OPEN Plugin Developing Tutorial (Send me links of your projects!)

[Death_Dev]

Here we will talk about how to make a simple plugin! You can message me here or via PM for problems or help!

Here is how to make a simple plugin!

Download Eclipse (Java Developer Kit) or Intelij Idea for Java
Download JDK
Download your spigot.jar you want your plugin compatable with.

After doing this, start making your plugin!

Make a package named me.yourname.yourpluginname

Your Main-Class Code

public class Main extends JavaPlugin {

public void onEnable() {
System.out.println("Plugin Enabled!");

registerCommands();

}

public void registerCommands() {
getCommand("hello").setExecutor(new HelloCMD());
}

}

Make another class named HelloCMD

public class HelloCMD implements CommandExecutor {

public boolean onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command cmd, String label, String[] args) {

if (cmd.equalsIgnoreCase("hello")) {
sender.sendMessage("Hi! Welcome to the server");
}

}
return false;

}

After this, make a plugin.yml and add this content inside

name: YourPluginName
main: me.yourname.yourplugin.Main
version: 1.0
author: you

commands:
      yourcommandname:

If you made a simple plugin, feel free to send me a link! I will be happy to see what you created

Next time I will talk about booleans and player methods.

Easy tutorial but why is the registerCommand method public?

Easy tutorial but why is the registerCommand method public?

Because you can use it as an API for other future plugins.

You should call your Main class the name of the Project IMO.

Simple tutorial, but I think it will help beginners.

What... This is not really code at all..

Any person can do this ..

I'm not being rude, but when I first started I just typed off my mind and I just started learning myself on my own.

 

[mcm is after me]

@EventHandler
public void onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent e) {
Player player = e.getPlayer();
player.setBanned(true);
player.kick();
}
