[lilac tide]

Can anyone help me with turning this github into a plugin, I just need the file for my minecraft and idk how to turn it into one https://github.com/HeyImJ0hn/BoatRace

[smoky oak]

• run buildtools (creates required libraries on your computer) for applicable version

• download project

• open in IDE

• run 'maven compile'

• look in target folder

maybe-not-optional a update to java 21

[lilac tide]

you know how to for ubuntu?

[smoky oak]

buildtools is available as jar file

look on the page for the shell args

[lilac tide]

It doesn't have a pom.xml file or whatever gradle file is

[eternal oxide]

buildtools is a jar or an exe

?bt

[undone axle]

https://www.spigotmc.org/wiki/buildtools/

[smoky oak]

no this is about the github project

[eternal oxide]

oh

yeah getting convos crossed

[smoky oak]

but you should just be able to make a pom.xml

[eternal oxide]

just import from Git a basic project

[lilac tide]

Do I put anything the the pom file or leave it blank

[smoky oak]

well the usual stuff

[lilac tide]

ok

[smoky oak]

spigot dependency and plugin name specifically

[lilac tide]

is it easier to do gradle or maven

[smoky oak]

eh. i do maven bc im used to it. i honestly cant tell

[lilac tide]

Ive never done either so do you know how long it will take to make the file?

[eternal oxide]

if I were you I'd not touch that BoatRace plugin

[lilac tide]

why

[eternal oxide]

its package names are all wrong

[lilac tide]

ah

[eternal oxide]

you will have to spend so much time just fixing every package

[lilac tide]

I can't find any other ice boat plugins literally anywhere

Ill just figure it out thanks for warning me tho

[eternal oxide]

Looks like an upto date BoatRace plugin https://github.com/Cmrboy26/SimpleBoatRaces

with releases

[lilac tide]

thanks

[left jay]

hey so when i imported auraskills into my server, why are all the files different and also .ymls instead of .javas?

[sullen marlin]

Because that's source code not a compiled plugin

[left jay]

does it matter which i use in my server?

[drowsy helm]

Yes, it need to be compiled

[left jay]

alright, but what if i copy over the source code into the compiled code's folder? would the code i acutally want not turn into the compiled code?

[drowsy helm]

No, you have to compile it yourself

[remote swallow]

You would need to use a build system to compile it

[drowsy helm]

Auraskills comes compiled, just download that

[wet breach]

sometimes, but not always. Typically requires some fixing to get it to work

[left jay]

yeah i did but its all .yml files

and i dont really know how to work with those

[drowsy helm]

Where are you downloading it from

It's a jar

or are you trying to make your own modifications?

[left jay]

yeah that
and i downloaded it on modrinth, ran it on my server, then opened the resulting folder

[drowsy helm]

You just downloaded the configurations then

https://github.com/Archy-X/AuraSkills

clone it from github

[left jay]

ok, so when put the cloned folder into my plugins folder, the server can run it, and i can edit it as if it were a normal plugin right?

[drowsy helm]

No you still have to compile the code

I would really recommend watching a video on java basics and how to compile a jar

[trim lake]

HI, I have some coding practice question. When Im creating object based on file data. Should I create the object and just give that data true constructor or is just better to give constructor the file and get that data and assain fields insde the object it self? Constructor is kinda long bcs of that lol. Its mineable block so then Im saving that to map if all is set.

[left jay]

alr i got it, thanks

[drowsy helm]

If i'm understanding whta you're saying, its better to assign variables from constructor or a builder method

or just serialize is properly

[trim lake]

Basicly I have minable block witch have some location, maxHP, drops... and other thinks. Those thinks can be set in config file. I was thinking about 1 method:

new MinableBlock(Fie file){
#Read file 
hp = file.getHP()
}

Or just this:

new MinableBlock(int hp, Location location){
this.hp = hp
this.location = location
}

I never used some builder method so I will need to lookup some example for that.

[drowsy helm]

Just use Chunk NBT

[trim lake]

I need that to be editable true config file so I cant

my question is just if its better to doit with 1st or 2nd method, what is better coding practice

[drowsy helm]

second one

First doesn't follow SOLID principles

[trim lake]

thanks, thats how Im doing it but constructor kinda starting to be rly big lol, so I should add some another way to do that.

[mortal vortex]

If you dont know how to work with ymls, what makes you think source files would be any easier?

[left jay]

Because the source files on the GitHub were all java files. The ones that I was looking at at the time were exclusively .yml files. It's not that I don't know how to work with .yml files necessarily, the best I've got is editing a config.yml, but I wasn't even sure there was any code in there to mess with

[mortal vortex]

Alright.

[spare prism]

hello. im trying to make items stay on a block using armour stands, but for some items it is too much to put them with a 1 block of y offset and they get stuck into the block. why doesn't it work when I try to add an y offset that is less than 1? it just seems to change nothing

        Vector offset = new Vector(0, 0, 0);
        if (ItemUtils.isSimilarIgnoreLore(itemToPut, SimsItem.WOODOO_DOLL, true)) {
            offset = new Vector(0, 1, 0);
        } else if (ItemUtils.isSimilarIgnoreLore(itemToPut, SimsItem.BLOOD_BAG, true)) {
            offset = new Vector(0, 0.5, 0);
        } else if (ItemUtils.isSimilarIgnoreLore(itemToPut, SimsItem.BONE, true)) {
            offset = new Vector(0, 0.5, 0);
        } else if (ItemUtils.isSimilarIgnoreLore(itemToPut, SimsItem.OCCULTISM_AMULET, true)) {
            offset = new Vector(0, 0.5, 0);
        }

        ritualTable.setContainedItem(player, itemToPut, offset);

    public void setContainedItem(Player player, ItemStack item, Vector offset) {
        this.containedItem = item;

        Location location = block.getLocation().clone().toBlockLocation().toCenterLocation().setDirection(player.getLocation().subtract(block.getLocation()).toVector());

        itemArmorStand = location.getWorld().spawn(location.subtract(offset), ArmorStand.class, stand -> {
            stand.setAI(false);
            stand.setVisible(false);
            stand.setBasePlate(false);
            stand.setCustomName("ritual_table_item");
            stand.setCustomNameVisible(false);
        });

        itemArmorStand.getEquipment().setHelmet(item);
    }

Hello, where did CraftItemStack go with spigot 1.21.4 and what should I use instead?

[blazing ocean]

it went nowhere?

https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/browse/src/main/java/org/bukkit/craftbukkit/inventory/CraftItemStack.java

[rich cradle]

dependencies {
    compileOnly project(":common")
    compileOnly("org.spigotmc:spigot:1.21.4-R0.1-SNAPSHOT") {
        exclude group: "com.mojang", module: "*"
    }
}

but

for some reason, CraftItemStack is shown as from version 1.21.3, but since 1.21.4 it doesn't exist at all.

[blazing ocean]

well, have you run buildtools?

[rich cradle]

nope

I'll try it with him now.

[blazing ocean]

you need to run BT if you want to access internals

[rich cradle]

thx

then I just need to use spigot on the way out.jar as a dependency when compileOnly?

[blazing ocean]

no, BT publishes spigot to your local maven

so refresh gradle

[smoky oak]

is https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/event/world/LootGenerateEvent.html called when you try to open a naturally generated loot chest

[rich cradle]

thanks

[sullen marlin]

I would think so, but try and see

[rich cradle]

I compiled version 1.21.4 and updated gradle, but nothing has changed. I still don't have access to 1.21.4 methods.

[blazing ocean]

did you press the reload gradle button in IJ

[robust helm]

bumb

[blazing ocean]

don't use both api and implementation

api is enough

[robust helm]

but implementation only doesnt expose it for some reason

[blazing ocean]

which is why you use api

[rich cradle]

yeap

[robust helm]

oh right

but api doesnt work with shading into the jar

or maybe a different issue but i get NoSuchMethodException

[blazing ocean]

shadow also shades api configurations

[robust helm]

weird

[blazing ocean]

take a look at your shaded jar

[robust helm]

not at home rn

[rich cradle]

why you can't send screenshots here, you understand, it makes everything difficult...

[blazing ocean]

?img

[undone axle]

Can't send images? That's because you're not verified! Use !verify to complete verification.
Alternatively, you can upload screenshots to any image hosting site and share the link.

Here's some screenshot utilities that you can use to upload images.
Lightshot: https://prnt.sc
Imgur: https://imgur.com/upload
Flameshot: https://flameshot.org

[robust helm]

is there any other possible cause for the exception?

[blazing ocean]

i mean, are you relocating it?

[rich cradle]

!verify

[undone axle]

Usage: !verify <forums username>

[rich cradle]

!verify ItsNayzu

[robust helm]

i hope i do, im not sure it works tho

[undone axle]

This account is already verified!

[rich cradle]

f

wtf

Why can't I get verification on my account?

[blazing ocean]

well you can also use image sites

[sullen marlin]

because that account is already verified on @balmy cliff

[blazing ocean]

show your entire buildscript

[sullen marlin]

why do you need CraftItemStack anyway

[robust helm]

uh dont have it on github yet

i can send it later

[rich cradle]

This is my old account that I lost access to.

[blazing ocean]

it's hard to help without knowing the entire buildscript :p

[robust helm]

true. ill look into it later

[rich cradle]

Can you give me a verification role, just please, so that I can send pictures?

[blazing ocean]

.

[sullen marlin]

no you need to email support from your forum account email to get the verification reset // see what rad said

[spare prism]

it doesn't subtract the offset at all for some reason

[short pilot]

hey intellectuals I seek your wisdom again

how could I go about, in a custom factions plugin, have custom mobs created that are friendly to said faction members but not others?
And of course only targeting players

My past custom mobs attempts also never save between server restarts so I'd like to know how to do that

[mental drum]

Still need help?

[spare prism]

yes

it doesn't work even like that:

    public void setContainedItem(Player player, ItemStack item, Vector offset) {
        this.containedItem = item;

        Location location = block.getLocation().clone().toBlockLocation().toCenterLocation().setDirection(player.getLocation().subtract(block.getLocation()).toVector());
//        Location locationWithOffset = location.clone().subtract(offset);
        Location locationWithOffset = location.clone();
        locationWithOffset.setX(locationWithOffset.getX() - offset.getX());
        locationWithOffset.setY(locationWithOffset.getY() - offset.getY());
        locationWithOffset.setZ(locationWithOffset.getZ() - offset.getZ());

        System.out.println("offset: " + offset.getX() + " " + offset.getY() + " " + offset.getZ());

        itemArmorStand = location.getWorld().spawn(locationWithOffset, ArmorStand.class, stand -> {
            stand.setAI(false);
            stand.setVisible(false);
            stand.setBasePlate(false);
            stand.setCustomName("ritual_table_item");
            stand.setCustomNameVisible(false);
        });

        itemArmorStand.getEquipment().setHelmet(item);

        System.out.println("location: " + LocationUtil.toString(location));
        System.out.println("location with offset: " + LocationUtil.toString(locationWithOffset));
        System.out.println("armourstand current: " + LocationUtil.toString(itemArmorStand.getLocation()));
    }

[short pilot]

if anyone could take a look at me question later 🦜 that would be cool 😢

[smoky anchor]

Depends on how those "custom mobs" work, but mobs and players in one Team will not attack eachother.

[chrome beacon]

^^ That or you use nms goals to make them behave like you want

For them to persist properly it's up to you to track their position and respawn them on chunk load and despawn on unload

        for (OfflinePlayer guildMember : guild.getPlayers().keySet()) {
            log(guildMember.getName());
            if (!guildMember.isOnline()) continue;
            sendMessage((Player) guildMember, plugin.lang.getGuildChatFormat()
                    .replace("%player_name%", sender.getName()).replace("%message%", message)
                    , false);
        }

to start off, there are 2 guild members and they are both online
a message is sent and both of them receive it (the log line prints both their names too). good.
one of them leaves, and then rejoins the game
a message is sent and only the one who didnt log out gets the message. the log line still prints both their names
im checking whether the offlineplayer is online, and since both of them are in both cases, why does the message only get sent to both of them in the first case?

[eternal oxide]

do not store/reference Player objects, use their UUID

get a new Player object when you need it

[misty ingot]

thats why i stored OfflinePlayer
but welp, guess i gotta store only UUID

        for (OfflinePlayer guildMember : guild.getPlayers().keySet()) {
            log(guildMember.getName());
            if (!guildMember.isOnline()) continue;
            log("2 "+guildMember.getName());
            sendMessage((Player) guildMember, plugin.lang.getGuildChatFormat()
                    .replace("%player_name%", sender.getName()).replace("%message%", message)
                    , false);
        }

in the second case, even the second log line here prints both their names, but only the one guy gets the message

[eternal oxide]

Don;t cast the offline player to Player, use teh getPlayer() method in OfflinePlayer

[misty ingot]

i see.

it did not work

guildMember#getPlayer() instead of (Player) guildMember
made no difference

man. am i gonna have to switch it all out for UUIDs

[eternal oxide]

the UUID never changes (unless your server is offline)

so just get a new Player object from the OfflinePlayer getUniqueId()

[misty ingot]

ye ik but i was hoping OfflinePlayer alone would be fine

[eternal oxide]

it shoudl be

unless you are storing a Player reference somewhere and retaining a stale reference

[misty ingot]

i think im gonna switch over to UUIDs for the sake of my own sanity

[eternal oxide]

a new Player object is created each login, so logging out and logging back in means the original Player object is invalid

UUID is safest

[pseudo hazel]

or I think when a player dies

but not sure

[blazing ocean]

no

[eternal oxide]

same object when they die, but they are temporarily removed from teh player map

[misty ingot]

alright, switched to UUIDs

works perfectly

[quaint mantle]

Is it okay to develop a string parser based on the GraalVM Scripting API in my plugin? I'm worried that there might be issues regarding resource usage or optimization.

Hi, I'm looking for a way to use NMS on a large range of versions, my project has multiple modules and i'll handle the versions that way, I'm struggling to find a way to actually NMS, any ideas?

[split gull]

kk thanks

[split gull]

this is for maven, im using gradle, is there an equivalent?

[remote swallow]

idk of any guides that exist for gradle but its not hard, similar setup but parent shades submodules of nms vers using project('tag)

[split gull]

alright, thanks a lot

[robust helm]

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

[robust helm]

wait do i need to publish the shadedJar?

[blazing ocean]

you mean for publishing to maven?

i heard it's bad practice, but tbh no idea, but shadow shades transitively from my experience

[robust helm]

yea

[split gull]

hey, im using it right now: https://github.com/patrick-choe/mojang-spigot-remapper
but im having some trouble:

1. which of these files is the one to use for the mojang mappings? (this is the output of buildtools)

2. is there a way to change the path of the remap task?

[misty ingot]

if i have a string like

"(3*5)+7"
how can i convert this into an actual formula that i can calculate the value of and return, say in this case, 22
(the string may or may not have spaces)

[split gull]

@remote swallow sorry for the ping in case it annoys you, if so let me know and i wont do it again

[blazing ocean]

use some math parser

[remote swallow]

,pings fine, you dont need to use any of the bt files for anything, just setup the task. if you use something to rename the jar output you need to tell the remap task that

[split gull]

from my experience the best way to handle math expressions is to have one method to do the following
if parentheses are present: replace the whole thing with a recursive call to this same method
else: parse the math

[blazing ocean]

https://github.com/expr4j/expr4j

[misty ingot]

i think its time to copy parts of my parser from the time i made a programming language

[misty ingot]

or use that

[split gull]

hey, somebody really good with HikariCP dependency? I have a problem, one dude help me to use this database dependency instead of the "basic" one from java. I manage it to work, but now i am getting this error: https://pastes.dev/BHMpqFoZdJ

in all methods i am closign the connection after getting what i want, here i will send you the config:

what do u mean? can you help me with that?

[remote swallow]

read this #help-development message

whats the repo for this

for pom.xml

[remote swallow]

none

its on central im guessing

[misty ingot]

central has upto v0.0.3

latest is v1.0

I know Trial Chambers and the Vaults are relatively new, but is there a way I can see what Vaults players have claimed?

-# Really new to plugin development, so any help would be massive, thanks

[river oracle]

No that data is stored on the Vaults not the player

You'd need to track it yourself

With either a database or player pdc

?pdc

[undone axle]

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

[granite pond]

Let me rephrase:
The Vaults remember the player, or else they would allow a player to reclaim the loot of said vault.
Is there a way to extract that information in a usable format

[river oracle]

If it's not in the java docs no probably not

?jd-s

[undone axle]

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

[river oracle]

I can't find anything

[granite pond]

724, 6, -3632 has the following block data: {z: -3632, y: 6, config: {key_item: {id: "inecraft:ominous_trial_key", count: 1}, loot_table: "inecraft:chests/trial_chambers/reward_ominous"}, id: "inecraft:vault", server_data: {rewarded_players: [[I; 145043703, 131353225, -1271894333, 1934907291]], state_updating_resumes_at: 45932790L}, x: 724, shared_data: {}}

Ignoring the fact that I have to fix my console for not spitting all info, the data I need is stored in the block itself under server_data: {rewarded_players: []}

[river oracle]

Yeah we don't have api exposed for that it looks like

[granite pond]

darn, I'll have to figure it out then

[kind hatch]

Wonder if it can be exposed easily.

[river oracle]

Probably can

That api is pretty blegh doesn't cover everything

[granite pond]

Alright, I don't expect any code out of this ask, I'm just asking if it's possible with the current APIs:

• Detect when a player is within a structure, such as a Nether Fortress or Trial Chamber
• Check for certain blocks within that structure, such as Vaults
• Interaction Entity support.
  • I would need to summon them at specific locations with specific sizes with a glowing effect

what am i doing wrong?

the docs are quite bare bones so im a little confused

[remote swallow]

are you registering it

[misty ingot]

well about that too

[fluid river]

you also need to check for other events

[misty ingot]

        // papi integration
        if (Bukkit.getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled("PlaceholderAPI")) {
            new PapiExpansion(this).register();
            log("PAPI found. Initiating integration process...");
        } else {
            log("PAPI not found! Skipping integration process...");
        }

papi is installed, it is softdepend and is in loadbefore
but it says papi not found every time
(papi loads in console)

[fluid river]

also use `` pls

[sand hollow]

Which ones?

[fluid river]

Should all be called InventorySomethingEvent

for shift clicks and right clicks

i don't rly remember

[remote swallow]

soft depend and loadbefore

[misty ingot]

cant you check the type of click in that event

[remote swallow]

it shouldnt be loadbefore it should only be a soft-depend

[misty ingot]

well it didnt work then either

[fluid river]

shouldn't it be loadafter

[misty ingot]

i added loadbefore after i saw it didnt work, to test

[remote swallow]

that is softdepend

[misty ingot]

nah its reverse actually

[fluid river]

XD

[misty ingot]

anyway

removing loadbefore doesnt fix it

[fluid river]

i need sree fpigot lessons

[sand hollow]

There is ClickEvent, DragEvent, InteractEvent, MoveItem event.. you know which of these?

[misty ingot]

all sane people use maven

[fluid river]

im not actually sure i used java years ago

[remote swallow]

im sane and i use gradle

[blazing ocean]

that is incorrect

[misty ingot]

yeah rad i saw the link on your profile

[fluid river]

never used gradle in my life

[misty ingot]

anyway um didnt work

[blazing ocean]

https://gradle-is.simply-the.best :)

[misty ingot]

is load: STARTUP the reason? it shouldnt be right

the docs said nothing about that

[remote swallow]

do you modify worlds for anyhting

[misty ingot]

no

[remote swallow]

remove the line

[misty ingot]

done

[fluid river]

🙂

now try it and see

[remote swallow]

run a clean package again and check

[fluid river]

?tas

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[misty ingot]

works

how

how did load postworld fix it

[fluid river]

never use load startup anymore

[remote swallow]

because it loads before worlds, papi doesnt

[misty ingot]

i c

[fluid river]

unless you are absolutely sure you need it

[granite pond]

I remember there was a way to run a server instance of Minecraft from within IDEA, how can I set that up again?

[misty ingot]

well, time to go crazy with papi

[fluid river]

daddy

[misty ingot]

i just setup a profile which runs my server jar in my test server folder after it puts a copy of the jar in the plugins folder

saves so much time

the console log appears in IDEA terminal

[fluid river]

send him a guide how to set it up

🙂

[fluid river]

also never used IDEA in my life

[misty ingot]

its just a profile if he wants i could copy paste that

[misty ingot]

psychopath behaviour

[fluid river]

eclipse maven

[misty ingot]

eclipse is just too featureless for me to be able to bare it

too plain

[granite pond]

If you want to share the config, I would gladly accept

[misty ingot]

too "i dont put butter on my toast" for me

[fluid river]

well, but it's light and fast and distributed as a zip

[misty ingot]

alright, dms

[blazing ocean]

https://github.com/jpenilla/run-task would be your best bet

however it is paper

[remote swallow]

and gradle

[fluid river]

xd

ebic what's your last plugin

[remote swallow]

oh god i dont even know

probably a comission

[fluid river]

is it any better than Pen is ban

[blazing ocean]

yeah sorry i forgot this discord hated modern things to an incredible level

[remote swallow]

run spigot when

[fluid river]

it's just me

[blazing ocean]

sploon™

[fluid river]

also using old netbeans with Swing

[kind hatch]

Can the PDC grab vanilla values or does it only work with custom data put into it?

[remote swallow]

it can read stuff in the pdc container with namespaced keys it can create afaik

[fluid river]

before pdc everything was stored in world file afair

[remote swallow]

you could technically just insert something random into pdc with data merge but its pointless

[misty ingot]

EEEEEEEE my brain

my brain is making that sound is that normal

[fluid river]

and now pdc is like separate thing for plugins to use

[pseudo hazel]

its just a section of the item meta

[fluid river]

after you look at plugins i made it will produce more e's

[fluid river]

not only

[misty ingot]

currently working on my biggest plugin yet
and my fingies huwt 😦

[pseudo hazel]

skill issue

[remote swallow]

get the statistic plugin

[blazing ocean]

I've never had my fingers hurt from coding before lmao

[misty ingot]

agree

i already have statistic and wakatime

[remote swallow]

whats the java real line count

[misty ingot]

1618

6 hours logged on wakatime today

[remote swallow]

light work

[fluid river]

i swear pen is ban was like 1000

[misty ingot]

well most of the finger hurting is from the gah damn messages.yml file

[blazing ocean]

1.6k loc is nothing

[remote swallow]

code configs >>>>>

[misty ingot]

i know, the last lua project i made had 12k LOC

[pseudo hazel]

statistic plugin?

[misty ingot]

but its a bit for a single day right

[blazing ocean]

I have 56 minutes for the past two days

Adn about 500 hours of kotlin in the past year

[misty ingot]

because thats what heroes do

[remote swallow]

i have 44 minutes today and 50 minutes yesterday

[misty ingot]

i wanna learn kotlin so i can also dip my feet in android app dev for fun but i just cant be bothered to learn another forkin language

[misty ingot]

well i have insane motivation rn, watch my numbers drop to the floor in a week

[gentle nexus]

would soming like
public enum enumname{enum1(Material.DIAMOND); }
work ?
cause uh it isnt for me
also Material isnt importing for me at all which is also weird

[remote swallow]

i have a solid 720 hours total on waka

[fluid river]

no

[blazing ocean]

update intellij

[misty ingot]

?tryitandsee

[fluid river]

tas*

[misty ingot]

racist.

[gentle nexus]

it doesnt thats why

[fluid river]

just brutally import it

[gentle nexus]

mainly Material isnt importing so i cant try it

[remote swallow]

?tryandsee

[undone axle]

https://tryitands.ee/

[misty ingot]

also plez use ``

[remote swallow]

?codeblock

[undone axle]

You can use the discord code block format to display code or just text in a more pleasing way:
```java
public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
@Override
public void onEnable() {

}

}```
Becomes:

public class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {

    }
}```

[pseudo hazel]

so then you answered your own question

[misty ingot]

codeblock is easier on the eyes

[blazing ocean]

i have like 650 tbh

[misty ingot]

public psa over, back to papi integration

[blazing ocean]

i only started using it last year

[remote swallow]

when did you join

[blazing ocean]

may 2024

[misty ingot]

i only have waka on IntelliJ otherwise i feel like some guy from waka woulda emailed me to close vscode for once

[remote swallow]

[blazing ocean]

update intellij

[remote swallow]

i joined jan 2, 2023

[blazing ocean]

i have 70 hours less whilst having jjoined a year and a couple months later than you

that's a tad bit concerning isn't it

[misty ingot]

only times i open IntelliJ is either when im getting paid to do it or the 3 am motivation

[remote swallow]

yeah becausei have like 6 month breaks

2023 was my bes tyear

last year was horrible

[granite pond]

Well I'm using both already, so I'll adapt

[granite pond]

Thank you again

[misty ingot]

welcome again

[quasi gulch]

When i set the explosion Radius of a wither skull it stays at 1 and doenst explode like the power i set it to. The debug Message gives me the value i set but idk why the explosion is so small. With the other mob Ghast i did the same and it worked. Anyone has any idea why?

[rough ibex]

Does it work with commands? Might be a mc bug

[quasi gulch]

What Tag is Yield? its not seperate in mcsatcker

Ohh i see that WitherSkull doenst have explosionPower tag only the fireball does. Why is it in the api then?

Is that a mc bug or an API bug?

[mortal hare]

wtf..

Direction class set by strings

[nova notch]

wtf

[mortal hare]

this has to be the most cursed codebase i've ever seen

well at least it partially works

im in a rush of completing uni assignment

so i might as well just refactor this project

[nova notch]

also why's there only one right/left shouldn't it be 2

it's like they said north is up, east is right, etc

[mortal hare]

idk

im refactoring this into enum class

for now

just to cleanup the codebase

i dont wanna mess with angle values as they're used for javafx image rotations for now

[nova notch]

oh it's 2D?

[mortal hare]

yea

[nova notch]

that would make more sense

[mortal hare]

what's even more weird that entity has two directions, one for moving and another for the same? i dont understand it

[kind hatch]

How does one convert the way minecraft stores UUIDs into actual UUIDs?
[I;57179296,818891836,-1944241363,-681820176] --> 03687ca0-30cf-4c3c-8c1d-3b2dd75c3ff0

[mortal hare]

UUID.fromByte maybe?

[paper viper]

you think thats bad?

look at my first "big" java project

https://github.com/PulseBeat02/Coppers-Odds-Shoe-Raffle-Service/blob/master/src/com/pulsebeat02/shoeraffleservice/application/StartingWindow.java

[blazing ocean]

They're four ints, two of them make up the least significant bits and the other make up the most significant bits

[mortal hare]

doesnt it also depend on UUID version of how its being parsed?

[kind hatch]

How do I combine them to get the most and least significant bits?
Addition? A bit shift?

[blazing ocean]

no idea

[pseudo hazel]

@Override
    public @NotNull UUID fromTag(Tag<int[]> tag) {
        int[] data = tag.getValue();
        if (data.length != 4) {
            ConsoleMessenger.bug("Could not parse UUID from file", this);
            return UUID.randomUUID();
        }

        long mostSig = (long)data[0] << 32 | data[1] & 0xFFFFFFFFL;
        long leastSig = (long)data[2] << 32 | data[3] & 0xFFFFFFFFL;

        return new UUID(mostSig, leastSig);
    }```

so yeah bit shift

here is the other way if you are interested ```java
@Override
public @NotNull Tag<int[]> toTag(UUID value) {
int[] data = new int[4];

    long mostSig = value.getMostSignificantBits();
    data[0] = (int)(mostSig >> 32);
    data[1] = (int)mostSig;

    long leastSig = value.getLeastSignificantBits();
    data[2] = (int)(leastSig >> 32);
    data[3] = (int)leastSig;

    return new Tag.IntegerArrayTag(data);
}```

[blazing ocean]

i will never understand bitshifting magic

[mortal hare]

its not that hard, it just looks scary, its arithmetic but on bit level

[kind hatch]

Thank you

[pseudo hazel]

np

[kind hatch]

I had a method to convert uuids to the 4-int format, but I couldn't figure out how to reverse it. :p

[pseudo hazel]

yeah

[kind hatch]

public static int[] toMCFormat(UUID uuid) {
    long least = uuid.getMostSignificantBits();
    long most = uuid.getLeastSignificantBits();

    return new int[]{(int) (least >> 32), (int) least, (int) (most >> 32), (int) most};
}

[pseudo hazel]

its a bit of low level magic

[wet breach]

you are just moving bits over by however many places

just know that the bits don't wrap around. So if you shift to the right, those bits are lost

[pseudo hazel]

yeah, just shift the bits

[blazing ocean]

bitmasking tho

[wet breach]

bitmasking is just where you are assigning meaning to invidual bits

0000-1111

now if you translate this to decimal its very easy to know that you only have values 0-15 and and that is how you get your 0x02 or so notations

so if its 0x08 then that means your mask is 1000

0x08 = 1000
0x07 = 0111
0x08 + 0x07 = 15 = 1111

so not that hard 😛

[pure dagger]

hey, should i make it more readable for users? and how

camps:
  - area:
      corner1: "100,64,100"
      corner2: "200,80,200"
    generation_area:
      corner1: "120,64,120"
      corner2: "150,80,150"
    block_to_generate: "STONE"
    generation_interval: 20

  - area:
      corner1: "300,64,300"
      corner2: "400,80,400"
    generation_area:
      corner1: "320,64,320"
      corner2: "350,80,350"
    block_to_generate: "IRON_ORE"
    generation_interval: 40

[misty ingot]

is it meant to ever be intentionally edited by users?

also why you storin location in string

[pure dagger]

im asking more about camps being a list

[pure dagger]

yes

[misty ingot]

then yes, make it readable

[pure dagger]

but how ?

[noble lantern]

IDK if you still need help for this, but when I wanted to convert the seperate ints into a UUID i looked through minecrafts jar to find the serialization for it (I see you either made the method or found it)

I assume you could do a similar thing and just find how MC is writing that data to the .dat file

[misty ingot]

well its pretty readable already, maybe make the key names a little more descriptive

how can i go about sorting a hashmap by values?

[eternal night]

you dont

hashmaps don't have order

[misty ingot]

doesnt have to be in place

[eternal oxide]

use a SortedMap instead, if you need order

[eternal night]

isn'T that on key

[eternal oxide]

you can use a comparator

[eternal night]

huh

[eternal oxide]

ah no my mistake

[eternal night]

I mean, do you need it fully sorted, do you need only the largest/smallest value?

[eternal oxide]

you are correct its still on key, you are just able to supply a comparator to order how you want

[misty ingot]

i need it fully sorted

descending order

[eternal night]

if you need it fully sorted just, new ArrayList(map.entrySet()) and then Collections.sort that with a comparator grabbing values

(then ask yourself how often you need this sorting and maybe find a better impl of this)

[misty ingot]

well

[kind hatch]

It took longer than expected for me to write this. :p
I am jank

[misty ingot]

its a leaderboard
sorting guilds by the amount of xp they have

[eternal night]

is this for some esoteric fork

or are you planning on PRing this to spigot

[kind hatch]

Probably a PR to spigot

[eternal night]

???

[quasi gulch]

When i get the Target of an EnderDragon 1sec after changing his Phase its always null. Even when he launches a DragoBall the target with enderDragon.getTarget() is null why?

[eternal night]

you have a reference to the vault block entity in that type

as the snapshot

make VaultServerData#getRewardedPlayers public

and just call that

don't do whatever the fuck this is

[pure dagger]

no, i was just asking about it being a list, but thanks

[eternal night]

if you need inspiration, look at any of the other subtypes of CraftBlockEntityState

they all do that the same way

[kind hatch]

I didn't even know VaultServerData existed...

[eternal night]

uuuf

[misty ingot]

i think im going to just rethink how to get the top guilds

fuck maps

or well ill still need maps but, a better approach nonetheless

[paper viper]

What are you trying to make?

[misty ingot]

guild leaderboard sorted by guild xp

Guild is a custom class, which has all the guild data

i want a List<Guild> with the top x guilds by xp

i have a list of all Guild(s)

[paper viper]

Does it must be a List

Can you use a set

[misty ingot]

anything that is ordered and i can iterate over at the end, cuz the rankings cant just move around

[paper viper]

Use a TreeSet

With comparator

[kind hatch]

Frick. Need to remember how to make patch files. :/

[eternal night]

iirc spigot had some weird bash script somewhere

[remote swallow]

cb

or if its a spigot feature, spigot

[blazing ocean]

rebuildPatches.sh

[kind hatch]

rebuildPatches? I only have makePatches and applyPatches

[eternal night]

makePatches then

sorry, rebuildPatches is the paper task

[kind hatch]

Hmm, I wonder why it doesn't work now.
I ran makePatches, but what else do I need to do to test the new CB jar?

I don't typically do these kinds of patches

So I am confused here

[remote swallow]

you dont really need to run make patches till the end

modify what you want, run package/install of cb and test

use cb as a dep in ur build system and the same cb jar as the server

[kind hatch]

Yea, I do that for normal stuff, but is it the same when adding in patches?
Does this just automatically get used?

[remote swallow]

when you want to push to git then makePatches and it will find the new file and make the patch

[kind hatch]

I have already ran makePatches, but I want to test this.
Do I need to make the PR first?

[remote swallow]

you can test without making the pr

all the patch matters for is git, bc you cant put nms on git

[kind hatch]

How though?
I have already made changes to bukkit and installed them.
I modified the net.minecraft VaultServerData file to make the method public.
The impl for CraftVault is now short.

@Override
public Set<UUID> getRewardedPlayers() {
  return getTileEntity().getServerData().getRewardedPlayers();
}

Yet, I get errors when trying to test now.

So what am I missing here?

[remote swallow]

run the install goal on craftbukkit and run craftbukkit as the server

[kind hatch]

Install ran.

Craftbukkit jar I am going to use.

[remote swallow]

if that still doesnt work i have a final idea

[kind hatch]

Error I receive

[eternal night]

clone that set

otherwise people will end up editing that set by acceident, I don't think that is what people want

or at least I wouldn't, maybe md vibes with that

[remote swallow]

reading that error, im confused how ur getting a no such method on bukkit if you installed bukkit too

[eternal night]

the server they run compiles a wrong bukkit version I guess?

just, don't use build tools to build shit there, its ass

[kind hatch]

Hmm, I made the change to clone the set and I recompiled everything and it now works?

Java moment I swear

Oh well, now to do the PR.

Because this is a patch, do I need to exclude the file I added into the nms folder?

[remote swallow]

do not commit nms

of everything you can do, do not commit any nms

only thing that needs pushing is Craft classes + the most recent patch of the nms class

[kind hatch]

How come I don't have a patch file then?

[remote swallow]

run makePatches again, double check its in nms-patches/path/to/nms/file

(makePatches requires the decompile-abcdefg dir from bt passed as an arg)

[worldly ingot]

You need to copy/paste the vanilla file from work/decompile-xxxxxx into the CraftBukkit directory (same package though), make the changes you need to make in the CraftBukkit project, then in the root of the CraftBukkit directory run ./makePatches 'path/to/work/decompile-xxxxxx'

The files in the work directory should stay vanilla. That's how the CraftBukkit scripts know what's changed

Then yeah, don't commit the NMS .java file, you want the generated .patch file instead

[kind hatch]

For some reason when I do that, there aren't any patch files that show up.

[remote swallow]

does it send any output to console?

[worldly ingot]

And did you copy the files from decompile-xxxxxx into CraftBukkit but keep the work files clean?

[kind hatch]

Yes

Wait

I think it made it, but didn't auto add it to git.

[remote swallow]

that might do it

[worldly ingot]

Yeah it's a new patch so you'd have to git add . it (or add it via whatever git program you're using)

[remote swallow]

if you use intellij just right click and git > add

[kind hatch]

There we go

[worldly ingot]

Sick 😎

[remote swallow]

do i see a missing // CraftBukkit

[worldly ingot]

Would rather a PAIL instead

[kind hatch]

So now I just commit those two files and submit it for review?

PAIL?

[remote swallow]

ill let choco explain

[worldly ingot]

+    public Set<UUID> getRewardedPlayers() { // PAIL - package private -> public

[remote swallow]

do pails not get cbnamed

[worldly ingot]

I've always interpreted it as "please add in later" but I don't really know its true meaning lol. We use it for access changes so it can be added to the access transformer at a later date

Nope

[remote swallow]

how many pails actually get added to AT

[worldly ingot]

It's usually done in the next MC update

[worldly ingot]

And yes, that's all you need

You can tack on that comment into your patch manually though. Don't need to edit in source and regenerate. It's already a changed line

[remote swallow]

choco dont hide the fact you write all your patches manually

[worldly ingot]

I definitely did for the first one

I thought that was how git patches worked lol

[remote swallow]

[kind hatch]

There we go. First PR involving patches.
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/bukkit/pull-requests/1094/overview
https://hub.spigotmc.org/stash/projects/SPIGOT/repos/craftbukkit/pull-requests/1533/overview

[remote swallow]

would just like to say 1 word as a comment

javadoc

[worldly ingot]

I'll leave it in the PR as well but the PAIL only has to be in the patch file. No need for it to be in CB 😄

[kind hatch]

Ah, woop

Double woop

[remote swallow]

javadocs are easy to fix, same for the craft class

[worldly ingot]

Also, I don't think it's nullable 🤔 Is it?

[kind hatch]

I think the field can be empty

[worldly ingot]

Seems like it's initialized and kept non-null

[eternal night]

Do note that Collections.unmodifiableSet does not create a copy

[worldly ingot]

Correct

[eternal night]

tho spigot only has snapshots on BEs

so its whatever, mb

[worldly ingot]

Yeah I think it's fine

[eternal night]

Yea, was about to scream given live BE would be rather yucky if that set starts changing

[kind hatch]

Doesn't this field being here on this specific vault and not the other one indicate that this field can be null?
Or is this just an ingame thing on how it displays data?

[eternal night]

no

the codec just emits the default value (empty set) when writing

which is what you are doing when converting that to SNBT

[worldly ingot]

Nullability of a type can't be inferred from the output of its data in SNBT. It's all code, babyyyy 😎

[eternal night]

until mojang changes it

what then HUH, MR API designer

[worldly ingot]

If Mojang chooses to unnecessarily write rewarded_players: [] into their SNBT, I'll eat my own shoe

[remote swallow]

what kind of shoe

bc you could eat a cake shoe and thats no fun

[worldly ingot]

Yeah like one of those "Is it cake!?" things but it's a shoe

[remote swallow]

im voting its the biggest fuck off winter boot cake shoe you can get made

[rugged flower]

Is there an alternative way to get inventory name without me having to rewrite half of my plugin??

[drowsy helm]

If you are trying to make custom inventories, don't use title

[rugged flower]

how can i check then if the currently opened inventory is the specific one im looking for (not type but the custom one)?

[drowsy helm]

You should have a manager which keeps track of all the inventories and match it with that list

https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/a-modern-approach-to-inventory-guis.594005/#post-4772031

check out this resource

[rugged flower]

Thanks! I will take a look at it tomorrow (its like 1am for me rn). Now just of curiosity - Is there an actuall method to get currently opened gui name or is it like completly inaccessible from 1.21+? Because you see im making a plugin for a very very small server and the source you sent seems a bit like an overkill for what im trying to do. And if there is not welp still thanks for the source i will make sure to check it out deeper tmr.

[drowsy helm]

Yes, you can get it from the InventoryView

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/inventory/InventoryView.html

But keep in mind inventory name is the easiest thing to spoof, and there HAVE BEEN massive cases of exploits being used with it

So it's not "overkill" its the correct way of doing it

[rugged flower]

The issue with that is as i showed i get this error

[rugged flower]

im aware of that but the server im talking about is 10~ players which are just one friend group and i assume they wont be trying to cheat on eachother

[drowsy helm]

That's usually a version incompatability problem

[remote swallow]

1.21 has been superceeded by 1.21.1

update

[drowsy helm]

I'm guessing you're using a jar artifact and not maven/gradle?

[rugged flower]

yup

then i am supposed to replace and external jar with a newer version?

if i understand correctly

[drowsy helm]

yes, but Ideally you should be using a proper build tool manager

[remote swallow]

(and you should update your server)

[rugged flower]

not my server. im making plugin for a friend and thats their requirement

[remote swallow]

they should not be running plain 1.21

it has been superceeded by 1.21.1

you are physically not able to build 1.21 you will always build 1.21.1

[spring hawk]

hey i was wondering if its possible to transfer some features from 1 plugin to another. for example there is this combat log plugin i like that has no elytra use while in combat but doesnt kill on log and the other has no elytra off in combat but kills when someone logs out in combat, i was wondering if i could combine the two in some way?

[drowsy helm]

Yes, if you know how to code it's a simple copy paste

[spring hawk]

i do not sadly

[drowsy helm]

Then no

[spring hawk]

do u know if someone is able to do it for me?

[drowsy helm]

If you're really adamant about it, hire a dev to do it

?services

[undone axle]

If you wish to request or offer development/art/building/administration services, please do so at https://www.spigotmc.org/forums/services-recruitment-v2.54/

[drowsy helm]

No ones going to do it for free

[spring hawk]

oh okay i jsut assumed since its as simple as copy and paste

but okay

[wet breach]

milage varies depending on model

[drowsy helm]

Simple in the process, will still take at least an hour of testing

[spring hawk]

ah alright

[remote swallow]

there is most likely a way to make the combat log plugin that doesnt kill on log out kill them on log out

[spring hawk]

yeah i figured but i just dont know how to

so i figured id ask here

[remote swallow]

im guessing it has docs or a support discord that can help better than we can

[wet breach]

or maybe they just didn't want to pay lol

[spring hawk]

m its done by an indemendant developer that doesnt rly speak english that i tried asking

[spring hawk]

yeah i dont have money to pay someone to fix a plugin for me

[remote swallow]

afaik combatlogx is able to do what you want with some configuration

[spring hawk]

ohh ok ill check it out thank you!

[rugged flower]

i tried putting newer version of spigot but it just like doest work at all. Its like it just stopped detecting imports

like makes the entire plugin go to trash kindof doest work

so i have no idea what to do at that point

[remote swallow]

?bootstrap

[undone axle]

Bootstrap Jar
The main spigot-1.18.jar is now a bootstrap jar which contains all libraries. You cannot directly depend on this jar. You should depend on Spigot/Spigot-API/target/spigot-api-1.18-R0.1-SNAPSHOT-shaded.jar, or the entire contents of the bundler directory from your server, or use a dependency manager such as Maven or Gradle to handle this automatically.

Please read the release notes for further information: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/9-years-of-spigotmc-spigot-bungeecord-1-18-1-18-1-release.534760/#post-4305163

[remote swallow]

applies to all version after 1.18 too

[rugged flower]

ahh

that makes

a LOT of sense

where can i get the jar tho

[remote swallow]

run buildtools

?bt

[rugged flower]

thanks i have some errors tho with the build tools i will propablly try fixing them tomorrow because its way to late for it today but that turned out to be very helpfull

Actually i managed to fix it today

Thanks to all of you guys for help it works now have an amazing day!

[vestal vector]

sorry chat i have a noob question. I never been in contact with spigot API, this is my first time. I want to fix an old bukkit plugin then i decompiled it and adapt all outdated code. then i realized that i don't know how to compile it to .jar again correctly because what i get by decompiled are just codes, not a entire project. development document confused me, should i create a new project to copy all code in? what should i do?

[chrome beacon]

Yeah make a new project and move the decompiled code there. Add all dependencies and fix all decompile errors

Then you can start updating

[vestal vector]

well... thank you! i'll try 😄

[short pilot]

hey fellas

how can u make a sidebar

and update it on change of chunk

[main juniper]

How does one post their plugins on spiggot or sell plugins on spiggot?

[summer scroll]

You need to pass the requirements first https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/premium-resource-guidelines.31667/

Once you do that, you will be able to create a resource with "Premium" as the category

[split gull]

Hey, when i use build tools it seems like it has some trouble with some versions
I've tried multiple times, the build is successful but it doesnt put the remappings in the .m2 folder
these are the versions it doesnt do that with: 1.21.2, 1.20.5, 1.20.3, any help?

im only missing those

[summer scroll]

Probably those version is removed because it contains security risk or game breaking stuff, so those version is not recommended to use at all.

[split gull]

so i should just not worry about those?

[summer scroll]

Yes probably

I remembered someone had this issue previously and md_5 answered it directly

[split gull]

ah i see

hey, does this by any chance mean that the nms are the same for those versions?

[quaint mantle]

Quick question, why are players still able to interact with the enchanting table and the anvil as a spectator?
https://paste.md-5.net/ekahokahit.java

[eternal oxide]

Do not cancel an event on MONITOR

[shadow night]

Mostly yes

[sullen marlin]

Yeah there's no reason at all to use the missing versions

[split gull]

Alright, thanks, do you also happen to know if there's a way to use Mojang mappings nms on 1.16.5? (Pre 1.17)

[sullen marlin]

They are client compatible with the newer version, and are usually released only days later/with important fixes

1.17 is only 4.5 years old at this point lol

[split gull]

Yeah I've gone through the list of versions, each missing version will use the other working one

[shadow night]

You'd want to manually remap the jar Ig, Ion think buildtools provided you mojmaps before 1.17 (even though they exist since 1.14)

[split gull]

Yeah they dont

[split gull]

How would I remap the jar? Is there documentation on it?

Or is there a way to give build tools the mappings and it works like that

[sullen marlin]

What are you trying to do

[split gull]

Looking to use nms with Mojang mappings on 1.16.5 and perhaps even older versions, but for now I mainly care about 1.16.5

My plugin supports 1.16.5-1.21.4

[shadow night]

Don't think there is documentation specifically for remapping a spigot jar to mojmaps, but it is certainly possible through an external remapper

[sullen marlin]

You should be able to adapt the sample specialsource pretty easily

You'll just need to grab the Mojang mappings from Mojang

[split gull]

You mean the json file listed in the Minecraft wiki for each update?

[sullen marlin]

Otherwise it should be basically the same, just not automatically installed to maven

[shadow night]

Websites like mcassets actually let you easily download mappings iirc

[split gull]

Alright then, when I get back to my PC I'll try all of these things, thanks guys

[sullen marlin]

Definitely start with the newer versions haha

Or better yet, the api

[summer scroll]

?mappings

[undone axle]

Compare different mappings with this website: https://mappings.dev/

[summer scroll]

uhhh, where's the guide that alex wrote

It didn't help as well

[short pilot]

hey fellas, how can you make a sidebar show up in spigot api

simple question 😭😭

[split gull]

iirc you need to set the tile for any line to show up

[short pilot]

and then update fields ig like current territory of the chunk you are standing in

[kindred valley]

I dont really know

please dont spam this channel lol

[misty ingot]

didnt mean to

[smoky oak]

theres a rather large 1.5.2 modpack i played like 5 years ago

[misty ingot]

the oldest version ive played is 1.7-ish, also a modpack, now discontinued

but that was a long time ago

i dont get it tho, why stick to THAT old a version

[smoky oak]

short answer curiosity

found it in the ftb launcher

[misty ingot]

no no playing it is fine, but actively supporting it is mental

[echo basalt]

TIL me and horses have a lot in common

[misty ingot]

nice joke, i shall steal it

it is the greatest honour i can bestow

[wet breach]

mods add a lot of stuff. updated versions of MC has a lot of stuff now to the point you actually need decent hardware if you want to use everything it provides. 1.7 doesn't have all this which is fine if you intend to use mods anyways since they add the stuff you want to begin with and therefore it is manageable in terms of playing when you add stuff to nothing, versus adding more to what is already a lot

I routinely use versions like 1.7 or 1.8 as a base for custom servers since I don't have to spend time removing unneeded stuff since its not there

[misty ingot]

hm

[wet breach]

however, what I don't support is people coming here wanting support for outdated stuff because they can't figure out how to maintain it lmao

that is annoying

[eternal oxide]

But, but pvp

[wet breach]

yeah, the spam clicky pvper's that can't be bothered to do anything more then that -.-

I never did like mc for pvp and it simply isn't designed for hardcore pvp and I doubt it ever will be

not as long as the client gets to dictate stuff lmao

[eternal oxide]

I didn't pvp but I did like spam clicking after panicking the fuck out when mobs attacked me

Then there was something about jump attackign for more damage or something!? That was all beyond my abilities

[wet breach]

lol

[misty ingot]

i used to do a lot of 1.8 pvp on hypickle but just grew out of it

[amber fjord]

oh believe me, people make it work

i would know

[wet breach]

sure people make it work while pulling their hair out

and then contribute to the bald people population because of it

[amber fjord]

not really

have you seen the smp scene?

[wet breach]

the protocol is simply not designed for it and there is nothing you can do about it unless you have a custom client and fix the protocol

[amber fjord]

oh you mean the way it was coded

yeah for sure

[misty ingot]

how do people go about grabbing the full displaynames of players for their plugins?
say a server owner set some rank prefix or whatever for their player with some plugin and some suffix with another plugin
how would i go about grabbing a player's full displayname (offlineplayer too)

[vestal vector]

sorry for another noob question, i'm new in spigot, do we have a faster way to test debug just like postman to javaweb? i'm just looping compile then put it in a server then join the server to test, i feel dumb and tired now...

[eternal night]

hot reload exists

[sullen canyon]

https://wiki.helpch.at/piggys-barn/java/hot-swapping

[vestal vector]

thank you 🙂 i'll read it now

[wet breach]

do note that hotswapping doesn't work for everything

and sometimes you may need to create your own custom agent or modify an existing one

just depends what you are doing

[echo basalt]

some jdks like it more than others too

[amber fjord]

it might be easiest to depend on those plugins and manually arrange it

[smoky oak]

cough file locks cough
totally not speaking from experience here

[hushed spindle]

when you do Server#getEntity(UUID) i assume this will return null if the given entity is in unloaded areas, right?

and if not, is the area loaded to make the given entity valid again

[misty ingot]

i saw that most plugins use Vault to handle prefixes, so i plan on taking it from vault
but i see vaultAPI's chat#getPlayerPrefix does not take offlineplayer, is it not possible to get the prefix/suffix of offline players?

[smoky oak]

https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/bukkit/org/bukkit/OfflinePlayer.html#getPlayer()

try this

[amber fjord]

You might be able to cast offlineplayer to the method

if not youll just have to pull from the actual saved data

if you cant convert the type i mean

[smoky oak]

pretty sure casting offlineplayer to player causes an exception

wait it doesnt

huh

[misty ingot]

ill try and see

[eternal oxide]

https://github.com/MilkBowl/VaultAPI/blob/8bad2c479f531436b4b0694f5696b501d0afef3e/src/main/java/net/milkbowl/vault/chat/Chat.java#L66

[misty ingot]

ill cast offline to player and see if it works on my private server

[smoky oak]

still recommend the method instead of the cast tho

[eternal oxide]

you can;t cast to player

just use the correct method

[misty ingot]

what is the correct method?

[eternal oxide]

I just posted it

[misty ingot]

oh wait i see it

im blind

i literally had your link open

[smoky oak]

player is subinterface of offlineplayer
cant you go
if(! offlinePlayer instanceof Player player) return
//do something with player

[misty ingot]

alright well if the user's permissions plugin uses vault then rainbows and sunshine otherwise too bad

[amber fjord]

oh yeah i forgot that one existed

[eternal oxide]

no, if the player is not online no Player object exists

[amber fjord]

offlineplayer.getPlayer()

smh

[eternal oxide]

only works if teh player is online

[amber fjord]

oh

[misty ingot]

which is why i didnt use it already

[smoky oak]

getplayerprefix is marked public

so just call that

[amber fjord]

Yeah you might just have to construct it using the logic and data from the other plugins

[misty ingot]

    public static String getPlayerDisplayName(Player player) {
        return plugin.vaultChat.getPlayerPrefix(player)+player.getName()+plugin.vaultChat.getPlayerSuffix(player);
    }
    public static String getOfflinePlayerDisplayName(OfflinePlayer player) {
        return plugin.vaultChat.getPlayerPrefix(null, player)+player.getName()+plugin.vaultChat.getPlayerSuffix(null, player);
    }

i just did this

now to check it

[smoky oak]

hey qq if writing an api is it worth doing extremely detailed error handling?

[eternal oxide]

depends

[smoky oak]

go on

[eternal oxide]

if its a recoverable error, yes

if not, pass it on

[smoky oak]

what about assuming default values?

[eternal oxide]

like?

[smoky oak]

inclination = 0

this is for location math nonsense

gods do i hate vector math

[eternal oxide]

defaults are fine, so long as you are not retunign it for ALL errors

[smoky oak]

ah

what about a pair<Severity, value> (record?) as return value?

[eternal oxide]

like, player does not exist should not return a default value

[smoky oak]

oh i have an idea

[eternal oxide]

if you are returning an error you may as well just throw the exception

[smoky oak]

make everything an object, which has to be instantiated with the desired error level / error handling type?

ie, throw / assume defaults for example

[eternal oxide]

if I were using an API I'd rather know teh specific error rther than something you have wrapped it up in

[misty ingot]

works perfectly

les goo

[smoky oak]

exceptions or runtimeexceptions?

[misty ingot]

anyone whos using a chat system that doesnt use vault can cry me a river im not supporting anything other than vault for prefixes rn

[kind hatch]

@granite pond https://hub.spigotmc.org/javadocs/spigot/org/bukkit/block/Vault.html#getRewardedPlayers()
Just added in recent commit.
If you are using latest, just rerun BuildTools and voila.

[eternal oxide]

not really much difference

[smoky oak]

i mean what you throw to the calling plugin ll

coz it means you have to handle it there if its not runtime

[eternal oxide]

you throw the original error

[smoky oak]

fair enough

[eternal oxide]

exception

making changes to it will only make teh dev and your life harder

they report an error to you, you then have to cross reference your error to try and figure out the original exception

[smoky oak]

what if its not an actual exception, but rather a 'the data you gave me is malformed'?

[eternal oxide]

theres always a suitable exception, or you create your own

throwing yoru own exception is fine from your own API

[smoky oak]

noted

[eternal oxide]

so long as its not being used to control the flow of the code

[smoky oak]

can you elaborate on that?

[eternal oxide]

in your example of malformed data..

if you create an exception for MalformedDataException it should simply be an exception, they should not use it as a type of switch

[unreal willow]

excuse me, does anyone know how to encrypt php code? (closed source)

[smoky oak]

oh jesus i have the image of someone iteratively inputting data until it no logner throws an exceptoin

[eternal oxide]

lol

[wet breach]

To create a custom exception in Java, follow these steps: 

    Create a new class that extends Exception or one of its subclasses.
        If you want your exception to be checked (meaning the compiler forces you to handle it), extend Exception.
        If you want your exception to be unchecked (like RuntimeException), extend RuntimeException. 

    Provide constructors.
        You'll typically want to provide at least two constructors:
            A no-argument constructor.
            A constructor that takes a string message as an argument. 

[smoky oak]

u dont need to bc a web browser does not return php, but rather the website that php generates

[wet breach]

encrypt php code?

thats a new one for me lmao

[eternal oxide]

are you thinking of encrypting php code you are going to distribute to prevent the customer reading it?

[unreal willow]

useful, but i share my project but don't want others to edit it, thanks

[smoky oak]

git blame

[eternal oxide]

yeah, not going to happen

[chrome beacon]

People will edit it

[unreal willow]

GOOD

[wet breach]

and distribute it too

[eternal oxide]

php code has to be readable by the php parser so can't be encrypted.

does anyone have a server for datapack help?

[wet breach]

lol

only because you didn't really have much of a choice since odds are your house is probably like 200 years old XD

[graceful sphinx]

ty

[smoky oak]

nah. we still build them outta bricks
the tradeoff of course is that we cant just copy paste them, they actually take years to build

[wet breach]

true

[eternal oxide]

Our slaves only knew how to make them out of bricks

[smoky oak]

were civilized here elgar, we call them 'working class'

[eternal oxide]

[graceful sphinx]

Oh and btw we do houses out of bricks so if there is a fire like in LA houses would survive : D we dont do houses out of paper, oh almost forgot or we do out of chirpici too, which its very strong material

Brick houses don't survive earthquakes as well so you'd need to account for that

I've seen one eclipse in my lifetime and that was around 1999 in teh UK

wierd as heck

[smoky oak]

partial or total

i wish the one here wouldve been total, it wouldve looked so much more amazing

[eternal oxide]

pretty sure it was a totl

yep it was a tot

i dont remember a time when we got a total solar eclipse in my lifetime

[smoky oak]

i heard the next one in europe is in like six decades

[eternal oxide]

If you get teh chance I'd recomend it, its quite the show

[misty ingot]

the next one here is in 2034 and its going to only barely scrape by my country

[eternal oxide]

next looks to be in 2026

[misty ingot]

i dont even plan to be here that long

[eternal oxide]

closest to you would be Spain

[smoky oak]

yea no

i dont even know the language

[misty ingot]

you dont know spainglish? bummer

[eternal oxide]

it will reach from Iceland to spain and cover most of teh UK upto 96% in Cornwall (South West)

I live in SW UK so I'll be waiting for it

that means 20:34
