➽ ♛ Item Exchange GUI ♛ ✪

Hey!
I was wondering how abouts I could go coding a part, in which when I click on an item in a different GUI, it will clone that and store it in a different GUI, and also save it, so when the user goes back on the GUI the item(s) are still there.
Thanks,
ProMCKingz

Don't bump every couple minutes... Only every 24 hours

 

ProMCKingz Well, it is possible, you'd just need to store the data somewhere if you wanted it to work after reloads and re starts.

How can I do this?

 

You could save it to the config.yml or have your own yml file (https://forums.bukkit.org/threads/tut-custom-yaml-configurations-with-comments.142592/) don't be afraid to look around and google some stuff. You could even go as far as SQL.

How would I store the data in a config file?
And how would I manipulate it into a form of data, and re use it for a new one for every person? Gerov

 

ProMCKingz
Why don't you just use normal config.
1) Save their UUID or name in a config and a list of items under it.
2) Make your inventory & add the List of items from the config as ItemStacks
3) Open the GUI for them.

Before anyone asks "will this work". Yes, it will, I tried it before.

How would I make it load?

?

ProMCKingz ItemStacks are ConfigurationSerializable, which means that the Config API is able to serialize and deserialize ItemStacks. Simply use set(path, stack) and stack = getItemStack(path).

Code:java

SettingsManager settings = SettingsManager.getInstance();
    CompassPort CP = CompassPort.getInstance();
    SubHelmet plugin;
    public int BEACON;// This was moved
 
    public HelmetClick() {
    }
 
    @EventHandler
    public void onClick(InventoryClickEvent event) {
        HumanEntity entity = event.getWhoClicked();
        if ((entity instanceof Player)) {
            Player player = (Player) entity;
            if (event.getInventory().getName()
                    .equals(SubHelmet.getHelmetInventory().getName())) {
                event.setCancelled(true);
                ItemStack clicked = event.getCurrentItem();
                Inventory MW = MyWardrobe.getMyInventory();
                if (clicked != null) {
                    if (clicked.getType() == Material.DIAMOND_HELMET) {
                        player.closeInventory();
                        player.awardAchievement(Achievement.DIAMONDS_TO_YOU);
                        CP.getConfig().set(player.getName(), clicked);
                        player.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN + "Sucess! " + ChatColor.AQUA + "You have purchased a diamond helmet");

Doesn't save anything more in the config.yml

 

ProMCKingz I never see you call saveConfig(), so I am not surprised it doesn't save

 

fireblast709
I call it in my main class.

 

ProMCKingz
If your save config is in your onEnable then please rethink what you are doing.
1) You're saving the config on start up...
2) If you disable the plugin and the onEnable is saving the config when it re-enables, it's not going to do anything.

Therefore, to be safe, in your onEnable create a repeating task that runs every x ticks and make it do saveConfig();
That way, it is less intense on your server and you do not need to remember to put saveConfig(); at the end of everything you do to do with the config.

 

CraftCreeper6
What do you men

 

ProMCKingz
Where are you saving your Config in your Main Class? In onEnable? A method?

 

CraftCreeper6
Like so,

Code:java

public class CompassPort extends JavaPlugin {
    FileConfiguration config;
    private static Location targetPoint = null;
 
    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        CompassPort.getTarget();
        String BukkitV = Bukkit.getBukkitVersion();
        getLogger().info("Wardrobe is currently running on" + BukkitV);
        getLogger()
                .warning(
                        "Thanks for supporting this plugin, and keep supporting us, by downloading our new versions!");
        config = this.getConfig();
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new InteractListener(),
                this);
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new ClickListener(this),
                this);
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new HelmetClick (), this);
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new ChestplateClick (), this);
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new LeggingClick (), this);
        getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(new BootClick (), this);
        getCommand("wardrobe").setExecutor(new ConsoleListener());
        getCommand("wardrobe").setExecutor(new Commands(this));
        getConfig().options().copyDefaults(true);
        saveDefaultConfig();
        SettingsManager.getInstance().data.options().copyDefaults(true);
        SettingsManager.getInstance().data.addDefault("LetsHopeThisWorks", 2);
    }

 

Your saving your config in your on enable, all this will do is save the config when the plugin first starts up, which is pointless. So like I said, save frequently with a scheduler or simply save everytime you edit the config

EG you are doing getConfig.set
What is the first thing you would do after that? Save the config.
Save the config.
Get my point? If not then type saveDefaultConfig(); after you edit the config, EVERY time.

 

CraftCreeper6
I get your point, I added a save config method, however it still doesn't save, updated code:

Code:java

@EventHandler
public void onClick(InventoryClickEvent event) {
HumanEntity entity = event.getWhoClicked();
if ((entity instanceof Player)) {
Player player = (Player) entity;
if (event.getInventory().getName()
.equals(SubHelmet.getHelmetInventory().getName())) {
event.setCancelled(true);
ItemStack clicked = event.getCurrentItem();
Inventory MW = MyWardrobe.getMyInventory();
if (clicked != null) {
if (clicked.getType() == Material.DIAMOND_HELMET) {
player.closeInventory();
CP.getConfig().set(player.getName(), clicked);
CP.saveConfig();

Also when ever I click on the helmet it does not read the message "You have purchased a diamond helmet" anymore

 

ProMCKingz
What is "CP"?
Show me the class?
By the way, rather than using that class, use your main class.

Use this:

Code:java

private mainClass plugin;
public yourClassName(Main instance)
{
this.plugin = instance;
}

Then use:

Code:java

plugin.getConfig().set(path, value);
plugin.saveConfig();

Edit: Many edits o.o

 

CraftCreeper6
I do, do that. CompassPort is my main class and that is my instance. Let me show you again:

Code:java

SettingsManager settings = SettingsManager.getInstance();
    CompassPort CP = CompassPort.getInstance();
    SubHelmet plugin;
    public int BEACON;// This was moved

And my main class:

Code:java

public class CompassPort extends JavaPlugin {

 

ProMCKingz
Sorry! Didn't realise CP was your main class!
I still recommend you use:

Code:java

private mainClass plugin;
public yourClassName(Main instance)
{
this.plugin = instance;
}

 

CraftCreeper6
Its ok, I get errors when I do so. What do you mean by that? Can you re write it for my situation please. E.g yourclassname = HelmetClick

 

ProMCKingz
Sorry, never used "getInstance" before, just thought it would not allow you to do certain things. I am not sure.

You're editing & saving your config

I am not sure what the issue could possibly be...

timtower
Uh.

 

timtower
To help me?

 

timtower ?

 

timtower
What was too long?

timtower
Just read the top question part?
