IChatBaseComponent

I am working with IChatBaseComponent (sucks because json is hard to read) anyway I have this:

Code:java

IChatBaseComponent comp = ChatSerializer.a("{\"text\":\"" + "\",\"extra\":[{\"text\":\"" + "§9/cg globalmute §8- §5Globally Mutes Chat"
                            + "\",\"clickEvent\": {\"action\":\"run_command\",\"value\":\"" + "/cg globalmute"
                            +  "\",\"hoverEvent\": {\"action\":\"show_text\",\"value\":\"" + "§7Click to Globally Mute Chat!"
                            + "\"}}}]}"); 
                        PacketPlayOutChat packet = new PacketPlayOutChat(comp, true);
                        ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(packet);

Everything works excluding the hoverEvent, any idea what's wrong?

 

Have you taken a look at Fanciful? It makes dealing with the JSON much easier.

 

Kilovice After nicely formatting your actual JSON

Code:

{
    "text": "",
    "extra":
    [
        {
            "text": "§9/cg globalmute §8- §5Globally Mutes Chat",
            "clickEvent": 
            {
                "action": "run_command",
                "value": "/cg globalmute",
                "hoverEvent":
                {
                    "action": "show_text",
                    "value": "§7Click to Globally Mute Chat!"
                }
            }
        }
    ]
}

It is pretty obvious what's wrong :3

Sorry, don't like using Libraries unless absolutely necessary

I'm quite a bit of a noob when it comes to json xD

Suit yourself, but it's a lot nicer than trying to write raw JSON into your IDE. I think this thread already shows why that's not the best idea.

 

Kilovice Why bother dealing with raw JSON when there's such an easy alternative instead? If you're not willing to use the resources you have, you're going to be reinventing the wheel many times.

The only time I ever use external libraries is if its that much of a pain in the ass or absolutely necessary, with this, I'm having one problem and I can't seem to find it

I fixed the json message using a json parser, but how do I then convert it to IChatBaseComponent

Just look how Fanciful created a message.

 

It was pretty obvious assuming you know how to create the chat messages in the first place.

https://github.com/Bukkit/mc-dev/blob/master/net/minecraft/server/ChatSerializer.java#L175

 

if you want to keep it easy you can use this:
CLib.java

Code:

    public static void sendMagicMessage(Player player, EnchantedMessage[] msg) {
        IChatBaseComponent comp = null;
        for(EnchantedMessage Message : msg){
        String FirstMessage = setColor(Message.text());
        String SpecialText = setColor(Message.specialText());
        String Hover = setColor(Message.onHover());
        FirstMessage = "\"" + FirstMessage + "\"";
        SpecialText = "\"" + SpecialText + "\"";
        Hover = "\"" + Hover + "\"";
        String finalS = "";
        if(Message.command().equals("false")){
            finalS = "{\"text\":" + FirstMessage +",\"extra\":[{\"text\":" + SpecialText + ",\"hoverEvent\":{\"action\":\"show_text\",\"value\":" + Hover +"}}]}";
        }
        else
        {
            finalS = "{\"text\":" + FirstMessage +",\"extra\":[{\"text\":" + SpecialText + ",\"hoverEvent\":{\"action\":\"show_text\",\"value\":" + Hover +"},\"clickEvent\":{\"action\":\"run_command\",\"value\":\"/" + Message.command() + "\"}}]}";
        }
        if(comp==null){
            comp = ChatSerializer.a(finalS);
        }
        else
        {
            IChatBaseComponent comp2 = ChatSerializer.a(finalS);
            comp.addSibling(comp2);
        }
        }
        PacketPlayOutChat packet = new PacketPlayOutChat(comp, true);
        ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(packet);
    }
  private static String setColor(String string){
     string = string.replace("#BOLD", ChatColor.BOLD.toString());
     string = string.replace("#DRED", ChatColor.DARK_RED.toString());
     string = string.replace("#RED", ChatColor.RED.toString());
     string = string.replace("#DBLUE", ChatColor.DARK_BLUE.toString());
     string = string.replace("#BLUE", ChatColor.BLUE.toString());
     string = string.replace("#AQUA", ChatColor.AQUA.toString());
     string = string.replace("#BLACK", ChatColor.BLACK.toString());
     string = string.replace("#ITALIC", ChatColor.ITALIC.toString());
     string = string.replace("#RESET", ChatColor.RESET.toString());
     string = string.replace("#DAQUA", ChatColor.DARK_AQUA.toString());
     string = string.replace("#DGRAY", ChatColor.DARK_GRAY.toString());
     string = string.replace("#DGREEN", ChatColor.DARK_GREEN.toString());
     string = string.replace("#DPURPLE", ChatColor.DARK_PURPLE.toString());
     string = string.replace("#MAGIC", ChatColor.MAGIC.toString());
     string = string.replace("#GOLD", ChatColor.GOLD.toString());
     string = string.replace("#GRAY", ChatColor.GRAY.toString());
     string = string.replace("#GREEN", ChatColor.GREEN.toString());
     string = string.replace("#LPURPLE", ChatColor.LIGHT_PURPLE.toString());
     string = string.replace("#ST", ChatColor.STRIKETHROUGH.toString());
     string = string.replace("#WHITE", ChatColor.WHITE.toString());
     string = string.replace("#YELLOW", ChatColor.YELLOW.toString());
     return string;
   }

EnchantedMessage.java

Code:

public class EnchantedMessage {
    private String text;
    private String specialtext;
    private String onhover;
    private String command;
    public EnchantedMessage(String Text, String SpecialText, String OnHover, String OnClick){
        this.text = Text;
        this.specialtext = SpecialText;
        this.onhover = OnHover;
        if(OnClick.equals("")){
            this.command = "false";
        }
        else
        {
            this.command = OnClick;
        }
    }
    public String onHover(){
        return this.onhover;
    }
    public String text(){
        return this.text;
    }
    public String specialText(){
        return this.specialtext;
    }
    public String command(){
        return this.command;
    }
}

Usage:

Code:

EnchantedMessage em1 = new EnchantedMessage("TextHere","SpecialTextWithAction","ActionOnHoveringOnSpecialText","CommandOnClickSpecialText");
CLib.sendMagicMessage(player, new EnchantedMessage[]{em1});

Hope it helped you out
if you leave CommandOnClickSpecialText empty the message wont run a command on click.
and dont forget to put a space in front of your second and third and....... usage of TextHere
Because it will be all written to one line
