How to see if player death is caused by entity?

So, I'm having a problem. How can I see, using onPlayerDeath btw, if an entity killed the player? And not for example by falling to death?

try:

Code:

public void onPlayerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent event)
    {
        //A player died
        Player player = event.getEntity();
        if(player.getKiller() instanceof LivingEntity)
        {
               //Do stuff here
        }
}

I saw that, however, getKiller() returns a Player. What if it's a skeleton?

 

In that case you could use the getLastDamageCause() =)

 

Actually, I found this working:

Code:

@EventHandler(priority = EventPriority.MONITOR)
    public void onPlayerDeath(PlayerDeathEvent event){
        EntityDamageEvent e = event.getEntity().getLastDamageCause();
        if(e instanceof EntityDamageByEntityEvent){
            this.plugin.debug("Yep!");
        }
    }
