[CODING NOOB NEEDS HELP] sender.(event) target.(event) :How to make those?

Hey, I am coding a plugin, and i would like to know how to make something (IDK what you call it XD) instead of typing player.(event) only, i would like somthing to happen to the target to so i can make some event happen to the target when i type in my code target.(EVENT) Help please

 

Can you be a little more specific?

 

@Agentleader1 You know there is: target.(EVENT) to do an event to a target. There is also sender.(EVENT) in plugins people can code. How to I add those?

 

@samyounes03 What are you talking about?.. do you want to call an event?

 

@Hawktasard @samyounes03 I think he means something like sender.sendMessage();
Sender is default in the onCommand boolean if you set it up correctly. A target is usually the same thing as a player.
Example:

Code:

public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args){
if(label.equalsIgnoreCase("heal")){
Player p = (Player) sender;
if(args[1] != null){
Player target = Bukkit.getPlayer(args[1]);
target.setHealth(20);
}
}
return true;
}

 

If I understand you right, those things are called methods! https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/methods.html
Writing Bukkit plugins requires at least a basic understanding of Java.

 

Thank you @ZackBlazes

Ok @teej107 Thx

 

I see 4-5 errors instantly...
1. Use cmd.getName() instead of the alias (label)
2. Don't blindly cast the sender to a Player
3. Don't use args[1] != null, use args.length == x
3.1 args[1] is the second word in the command (/command firstWord secondWord)
4. The target player can be null or not online.
5. .setHealth requires a double, not an int

 

@FisheyLP I know. I didn't type that to be correct or to be used anywhere. I just showed a quick example.

 

That's when you should use pseudo code.

 

Ok let me correct it then.

Code:

public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {
if(cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("heal")){
if (sender instanceof Player){
Player player = (Player) sender;
if(args.length > 0){
Player target = Bukkit.getPlayer(args[0]);
if(target.isOnline()){
target.setHealth(target.getMaxHealth())
}
}
}
}
return true;
}

 

That is not pseudo code and that still hasn't fixed many of the problems in the first "example"

 

@ZackBlazes first check then cast,
Args > 0 ? U mean args >= 0
Target player will turn to null if it not online

Also i think the op means he wants to add methods in player interface (and further more implementstions) to call them like player.amethod() but in bukkit that is not possible without editingservers code, editing servers code is not suported here.

 

Pseudo Code: a notation resembling a simplified programming language, used in program design.
Basically all Pseudo code is, is writing code into an example which isn't actually code, e.g.
Check if Player equals null.
Set integer x to 0

 

@_Cookie_ I didn't mean that I was changing it to pseudo code.
