Solved Sending a Message to Console?

How can I log an info message to the console without having my plugin's name in square brackets at the beginning. Or how could I send a message to the console in the same format as sender.sendMessage(message) would when used in a command?

 

You can log without square brackets by creating your own logger of "Minecraft".

Code:java

/* I think thats the constructor */
Logger log = Bukkit.getLogger();
log.info("hi");

 

boboman13 That helped get me off in the right direction, but I figured out an easier way.

Code:

ConsoleCommandSender console = getServer().getConsoleSender();
console.sendMessage(message);

 

Might also be worthwhile to create a method that actually sends the console a message for you. Or you could simply just use the Logger.

Here's a snippet:

Code:java

 
public void tellConsole(String message){
    Bukkit.getConsoleSender().sendMessage(message);
}
 

 

You could also do:

Code:java

public void logMsg(String message) {
      System.out.println(message);
}
