Solved getCommand().setExecutor() causing nullpointerexception

Hello,

I'm trying to add a command to my plugin but for some reason the command isn't getting detected in the plugin.yml file, I checked it with yamllint.com and it passes so I don't think its incorrectly formatted.

I've even tried changing commands that worked before into the new command and it doesn't seem to help.

my plugin.yml:

Code:

name: Warbuild
author: xorinzor
version: 1.0
main: com.jorinvermeulen.warbuild.Warbuild
depend: [BarAPI,TabAPI,WorldEdit,PlayEffect]
commands:
  warbuild:
    aliases: wb
    description: This is a demo command
    usage: /warbuild
    permission: warbuild.terminal
    permission-message: You don't have the required permissions to access this command
  structure:
    description: Define a new structure on the map
    usage: /structure
    permission: warbuild.terminalcommand
    permission-message: You don't have the required permissions to access this command
permissions:
  warbuild.*:
    description: Gives access to all warbuild commands
    children:
      warbuild.terminalcommand: true
      warbuild.mapbbuild: true
  warbuild.terminalcommand:
      description: Allows you to interact with the Warbuild server plugin
      default: op

My main class:

Code:java

public class Warbuild extends JavaPlugin {
    /**
    * eventhandler for the enabling of the plugin
    */
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        instance = this;
 
        //Command listeners
        getCommand("warbuild").setExecutor(new WBCommandTest());
        getCommand("structure").setExecutor(new CreateStructure());
    }
 
    /**
    * eventhandler for the disabling of the plugin
    */
    @Override
    public void onDisable() {
        super.onDisable();
 
        Logger.LogInfo("Warbuild server has been shutdown");
    }
}

getCommand("structure") in this case is null (and thus causing the nullpointerexception) but I have no idea why.

Any ideas?

Nevermind, it seems even though yamllint reported no errors it was the ' in permission-message that was messing things up.

Removing the ' solved it

xorinzor stacktrace?
It seems you already solved it.

 

the stacktrace was just pointing to getCommand("structure").setExecutor(new CreateStructure()); because getCommand("structure") was null, didn't contain any other useful information.

It seems the plugin.yml just wasn't completely parsed (despite Bukkit not giving any error and just seemingly accepting the entire plugin.yml file, which I find a bit odd)
