Why do they want to add so many new types of classes
?
eternal night
Basically a migration issue iirc
e.g. you cannot just make everything fully primitive without breaking old java code
so to get as much improvement in the existing code-base value classes do pretty much as much as possible without breaking it
tender shard
Why do they want to add so many new types of classes
what other "types of classes" are going to be added?
eternal night
value and primitive classes
quiet ice
Plus we got records recently
tender shard
I should google that later today and find out more about it
eternal night
tender shard
records are nice but also not really thaaat useful
records are nice to have but don't really add new functionality
quiet ice
They are just syntactic sugar more or less
quaint mantle
records are great. The way of how objects in oop should look like
grim ice
how can I construct an entity
if i wanna construct an entity object from another entity
do i just new Entity, then override the getter methods
with the data i have from another entity
olive lance
if i am creating an array and filling manually with {} how can i only add an element with an if
eternal night
you cannot
arrays are fixed size
the only way would be just an else tree with all the initial values and the conditional one
or you just use an array list
grim ice
can i like
get the entity
spawn it somewhere
and then
access it by unique id
so it actually exists
and i have a copy of it i can use
if i need it i can just teleport
actually thats a very shitty method ill forget that
patent karma
guys,sorry for interrupting,if I have a config file like this:
config:
value1:
---------
value2:
--------
value3:
how can I get the list of these values😁 😁 😁
waxen plinth
ConfigurationSection section = config.getConfigurationSection("config");
section.getKeys(false); // will return all keys in the section, like value1, value2, value3```You've asked this like 3 times while I've been in the channel
I don't know how you would do that other than just doing it all manually
grim ice
wdym "all manually"
waxen plinth
Copying all the properties over one by one
waxen plinth
No
brave sparrow
Not new entity
waxen plinth
Calling World#spawnEntity and copying all the properties over
waxen plinth
Attributes, health, potion effects, equipment, custom name, inventory contents
grim ice
copying it to what
waxen plinth
Another entity
brave sparrow
You have an original entity A, you spawn a new one B, and then you copy all the properties from A onto B one by one
grim ice
I have to do that for every EntityType?
as some entities have options other entities dont
tender shard
I have to do that for every EntityType?
what do you even need it for
waxen plinth
Not every individual entity type
grim ice
I want to copy an entity
waxen plinth
You could check stuff like instanceof InventoryHolder
patent karma
```java
ConfigurationSection section = config.getConfigurationSection("config");...
thanks😁
waxen plinth
I want to copy an entity
But for what purpose
grim ice
But for what purpose
well
waxen plinth
Not instanceof for the endpoint interfaces
grim ice
im making a Photocopier
waxen plinth
The intermediary ones that compose the properties of it
For example, InventoryHolder for inventories, LivingEntity for armor contents and attributes
red sedge
Do I have to add a plugin to depend in plugin.yml to work with it?
grim ice
thats fucking annoying tbh
waxen plinth
Do I *have* to add a plugin to depend in plugin.yml to work with it?
No but you really should
valid solstice

thanks
eternal night
you will need to shade the NBT-API
red sedge
you will need to shade the NBT-API
why?
eternal night
because the server does not include it ?
eternal night
the other creates a replica from bytes
eternal night
wat
grim ice
for .clone()
eternal night
no
eternal night
I guess run your head into that for the learning journey
eternal night
you cannot get that entity into the server
eternal night
you cannot spawn an existing "entity" instance
eternal night
the entity instance is created by the spawn method
grim ice
oooooo
eternal night
when you call "spawn" internally it creates it in the world
grim ice
cant i remove the entity it points to
eternal night
what
eternal night
you would have to remove the internal NMS entity representation from the world
and spawn in your cloned one
grim ice
ffs
hexed hatch
in the time you spend trying to toil with cloning entities using only the spigot api and nms, you could write a fairly simple universal entity serializer/deserializer with a shit ton of instanceof checks
by just getting all the properties of the entity and creating a new one
grim ice
wdym instance of checks
so it gets the methods in it
then their return type
then construct the object
thats sort of complicated tho
and no im not using nms
hexed hatch
say it's an InventoryHolder, get the contents and save it
if it's instanceof horse, get the horse-specific traits and save them
it's going to be tedious but it's safer
grim ice
thats gonna take weeks
hexed hatch
no it won't, it'll take an afternoon at best and chances are you won't need all of the information that an entity has
hexed hatch
what the fuck does looking good mean
grim ice
pretty code
hexed hatch
that's a shit goal to be honest
and if you think working with nms and reflection is "pretty code"
grim ice
i wont use nms
and at least i dont wanna
do 70 instance of checks
thats just too
weird
there must be another option
eternal night
:5head:
grim ice
paper api wont work with spigot
hexed hatch
nope
eternal night
👀
hexed hatch
but once you have it, it should just do the thing as you want it to
hexed hatch
hm?
grim ice
and at what location
grim ice
like when copying to the entity
i wanna make a pokemon sort of thing
right click something
then it gets copied
hexed hatch
So right now I think you should worry about copying entities
grim ice
I wanna also make it a library
hexed hatch
just have a debug command right now that puts it at your feet
grim ice
yeah
hexed hatch
and you can figure out how to implement it in a pretty way later
eternal night
using the original entities type ?
eternal night
Yes
hexed hatch
yeah
that might be an important detail lol
I had a similar project a while back that only dealt with horses, pets, and animals
Looking back at the project, I made it unnecessarily complicated
grim ice
I mean it can be done automatically
probably with some reflection
but it will take longer with reflection than manually prob
@hexed hatch btw what about some fields
like isDead
and stuff
actually isDead wont make sense
but other stuff that dont have a setter
like isOnGround
hexed hatch
you're going to want all the generic shit like health, max health, I'd go ahead and get every attribute it has, name, etc
There's a lot you don't need like whether it's on fire, or is dead, or it's oxygen level
grim ice
ic
viral crag
most stuff is the same, just template it
grim ice
actually
wtf am i doing
the item should store the data
i get the entity from
@hexed hatch i got some good idea
make a loop
to get every single method on entity
that has set in it
viral crag
not the greatest idea unless you are going to push it async
grim ice
or actually it wont work that good tbh
hexed hatch
Seems excessive
grim ice
not the greatest idea unless you are going to push it async
nah I was gonna store the method names
nah dude i was gonna store the method names
in a list or some sort
hexed hatch
I’d just decide on what generic fields you need for all entities and then throw on the entity type specific fields after that
grim ice
but how would i store the data in a player
hexed hatch
Again, there’s alot of things that you don’t really need that won’t make a difference
PDC
or files
hexed hatch
Create a PersistentDataType for this
But right now I’d focus on getting this into something you can deserialize and serialize as a string
grim ice
i have an idea
hexed hatch
Once you get that together, you can worry about where you’re going to store it, whether that’s PDC or a file
hexed hatch
I think you really need to buckle down and focus on the actual entity copying part then work out these trivial design choices
grim ice
then
eternal night
that will definitely work out for things like the entity equipment
grim ice
removing set from its name
grim ice
that will definitely work out for things like the entity equipment
aw
do i just
use nms
grim ice
wdym properly create logic
eternal night
like, you won't be able to automate this
but you could have some data logic that is responsible for serializing and de-serializing a single properly
viral crag
make a library after the code works
grim ice
making a library off 2 lines of code?
if i just use paperapi
whats the point of using my library
since its just using paperapi
viral crag
is that not the same question for every mod/variant ?
red sedge
why not store item-data as a string? thats a bad idea but it is a way to do
eternal night
wat
red sedge
so like
entity name nbt and other stuff, you can store it as a string
and restore the values from that string
so like
idk
entityname;damage;speed;etc;
as a string
eternal night
perfect data format 🙏
grim ice
I can do
red sedge
perfect data format 🙏
as i said, bad idea, but it is a way
viral crag
is there a preferred file access method under spigot?
red sedge
kind of like how itemsstacks are stored
red sedge
but that wont really solve it will it
i mean just store all the data you need to remake the entity
it is not the most efficient
but it is a way
grim ice
i mean just store all the data you need to remake the entity
this just screamed "no" at ur suggestion
red sedge
thats literally just
grim ice
some entities have their data
red sedge
entity ids...
red sedge
some entities have their data
store it as an extra data
viral crag
thats the entities, not the data to make them
grim ice
yes but i will have to do it for each of them
viral crag
yes but i will have to do it for each of them
only if you wish to punish yourself
grim ice
tbh im doing it without nms because im way too lazy to build buildtools for each version
red sedge
sure
grim ice
i should do it with nms but like
viral crag
you really need to realize you are one level too low
red sedge
this just screamed "no" at ur suggestion
you asked for a way, i gave you a way
grim ice
ig
red sedge
you could make a class for each entity
and setup like a list of extra arguments
and loop through that for the extras
it should be simple enough
grim ice
ill just build buildtools probably
or wait
cant i just
teleport the entity to somewhere really far in the sky
and put a pdc on it
that identifies the unique item that right clicked it
then when the item is right clicked just teleport it
back
i know chunk will be unloaded
but u can use the unique id
of the mob, right?
hexed hatch
I don't think there's much point in saving the entity's unique id if you're just cloning it
grim ice
then teleport it when he needs it
viral crag
you need a piece of paper and a pencil
hexed hatch
what's stopping you from just putting the entity in a stasis under the world
grim ice
xy problem moment:
hexed hatch
and then teleporting it out
hexed hatch
as needed
grim ice
so cool
eternal night
hexed hatch
if you're just moving an entity around then there's no point in going through all this
eternal night
Well without the copying part
will moving the entity under the world really be that good of an idea tho
grim ice
lol pog
hexed hatch
will moving the entity under the world really be that good of an idea tho
not really
eternal night
like, you will need to load its chunk (and this is spigot sooo, on the main thread)
grim ice
actually 100%
eternal night
bruh you will be either teleporting entities with the player to whatever location
grim ice
or
eternal night
or you have to chunk load
hexed hatch
you'll have to consider the fact that you'll have just a bunch of entities clustered under one spot in the world
which won't be a good thing
eternal night
or you keep the spawn chunks loaded all the time and mass a shit load of entities there
eternal night
no
grim ice
unique id
eternal night
lol
hexed hatch
no
grim ice
wha
hexed hatch
that's not how it works
grim ice
dosnt it work like armorstands
eternal night
no
grim ice
fuck
mighty pier
is there an easy way to store data on 1.8?
eternal night
armorstand don't work that way either
grim ice
then i have to keep a chunk loaded what the fuc
viral crag
perhaps they should just get to the point of either teleporting or cloning an entity first .
grim ice
wont that suck for performance
eternal night
yes
hexed hatch
Probably at some point
eternal night
the solution just doesn't scale with larger player basis
hexed hatch
even if not performance, framerate of those who enter the region with a clusterfuck of mobs under the world
eternal night
I guess you could randomly selected a chunk and store the chunk coords on the item
and then load the chunk if needed
hexed hatch
I have another out-there potential solution for you
hexed hatch
There is a structure api in spigot
eternal night
LOL
hexed hatch
and structures can save entities
grim ice
wat
eternal night
omg HAHAHA
yes
actually genius
you create new structures for every single entity
hexed hatch
you could save the 2 blocks in which an entity inhabits
or whatever it's bounds are I have no idea how structures work with entities
all I know is that it can in fact save entities
and then just generate the structure at the location with the integrity field as 0 so no blocks are generated
it's absolutely disgusting but I'm like pretty sure that will work out
grim ice
will it lag
eternal night
not too bad I guess
hexed hatch
less than putting them under the world I'd say
chrome beacon
That's how villagers are spawned in villages :) they are a structure piece
hexed hatch
This will be the path of least resistance, I can assure you of that lol
grim ice
better than learning nms
hexed hatch
I'm actually a genius
eternal night
it isn't too bad tho you will be spamming the shit out of your server with files
with a structure per entity
viral crag
if its really the way you want to do it, you could just do it in another dimension rather than the overworld
grim ice
s e r i a l i z e it uwu /j
eternal night
So make sure to ehhh somehow delete them
grim ice
So make sure to ehhh somehow delete them
cant i
make it into a hashmap
but
to save the hashmap
hexed hatch
with a structure per entity
with some smart tomfuckery you could probably group multiple entities in one structure and yank out the one you need
eternal night
Yea probably
no but they are just namespaced keys
you can tell the server to save them to disk
and load them later using their namespaced key
grim ice
uh
ok i can just
can i just make some sort of pool
make some amount specified in config
of structures
then
get the first empty one when u need it
but i cant park structures
so uhh
i mean theyre just files and small ones
hexed hatch
no but you can register and unregister them as needed I believe
grim ice
so it wont be that much of a pain for the server
and i can make a library out of this
woo
im gonna credit u if i ever make this :O
hexed hatch
JavaPlugin#structureManager should open your eyes a bit to what's possible
I see methods for deleting structures
if I were you, when the entity is spawned, I'd just delete the structure
grim ice
i would save it for deletion, not delete it
hexed hatch
im gonna credit u if i ever make this :O
as disgusting as this idea is I'm not entirely sure I want that lol
grim ice
i would put it in arraylist, if no one needs it anymore in the server
when server disables
ill delete it
if no one needed it again
that would be better than making then deleting
every time someone spawns / despawns
cuz they can spam it
although there will be a cooldown
any guides on structures?
hexed hatch
when I was trying to learn it, I found almost nothing on it
But I got it figured out by just reading the docs
grim ice
can u give some basic info if u want? if ur tired or lazy its fine
hexed hatch
I am tired, lazy, and preoccupied with a mountain of school work

when were structers added giz
olive lance
@waxen plinth Where can I refer people to you for custom plugins
grim ice
i cant find it in 1.16.5
waxen plinth
<@!186632661622718473> Where can I refer people to you for custom plugins
what do you mean
hexed hatch
might've been 1.17
eternal night
afaik 1.18
waxen plinth
Sure
hexed hatch
I wrote my structure plugin in 1.17
olive lance
ok
eternal night
are you sure ?
grim ice
Bro
I should just use nms then if its 2 versions
oueuhfuewbfuewufhewfhabF;OJHU
fine
not 1.17 @hexed hatch
1.17.1
aa
hexed hatch
ah
viral crag
thinks you should start at latest and put down some code
hexed hatch
why are you clinging to 1.16.5 specifically?
eternal night
oh yea, one of the last 1.17 additions
worldly ingot
hey, I currently have
```java
public static String toPercentage(Double n){
...
This method works fine for me?
Though if you want, you can use NumberFormat.getPercentInstance() instead
next stratus
Yes, but it only goes up to 1.0% for me not 100%
I'm using a Map of Materials and Doubles if that helps
grim ice
can i implement structure btw @hexed hatch
next stratus
the block percentages within the mine
worldly ingot
Relative to what? Do you have a % in there for stone? Ideally your number is going to add up to 100%, no?
hexed hatch
can i implement structure btw <@!265975334212599808>
what?
worldly ingot
I think your calculation is flawed in this instance
grim ice
so i can set the size
worldly ingot
because your value is either a percentage or a weight
viral crag
Yes, but it only goes up to 1.0% for me not 100%
that is what you have your precision set too ...
hexed hatch
I don't get what you're asking
if you're asking if you can create structures with the structure api, I believe the answer is yes
next stratus
I mean Double goes up to 1 yes?
grim ice
how do i set a struct size tho
hexed hatch
I believe you define two corners
worldly ingot
If the value you want is a weight, the percentage is going to be weight/totalWeight. If the value you want is a percentage, the percentage is itself
So if you have your value mapped to 1, but nothing else is in the map, 1/1 is 100%
If you have two values, both mapped to 1, 1/2 = 50%
grim ice
how tho
worldly ingot
But if you are using those as percentages, then the percentage is going to be what you have mapped
Scaling matters here too
next stratus
but there's no way to make the 1 become 100% instead of 1
worldly ingot
You can multiply it by 100 😛
Which you're doing in that method
Which does work, as I've shown above
hexed hatch
void
fill(Location corner1, Location corner2, boolean includeEntities)
Fills the structure from an area in a world.```filling?
i dont want it to have anything
plus there is no set location, arent structures virtual
hexed hatch
it's weirdly named, almost certain that just gets the shit from the world and puts it in the structure object
worldly ingot
You can fill the structure with information from the world, and you can place a structure into the world
hexed hatch
actually I am not almost certain
worldly ingot
#fill(), #place(), respectively

grim ice
alr
worldly ingot
It uses the same functionality that structure blocks use
If you're doing any of the IO operations from StructureManager, however, do those async
young knoll
But it isn’t limited toy 48x48x48
worldly ingot
I can't verify that
young knoll
I wonder if worldedit has an option to save as an NBT structure yet
hexed hatch
But it isn’t limited toy 48x48x48
iirc, that's only with structure blocks
using the api avoids the limit I believe
worldly ingot
Yeah, I can't find any restrictions in CraftBukkit so unless they're restricted in the NMS that CB refers to, there is no limit
I think Senmori implemented the structure stuff ages ago and he's not around to answer that question ;p
Oh it wasn't Senmori
Sander Knauff. No clue who that is
tardy delta
lmao all these things
young knoll
Isn’t the structure stuff new
hexed hatch
1.17.1
hexed hatch
no clue
young knoll
Yes
hexed hatch
might not even need two though
young knoll
I assume it’s inclusive
hexed hatch
one block might be enough to save the entity
young knoll
Probably

How can I change it to detect if its a pig who is involved in the event?

grim ice
nah ill make a config
young knoll
Or compare getEntityType
fossil lily
oh!

This should work right?
young knoll
Yes

I would use == tho
eternal night
one less method to call

or entity instanceof Pig?
viral crag
hmm... java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.nio.file.Path.toString()" because "PathTest" is null thats interesting

Well: [18:59:45 INFO]: [CAdmin] What is Path3: sun.nio.fs.UnixFileSystem$1@476c9ad2 is almost useful

hi, im trying to rotate nms stand im doing it right but i think the packet is wrong, which packet should i send on 1.18
stand.setYBodyRot(entity.getLocation().getYaw());
stand.setYHeadRot(entity.getLocation().getYaw());
stand.setXRot(entity.getLocation().getPitch());
stand.getBukkitEntity().setRotation(entity.getLocation().getYaw(), entity.getLocation().getPitch());
for(Player p : showed){
JeffLib.getNMSHandler().sendPacket(p, new ClientboundSetEntityDataPacket(stand.getId(), stand.getEntityData(), true));
}```if that is the case you have 50/50 to sort it - remove a test
thats not too bad, i have filesystem security issues atm
the code i am working with , and I suspect it is host related rather than spigot specifically. So i need to ask in a different way
is there or do you have a flag for that?
ancient jackal
Not sure if this would work but you could test if the offlineplayer of that person has changed and if not, compare their names
Why not? It’s not bad
String beforeName = ((OfflinePlayer) event.getPlayer()).getName();```It's not
no it's getting the OfflinePlayer of the joining Player
and gets the name the server has stored
but like I said idk if it's going to be updated already so you should test it first
permissions aren't bad either
somber sequoia
Whats the best way to check if a player changed chunks? Currently I was trying to compare x and z variables from both e.getFrom().getChunk() and e.getPlayer().getLocation().getChunk() in the PlayerMoveEvent but it doesn't always trigger it
ancient jackal
no, getDisplayName is nicknames
that's a ton of blocks being checked everytime a chunk is loaded
somber sequoia
how in the heck are you getting the player from the chunkloadevent
bro idk what black magic is that but my intellij doesnt like that
ancient jackal
because you can't cast the event to a player
you should show the code
because the chunkloadevent doesn't even keep track of the player loading chunks
eternal night
what ?
eternal night
ChunkLoadEvent should definitely be triggered for chunks loaded by players
ohh
I guess what "player" triggered the chunk load
ancient jackal
it doesn't keep track of the player
it does it when the player loads the chunk but doesn't know which player
somber sequoia
yeah no just built it and i cannot cast the event to a player object
somber sequoia
aint working for that one
wary harness
Hello there
I got problem player skull not loading
I got gui
which loads 10 players heads
which player before on server
I am getting skins on Heads by player head method
viral crag
oof i broke intellij
wary harness
because it is cracked
server
it is strange case it happen on one of
servers in bungee
so what would be a reason
why they don't want to load
how would I do that
ancient jackal
set the ownerprofile of the skull meta
viral crag
or try the sleezy plugin
ask it
simplest is to set a flag in it and poll that flag on login, or you can parse file modification
wary harness
all those 10 account has skins
and proper name
because they are loaded on server 1.16
at the same machine
how to event get them then
so I can store them
how would I do that if my current
code is not working
viral crag
your offline stuff probably already tells you what you need to use for player skin support
ancient jackal
how to event get them then
get the player profile of the person and use that to set the head
my test server is offline and it still gets heads after a second

unkempt peak
playerdatacontainer
Are you talking about PersistentDataContainer?
ancient jackal
yes my bad
tender shard
can i use one namespacedkey for many persistent data containers
ofc you can
a namespacedkey is "basically" just a string in the format "namespace:key"
minecraft:diamond_pickaxe
angelchest:protected_chest
plugin:somestring
ancient jackal
1 key can unlock many doors
tender shard
structure name?
grim ice
1.17.1 structures
eternal night
your namespaced key can have whatever string matches the constraints as key
tender shard
yeah basically [a-z0-9-] IIRC
grim ice
can a namespacedkey
have a
uuid toString()'d
it prob cant
ok it cant cuz uppercase letters
tender shard
Namespaces may only contain lowercase alphanumeric characters, periods, underscores, and hyphens.
Keys may only contain lowercase alphanumeric characters, periods, underscores, hyphens, and forward slashes.
tender shard
ok it cant cuz uppercase letters
uuids are always lowercase letters
grim ice
o
btw
give me ideas
rn
im storing a struct
in a item pdc
how do i do that
do i make a custom type
or is there a simpler way
eternal night
you wouldn't store the structure
you just store the namespaced key to the structure
eternal night
Eh I mean, make a type if you want to
eternal night
but like, it is just a string in the end
grim ice
what im struggling with
what do i register
the structure as
like the namespacedkey
what do i name it
it needs to be different for each itemstack
do i just make a number
that increases each time the method is called
and is saved to config on disable
quaint mantle
2hex what are you trying to do
grim ice
storing a struct in an itemstack essentially
grim ice
the entity uuid ?
oh ok
eternal night
struct -> namespace of a structure
tender shard
ah ok
grim ice
if i use
getManager().registerStructure(new NamespacedKey(getInstance(),
entity.getUniqueId().toString()), struct);
then later
getManager().loadStructure(new NamespacedKey(/* the stuff */))
is it valid
I didnt use a namespacedkey in months
grim ice
should i run saveStructure
async
(on another thread, since async has another meaning)
quaint mantle
is rhis from spigor?
grim ice
yea
eternal night
Well the method isn't actively declared safe for off-thread, but eehh might work ?
grim ice
Well the method isn't actively declared safe for off-thread, but eehh might work...
it uses java io
quaint mantle
Ahh makes sense
eternal night
Yea I don't think it touches any internal state
grim ice
btw
if i store an entity in a
structure
can i kill the entity
and it will be saved in the structure
eternal night
no, the structure takes a snapshot
which means you'd have to "refill" the structur
eternal night
Well it saves it when you call the saveStructure method
grim ice
i do
so if i save structure
then kill
the entity
will it respawn if i load it
and place
eternal night
yes

Hello,
How I can have the Block of the bucket when it is empty ?
I use the PlayerBucketEmptyEvent and it is to creat the plugin of practice.
Excuse me of my english I from French
Please ping me
Thanks you
viral crag
yes so what is palette
Palette Represent a variation of a structure.
grim ice
there is only one i think
viral crag
specifically: The positions of the returned block states are offsets relative to the structure's position that is provided once the structure is placed into the world.
so when you move a structure or when you port it to another world - would be a basic application of the palette
young knoll
You shouldn’t have to worry about the pallet
midnight shore
How can I have an offset between two blocks?
For example
I have a block named center
viral crag
pick it up and move it right 1 space = 1 block offset
midnight shore
And I have an offset of 1 block
How can I get the block in that offset?
And would that count rotation or weird stuff?
midnight shore
pick it up and move it right 1 space = 1 block offset
Thank you but that’s not what I want and also I’m not that dumb
Would that work using locations and subtracting
?
viral crag
everything contained is the same as the blockState as it says
midnight shore
Yeah but that’s not my question
If I have a block ad 0,0,0
And an offset of 1
I should have a block at 1,0,0

How can I stop that, and why?
young knoll
Because you can click with both hands?

event.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.HAND
fossil lily
i guess
grim ice
will only run for main hand
young knoll
event.getHand() == EquipmentSlot.HAND
^ just use this

- By checking which hand the event fired for
- The client sends 1 use packet for each hand

add OFF_ before HAND so its only for off hand

using the imports or by using the fully qualified class name

set up excludes filters on your dependencies

hm they talked about intellij so I guess both are shaded and they want to differentiate it inside the code, not by excluding from one being shaded

unit tests are not about "i am too lazy to read a stacktrace"
it's most of the time to check if the results are what you expect
not to check if you get errors
wet breach
is that your project?
vocal cloud
It helps prevent errors before deploying to the server
tender shard
e.g. imagine you have "complicatedCalculation(int)" and "reverseComplicatedCalculation(int)"
now you can unit test if "reverseComplicatedCalculation(complicatedCalculation(7)) == 7"
it might also return something different without throwing errors
you won't have any stacktrace
unit tests are basically done to check if the methods do what they are supposed to do, not to check whether exceptions etc are thrown (at least not ONLY for that)
waxen plinth
unit tests are not about "i am too lazy to read a stacktrace"
Unit tests are fucking great honestly

Sometimes I am rewriting some complicated internal piece of code and I have no idea what it's gonna break

And if I didn't have unit tests I would have to go back and test every single possible functionality to make sure it all works

But with unit tests I just hit a button and it's like "yep good to go"

Popular in the industry
waxen plinth
You just make an interface for it that lays out how the abstraction should be interacted with without any actual implementation yet
Then you write tests for that functionality
tender shard
the person who wrote a method should never be the person who also writes the test for that method
waxen plinth
And then you can very easily test everything as you're writing it
It's obviously not really the way you would go about it as an individual developer
But for teams it can often make sense
And it makes it easier to know exactly how far along you are, how close you are to a solution
Which companies obviously care about
tender shard
if you write the test first, some people might think "I am done" when all tests succeed lol
wet breach
doesn't really make sense to write tests for everything
waxen plinth
Again, depends on the context
If you're an individual developer or small organization with a reasonably-sized codebase then no
But if you're an absolutely massive company you need every piece of code to work 100% of the time because any failure by any part of the code could mean millions of users are affected
