Per Player Flatfile Database

Hey,

I want to save playerdata in my plugin. Does anyone of you know any resource / tutorial for that?
I already made a config.yml file, but I don't know how to make a file per player. Please help ?

 

File f = new File(getDataFile(), "/path/" + player.getName() + ".yml");
f.createNewFile() //surrounded with try / catch
YamlConfiguration playeryaml = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(f);
then..
you can
playeryaml.set("isTree", true);
playeryaml.getBoolean("isTree");

Pizza371 Where should I put the first 3 lines?

 

FlawlezZ well it would be smart to put it in as a local variable since variables will change every time (with player names).
Although you could create a methhod such as
private YamlConfiguration getPlayerYaml(Player p) {
File f = new File(getDataFolder(), "/" + path + p.getName() + ".yml");
if(!(f.exists())) f.createNewFile();
YamlConfiguration y = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(f);
return y;
}
So then you could make someone a yaml file w/ getPlayerYaml(p).callMethod();

 

Pizza371 Thx so far. Does path mean plugins/Prostitutionplugin/ or just Prostituionplugin/ ?

What's wrong with this?The boolean always returns false even though the player is existing.

public String playerfolder = "players/";

Code:java

 
    public boolean existsPlayer(String name){
        List<File> l = Arrays.asList(new File(playerfolder).listFiles());
        for(File f : l){
            if(f.getName().equalsIgnoreCase(name + ".yml")){
                return true;
            }
        }    
    return false;
    }
