  1. Hello how do I make it so in the config you can do colours? Say the message is the default as I put.. And I want them to use colours. So they can customize it.

    code:

    Code:java
    1. package me.Sean0402.HidePlugin;
    2.  
    3. import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
    4. import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
    5. import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
    6. import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
    7. import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
    8. import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent;
    9. import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
    10.  
    11. public class HidePlugin extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
    12.  
    13. private boolean Message = this.getConfig().getBoolean("Message");
    14.  
    15. public void onEnable(){
    16. Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    17. getServer().getLogger().info("HidePlugin Now Enabled! Created By Sean0402");
    18. getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
    19. saveConfig();
    20. }
    21.  
    22. public void onDisable(){
    23. getServer().getLogger().info("HidePlugin Now Enabled! Created By Sean0402");
    24. }
    25.  
    26. @EventHandler
    27. public void onPlayerCommandPreprocess(PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent event)
    28. {
    29. Player p = event.getPlayer();
    30. if ((event.getMessage().startsWith("/?")) && (!event.getPlayer().isOp()))
    31. {
    32. p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("Message"));
    33. event.setCancelled(true);
    34. }
    35. else if ((event.getMessage().startsWith("/bukkit")) && (event.getPlayer().isOp()))
    36. {
    37. event.setCancelled(true);
    38. p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("Message"));
    39. }
    40. else if ((event.getMessage().startsWith("/pl")) && (event.getPlayer().isOp()))
    41. {
    42. event.setCancelled(true);
    43. p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("Message"));
    44. }
    45. }
    46. }

    After you use .getString("Your.Awesome.Config.File").replaceAll("&1", ChatColor.DARK_BLUE + "");
     
  4. _Cookie_ How would I do it for more than 1? And the .replaceAll keeps saying to rename is to replace or replaceFirst then if I do them it says rename it to the old one..

    Just as an example of usage. Say you have a config file.

    Code:
    some:
        text: '&7Hello! My name is &2FerusGrim!'
    You could then translate those symbols:
    Code:java
    1. public void someMethod() {
    2. getLogger().info(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', getConfig().getString("some.text")));
    3. }

    Wat even?
    *cough* there is a method as FerusGrim explained, why would you do that?
    This is the second time I've said this to you but go think about what you have just posted ;3

    LordVakar That is how I do it, I wasn't aware of that method, so there is no need to be a dick about it.

    You should really have a read through the API docs, then. Familiarize yourself with it, and you can do anything. ;)
     
  9. I'm having problems with it still.. Giving me errors when I change the code and put's it back to it's original code.

    Code:java
    1. package me.Sean0402.HidePlugin;
    2.  
    3. import org.bukkit.Bukkit;
    4. import org.bukkit.ChatColor;
    5. import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
    6. import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
    7. import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
    8. import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent;
    9. import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
    10.  
    11. public class HidePlugin extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
    12.  
    13. private boolean Message = this.getConfig().getBoolean("Message");
    14.  
    15. public void onEnable(){
    16. Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    17. getServer().getLogger().info("HidePlugin Now Enabled! Created By Sean0402");
    18. getConfig().options().copyDefaults();
    19. saveConfig();
    20. }
    21.  
    22. public void onDisable(){
    23. getServer().getLogger().info("HidePlugin Now Enabled! Created By Sean0402");
    24. }
    25.  
    26. @EventHandler
    27. public void onPlayerCommandPreprocess(PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent event)
    28. {
    29. Player p = event.getPlayer();
    30. if ((event.getMessage().startsWith("/?")) && (!event.getPlayer().isOp()))
    31. {
    32. getLogger().info(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', getConfig().getString("Message")));
    33. p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("Message"));
    34. event.setCancelled(true);
    35. }
    36. else if ((event.getMessage().startsWith("/bukkit")) && (event.getPlayer().isOp()))
    37. {
    38. getLogger().info(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', getConfig().getString("Message")));
    39. p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("Message"));
    40. event.setCancelled(true);
    41. }
    42. else if ((event.getMessage().startsWith("/pl")) && (event.getPlayer().isOp()))
    43. {
    44. getLogger().info(ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', getConfig().getString("Message")));
    45. p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("Message"));
    46. event.setCancelled(true);
    47. }
    48. }
    49. }

    Well now you know, before giving people bad information and bad java coding conventions (in another thread), you should learn it yourself.
    Also, @OP, you're getting a string message that probably doesn't exist in the config everytime.

    Could you explain what this error is?
     
  12. FerusGrim when I try to edit the config it goes back to what I had it before I edited it?

    Really, he's just trying to help. :)
    Let us not discourage people who enjoy helping others, because of a mistake.

    The JavaDocs can be quite fun to explore. I sometimes look at the methods inside of it just to give me ideas of things to make! Why don't you browse through it? You may have some fun, and learn a thing or two at the same time.

    Error is probably getString("Message") doesn't exist and he does it everytime.

    EDIT:
    FerusGrim
    I realize he's trying to help, but giving away bad information every time is terrible, it makes other people learn java incorrectly.

    By the way... The way you used for "StartsWith" could mean someone could type "/plugz"

    I really couldn't tell you off-hand what the issue is, without looking a bit more. But, for now, try replacing:
    Code:java
    1. getConfig().options().copyDefaults();

    with:
    Code:java
    1. saveDefaultConfig();

    I don't really disagree. But someone is more likely to take your advice if you give it to them in a way where you don't come off as a jerk. :p
     
  18. FerusGrim It's not copying my default config. so the "Message" string won't be there?
