Solved Iterating Through Config

I have a config like so:

Code:java

 
ranks:
A: 0
B: 50000
C: 100000
D: 250000
E: 1000000
F: 5250000
G: 10000000
H: 60000000
I: 95000000
J: 111000000
K: 150000000
L: 300000000
M: 770000000
N: 800000000
O: 910000000
P: 1075000000
Q: 4000000000
R: 6200000000
S: 8750000000
T: 8000000000
U: 10000000000
V: 13000000000
W: 20000000000
X: 35000000000
Y: 50000000000
Z: 75000000000

Is there a way I can iterate through that? I want to check which group the player is currently in and get the next one. Can anyone help?

 

I don't remember exactly but i think its something like that:

ConfigurationSection cs = getConfig()
cs.getValues(false); //this returns a HashMap<String, Object> representing config contents.

The values are identicals as on YAML (both YAML and hashMap represent Key-Value pairs)
Ex.:
Get the value of C from this hash map
HashMap<String, Object> hm = cs.getValues(false);
int c = Integer.valueOf(cs.get("c") + " ");

cs.get(...) is convertes to strong with +" " because valueOf accepts only string.

the you have to convert Objects to ints (a loop iterating over a hashmap.keySet() converting Object to string then to int)

If you need help Tahg me .

This code is written as-i-remember it and should work. feel free to look ad the docs http://jd.bukkit.org

 

Use vault to get what group the player is in.
then proceed from there

If player is in group D then obviously E group is next, so just change the players group.

Unless im misunderstanding what your trying to do .

 

I suggest doing a config for each player, something like:

Code:

Players:
 
(Player Name):
Rank:

and then use the OP to go through. it

That would mean hard coding the alphabet into the plugin not giving access to other rank names

 

If your doing what i think your trying to do, you don't have to hard code it.
I made a plugin like this, if i'm right about what you're doing.

What i made was for donors to claim their money after a server reset. i had to check what group the person was in, then i checked the config to see if that group had a value, if it did, i gave that person their money.

What you need to do is loop through all the ranks, then check if the player is in that group. here is the code i used for my plugin modified for your config.

Code:java

ConfigurationSection groups = this.getConfig().getConfigurationSection("ranks");
 
for(String gName : groups.getKeys(false)){
 
if(perms.playerInGroup(player, gName)){ //uses vault to check if player is in any of the groups define in the config.
 
long a = this.getConfig().getLong("ranks." + gName); //gets the amount of money that should be paid in your case would resolve to 'ranks.A' or 'ranks.b' etc etc.
 
this.payPlayer(player, a); //This is a method i created to pay players
 
}
 
}

if you need further help just tahg me.

 

imjack16 that is what I had done at first but it was really messy considering that these groups went from A to Prestige Free
a, b, c -> Prestige Z Prestige Free
