/data get entity UUID

[tender shard]

or just use selectors

[wet breach]

can't use name if they are offline because MC doesn't store player data by name but by UUID

the name is only relevant if they are online

[rotund ravine]

It’s offline right?

[smoky oak]

yea

[rotund ravine]

Where did you get that uuid

[smoky oak]

from the join message

[rotund ravine]

Ah

[smoky oak]

'uuid of player is'

hm

[wet breach]

think you need to add entity in there?

[smoky oak]

data get entity uuid just prints out 'entity not found'

[wet breach]

hence it saying incorrect argument

hmmm

[smoky oak]

do you know if i can fake the command using the offlinePlayer -> player copy of the player?

I'm interested in the data printout @wet breach

[rotund ravine]

What

[smoky oak]

dis

just for offline

[rotund ravine]

Can’t u use @p?

[smoky oak]

offline

[wet breach]

does using storage instead of entity work?

[smoky oak]

says contents:{}

which imma doubt

[rotund ravine]

An offlineplay is still a player yes?

[smoky oak]

dont think so

[wet breach]

via the api yes

[rotund ravine]

Then think again

[wet breach]

native mc has no concept of an offline player

[smoky oak]

the storage thing prints out {} for everything i give it btw

so i dont think thats linked to uuid

[wet breach]

interesting

well, if you want you could obtain most of that info you want via the api

using OfflinePlayer or reading the player dat file in question

player dat files are named by uuid

[smoky oak]

yea true

do they contain the name of their last join btw?

[wet breach]

yes

[rotund ravine]

Well

If the name changes the uuid changes on offline

[opal carbon]

thats how that "_ joined the game (previously _)" works if uve seen that before

[rotund ravine]

Won’t get that on offline

[wet breach]

the name they last used is stored in the dat file until they join again and if their name is different it will upate upon a world save or when they disconnect

[opal carbon]

well yeah

[wet breach]

so, that means as long as they are still offline you have at minimum last known name

[opal carbon]

but offline mode is a special case because its wierd as hell

[smoky oak]

uuid doesnt change if the name does

its how we uniquely identify after all

[rotund ravine]

It does on offline

[smoky oak]

no it doesnt

[rotund ravine]

Are you fumb

[wet breach]

I think you are confusing offline mode with offline player

they are not doing anything in offline mode

[opal carbon]

offline mode it does

[rotund ravine]

Ohhh

[wet breach]

rather offline players

[rotund ravine]

Thought we were talking about offlinemode

My bdd

[opal carbon]

no we arent

offline mode is dumb and a pain to deal with ngl

[rotund ravine]

Yes

Never touching that

[wet breach]

I just don't support or implement offline mode in anything 🙂

[opal carbon]

exactly

[rotund ravine]

All i know is that the uuid is like UUID.fromString(“OfflinePlayer:” + name) or smth on offlinemode

[opal carbon]

if the plugin breaks because of offline mode fucking with shit oh well

[smoky oak]

all I know is that it eats your inventory

[rotund ravine]

Haha it does cause uuid changes

I wonder what’s the changes of a player having the same uuid online and offline

[wet breach]

UUID in offline mode is derived from parsing their name as string into the UUID constructor

[wet breach]

this is not possible

offline UUID uses version 3 of the UUID where as Mojang uses version 4 for online mode

[smoky oak]

isnt that still the same format

[wet breach]

no

[smoky oak]

im pretty sure only the generation is different

yea its different generators

[rotund ravine]

Ye it’s UUID.nameUUIDFromBytes(("OfflinePlayer:" + player).getBytes(UTF_8))

[wet breach]

its not, it has a big difference in how the UUID is calculated

[smoky oak]

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20342058/which-uuid-version-to-use
same format, different way of calculation
so technically if you got stupid lucky MC's uuid V4 could be the same as ur offline uuid

[wet breach]

so it isn't possible for an online player to have the same UUID if they are in offline mode. This was done purposefully to avoid collisions in the event the server was put in offline mode and had online mode players

[wet breach]

its not possible

[smoky oak]

statistically unlikely != impossible

[slender elbow]

it is literally impossible

[wet breach]

^

[slender elbow]

like actually, literally impossible, not mathematically unlikely, mathematically impossible

[rotund ravine]

Well that seems false

Just cause there is an infinitely small chance for it to happen doesn’t mean it can’t

[slender elbow]

no

literally impossible

not unlikely

[smoky oak]

v4 UUIDs, which contain 122 bits of randomness is very much equal an 1/(2^122) chance to have the same uuid online and offline

thats what RANDOM means

[wet breach]

V4 incorporates a time element

[smoky oak]

thats v1 not v4?

do they both have that?

[wet breach]

V3 does not have this

[rotund ravine]

Guess you just gotta be blessed by the time god too then

[slender elbow]

even then, the version of a UUID is determined by a specific byte, if it's version 4, it is set 4, if it's version 3, that byte is set to 3, i think we can agree that 3 cannot collide with 4

they literally cannot collide when the version byte is always different between the two

[rotund ravine]

I see now that makes sende

Sense

[slender elbow]

not unlikely, but impossible

[wet breach]

there is that, other then that both calaculate UUID's significantly differently

[slender elbow]

not even a byte, but half a byte lol

[wet breach]

so a nibble

[tender shard]

you can easily load the .dat file of offline players

[slender elbow]

funny word

[smoky oak]

yea i since then realized, thanks tho

[chilly hearth]

Pros here

Yo alec

Alex*

I was just stuck how to get an speicifx player head in itemstack

Or if there is any other way

[wet breach]

look at the item meta

[tender shard]

this is how to load a player .dat file https://github.com/JEFF-Media-GbR/JeffLib/blob/master/nms/1.20.1/src/main/java/com/jeff_media/jefflib/internal/nms/v1_20_1/NMSHandler.java#L420

[chilly hearth]

By specific I mean there texture

[tender shard]

basically you just do NbtIo.readCompressed

[chilly hearth]

Like an iron golem head

[tender shard]

SkullMeta#setOwningPlayer

or do you mean base64 textures?

[chilly hearth]

Yes

[tender shard]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/creating-custom-heads-in-spigot-1-18-1/

[chilly hearth]

Ty

[smoky oak]

man you have everything dont u

[wet breach]

well a good portion of us have probably done many things most come here for help with 😛

[tender shard]

lol I needed it to get offlineplayer's PDC

[smoky oak]

isnt that just

uuid -> offline player -> player -> PDC

[tender shard]

[torn shuttle]

chip away at making plugins for long enough and you'll eventually have done everything

[tender shard]

getPlayer() returns null on offline players

[smoky oak]

im pretty sure you can cast it

[tender shard]

sure, you can cast null to anything

[carmine mica]

🤦‍♂️

[smoky oak]

i meant

[tender shard]

trust me, you cannot get a Player object from an offline player just by casting it

[smoky oak]

im fairly certain Player player = (Player) getOfflinePlayer(uuid) worked in a plugin i did like 2 years ago

[tender shard]

no

[carmine mica]

It works for online players

[tender shard]

yes

[carmine mica]

But not for offline players

[tender shard]

if it'd actually work for offline players, there'd be no point in having an OfflinePlayer interface in the first place

[wet breach]

you have to do some fancy magic to get a Player object from an offline player object if they are not online

its doable, just a pain to do

[tender shard]

public Player getOnlinePlayer(OfflinePlayer offlinePlayer) {
  while(!(offlinePlayer instanceof Player)) {
    offlinePlayer = offlinePlayer.getPlayer();
  }
  return offlinePlayer;
}

^^ very useful

[lilac dagger]

i got it

😄

there's some optimization that triggered this call

[torn shuttle]

I don't even know why I'm making a python interface to poke at chatgpt

[wet breach]

just remove the l there and its a good name

[torn shuttle]

this is not what I should be doing

has anyone made a chatgpt plugin yet

[lilac dagger]

nah

[tender shard]

https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/minecraftgpt-gpt-3-5-4-openai.107128/

[torn shuttle]

mhyeah makes sense

shame api calls are so expensive

this is me not even using it, just poking the api to test responses as I make software around it

[pulsar parcel]

I'm trying to use nms to make player spectate entity, but when I use this code I get an error for playerConnection. Am I doing it right?

[pulsar parcel]

and version is 1.19.2

[smoky oak]

add parenthesis

im pretty sure playerConnection is supposed to be a getter

[wet breach]

any reason why you need to do this via NMS?

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/entity/Player.html#setSpectatorTarget(org.bukkit.entity.Entity)

[pulsar parcel]

oh really? I didn't find that, thx

[wet breach]

just make sure to set the player to spectator mode first before using that method

[tender shard]

the field is called "connection"

?switchmappings

[undone axle]

https://blog.jeff-media.com/switching-from-spigot-mappings-to-mojang-mappings/

[wet breach]

seems they didn't realize there was an api method for what they want 😛

or just didn't find it

[tender shard]

oh yeah

why is helpch.at missing javadocs for 1.19.4 and 1.20 🥲

[lilac dagger]

alex, do you have support for multi modules in aliatory?

like support for classes per module?

[tender shard]

aliatory?

classes per module?

I really have no clue what you're asking about tbh lol

[twilit basalt]

Hey, I have a plugin there which is extended by another class, in core plugin I load this plugin but it is not instance of that another class, any ideas how to fix this? It worked though

[flint coyote]

I don't understand your problem

[twilit basalt]

What you don't understand? I load plugin (addon) with my core plugin, but it is not instance of another class which extends it

[grizzled oasis]

I know support for older versions is not given but something to ask about Durability, with damage i can make a texture linked with an item if i use a pickaxe, damage will not damage and show up on the item, or its separate? im talking about 1.12 so custom data model do not exist (found out yes)

[flint coyote]

So you have Class B extends A

and when you do
if(bInstance instanceof A) it returns false?

[grizzled oasis]

i saw a method really good by a Core (Mechanics) that loads the addons like a plugin normally but only make sure it gets run by the core so the dependency is respected

[twilit basalt]

I have AbstractAddon extends JavaPlugin, in that addon I extend AbstractAddon class

[lilac dagger]

where you can apply certain libs over certain classes

[twilit basalt]

but it is not instance of AbstractAddon

[twilit basalt]

?

[grizzled oasis]

https://github.com/Wuason6x9/mechanics/blob/master/src/main/java/dev/wuason/mechanics/Mechanics.java look a this code and its really simple their system for addons, the only thing it make sure its like the plugin loads so it has the classes to use (addon example: https://github.com/Wuason6x9/StorageMechanics)

[twilit basalt]

seems like something bit different

[wet breach]

damage and durability are two different things

[twilit basalt]

I have these addons in pluginName/addons/

[vast raven]

Hi, does anyone know how to get the ICrafting instance of a player starting from the EntityPlayer? In 1.16_R3 the EntityPlayer class implements the ICrafting interface, but in 1.17_R2 it does not.

[grizzled oasis]

inside the wiki there's a page that explains, how to use older textures and the problems with that the items gets damaged to show it, but another way i round i think i found its by using optifine

[wet breach]

damage value is just another way to state extra data

unless you are not talking about damage values

and instead actual damage

[grizzled oasis]

the same applies in older version for the glass / glass_panels

[wet breach]

ah then I think you are talking about damage value then

reason we call it damage value for those interested is because the item doesn't change and looks like the rest but it isn't treated as being different as if its damaged 😉

or it slightly changes

and thus now damaged lol

but its just a fancy way of saying extra data values

[grizzled oasis]

Cit (Optifine system) works inside server uses names (i know the client doesn't know nbt from other users)

[vast raven]

Maybe would it be useful get the player's container?

[trim lake]

Hi, I just need to change inventory title in my plugin. But problem is there is not method for that in 1.18.2 (I think). How can I do that properly? Im just making kit plugin and after every click (probably) I would like to check if some items in inventory are same as items in kit. If not change title. But something is canceling InventoryClickEvent for me every time even if I set setCancelled to false.
Code:

public void handleMenu(InventoryClickEvent e) {
        ItemStack item = e.getCurrentItem();
        Player p = (Player) e.getWhoClicked();
        int slots = getRows()*9;
        int slot = e.getRawSlot();
        if (slot > 8 && slot < slots-9) {
            p.sendMessage("not canceled");
            e.setCancelled(false);
        }
        if (!e.getView().getTopInventory().equals(e.getClickedInventory())) {
            p.sendMessage("not canceled");
            e.setCancelled(false);
        }
        saveKitItems();
        inv.clear();
        open();

public void open() {
        inv = Bukkit.createInventory(this, getRows()*9, ChatUtils.format(getTitle()));
        setDefaultItems();
        setMenuItems();
        owner.openInventory(inv);
    }

Or is there anothrey way where I dont need to open another inventory for player?

[quiet ice]

I think you can change the title via the respective view?

[simple schooner]

One more question, how would I get the 3x3x3 area surrounding the minion?

[trim lake]

InventoryView? Nah you cant in 1.18.

[simple schooner]

I have been thinking of this all day but I just can't seem to get any solutions

I may be dumb

Do I have to use a for loop or somethiny?

[knotty shell]

Can anyone explain what 'display' is, in entity-tracking-range, for spigot.yml

[rare rover]

how can i fix this?: https://paste.md-5.net/povifabiha.sql

[tender shard]

with a 3 nested loop?

for int x = -1; x <= block.getX() + 1, x++

same for y and z

[ripe moat]

how do i add subtitles to a player and only display it to certain players?

[tender shard]

then block.getRelative(x,y,z)

[simple schooner]

I was right

I just dont know how to implement it lol

Im so bad at math

[maiden geode]

Hello,
I've ran into one issue with my world creation method, which is simply creating a void world for islands to be created. The world is used for different tasks and it always shows "null", I can't teleport to the world as well, it just throws an error (null, couldn't find the world). Will appreciate any advices.

private fun makeWorld() {
        val wc = WorldCreator("world_island")
        wc.type(WorldType.FLAT)
        wc.generateStructures(false)
        wc.generator(main.generator)
        wc.environment(World.Environment.NORMAL)
        wc.createWorld()
    }

(WorldCreator wc = [...]) for Java users

[tender shard]

sth like this shuold do. in this case, radius would have to be 1 for 3x3x3 (because the center block is always included, so it goes +/- 1 into each direction which results in 3)

    public static List<Block> getBlocksInRadius(Block origin, int radius) {
        List<Block> list = new ArrayList<>():
        int startX = origin.getX();
        int startY = origin.getY();
        int startZ = origin.getZ();
        
        for(int x = startX - radius; x <= startX + radius; x++) {
            for(int y = startY - radius; y <= startY + radius; y++) {
                for(int z = startZ - radius; z <= startZ + radius; z++) {
                    list.add(origin.getWorld().getBlockAt(x,y,z));
                }
            }
        }
        
        return list;
    }

[wet breach]

you could accomplish this with a single loop btw

[maiden geode]

The name of the world is everywhere the same, the world is taken from just 2 sources (config and manager in which the method mentioned is)

[wet breach]

you only have to interate half as the other half is just the inverse

and since its an equal square only one iteration is needed

technically a cube, but regardless still applies the same lol

[tender shard]

that should definitely work

are you using paper?

try it on spigot. createWorld() should be blocking IIRC

[maiden geode]

Yes, I'm programming in spigot but using paper as the engine

[tender shard]

try to run it on spigot

[hazy parrot]

Just FYI, Any#apply exist

[tender shard]

maybe on paper the WorldCreator does async stuff or sth so the world isn't "finished" when you try to use it?

[maiden geode]

Sounds about right

[trim lake]

Do someone now how to rename (change title) of opened inventory?

[maiden geode]

I've tried restarting the server, the world is indeed being created but that's all about it

[17:02:25] [Server thread/WARN]: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "org.bukkit.World.getBlockAt(org.bukkit.Location)" because the return value of "org.bukkit.Location.getWorld()" is null

The same thing

[tender shard]

you have to call your "create" method again after a restart

I don't know kotlin syntax but maybe add sth like this in your create method, but before the return statement:

Bukkit.getScheduler().runTaskTimer(myPlugin, new Consumer<BukkitTask>() {
public void accept(BukkitTask task) {
  if(Bukkit.getWorld(worldName) == null) {
    System.out.println("World is not laoded yet... waiting...");
  } else {
    System.out.println("World is now loaded!");
    task.cancel();
  }
}, 1, 1);

then see if it actually says "World is now loaded" some time

[tacit drift]

maybe start the plugin before worlds loaded?

wasn't it an option in plugin.yml? (haven't followed the whole issue)

[wet breach]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/inventory/InventoryView.html#setTitle(java.lang.String)

[tender shard]

oh this was added?

[maiden geode]

I've added the method to the main class and still the same thing

[tender shard]

who the heck wrote those shitty javadocs

[maiden geode]

It used to work... Used to...

[wet breach]

its always been a thing for like a long long time

[tender shard]

no.

it was added very recently

[wet breach]

it was just updated in what it was called

but its been there

[tender shard]

it was added in may

[wet breach]

it used to be setName

[tender shard]

bukkit #849 cb #1176

[wet breach]

as I said, it used to be SetName

[tender shard]

no

[wet breach]

ok, well go look at old apis

[tender shard]

https://helpch.at/docs/1.19.3/org/bukkit/inventory/InventoryView.html see here, 1.19.3

there's no setName

IIRC Inventory#setName() or sth existed but that was back in 1.8

[wet breach]

unless it used to be in inventory holder

and just moved to the view

instead

either way, setting the name of an inventory has always been a thing

just where in the API was changed

[tender shard]

it was definitely not possible in 1.16 and 1.19 without NMS

[wet breach]

to set the name of the inventory?

[tender shard]

to change the name of an already existing inventory

e.g. for animated GUI titles or shit

[wet breach]

oh, yeah to change an existing inventories name that is true

[maiden geode]

@tender shard I just sent a string to the player with the world name and it works, so I think the issue is with generating the world for some reason... But why .-. It used to work perfectly fine

[trim lake]

Thats fine... But I want plugin to be suported from 1.18.2. Its only in 1.20.1. Im not sure what canceling my event or just why I cannot move anyitems in menu and not even in my invnetory. Thats issue for me now

I just want make notification in inventory title to dont forget to save the changed kit, if its changed.

Need to figurate out some other way of reminder. Prorably with some item. Looks like in title is not possible

[tender shard]

no cue. I really suggest that you return a CompletableFuture instead

and that future only completes once the world is "done"

[wet breach]

why not make a custom notification for the player in question in the chat?

[trim lake]

Just when he close the inventory? Maybe I should do it that way.

[wet breach]

well chat is visible while in the inventory

[trim lake]

My goal was this

[wet breach]

well you can update the title of an existing inventory via NMS

[trim lake]

I dont think someone will read it chat while chaning the kit

[wet breach]

not overly difficult to do it

[tender shard]

    public static CompletableFuture<World> createWorld(WorldCreator creator) {
        return CompletableFuture.supplyAsync(() -> {
            World myWorld = creator.createWorld();
            while (Bukkit.getWorld(myWorld.getName()) == null) {
                try {
                    Thread.sleep(100);
                } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
                }
            }
            return myWorld;
        });
    }

this would probably work but it's pretty shit

[wet breach]

depends how you make your notification

you could use buttons

also to continue with your idea on closing

you could make a notification in chat with buttons if they wanted to save it

[trim lake]

If someone close inventory open another with save option? That will be anyoing xD

[wet breach]

no

you can make a button in the chat

[trim lake]

Oh you mean in chat

[wet breach]

with 2 options

yes or no

[lilac dagger]

can the metrics class be obfuscated?

[wet breach]

maybe? but why would you want that to be obfuscated?

[tender shard]

sure

[trim lake]

There is no point to make no option probably, he can just ingore that message. Just You didnt save your kit. Click here to save! whould be probably enought

[lilac dagger]

saving a few extra bytes

[tender shard]

you can obfsucate any class you like

[wet breach]

idk why you are so obsessed with saving bytes

[tender shard]

yeah that makes little sense

nobody cares if a plugin is 347kb or 248

[wet breach]

not just that, but literally no one is using a 56k modem either

or connection

well none that are playing MC

[tender shard]

maybe they are making a plugin that's being used on the ISS

they have slow internet

[wet breach]

they actually have decent speed on the ISS

[chrome beacon]

People like to think larger file size means worse server performance

[tender shard]

last time I checked they used remote desktop and couldnt actually access internet directly

[tender shard]

meanwhile my plugins are all 1 or 2 MB 🥲

🥲

[wet breach]

the internet has to be relayed yes, but this isn't relevant to the speed of the connection. The main reason is that internet is typically beamed to earth, not out into space

[tender shard]

hm idk I read something on quora and IIRC an actual former ISS dude said the internet is horrible, at least couldnt be used to stream videos

[trim lake]

Btw. thats remind me another question. If I want to link someone with player (some settings or what ever) and save that to HashMap is problem if I do HashMap<Player, String> or its better to do HashMap<UUID, String> ?

[tender shard]

hence he brought a collection of DVDs

but that might be outdated, idk

[wet breach]

but they live stream videos all the time

[tender shard]

hmm you're right

maybe that dude was full of bullshit then, or the answer I read was from 2007

[maiden geode]

No, not really

[tender shard]

you should always use UUIDs

[maiden geode]

No idea bout this worlds, it's really weird

[tender shard]

you can also just use the Player object directly but you will have to listen to PlayerQuitEvent and remove them from the map then

in any case, you'd ideally use an IdentityHashMap and not a normal hashmap if you wanna go for using Players

oh and it'll break on shitty forks such as mohist

UUID will however always work

[trim lake]

Thats what Im doing currently. I dont need that data if player is not on server so.

[tender shard]

TL;DR whether using a player works depends on server software, it will not work on mohist

I'd use an UUID

[wet breach]

it is quite possible that their personal computers are not allowed to use the same connection and or have lower bandwidth access then the government computers do

and this is probably where they didn't clarify

[tender shard]

that might be true

[trim lake]

I dont even know what is mohist xD Okey, gonana change all Player to UUID. Thanks. You every day learn something nuew

[maiden geode]

@tender shard I just teleported myself to this world and it actually actually works .-. But the plugin is thinking it's null: https://paste.learnspigot.com/heqatobone.rb

[tender shard]

Mohist is a shitty software that allows to use both forge mods and bukkit plugins

and both only works half-assed

[tender shard]

show your code pls

[trim lake]

Anyway, I should use UUIDs so thats need to be changed

[tender shard]

IntelliJ has a feature to replace every occurance of Player with player.getuniqueId() btw

[maiden geode]

It's kinda hard, but I'll try to show methods which are responsible for that

[tender shard]

somewhere in the refactor menu

[trim lake]

Thats perfect I will need to use that 😄 That will save some time

[wet breach]

you need to wait a tick after teleporting

[maiden geode]

?

No, it's been working just fine before. I suppose to start the server and be teleported to this world once I join the server...

[tender shard]

Ctrl+Shift+F6 i think

[wet breach]

yeah you need to wait a tick for them to fully join

[maiden geode]

No idea why it doesn't work now, it just broke

[maiden geode]

yeah

[tender shard]

but maybe it's only possible in IJ ultimate

[trim lake]

I will take a look on that. Thanks a lot.

[tender shard]

does anybody know if it's possible to use "variables" in javadocs, i.e. so that I don't have to write the same docs twice and be able to say "pls reuse the same javadocs as from the following method: ..."?

[smoky oak]

@link

doesnt actually copy the JD, i dont think thats possible inside the same class, but it points to the jd of the other method

[trim lake]

Mby 🤔

[smoky oak]

maybe it's @see

im not sure which @ it was

[tender shard]

Type Migration

but I don't remember if this actually works lol. maybe it doesn't haha

[trim lake]

Not look likese what I want it 😄

Nwm, I will just change the type and I will get errors and just fix them

[tender shard]

that looks correct. You can change org.bukkit.entity.Player to java.lang.UUID and then there should be an additional field that lets you say "what used to be player now is player.getUniqueId()" or sth

[glass mauve]

if I have this config.yml:

group1:
  entry1:
    message: "Hello"
  entry2:
    message: "Hello"

whats the best way to iterate through all entries?
will getStringList("group1")
return a list like this: ["entry1", "entry2"]
and then I iterate throw the keys?

[tender shard]

watch out for "contains" as it takes in an Object, that means your code still compile if you check contains(somePlayer) but it just won't work

[smoky oak]

no, entry1 and entry2 are treated as path parts

you call getKeys on group1 and iterate through the configurationsection starting at group1

you need to know your config structure

[glass mauve]

ah ok thanks

[tender shard]

getConfigurationSection("group1").getKeys(false) will return a list "entry1" and "entry2"

[trim lake]

Thats perfect thanks a lot.

[tender shard]

if you use "true" it'll return "entry1", "entry1.message", "entry2" and "entry2.message"

[glass mauve]

ah ok good to know :D

Example error:
https://paste.learnspigot.com/edudujotup.php
Method responsible for that:
https://paste.learnspigot.com/enafuvaxum.kotlin

[tender shard]

yeah but that won't copy the description, does it?

[maiden geode]

"home.world?.getChunkat..." is getting the world. "home" is a home location, it is using Location class as a location so there is world saved in it

[smoky oak]

like i said i looked into it. It doesnt copy the description, and afaik it's not possible to copy the description of methods in the same class. it does just copy the JD of parent class methods if it's a @Override of a method without javadoc itself

[tender shard]

sad

[smoky oak]

think ur out of luck

[tender shard]

thanks anyway

[smoky oak]

like i said my solution is just @see lol

its just one click extra

[tender shard]

I will just add a comment to remind myself to always update both

[smoky oak]

yea, id just forget, so thats not an option for me

my solution was to figure out a way to do it with varargs lol

but that doesnt always work

how does a location not have a world

[trim lake]

I will need to fix this manualy anyway xD

[onyx fjord]

UUID p 💀
Event e 💀

[maiden geode]

It's got a world XD I can teleport to this world and all but my plugin for some reason can't see the world

[smoky oak]

have you set up a debugger?

you might want to take a look at that variable

[trim lake]

what is wrong with that? 🤔

[smoky oak]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/intellij-debug-your-plugin/ assuming intelliJ

[orchid trout]

shortening the variable name doesnt have any advantage, it just confuses the people reading your code

[smoky oak]

e is the standard name for event and p is the standard for player

some short forms are 100% acceptable

[north nova]

i usually use unicode for my vairables

[smoky oak]

WHAT

how does that even compile lo

[quaint mantle]

I just learned to use that from some tutorials. But ye, it will be maybe better to make like player insterd of p.

[smoky oak]

my compiler breaks at anything beyond ASCII-8

[north nova]

final Player $@! = Bukkit.getPlayer(*test");

yep

i only name my unused lambda parameters

[maiden geode]

idk how to do it with the new one nvm

[smoky oak]

wym 'new one'

[onyx fjord]

you are a human, you should use human friendly naming

[maiden geode]

It's old intellij in the tut lol

[onyx fjord]

shorter var names dont make your plugin faster

[maiden geode]

Or mac version

[smoky oak]

ah it still works the same

[clear panther]

how to make a mob my pet

[clear panther]

and what is a passenger

tho

[smoky oak]

just go edit configuration -> remote JVM debug, copy the line in the 'command line arg' part, and paste it in your start.bat

start server, wait for load, press the bug looking button

done

[maiden geode]

Yeah, I got it

[smoky oak]

good

just place a breakpoint

works like normal

btw

edit spigot.yml timeout

or server crashes after 60 seconds

vanilla mc dcs after 30

theres a mod but idk the name that makes client timeout longer

[maiden geode]

What about this thing:

[smoky oak]

yea thats good like that

thats just the hook for the server

tells java to listen for interrupts

[maiden geode]

Yeah? But where should I paste that? xD

[smoky oak]

wait how do you start your server

[maiden geode]

Windows batch file

[smoky oak]

yea

that goes in that batch file

[maiden geode]

Like from the folder

Can I use paper with it or not really?

Hmmmm can someone verify something for me. I wanna stop the breaking of an ArmorStand when the player has a permission asedit.disableCreativeBreak and when they are in Creative Mode (hence the permission name). Is the below snippet of code a good start?

    @EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.LOWEST)
    void onArmorStandBreak (BlockBreakEvent event){
        //Disables breaking an ArmorStand in Creative Mode ?
        if (ignoreNextInteract) return;
        if (event.getBlock().getType() != Material.ARMOR_STAND) return;
        Player player = event.getPlayer();

        if(player.hasPermission("asedit.disableCreativeBreak")){
            Block block = event.getBlock();
            if(block.getType() == Material.ARMOR_STAND && player.getGameMode() == GameMode.CREATIVE){
                event.setCancelled(true);
            }
        }
    }

[north nova]

why dont you try it...?

[echo basalt]

screams chatgpt to me

or copilot

[sage patio]

how can i prevent a player from death?

[smoky oak]

who pays for ai nowadays lolbruh

[smoky oak]

you can literally cancel die

cancel the last damage event

just do a basic check

copilot student license

[hazy parrot]

Copilot is free

If ur student

[maiden geode]

That's funny xD

[smoky oak]

im a student and im not below using copilot

gpt and pilot are kinda useless the second you want something with more than 1 moving part

i tried once and never again

[echo basalt]

copilot is a good dev tool imo

it learns with you

so if you write shit code

it writes shit code with you

[smoky oak]

see heres the thing

im not actually good

i just know a lot

[echo basalt]

then don't use AI in the first place

AI is a tool, not a mentor

[north nova]

its good if u know what ur doing

funny tho

[clear panther]

^

[north nova]

copilot fucked x11 on my linux setup

like it wouldn't boot

[smoky oak]

i just told yall im not using it

[north nova]

cause i ran out of memory

[echo basalt]

copilot is awful at resolving maven repos n shit

[clear panther]

you can ask AI for suggesting but def not for coding

never ask AI for code

[echo basalt]

and it bugs out when writing javadocs

and writes docs for methods that don't exist

[lilac dagger]

i was considering it

[clear panther]

yep

[lilac dagger]

but if it's still bad not sure i'll try it yet

[clear panther]

AI will only write a part of code and not even correct

[echo basalt]

At least it makes a decent attempt at code

but you have to correct it often

Still faster

like what the fuck is it thinking

[maiden geode]

@smoky oak ummm

[north nova]

200% certainty

[maiden geode]

No idea how you did it but you've got some magic powers lol

@smoky oak No idea how debugger works but now it's creating islands in the normal world? Without debugger it doesn't work lol

[smoky oak]

thats not how a debugger works wtf

[maiden geode]

So wth

[echo basalt]

something tells me you're having inconsistencies with world load speeds

[smoky oak]

honestly @echo basalt im surprised my cpu's not cooked yet. I do get the occasionally BSOD when im running UE5 games for some reason tho

[echo basalt]

nearly every laptop has cooling issues

don't be surprised

[maiden geode]

Now it's not working at all, debugger is empty, even tho there is a huge amount of errors in the console

[echo basalt]

I've ran my desktop ryzen cpu at 120C a couple times

[smoky oak]

im more surprised that for some reason games brick my os

[echo basalt]

when booting minecraft

[smoky oak]

like why the fuck do you bluescreen if and only if im in deep rock galactic lol

[echo basalt]

I had a defective AIO and the thermal paste was dry

[maiden geode]

Any ideas how I could fix that?

[echo basalt]

I'd boot the game and like 3 seconds later my pc would just shut off

[smoky oak]

ouch

[echo basalt]

You'll need to measure and add tolerances to your code

no clue exactly what you're doing

but when playing with worlds, there are tolerances for everything

I barely have any timing tolerances on my skyblock core because I'm not using .mca files but there's still a lot of tuning when managing worlds

[smoky oak]

intolerances to be specific

[echo basalt]

well

When playing with paper, world IO is done async and there's no way to know when it's done

The event fires and then IO starts

[smoky oak]

wait i thought spigot cant break on paper

the more you know

[echo basalt]

well

paper isn't 1:1

and this isn't quite bukkit api

[smoky oak]

cant you run both and print out timenanos before and after?

[maiden geode]

@echo basalt I can share my repo with you on github so you can have a better look if you'd like to. There are just 2 classes responsible for creating the world (IslandManager and IslandCore(main, which is simply calling IslandManger)), would it be okay?

[echo basalt]

containsKey before get -> get & null check

[warped shell]

if i spawn particles using a parametric equation and a bukkit runnable, how can I account for the direction of the player?
https://paste.md-5.net/zegamunive.cpp

[smoky oak]

something something multiply with player location direction vector

been a few years since i touched vector math

[echo basalt]

put xOffset, yOffset, z in a vector and rotateAroundY by the player yaw

[warped shell]

hm i tried that but maybe i didnt do it right

[echo basalt]

no clue what effect you're trying to make but there's probably an easier way

[warped shell]

just goofing around with it

I just started

[smoky oak]

yea now run it a few times then check the other variant

btw for easier readout, subtract start time from end time before displaying

[echo basalt]

oh god

yeah my approach will work

[smoky oak]

by the way

do not spawn more than 25k particles at once

otherwise it'll get hacked up

[warped shell]

ik ive learnt that the hard way

[echo basalt]

new Vector(xOffset, 0, z).rotateAroundY(Math.toRadians(player.getYaw()))

[smoky oak]

yea now for my question

[echo basalt]

type deal

[warped shell]

crashed my test server a few times lol

[smoky oak]

howd u make the legs transparent?

like i need that exact effect for a plugin of mine

[warped shell]

oh i was rotating using the yaw in degrees

just needed to make it radians

[maiden geode]

So I should add some timing to the code so it delays the creation of the world? Or am I understanding that in a wrong way?

[echo basalt]

ye

[maiden geode]

Hm

[wide coyote]

by not using try-with-resources

thats what causes the issue ig

[maiden geode]

So the world works now, but it works only after creating it and restarting the server (if I try to use it after the first start and creation of it - it won't work). How can I solve it?

[warped shell]

sorry to say its just me being invis with armor on

nothing special there

[smoky oak]

pretty sure invis doesnt make you transparent

some nonsense with a resource pack?

[warped shell]

lemme check

in f5 it makes you transparent to yourself I think

look pretty cool though

Hello, i have a question, i would like put "serial number" on items wich will allow me to trace them. Do you think NBT Api is the best option te create NBT tag in items (server 1.8.9)

[tall dragon]

in 1.8.9 i would say so yea

[tender shard]

yes, on 1.8.9 you'd use NBTAPI

on 1.14+ you could use the included PersistentDataContainer api

Could I get support here for maven? I have a plugin, common and v1_8_r3 module. For some reason when compiling I get a build failure (see image). In my IDE I have reloaded the maven project but it does not give any errors (see second image). These are the dependencies in my plugin module pom:

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>dev.bloedarend</groupId>
            <artifactId>common</artifactId>

Am I missing something?

pretty sure u just need to do it without try-with-resources

like how was said

its closing it right away

alr

nah i need the try and catch

or shows up with this

can u even connect to it?

ye

it connects for like 2 seconds

ru sure

have u altered data

[rare rover]

[tranquil dome]

If it helps, removing those lines and compiling the plugin, the opening it in winrar, only the plugin module is actually there

[tall dragon]

sounds like they are just not being shaded then

[tranquil dome]

How do I shade them?

[tall dragon]

maven shade plugin

and put the scope on compile

[tranquil dome]

I have that

[tranquil dome]

Have tried this too

[tall dragon]

well with the shade plugin & scope on compile it should work

build and show build log

[tranquil dome]

https://hastebin.com/share/osogobotiq.bash

[tall dragon]

log sais its included

[tranquil dome]

this is inside the jar that was compiled

just a plugin folder

not the other modules

[shy finch]

I am having some issues with line endings in the craftbukkit project. When I write code normally, there doesn't seem to be any issue, but when I run makePatches.sh, it changes the line endings of every single patch file.

It looks there is code to handle these line endings in the makePatches script but I'm not familiar enough with patches to know exactly what is wrong. Of course I don't want to make a pull request with 500 changed files when I only changed 3 or 4.

[tall dragon]

hm can u see ur's pom's?

[tranquil dome]

sure 1 moment

[lilac dagger]

mongo looks pretty good

how does creating a database look like?

[tall dragon]

by just getting it

its create on demand type stuff

[tight roost]

tbh in most plugin environments an rdbms would probably be better than like

a document db

😭

[lilac dagger]

that's cool

[tight roost]

i really like this but also i don’t because i always have a typo somewhere and it doesn’t error out, it just makes a new collection

[rare rover]

hmm

how tf do i do this then

[tall dragon]

firsly i'd clearly add scope: compile to every dependency thats supposed to be shaded. just so its clear. pretty sure its not absolutely requiredbut its a good thing

id also move all the shading to ur plugin pom

and only keep provided shit in parent pom

cuz rn whats happening i think

ur shading alll this kotlin shit into all the modules

which u then all shade into plugin

causing all these overlaps

which should be cleaned up nicely ofcourse. but i think something might be going wrong there

[tranquil dome]

I don't think it's shading anything into plugin either. Also I'm using a library called BoostedYAML (which requires shading) in multiple modules, so I have the dependency and do the shading of that in the main pom.

[tall dragon]

why

in the end u only need the shading into ur plugin

the other modules can just have it as provided

[tranquil dome]

I've put the shading into the build script for the plugin module

and set my own dependencies as provided in every module other than plugin

and I can add provided to kotlin libraries too?

[tall dragon]

i dont use kotlin. but i assume so yea

[tranquil dome]

alright

it still does not shade my other modules though

[tall dragon]

can u show the log again?

        public String getEnchant(){
            return this.enchant;
        }

Random question, at getEnchant() is this even required anymore as since ive already called EnchantFuncs

or should I still use this.enchant for safety

Yeah I was thinking the same, I wanted to double check however just incase

I shouldnt run into issues tho as im not using same variable names

[tranquil dome]

Also I don't know if this is helpful but it only says dev.bloedarend for the parent and the api module

[vapid grove]

Fair

speaking of, what does final actually do

Ohhhh, gotcha

I was thinking that it entirely locked it or smth
Where lets say its a hashmap, you cant add onto it

You cant call .put()\

Thats actually useful

So then lets say:

final int a;
a = 0; --now its 0
a = 1; --still 0

This would be correct then right?

Since the variable wasnt assigned yet

[north nova]

no

u can't change it

ide would cry

[vapid grove]

Yeah ide would cry, this was just a question

I like learning lol

[north nova]

?

[sage patio]

how i can set a player like hes swiming? (i already did it with player.setSwiming(true) but it changes immediately, how can i prevent that? iirc it has an event)

[north nova]

this is cause you're actually assigning it after

[lilac dagger]

no, you can either use an immutable wrapper, or Map.of(elements);

but final only means you can't modify that field or you can't override or extend final methods and classes

[vapid grove]

Gotcha

Also, random issue, Named my plugin something dumb

Wanna change it

Now IDE is freaking out cause I renamed files

And I tried editing the pom as well

Am I missing something

Lettme reload

Oh nvm it fixed lol

[lilac dagger]

just look into .idea for deleted modules

so you don't have problems later on if you wanna rename onto that

[tranquil dome]

@tall dragon the shinobistriker-api module was empty and after adding a class into it, it was also shaded but with a different name

I originally copied this project over from another plugin which only had a plugin and "discordo-api" module. Maybe something went wrong because of that?

[tall dragon]

honeslty no clue in ur case lmao

nvm, its EntityToggleSwimEvent

hey, any ideas here? To fix my line endings problem?

[tranquil dome]

so this is gonna sound really dumb

but renaming the sources folder from kotlin to java fixed it

I would really like to use ServiceManager but this makes my code kinda untestable, Bukkit.getServicesManager throws an exception
anything I can do about it?

Can someone review this class I created for enchants, and tell me how I can improve it if needed

[sage patio]

put spaces before your { s 💀

[carmine mica]

why do you have nonstatic methods interacting with a map in a static field?

that enchantmentList should just be an instance field, not static

[vapid grove]

I have 0 clue actually

Thank you for porting that out

Hold on wait I remember why I did that

lets say I initalize all the enchantments, and try to call new EnchantManager from another class

Are the enchants still gunna exist in enchantmentList

[carmine mica]

don't call new, just create one

[vapid grove]

Wdym create one

[carmine mica]

why would you create a new one? if

create a single one, and use it in multiple places

or if you want to abuse static, just make all the methods static

[vapid grove]

So should i just make a static method inside of a setup class, called public static final EnchantmentManager

[vapid grove]

god no

[vapid grove]

This way its callable outside of the class, without using new

[carmine mica]

also, why does that inner class extend the EnchantmentManager

[hazy parrot]

Enchantment base in question

[carmine mica]

why isnt the EnchantmentBase a field there instead of the string identifier?

[vapid grove]

IDE was screaming at me for it

No enclosing instance of type 'me.emerald.plugin.resources.main.EnchantmentManager' is in scope

I would have kept it in the same clas otherwise

[carmine mica]

where is Enchantmentbase? is it a nonstatic inner class?

[vapid grove]

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

abstract class

for the enchantments themselves

[carmine mica]

a top level class?

[vapid grove]

Yes

[carmine mica]

shouldn't have any issue with putting it as a field in EnchantFuncs

[vapid grove]

For some reason it does

[carmine mica]

screenshot pls, I want to see where the issue is

[vapid grove]

k

[vapid grove]

Now IDE is saying Found problems related to 'me.emerald.plugin.api.EnchantmentManager.EnchantmentBase'

With 0 information

[carmine mica]

you said it was a top level class

that is NOT a top level class

[vapid grove]

I assumed it was

[carmine mica]

is EnchantmentBase inside EnchantmentManager?

[vapid grove]

Oh wait I see what you mean now

[carmine mica]

and its not static?

[vapid grove]

No its not a top level class, I thought you meant my new version of it

the seperate class for it

[carmine mica]

EnchantmentBase should be a static class if its inside another class

[vapid grove]

That seems to have fixed it

I am writing a plugin like skywars, and I have the distribution of players by their islands and the issuance of a gamemode spectator, but some players do not have bodies and hitboxes

It’s hard to answer a programming question without code
Oh no! You ran into a problem. But no worries, people are willing to help, but first they need to see your code. This is because otherwise, they would be providing help based on guesses instead of concrete knowledge. Whether it be a compile error, runtime error, or an unexpected output, I'm sure that if you were to provide code, you'd receive a quick solution.

[rare rover]

is there a way to keep your sqlite connection alive after a .execute?

[orchid trout]

save it on a field

[rare rover]

wdym?

DATABASE_CONNECTION is a private static variable

but after 1 executeUpdate() it'll disconnect it

[remote swallow]

it shouldnt get closed there

its not try with resources

[south mason]

I just use
for (Player player : playerlist) [
player.setGamemode(Gamemode.Survival);
]

[rare rover]

idk

it does

oh wait

🤦‍♂️

nvm im just dumb

🙂

[south mason]

Only head, without legs and body, without hitbox

[orchid trout]

any errors? what do you expect the code to do?

[orchid trout]

because they are in spectator mode

[south mason]

But theu cant fly

And have normal hud

[orchid trout]

are you using paper or something

no, I have some kind of bug when I put players in survival mode with my plugin, some players have no body and hitbox

@Override
    public void onDisable() {
        ChatBridge.sendMessageToDiscord(":octagonal_sign: The server has stopped");
        discordBot.shutdown();

}

RestAction queue returned failure

I assume this is shutting down my bot before the queued message is sent to discord?
The message still went through but I don't like this error. How could I fix this/make sure the message goes through before shutting down the bot?

my assumption is correct?

ok

can I just paste this in my discordbot.shutdown() method?
currently I just have jda.shutdownNow()

ok thanks!

yep, onDisable calls discordBot.shutdown() and that snippet is now in discordBot.shutdown()

[hazy parrot]

xd ?

i never saw your await shutdown

and complete is totally fine if you are running something on application shutdown

as it will block the thread for request (it doesn't matter as application will be killed anyway)

[hazy parrot]

.

nah, that definetly isn't case 😄

ok well my project has been fully tested. should I push to github now or wait for a consensus here? lol

I've been suffering for an hour now, why is the text not displayed in the bossbar? it updates the bossbar and sends a message to the chat, but for some reason there is hi in the chat (for testing), but not in the bossbar

        Component result = Component.text("");

        List<String> strings = new ArrayList<>(){{
            add("ɱ");
            add("ɤ");
            add("ʥ");
        }};

        // generate horizontal offset
        result = result.append(createHorizontal().font(Key.key("minecraft:default")));

        Component offset = Component.translatable("space.-1").font(Key.key("space:default"));
        Component newLine = Component.translatable("space.-1025").font(Key.key("space:default"));

        for(String string : strings){
            Component text = Component.text(string);

            result = result
                    .append(text)
                    .append(offset)
                    .append(text)
                    .append(offset)
                    .append(text)
                    .append(offset)

hi, i use a like this system for my guis. https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-modern-approach-to-inventory-guis.594005/

i want make a confirmation gui with completable futur. How i can do?

[smoky oak]

let me rephrase that

can i call a constructor as the not-first instruction in another constructor

[zealous osprey]

Could you provide an example please?
"not-first" is a bit off putting

[smoky oak]

basically i want to do this

constructorA(Player, someStaticData){}
constructorB(Player, CommonCasesEnum){
  switch(CommonCasesEnum){
    case EMPTY: this(player, null); break;
    case JUMPER: this(player, List.of(Abilities.DOUBLE_JUMP); break;
    ...
  }
}

[zealous osprey]

Neither do I, youd have to make a check with an inline statement or create a function to parse the static data

[smoky oak]

actually i might have an absolutely aboniable idea

laughs in sith lord

yea that was my idea

just cuz its the first argument doesnt mean i cant do stuff inside

wait a moment

i dont even need a helper function :D

welp time to copy down 200 effects

im not looking forwards to this

by the way, is there a way to generate pairs of values somehow?

like so that they're close in source code?

the first entry is a list of effects and the second a list of their strengths

i mean i could do something absolutely cursed a la

object secondary_values(God patron, boolean effect){
  switch(patron){
    case 1: return effect ? List.of("String","String") : List.of(1,2);
  }
}

but

you know

[desert loom]

put the abiltities in the CommonCasesEnum maybe?

[smoky oak]

basic coding principles

[smoky oak]

that'S not a bad idea, any simple example coming to mind?

[desert loom]

    public enum Abilities {
        JUMPER;
    }

    public enum SomeEnum {
        EMPTY((Abilities) null),
        JUPITER(Abilities.JUMPER);

        private final List<Abilities> abilities;

        SomeEnum(Abilities... abilities) {
            this.abilities = List.of(abilities);
        }

        public List<Abilities> getAbilities() {
            return abilities;
        }

    }

    public static class SomeClass {

        private final List<Abilities> abilities;

        public SomeClass(SomeEnum someEnum) {
            this.abilities = someEnum.abilities;
        }

    }

something like this

[smoky oak]

pretty sure thats still normal java there

[echo basalt]

that's a weird approach

Just do what mojang does

[smoky oak]

oh not using enums at all you mean

took a moment to register

I... just realized all those would be static and initialized when first accessed, wouldn't work with my approach

I need a reference to player

i can probably work around that but its gonna be a pain

[echo basalt]

You can have it as an interface / abstract class / a factory of some sort

This is my constraint class

[smoky oak]

yea similar idea, but i need more than 20 minutes to call judgement if i want to do it like that

[echo basalt]

Not the best but I properly sanitize stuff

[smoky oak]

ah I'm clearing out my values on the playerLeave event

and init on playerJoin

the instances are interchangeable, the player is the lynchpin

[echo basalt]

You can have an AbilitiesProvider interface that's just a factory then

and a registry for those

[smoky oak]

I'll see if i can do it like this, seems cleaner. Thanks for the advice, Illusion

I can just do a mapping player->abilityProvider

[echo basalt]

yeah something like that

public interface AbilityProvider {

  Ability provide(Player player);

}

[smoky oak]

I'm keeping a singletron in my plugin main class cuz some bukkit stuff requires it, easier to access there

[echo basalt]

icky

[smoky oak]

i mean

[echo basalt]

So yeah convert to an interface

[smoky oak]

its not getting lost lol

my reasoning is that since plugin's a singletron anyways, i dont need to keep references to it

[sweet sonnet]

Is this the correct way to connect to a sqlite database and then create a table?

// Database
try {
    connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlite:" + getDataFolder() + File.separator + "data.db");
    try (Statement statement = connection.createStatement()) {
        statement.setQueryTimeout(30);
        statement.executeUpdate("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS Reports (reportID INT, reportedPlayerUUID TEXT, reporterUUID TEXT, reason TEXT, timeStamp TEXT)");
    } catch (SQLException e) {
        getLogger().severe("Error executing SQL query: " + e.getMessage());
    }
} catch (SQLException e) {
    getLogger().severe("Error connecting to the database: " + e.getMessage());
    getServer().getPluginManager().disablePlugin(this);
}

[echo basalt]

I'd split the logic up a bit more

especially if you care about mysql later

[sweet sonnet]

it would be more or less the same for mysql right? just replace the connection url with the sql database credentials

[echo basalt]

well

That results in duplicate code

Time for an ✨ abstraction ✨

For example, what would your "database" class look like?

[sweet sonnet]

could you elaborate please

[sweet sonnet]

This is just in my main class in onEnable

[echo basalt]

We're going to write a more.. generic way of handling data, so that implementing a new database doesn't require a ton of effort

[onyx fjord]

yup, you can make a custom class that handles pairs

[smoky oak]

ah it's been resolved already

interface's better here

[echo basalt]

This is mine

What would yours look like

[sweet sonnet]

https://github.com/SnowzNZ/SnowReports/blob/2.0/src/main/java/dev/snowz/snowreports/report/Report.java
https://github.com/SnowzNZ/SnowReports/blob/2.0/src/main/java/dev/snowz/snowreports/utils/ReportManager.java

[echo basalt]

Alright

So let's just start by writing an interface that serves as a template for how we're going to handle this data

[smoky oak]

like i know youre talking to snow but it feels like youre talking to me cuz i just thought how crap my code is lol

[echo basalt]

public interface ReportDatabase {

  CompletableFuture<Boolean> tryEnable(ConfigurationSection section);

  CompletableFuture<Report> fetchReport(int reportId);
  CompletableFuture<Void> saveReport(Report report);
  CompletableFuture<List<Report>> getReportsBelongingTo(UUID reportedPlayerId);
  CompletableFuture<Void> deleteReport(int reportId);
  
  default CompletableFuture<Boolean> contains(int reportId) {
    return fetchReport(reportId).thenApply(report -> report != null);
  }
}

This is my guide on completablefutures if you'd like to see

Anyways we can then create an SQLQuery enum and an abstract sql implementation so we can later just implement our drivers

[smoky oak]

man you should start ur own blog

[echo basalt]

public enum SQLQuery {
  CREATE_TABLE,
  FETCH_REPORT,
  SAVE_REPORT,
  GET_PLAYER_REPORTS,
  DELETE_REPORT,
}

And a basic impl

[sweet sonnet]

I'm going to need my hand held 😂, I'm only 2 months into java

[echo basalt]

public abstract class AbstractSqlDatabase implements ReportDatabase {

  private final AtomicReference<Connection> connectionReference = new AtomicReference(null); // You can switch to a connection pool if you'd like

  protected abstract Connection createConnection();
  protected abstract Map<SQLQuery, String> getQueries();
  protected abstract boolean enable(ConfigurationSection section);

  @Override
  public CompletableFuture<Boolean> tryEnable(ConfigurationSection section) {
      return CompletableFuture.runAsync(() -> enable(section)).thenCompose(unused -> createTables());
  }

  ...
}

And implement our methods

https://github.com/IllusionTheDev/SkyblockCore/tree/2.0/SkyblockCore-Common/src/main/java/me/illusion/skyblockcore/common/database/fetching

I can't bother writing a full driver

but your final driver will look something like this -> https://github.com/IllusionTheDev/SkyblockCore/blob/2.0/SkyblockCore-Common/src/main/java/me/illusion/skyblockcore/common/database/fetching/sql/impl/MariaDBSkyblockDatabase.java

[vapid grove]

public ItemBase(String key){
            this.key = key;
            this.item = generateItem(null);
            this.recipe = createRecipe();
        }

Since this.key and this.item is running first, can createRecipe() access them or no

[echo basalt]

sure

[vapid grove]

[blazing flare]

If I wanted to create pagination, what is the best approach for keeping track of the current page? I can store it in an item's name, lore or pdc but I think, although haven't tried, I can save it in a custom inventory holder. Is there a preferred approach? I was initially thinking of using a custom holder with a hashmap of metadata that I add to it, not just limited to current page number of course.

[vapid grove]

I created my own inventory framework for this so ill tell you what I did

I just made a new class for each gui to store information on that gui

And for pagination, pretty simple, just a protected int variable called page

public InventoryFW(int rows, String name){
        Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, Main.instance);
        inv = Bukkit.createInventory(null, rows * 9, name);
}

Old code mind it

But it works like a charm

Otherwise, your best other approach is just creating a class for each ui seperately, and making a call for it, and doing the same thing

[hazy parrot]

i would use pdc

[vapid grove]

Wait pdc works with inventorys?

I never knew that

Only thought it worked with itemstacks, and entities

[young knoll]

It doesn’t work with inventories

[vapid grove]

Oh welp :P

[blazing flare]

Pagination works with items, so if you clicked previous or next, it's clicking an itemstack.

that pdc 😛

[vapid grove]

Gotcha

In my oppinion however, why set pdc for an items page instead of just a variable

Just seems quite odd

[topaz panther]

Do i use Hex Color Codes for a Custom Color?

[young knoll]

[topaz panther]
