    You could just use iConomy's itemdb and set the major item to be emeralds :p

    I don't understand the point of rewriting things that already written. If I had known about iconomys itemdb, I might never have written GoldIsMoney which also does this. Also, you should think about hooking into Vault if you want to make this usable to any decent base.

    I see, you're not trying to make a new economy, you're looking to create a a shop or trade interface that uses emeralds and the villager gui. An "economy" as is normally used in bukkit is a plugin (like iConomy or BOSEconomy) that facilitates a monetary unit which can be hooked into by other plugins (such as ChestShop, floAuction, Towny, Factions, etc.) as a means of selling or purchasing goods and/or services. Writing a whole new economy just to access the villager gui is overkill because the Villager gui is only capable of trading actual items, which would have to be converted in some manner anyways (like GoldIsMoney and iConomy's itemdb already do) to facilitate linking with other plugins.

    Besides this, I don't think Bukkit is ready to be hooked into in the manner you desire to use the interface. It also didn't seem like there was a cap on trades which could be controlled on the server side in a way that would be passed to the client readily. But, nevertheless, good luck on your adventure.

    Actually, Shopkeepers allows you to use actual Villagers for trading.
