storm crystal
I want a way to store this data:
-custom enemies, items
-menu and stash inventories
-player information (deaths, kills, etc.)
is there really no possible way to do it all in one type of data holding shit?
valid burrow
I dont know what to do at this point
Okay look ima give you one final answer completly explained and you can disagree all you want anyone with a brain will be on my side
It depends what you are storing, there are 2 options:
A GUI displaying player personal data: deaths, kills, achivements, skills, friends, anything like that
-> Dont store the GUI store the data (kills,achievments,skills etc)
or
A Inventory holding actual items like an enderchest. Items that arent just normal GUI-Buttons
(Store each Item as an Itemstack)
For both you can use either a file or database. Databases are usually faster and more secure than your average file but of course also a bit more complicated. Either way both will work. Just make sure to store what you actually need depending on your case
storm crystal
Okay look ima give you one final answer completly explained and you can disagree...
how do I store itemstacks
valid burrow
you can serealize them for example
meaning
they get turned int a long String
or if you are using yml files
you can store it just as is
storm crystal
sqlite database
storm crystal
With BukkitObjectOutputStream
why
cant I just make it a string
its easier
than whatever that shit is
young knoll
Okay, and how do you do that
storm crystal
.toString?
grim hound
.toString?
No
young knoll
That won’t give you a valid representation of an itemstack
grim hound
Kyori and then by hand deep to string
storm crystal
Serialize it to a byte array
then how to do this
grim hound
And even that might not work
valid burrow
.toString?
You will not be able to get the actual itemstack back from that String. So yeah serialize it
give me a sec
maybe i have a method laying around
public static byte[] serializeItemStack(ItemStack itemStack) {
try {
ByteArrayOutputStream outputStream = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
BukkitObjectOutputStream dataOutput = new BukkitObjectOutputStream(outputStream);
// Write the itemstack to the stream
dataOutput.writeObject(itemStack);
// Close it
dataOutput.close();
// return the result
return outputStream.toByteArray();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
that should be it

this is with twr if youre wondering. Both work

Convert either the inventory or stash to ItemStack[].
Create a BukkitObjectOutputStream.
Write the length of the array
Write each item in the ItemStack[]

Well, the best solution is a proper database service, list postgresql or mariadb
But that'll be overkill for a small personal project
and has a steeper learning curve
SQLite works too, has some of the SQL advantages but is a flat file, less setup for you
YAML/Json are probably the easiest, but terrible for long term plugin maintenance or any form of data analysis down the line

setFormat() will use a string format where the first argument is the player's display name and the second argument is the message. So ChatColor.RED + "%s" + ChatColor.GRAY + ": ' + ChatColor.WHITE + "%s" is the format you would want
Yes, it would work, if you have a custom.yml file in your plugin's resources
ionic thicket
well if it doesn't exist it should create one by itself
worldly ingot
Are you trying to create an empty yml file? Or are you trying to copy one from your plugin?
ionic thicket
onEnable it should check if there's or there's not a "custom.yml", if there is.. fine. else make one
worldly ingot
Okay, so you just want to make a file. saveResource() copies one from your plugin folder
Here I do saveResource("categories.yml", false)
worthy yarrow
Choco you use eclipse?
worldly ingot
But if you wanted to just make a yml file without copying one from your plugin's resources directory, you can make a new File object and use createNewFile() instead
File file = new File(getDataFolder(), "custom.yml");
try {
file.createNewFile();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}```createNewFile() already checks if a file exists so you don't have to do it yourself

I want to check if a player has executed a command thru a boolean value.
I would add this player to a list in the command's class and let the code execute only if this guy is not in that list. What happens if another player executes the command? doesn't another instance of it get called?
kind hatch
Depends on your code. :p
storm crystal
That's just writing the data to the file no?
during server runtime
ionic thicket
that's what a config is used for
kind hatch
I want to check if a player has executed a command thru a boolean value.
I would...
Realistically, as long as your list is a global variable it shouldn't be creating any new instances.
ionic thicket
so everytime a command gets executed it goes to check the same instance?
kind hatch
Every time a command is executed, the command logic is triggered.
So if your list that you are checking against has already been initialized outside of the command logic, then yes. Your command code would be checking against the already created instance.
storm crystal
Can I use caching for yaml just like for sql database?

@ionic thicket
public class MyCommand implements TabExecutor {
private List<Player> players = new ArrayList<>();
@Override
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
// Do your instanceof check beforehand here.
Player player = (Player) sender;
// This is an access method.
// The List has already been initialized and won't be reinitalized unless you assign it to another list.
players.get(player);
}
}
Alright, but what if i wanted to clear this from another command in another class
I should be making it static
kind hatch
You can either make a getter method for the list or have the data live in another class that you can manipulate.
Multiple ways to do it really.

Or, at least, not in the way that you've described it

you mean a static getter?
kind hatch

You can do that, yes.
ionic thicket
cuz if i don't make it static and create a new instance in another class to erase that list - that wouldnt have effect since the new instance would have an empty list
kind hatch
you mean a static getter?
I guess the list could be static in this case, but static is seldom used in spigot plugins.
ionic thicket
that's why I was trying not to use it
kind hatch
If you need to do it frequently, then you can periodically write the updated data to disk.
Spigot's yml files are basically cached already, so you would just need to delay the write to disk by putting the save method on a timer.
There are other caching strategies that you can use, this is just one of them. (Known as Write-Behind)

It has no sense
I want it to be updated as soon as it can
sullen marlin
Then put a .save after each .set
kind hatch
what do you think? should I do that? or is there another way?
Well, in this case specifically, having the list be static would cover your cases. Clearing is easy and adding/removing would be just fine. Unless you are creating multiple instances of your command class (which you shouldn't be) then having the variable be static wouldn't be an issue.
kind hatch
I want it to be updated as soon as it can
You can make the period short. It doesn't have to be a long delay.
You can save directly to disk after each update, but that will have an impact on performance when scaling up.
storm crystal
You can make the period short. It doesn't have to be a long delay.
You can save ...
Thats literally what I meant
So I will cache
And save only on server restart/disable
kind hatch
That's all well and good, but you have the potential problem of server crashes and if you only save on restart/disable then you risk losing the data.
Which is why it's a good idea to periodically save on top of saving regularly.
storm crystal

Hey all. I'm trying to run the BuildTools GUI but I'm having trouble getting it to detect the right java version. It can detect versions 1.8 and 18, but not versions 17 or 22. Even when I manually select the java.exe for either 17 or 22 I still get the error saying that BuildTools could not find the necessary Java executable. Does anyone know why it would detect only those two versions? My 1.8 install is in program files (x86) and the other three versions are in program files

Are you using the Detect & Choose button, Select button, or writing the path manually?
pearl ferry
No log shows up from what I can tell. I click build and this error pops up
BuildTools could not find the necessary Java Executable to build latest.
Java 17 or Java 22 is required to build latest.
You can download the necessary version using one of the following links.
The provided links have downloads for all operating systems.
Make sure you install the executable file and not the .zip / .tar.gz!
Windows (.exe / .msi)
Mac (.dmg / .pkg)
Linux (.deb / .rpm)
OpenJDK
https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/
Azul
https://www.azul.com/downloads/#zulu
Oracle
https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/
Once you have installed the necessary java version, please restart BuildTools and try again.
If you believe this error to be a mistake and already have the required java version installed, please follow these instructions:
1. Go to the Options tab
2. Enable the `Override Java Executable` checkbox.
3. Provide the correct java path.
4. Try again. :)
Detect & Choose only shows version 1.8 and 18, so I used the select button and chose at first version 17, then went through oracle and downloaded 22 which is what I've been trying to debug with now

Trying to wrap my head around the potion-related changes in 1.20.6. Previously I'd look to see if a potion type startsWith("long_"), for instance, and then set the extended boolean in the PotionData instance accordingly. Same with strong_. Is there a backwards compatible way to do the same thing now? The 1.20.6 post says to use API that's been around since 1.9, but the only such API that seems remotely compatible between versions is the custom effect methods.

Uh I’m pretty sure what you described (startsWith) works fine, there are long and strong types still https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/potion/PotionType.html#LONG_SLOWNESS

But these weren't in 1.19 for example. Like, they didn't exist as PotionType enum values from what I can see.
Even in 1.20.4 it seems.
quiet ice
debian <:stonks:852896207280799755>
Me, running fedora on servers: No you f-ing don't.
rustic crown
I guess maybe for full context, the syntax my code tries to parse is potion:<type>:<amount>, where prior to 1.20.6 I'd do the startsWith stuff to "chop off" part of the <type>, like long_swiftness would just become swiftness with the extended boolean set to true. It seems like now I can just omit the chopping, but then I break backwards compatibility. Even if I do a bit of "try-catch juggling", I still end up with a PotionType that I don't know exactly how to deal with without some form of reflection-based approach when I need to set the type on the PotionMeta, because the old setBasePotionData is now replaced with setBasePotionType.
sullen marlin
backwards compatability just isn't a thing
rustic crown
If there is no backwards compatible way to approach this without reflection, I will just have to live with that, but I'd obviously prefer to not have such a hard cutoff between versions.

Or well, whichever way you turn it, really. I'd be happy working with the newest version of the API if it is backwards compatible, but working with 1.19 API that works with 1.20.6 is also fine.
rustic crown
Though I also have an issue with the whole sign open event vs. player interact event that requires a bump to 1.20.2 at least, so it might be a good time to make that hard cutoff.
rustic crown
will look into it
Thank you!
sullen marlin
it would only be temporary though, the API is deprecated
rustic crown
Yeah I noticed PotionData has been deprecated for a while. A lot of my code is just little maintenance tweaks on top of a messy code base that's been mostly "stable" for over a decade. With all the things that happened in 1.9, 1.13, etc., it's really starting to crack 😛
But I'd also be perfectly happy to move away from PotionData to something non-deprecated that's available in the pre-1.20.6 API that is forwards compatible.
sullen marlin
it's compatible 1.20.2+
rustic crown
Right, there's a setBasePotionType in 1.20.2, I see.
And that's also when the open sign event was introduced, right?
onyx fjord
is there no 1.20.3 either?
civic sluice
nope skipped like .5
sullen marlin
Thank you!
note: not currently fully compatible, in that they use null rather than uncraftable, but you can work around that
rustic crown
Ohhh exciting! Do I just run BuildTools with --rev 1.20.6 to get a build with this commit?
rustic crown
Thanks!
sullen marlin
Thanks!
ok should be up, use --rev 4156 if you get cached and it says its building an earlier build
any issues probably best to make a bug report https://hub.spigotmc.org/jira/ . Thanks!
rustic crown
I'll give it a whirl. Thank you 🙂

I did a bit of testing and have asked the person who reported the issue to me to give it a whirl on his end as well, but so far it's looking very promising! Thanks so much!

any idea why the drop click type isn't triggered in an inventory? I'm using event.getClick(). do I have to use something like event.getAction() instead?
middle click doesn't work either
chrome beacon
Which inventory?
stiff sonnet
an inventory inventory - one that I opened using openInventory and a Bukkit.createInventory
chrome beacon
Show your code
stiff sonnet
else if (action.clickType == ClickType.RIGHT) { // works
...
else if (action.clickType == ClickType.DROP) { // doesn't trigger
...
return new WidgetActionResult("block.note_block.bell"); // falls through to this instead (just plays the bell soudn)
enums in java are stupid
chrome beacon
Just pressing Q
chrome beacon
So you're not holding ctrl or anything else
chrome beacon
enums in java are stupid
How so?
stiff sonnet
you cannot just switch enums easily
glad prawn
you know what let me print the event name
print the click type name instead
stiff sonnet
you have to do some random stuff around it
chrome beacon
?
stiff sonnet
[STDOUT] DROP
I don't get it
chrome beacon
You can switch an enum just fine
stiff sonnet
You can switch an enum just fine
no you can't
I used it before and intellij complained about some bs
so I just ignored that
you need to do some funky garbage
chrome beacon
Sounds like you did it wrong
glad prawn
you need to do some funky garbage
try it out and show us how you write.
stiff sonnet
switch(variablewithenumvalue): {
case EnumValue.Something: -> { // just doesn't work
}
}
ClickType type;
switch (type) {
case DROP -> System.out.println("You dropped smth");
case RIGHT -> {
System.out.println("Right clicked smth");
System.out.println("This does work just fine :)");
}
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6391777/switch-on-enum-in-java this poster is just as confused as I am
chrome beacon
Also do note that this syntax is for newer versions of Java
stiff sonnet
I know
chrome beacon
not Java 8
stiff sonnet
java 8 isn't even supported for newer minecraft versions anymore
chrome beacon

and they also got an answer that shows how to do it
(in the old java 8 way)
stiff sonnet
you know what I figured it out.
you can't case Myenum.VALUE, you can only case VALUE
for whatever reason
drowsy helm
you can't case Myenum.VALUE, you can only case VALUE
It’s implied
first case is how C# does it
stiff sonnet
it does seem more sensical to me since you know exactly what you're switching
even at a glance
blazing ocean
rust match my beloved
chrome beacon
They're quite simillar to the Java ones, no?
hm does look like the rust one support ranges and such
granite owl
is this approach redundant in java? ```java
public Boolean readFromBytes(byte[] bytes, Charset charset)
{
return false;
}
public Boolean readFromFile(String path)
{
if (path == null) return false;
String[] pathDelimited = path.split("\\.");
if (pathDelimited.length <= 0) return false;
String extension = pathDelimited[pathDelimited.length - 1];
if (extension.equals(String.valueOf(this.settings.fileExtension)) != true) return false;
File file = new File(path);
if (file.exists() == false) return false;
String content = "";
try
{
content = Files.readString(file.toPath());
}
catch (IOException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
return false;
}
return this.readFromBytes(content.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
}
trying to get the data into a common format before processing it
tardy delta
Boolean?
brave pivot
If readFromBytes always returns false, why call it in the first place rather than returning false directly?
granite owl
If `readFromBytes` always returns false, why call it in the first place rather t...
because its not implemented yet
ill approach it with regular expressions and theyre annoying to write
tardy delta
what are you even doing
granite owl
and the reason to read from byte array is because i want to be able to read encrypted data on the harddrive, decrypt it and then read from the decrypted byte array
brave pivot
And what is "content" for? You don't seem to be doing anything with it
granite owl
what are you even doing
ini file reader/writer using regex
granite owl
And what is "content" for? You don't seem to be doing anything with it
because its not yet implemented
tardy delta
parse Files.readString(Path.of(path)) ?
split every line on = ? (i assume ini syntax is like x=y)
granite owl
thats what i will do
the question is
does it make sense to cast it into a byte array
if i want to read decrypted data in memory as byte array
tardy delta
bruh looks like toml
granite owl
?
granite owl
does it make sense to cast it into a byte array
^
granite owl
if i want to read decrypted data in memory as byte array
^
tardy delta
if you wanna have fun reading bytes, sure
tardy delta
how is it decrypted? the whole file content or what
granite owl
how is it decrypted? the whole file content or what
with an rsa and aes algorythm usually
tardy delta
i think you missed some explenation
granite owl
but why is that relevant how exactly its decrypted
tardy delta
decrypt the file first and then parse it?
granite owl
im looking for a generic way to read data from different sources
from harddrive
from memory
thats the question
tardy delta
if it needs to be decrypted, accept a byte array
granite owl
its supposed to be decrypted before passed to the reader
the decryption process is its own thing
not implemented in the reader
tardy delta
what reader, the parser?
granite owl
yes
