Get online player inventory on Website

How to get player's inventory and show it on my Website? Any examples?

 

Can i use JSONAPI to do this?

 

Also i want to get only online players inventory.. I think MySQL is not good idea

 

So what i want to do? Any documentations..?

 

@Rilekt @timtower I feel that this would require using sockets. I've never actually used sockets, because I can't open up more ports to test.
I would have a plugin on the server and a php file on the site, and when someone logs into the website, the php file connects to the server, and the plugin gives it all the info it needs.

 

@timtower That's true, but then you would either have to make it so that your website redirects to the server, or make a php file that loads the content of the server-generated page.

EDIT: Actually the php part would be the easiest:

PHP:

<?php
include 'server.ip.here';

 

@timtower Both of our methods work. I think I might actually try that sometime just to see if I can get it to work.

 

Soo... How to get this inventory using JSONAPI?

 

@timtower I want to say that I did get it to work. I made a socket on the plugin and when connecting to the socket from the URL it showed me the number of players online.

The only thing I couldn't figure out was how to connect and show the page with php; The methods we mentioned didn't work when trying to load the contents that the socket returned. I tried doing socket stuff on php but I couldn't figure that out.

 

@Rilekt Configure JSONAPI on your server, and then add a invsee.json file in the methods folder :

Code:

{
    "name" : "Inventory View",
    "namespace" : "invsee",
    "depends" : [
        "JSONAPI"
    ],
    "methods" : [
        {
            "name": "getInventorySlot",
            "desc": "Gets the item type the player has the slot specified.",
            "returns": ["String", "Type of the item in the specified slot"],
            "call": "this.getPlayerExact(0).getInventory().getItem(1).getType().getName()",
            "methods": [
                ["String", "The name of the player"],
                ["int", "The slot id, starting from 0"]
            ]
        },
        {
            "name": "getInventoryContents",
            "desc": "Gets each itemstack in the specified player's inventory.",
            "returns": ["ItemStack[]", "Types of the items in the player's inventory"],
            "call": "this.getPlayerExact(0).getInventory().getContents()",
            "methods": [
                ["String", "The name of the player"]
            ]
        },
        {
            "name": "getArmorContents",
            "desc": "Gets each itemtack in the specified player's armor.",
            "returns": ["ItemStack[]", "The itemstacks in the player's armor"],
            "call": "this.getPlayerExact(0).getInventory().getArmorContents()",
            "methods": [
                ["String", "The name of the player"]
            ]
        }
    ]
}

This will allow you to retrieve the contents of a player's inventory, remotely through JSONAPI.
If you want to change his inventory, there are default commands in the methods.json file.
And if you want to get the durability of an item, create another method to do that.
I think there's also a default method to get the item's enchantments, not sure though.

Now you will have to download JSONAPI's PHP SDK, which you can get on github here :
https://github.com/alecgorge/jsonapi/blob/master/sdk/php/JSONAPI.php

So once that's done, create a .php file (invsee.php for example) right next to JSONAPI's SDK :

PHP:

<?php

// Include JSONAPI's PHP SDK
require_once("JSONAPI.php");

$host = "mc.example.com"; // The IP of your server
$port = 20059; // The port JSONAPI is running on
$user = "admin"; // The admin username to login
$pass = "changeme"; // The password of the user
// $salt = "optional"; // The salt to connect to your server, optional

try {
    // Create the $json object by connecting to the server with JSONAPI
    $json = new JSONAPI($host, $port, $user, $pass /* $salt */);

    $result = $json->call("getPlayerNames"); // Get the online players

    if ($array["result"] == "success" && array_key_exists("success", $result) && is_array($result["success"])) { // If the call worked
        foreach ($result["success"] as $name) { // For each player name
            echo "<br/><br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>";
            echo "Showing contents for player " . $name . ":<br/><br/>";
            $inventory = $json->call("getInventoryContents"); // Call the method we created before
            if ($inventory["result"] == "success" && array_key_exists("success", $inventory) && is_array($inventory["success"])) { // If the call worked
                foreach ($inventory["success"] as $item) { // For each itemstack in his inventory
                    echo "<br/>Item in the slot " . $i++ . " for player " . $name . ":<br/>";
                    var_dump($item); // Display the item on the page.
                }
            } else die("Error while fetching player's inventory: " . $array["error"]); // Display error and exit script
        }
    } else die("Error while fetching player list: " . $array["error"]); // Display error and exit script
} catch (Exception $e) { // Check for an error while connecting to the server
    var_dump($e);
}

?>

I added comments so that you understand what I wanted to do on each line, it will be easier to debug

PS: I have never worked with JSONAPI before, and don't have anything to test it on so it is really unlikely it works just like that, you will probably have to debug it and work a bit more on it to have it work...
Hope I helped you though

Owwww great!
I have an error:
Error while fetching player's inventory: Caught exception: java.lang.Exception: Incorrect number of args: gave 0 ([]), expected 3 for method getInventoryContents at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.dynamic.Caller.call(Caller.java:64) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.api.v2.JSONResponse.serveAPICall(JSONResponse.java:131) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.api.v2.JSONResponse.getJSONObject(JSONResponse.java:76) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.api.v2.APIv2Handler.call(APIv2Handler.java:84) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.api.v2.APIv2Handler.serve(APIv2Handler.java:52) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.JSONServer.serve(JSONServer.java:248) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.NanoHTTPD$HTTPSession.run(NanoHTTPD.java:544) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)

 

@Rilekt Oh, yes sorry. I forgot to pass the arguments to JSONAPI, you have to use this:

PHP:

$json->call("getInventoryContents", array($name));

 

@au2001
Emm, and the next error:
Error while fetching player's inventory: Caught exception: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0 at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.dynamic.Call.sigForIndices(Call.java:189) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.dynamic.Call.call(Call.java:98) at com.alecgorge.minecraft.jsonapi.dynamic.Caller$1.call(Caller.java:91) at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_8_R3.scheduler.CraftFuture.run(CraftFuture.java:89) at org.bukkit.craftbukkit.v1_8_R3.scheduler.CraftScheduler.mainThreadHeartbeat(CraftScheduler.java:350) at net.minecraft.server.v1_8_R3.MinecraftServer.B(MinecraftServer.java:722) at net.minecraft.server.v1_8_R3.DedicatedServer.B(DedicatedServer.java:374) at net.minecraft.server.v1_8_R3.MinecraftServer.A(MinecraftServer.java:653) at net.minecraft.server.v1_8_R3.MinecraftServer.run(MinecraftServer.java:556) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745)

 

@Rilekt Is this error happening after you changed the code I told you?

 

@au2001 Yes after i dont have this error.

 

@timtower This has been moved to Plugin Requests?
He doesn't really want someone to make the plugin for him...
I think it was more appropriate in Plugin Development :|

 

@au2001
I added this methods in methods.json, i can't add this in method folder beacuse my server doesn't see the invsee.json file

 

Any ideas to repair it?

 

@Rilekt Try moving the methods to the methods.json file, should work but isn't recommended I guess.
I don't know how JSONAPI works so I don't really have an idea on how to make custom .json method files...
