Util ItemBuilder - Chainable Item Constructor

Hello everyone. I figured I should share a tool that I use in my plugins, an item builder! This allows you to construct items in an easier fashion.

Get the code here.

To get started, create a new ItemBuilder instance, like this

Code:

ItemBuilder builder = new ItemBuilder();

All item builders can be turned into ItemStacks by calling the build methods

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = new ItemBuilder().type(Material.DIRT).name("§c§lSome Cool Name").build();

To set the item type, call the "type" method

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = new ItemBuilder().type(Material.DIRT).build();

To set the item amount, call the "amount" method

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = new ItemBuilder().type(Material.DIRT).amount(2).build();

To set the item data, call the "data" method

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = new ItemBuilder().type(Material.STAINED_GLASS_PANE).amount(1).data((byte) 14).build();

To set the item name, call the "name" method

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = new ItemBuilder().type(Material.STAINED_GLASS_PANE).amount(1).name("§cSome awesome name").data((byte) 14).build();

To set the item lore, call the "lore" method

Code:

ItemStack itemStack = new ItemBuilder().type(Material.STAINED_GLASS_PANE).amount(1).name("§cSome awesome name").lore("Some", "awesome", "lore").data((byte) 14).build();

That's all! Thanks for reading this thread.

Just to name a few.

 

Just saying, you have such an ItemStack builder in your EnviousAPI too ^^

 

@FisheyLP Because if you're using an API already it's kind of annoying to add another one just for item stacks I guess

 

@FisheyLP I use that for my own use and I prefer to make everything on my own, so yes, I do have it in my library. It doesn't mean people have to use my class, I don't think it's the best out there, it doesn't have the most features.
