A little help

Hi there,​

I was wondering if you could help me with a plugin im trying to develop. I am beginner (self taught) coder and im having trouble. Its simple stuff that I can't implement.​

​

i.e- Help command, reload command.​

​

Stuff that I have implemented:​

- /profile command​

-/profile <playername> (player must be online)​

​

Things I would like to change/having trouble with:​

- Help command​

- Reload command​

- allowing /profile <player> to view offline players​

- Putting my code on multiple javas and linking it to main java.​

- A color utils so I can use &[a-f, 0-9] in my coding.​

​

If you could help me, thats what I would like done.​

P.S- As you can see, I have already put in color codes without a util :\​

​

Note- Anything saying "NotConnected!" I will be able to implement myself. Just the commands I am having trouble with.​

​

Also I am planning in releasing this after I get commands finished and implement some other things into it, eg- permissions and other options (editable)​

Thanks,​

Mistaa​

                player.sendMessage("oOo__________[MistaProfile]__________oOo");
                    player.sendMessage("Name: " + player.getDisplayName());
                    player.sendMessage("First Online: " + "NotConnected!");
                    player.sendMessage("Last Online: " + "NotConnected!");
                    player.sendMessage("Total Time Online: " + "NotConnected!");
                    player.sendMessage("Balance: " + "NotConnected!");

                } else if (args.length == 1) {
                    if(player.getServer().getPlayer(args[0]) != null) {
                        Player targetplayer = player.getServer().getPlayer(args[0]);   
                  player.sendMessage("oOo__________[MistaProfile]__________oOo");
                      player.sendMessage("Name: " + targetplayer.getDisplayName());
                      player.sendMessage("First Online: " + "NotConnected!");
                      player.sendMessage("Last Online: " + "NotConnected!");
                      player.sendMessage("Total Time Online: " + "NotConnected!");
                      player.sendMessage("Balance: " + "NotConnected!");
                      player.sendMessage("Rank/Title: " + "NotConnected!");
                    } else {
                        player.sendMessage(pluginTag + ChatColor.WHITE + " This player is offline!");
                    }
                }
            }
            return false;
        }
}

 

>.<

In your actual code you can just use ChatColor to add color to messages, e.g:

Code:

player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "You can't do that!" + ChatColor.BLUE + "This is an example!");

Your profile command just shows the same messages no matter what, all of them being "&bNotConnected" so what does it matter if the player is online or offline?

 

Yeah, I did that for some of it, but the color codes is just easier for longer messages
Each one will be connected to another plugin. For example: Balance will be connected to iConomy later showing the balance of each player. The main point is to show a profile of another player. Showing their player total time, first registered, credits and more!

 

It isn't easier for long messages once you know how to do it ^-^
Anyway, you would connect it to vault to do that, so it has support for multiple economy plugins etc.

 

Thanks! Any ideas on how I can implement the stuff I had trouble with?

 

What are you trying to implement?

 

- Help command
- Reload command
- allowing /profile <player> to view offline players not just online
I know its easy, but im new to java

 

did you try it first whitout our help?

 

What help? I just asked. And yes! Tried many times and failed as the plugin wouldn't run because of an error, I tried adding another public boolean onCommand1(etc, etc, etc) and it didnt work.

 

example of 1 command

Code:java

 
public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {
	Player player = null;
	if (sender instanceof Player) {
		player = (Player) sender;
	}
 
	if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("basic")){
		// do something...
		return true;
	}
	return false;
}

2 commands:

Code:java

public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {
	Player player = null;
	if (sender instanceof Player) {
		player = (Player) sender;
	}
 
	if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("basic")){ 
		// do something...
		return true;
	} else if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("basic2")) {
		// do something else...
		return true;
	}
	return false;
}

you can gues how it look whit 3 commands, I dont gona give it, because I dont like copy/paste-people

 

rofl.. but anyway for a help command, its just to add the onCommand method in your code and check when the player type "/yourplugin help" or just /help and for the reload, do you mean the whole server? or just the plugin config? Also, /profile the fuq? so it returns what? the location of the player? please tell me what excactly you mean.


EDIT::

http://wiki.bukkit.org/HUGE_Plugin_Tutorial

 

I dont copy paste, but thanks. I try to go through the code and understand it. Self taught..

/profile returns with a series of messages.

 

mista_ninja_3 have you read this? http://wiki.bukkit.org/HUGE_Plugin_Tutorial
I do recommend it if youre new to the Bukkit API & Java.

 

Yeah, thanks bajsko. I'll take a look at it, recently I have just been learning of Vids.

 

np, hope it helps

 

Code:

package me.mista.mistaprofile;
 
import org.bukkit.command.Command;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandExecutor;
import org.bukkit.command.CommandSender;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
 
public class MistaProfileCommandExecutor implements CommandExecutor {
 
    public MistaProfile plugin;
 
    public MistaProfileCommandExecutor(MistaProfile plugin) {
        this.plugin = plugin;
    }
 
    @Override
    public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String commandLabel, String[] args) {
        Player player = (Player) sender;
        if(cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("mp help")){
        player.sendMessage("oOo__________[MistaProfile Help]__________oOo");
        player.sendMessage("/mp help - Displays this help screen");
        player.sendMessage("/mprofile - Displays your profile");
        player.sendMessage("/mprofile <player_name> - Displayer targetplayers profile");
        player.sendMessage("/mp reload - Reloads MistaProfile");
        player.sendMessage("/mp version - Retreives the current available version");
     
            return true;
            }
    return false;
  }
}

Code:

package me.mista.mistaprofile;
 
import java.util.logging.Logger;
 
import org.bukkit.plugin.PluginDescriptionFile;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;
 
public class MistaProfile extends JavaPlugin{
   
          public static MistaProfile plugin;
        public final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("Minecraft");
          private MistaProfileCommandExecutor myExecutor;
         
        @Override
        public void onDisable() {
            PluginDescriptionFile pdfFile = this.getDescription();
            this.logger.info(pdfFile.getName() + " is now disabled!");
        }
     
        @Override
        public void onEnable() {
            PluginDescriptionFile pdfFile = this.getDescription();
            this.logger.info( pdfFile.getName() + " version " + pdfFile.getVersion() + " is now enabled!");
           
            myExecutor = new MistaProfileCommandExecutor(this);
            getCommand("mphelp").setExecutor(myExecutor);
        }
}

Does this work? Please answer!

 

no, since commands cant have spaces inside it, however bukkit wont throw an error if its found, bukkit commands works like: split the user iput by spaces, the first is the command, send the other part to the arg[] at the command methode

 

i havnt tested it but yes, that seems to work in my eyes. go go go

 

Got rid of the spaces and edited everything, and now I am coming up with an error.

Using this thread, decode your stack-trace and find out what the issue is

 

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: me/mista/mistaprofile/MistaProfileCommandExecutor
it cant find that class

 

if you need more help, just pm me

 

You should never ask for help in a PM, help should be done publicly so people don't always have to create a thread about it.

 

hah lol... Sure thing dude, will never happen again..

 

The error = define the main class (javaplugin one) into the plugin.yml, it cant find the class you put in,

 

Thanks for clarifying that! I fixed it
