

[remote swallow]

does markAsOpened just track what chests are open?

[wet breach]

sorry I read your question wrong

thought you were trying to set the chest as opened

XD

[remote swallow]

sysout the location, it might be that which is off

[vale ember]

but double chest class doesn't implement block state. how would instanceof check pass?

state instanceof DoubleChest doubleChest

[tender shard]

check if it's instanceof Chest. If yes, check if the Holder is instanceof DoubleChest

[vale ember]

cast it to chest, get block inventory and then holder ig

[tender shard]

obviously not, but on Container. Which Chest extends

if(blockState instanceof Chest chest) {
  if(chest.getHolder() instanceof DoubleChest doubleChest) {
    // it's a double chest

null check isn't needed btw

[vale ember]

there aint getHolder on chest

[tender shard]

oh yeah then you also have to get the inventory, then get the holder

[wet breach]

why are doing an instanceof on a block with blockstate?

[tender shard]

do NOT use getBLockInventory(), but just getInventory

[wet breach]

shouldn't it be if (block instanceof Chest chest)

[tender shard]

        if(blockState instanceof Chest chest) {
            if(chest.getInventory().getHolder() instanceof DoubleChest doubleChest) {

this should finally be correct lol

getBlockInventory() would only return the inventory of this single chest, while getInventory() should return the combined inv

from "Chest" interface

[vale ember]

should i use bukkit logger or console sender to print out update info?

[tender shard]

it's actually more or less the same

I use the logger if it's an automatic message. if the console / admin manually checks for updates, I use the command sender

in the console, both looks the same though

so I guess it doesnt matter

[vale ember]

k thx

[primal goblet]

i have 1vs1 (Duels) game, and i need to make a map system to generate the selected arena for the players what the best idea for this situation?
(without worldedit)

[tender shard]

oh wait https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/Spigot-UpdateChecker/blob/master/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/updatechecker/UpdateChecker.java

I do use the ConsoleSender, and not the logger

huh whatever, it doesnt matter

[primal goblet]

🥲

[tender shard]

Structure API

[primal goblet]

can you provide me a link? cuz its my first time hearing this api

[tender shard]

Its part of bukkit

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/structure/Structure.html

[primal goblet]

is this will work with spigot 1.8.x?

[tender shard]

Ofc not

It was added when structure blocks got added

[primal goblet]

i have an idea but idk if this will kill the server memory..

i have an map contains all the arenas and this folder is made like a template
so when a player duels other player the map (template) copies the files to other directory with dummy name like asda_123213213
and load the world then teleport the players and when the game ends i delete the world
@tender shard do u think its a good solution?

[vale ember]

is using Plugin#getDescription#getVersion in async task thread-unsafe? ik it says that i shouldn't use any bukkit api in async tasks but this cases seems questionable

[lethal knoll]

Is there an interface for mobs being sizeable ?

[vale ember]

wdym sizeable?

[lethal knoll]

Well, I would need a simple way to check if a mob can be resized

[primal goblet]

yeah thats will work normal but the players may play the same arena so i have to duplicate the arena many times, i tried but i don't found the best solution.. @last temple

[lethal knoll]

such as a giant, slime, magma cube, etc

[remote swallow]

im pretty sure only a slime can

giant is a different mob to a zombie

[lethal knoll]

Hmm

Phantom also has it it seems

[vale ember]

yeah indeed but all of those methods are declared directly in interfaces, so no

[lethal knoll]

Well yea, in that case, it's only 2 mobs, I can just type check it

That's unfortunate, but yea, for just 2 mobs it wouldn't make sense

Aight, thanks

[remote swallow]

collectiont thing?

[hasty prawn]

You're allowed to re-create anything afaik

As long as you're not straight up yoinking their exact code

[hybrid spoke]

the whole design is minecraft anyways

[hasty prawn]

I mean they probably could send you a cease and desist I suppose but Hypixel probably doesn't care lol

[hybrid spoke]

how could they

as long as they have no patent on that

which i doubt

you are gtg

[remote swallow]

unless they copyrighted or trademarked it they cant

[hasty prawn]

Who knows if they have though

It's a possibility

[remote swallow]

check their website

[hybrid spoke]

just steal it, put a patent on it and sue tf out of them

[remote swallow]

they probably have to disclose it

[hasty prawn]

I mean that's usually the motive behind most copyright claims but it doesn't have to be

[hybrid spoke]

more like they would only care if you would earn money with it

[slow arrow]

whats the point of Enchantment.getStartLevel()?

don't all enchantments start at level 1?

[remote swallow]

custom enchants maybe

[slow arrow]

yea, im doing that right now
i just saw that and it confused me

I can't think of any use case for that lmao

[remote swallow]

if soem custom enchant starts at like level 234

[slow arrow]

ikr

[hasty prawn]

Someone must've just been bored when they added that lol

[slow arrow]

"ah, yes. Let's throw this versatility in there to confuse the developers"

[keen mantle]

Any good websites where you can learn java basics for free?

[slow arrow]

codecademy
w3schools
youtube tutorials

[eternal oxide]

?learnjava

[undone axle]

Here are some links to get you started on learning Java:

• https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-java
• https://www.sololearn.com/learning/1068
• 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.

[slow arrow]

oo fancy

i concede

[remote swallow]

?stacktrace i made imajin add this yesterday

[undone axle]

We cannot help without the full stacktrace; Please paste it here: https://paste.md-5.net

[keen mantle]

for codeacademy thanks

[hasty prawn]

[keen mantle]

yt tutorials be like: lets learn what is variable, after 5 hours, lets learn what is class

[hybrid spoke]

make him add ?paste! and ?paste!! and ?paste!!!

?gtfo

and this

[keen mantle]

w3 is good for revising instead

[remote swallow]

maybe in future

[keen mantle]

thnx to a dude who sent about codeacademy seems to be good learning website

[tender shard]

YT tutorials are a joke

[keen mantle]

fr

[tender shard]

I also love how they spend half an hour installing intelliJ

like fr, people who want to learn coding should at least know how to install a program

[slow arrow]

true

[keen mantle]

all stuff java basics yt tuts told me, is known by me like 5 years ago from school computer classes

[hybrid spoke]

lets make an official SpigotMC programming tutorial series

i think its better to learn java basics first than going into spigot api

[hasty prawn]

It is
