determine entity attacker

how would i go about determining the entities attacker if i use the onEntityDamage Event

 

Code:

public void onEntityDamage(EntityDamageEvent event)
{
    if (event.isCancelled())
        return;

    if (event instanceof EntityDamageByEntityEvent)
    {
        EntityDamageByEntityEvent edbeEvent = (EntityDamageByEntityEvent)event;
        Entity attacker = edbeEvent.getDamager();
    }
}

 

thank you if a entity was shot by a skeleton or human is it possible get a reference to that skeleton or human

 

This should work:

Code:

public void onEntityDamage(EntityDamageEvent event)
{
    if (event.isCancelled())
        return;

    if (event instanceof EntityDamageByProjectileEvent)
    {
        EntityDamageByProjectileEvent edbpEvent = (EntityDamageByProjectileEvent)event;
        Entity projectile = edbpEvent.getProjectile();

        if (projectile instanceof Arrow)
        {
            Entity shooter = edbpEvent.getDamager();

            if (shooter instanceof Player || shooter instanceof Skeleton)
            {
                //do stuff
            }
        }
    }
}

 

thanks
