Developers Getting Started

Getting the dependency

You can get the latest snapshot releases by going over to JitPack here: https://jitpack.io/#Puharesource/TitleManager, but if you want to get official release go with the following repository and dependencies.

The Repository

Example for Gradle:

maven {
    name 'puharesource-repo'
    url 'http://repo.puha.io/repo/'
}

Example for Maven:

<repository>
  <id>puha-repo</id>
  <url>http://repo.puha.io/repo/</url>
</repository>

The dependency

Example for Gradle:

compile group: 'io.puharesource.mc', name: 'TitleManager', version: '2.0.0'

Example for Maven

<dependency>
   <groupId>io.puharesource.mc</groupId>
   <artifactId>TitleManager</artifactId>
   <version>2.0.0</version>
</dependency>

plugin.yml

If your plugin can't run without TitleManager add the following line to your plugin.yml file.

depend: [TitleManager]

If your plugin can run without TitleManager, then add the following line to your plugin.yml file instead

soft-depend: [TitleManager]

Getting the API instance

Once you want to use TitleManager's API, you'll need an instance of TitleManagerAPI, which carries all of the methods available for TitleManager. I suggest getting the instance once you load your plugin and store it somewhere easily accessible, for this example I'll however just be storing it locally in the onEnable method.

Java

@Override
public void onEnable() {
  TitleManagerAPI api = (TitleManagerAPI) Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("TitleManager");
}

Kotlin

For kotlin I suggest using the lazy delegate for storing the instance of TitleManager globally.

val titleManagerAPI : TitleManagerAPI by lazy { Bukkit.getServer().pluginManager.getPlugin("TitleManager") }
