Solved getting command return from chat

I know it may not be a recommended method but I am trying to get a player's account balance via dispatchCommand().

I have a dummy player setupup to "execute" command but I'm not sure how to get the data.

CODE:

Code:

if(block == event.getClickedBlock()){
                        Player shop_dummy = null;
                        Bukkit.getServer().dispatchCommand(shop_dummy,"balance " + event.getPlayer().getName());
                        //get the balance return
                    }

I'm trying to get the event player's account balance based on what essentially, (puns), /bal <playername> would return.

Alternative methods are ok, so long as it works.

 

@Guitarax PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent or something along those lines.

 

I think he means he wants to get the balance of the player.

Do you mean you want to get the balance of the player? Most servers use "Vault" as an economy plugin—if that's what you're looking for.

 

@Guitarax You can't.

 

If you can intercept the message from essentials to the console sender you can easily get the next message after dispatchCommand by something like boolean nextIsRead = true;
Then on intercept if (nextIsRead) blah blah blah.

 

Can't you just directly link to Vault? As far as I remember, they have an API built in.

 

Linked to Vault, thanks for the help
