DRC-API

This API add some usefull methods to avoid to write a ton of code over and over again.

 

MainHelper.reformateText("&cSome text");

This will give back the colored text. You can use '&' and '§'.

 

MainHelper.hasPermission(player, permission);

Will check if the given Player has op, * or the given permission

MainHelper.isPluginThere(mainPlugin, "Litebans");

Will check if the given pluginname is in the Pluginsfolder.

 

MainHelper.addLore(lore, itemstack);

Will add the given lore to the itemstack

 

MainHelper.getRenamedItemstack(customname, itemstack);

Will rename the given itemstack with the given name. (The name can be colored)

 

- Adds an UpdateChecker function

 

private void checkUpdate() {
    UpdateChecker updater = new UpdateChecker(this, 52712, false);
 
    UpdateChecker.UpdateResult result = updater.getResult();
 
    switch (result) {
        case NO_UPDATE: {
            getLogger().info(perfix + MainHelper.reformateText("&6There is no update available! Everything is up to date!"));
            break;
        }
        case UPDATE_AVAILABLE: {
            // TODO: 4/12/2017 Fix link
            getLogger().info(perfix + MainHelper.reformateText("&aThere is an update available! You can download it at https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/anti-combat-log.52712/"));
            break;
        }
 
        case FAIL_SPIGOT: {
            getLogger().info(perfix + MainHelper.reformateText("&cThere is a problem with Spigot. sorry for the inconvenience"));
            break;
        }
        case BAD_RESOURCEID: {
            getLogger().info(perfix + MainHelper.reformateText("&cStupid me. I placed the wrong ResourceID. Contact him on Spigot!"));
            break;
        }
    }
}

If you insert and call this in your main plugin class it will check if the given resourceID has an update. (Change "52712" to your plugin id and ofcourse the link)

 

- A ConfigHandler which makes it super easy to have more than 1 config file. Just make a class for each configfile and extends ConfigHandler. Implement the constructor.

Once you've done that, go to where you want to init your configs and use the following syntax:

For example:

Config config = new Config(plugin, "config.yml");

After you made the config.yml file inside the src folder, add static methods for each value you want to have access to. Add a load methode and add getters and you can access them from everywhere in your project. 

Here is an example Configfile from AntiCombatLog.

#Enables if you want to auto check for updates
updatechecker: true
#These commands will be disabled when being in combat.
command-blacklist:
- /spawn
- /ci
 
#When this is allowed, players can be punished for combat logging
allow-punishments: true

public class Config extends ConfigHandler {
private static boolean updateChecker;
private static boolean punishmentsAllowed;
private static List<String> blacklistedCommands;
 
public Config(JavaPlugin plugin, String filename) {
     super(plugin, filename);
     loadConfig();
}
 
private void loadConfig() {
     updateChecker = getConfig().getBoolean("updatechecker");
 
     punishmentsAllowed = getConfig().getBoolean("allow-punishments");
 
     blacklistedCommands= getConfig().getStringList("command-blacklist");
}
 
public static List<String> getBlacklistedCommands() {
        return blacklistedCommands;
}
 
public static boolean isUpdateChecker() {
        return updateChecker;
}
 
public static boolean ispunishmentsAllowed () {
        return punishmentsAllowed ;
}
 
}

Now wherever you need it, you can call

Config.ispunishmentsAllowed();

 

Feel free to add this plugin to your libraries. No maven support yet.
