Chest Menu

Basically, I want to learn coding, I have learned some codes and now, I really want to know how I code a Chest Menu, like, you typing a command and it opens a Chest Menu with things you can click and hower and not movable. What is the codes I need to use to make it? btw, I know Chest Commands.

1. InventoryClickEvent
2. Check to see if the inventory is the correct inventory, the cancel the event
3. Compare the ItemStack clicked and then run code.

 

@Henriksen1000
Use Bukkit.createInventory() and use InventoryClickEvents (as said above) to check the clicking.

 

I usually write my own InventoryView object (which extends the mentioned interface), so when the event is called I check if the inventory is instance of my class. If it does, then I continue to handle it. This way the inventories can be any inventory, and the check is not instance-based, but class based, which is like 'universal' and faster than like checking if a list of inventories contains the one in the event.

Code:

public class MyInventoryView implements InventoryView { ... }

...
public void onInventoryClick(InventoryClickEvent e) {
  if (!(e.getView() instanceof MyInventoryView)) return;
  //handle the custom menu whatever inventory it contains
  e.setCancelled(true);
  //do whatever you want.
  //the click informations like index is in the event (e) argument
  //in case of premade menus you usually use only the (raw)index
  //not even caring about which item you clicked
}
...

 

I still don't understand how I make a GUI like this and how I add items in it...
