Taking a variable from a string

Hi i was just looking at essentials config and i found this

items:
- 277 1 digspeed:3 namewarf loreiggy|Diggy|Hole
- 278 1 efficiency:1 durability:1 name:&4Gigadrill lore:The_drill_that_&npierces|the_heavens

I just wondering how i take the
name: data
lore: data
from that string. I have no clue how to code this.

 

8803286 there is methods in the yamlconfiguration that store item stacks, not sure if they are using those, but its probbally easier to use yamlconfigs for storing items

 

Wait so do you want no title and no lore????? PM me if u reply to me so i can respond

 

for(String kit : cKits.config.getConfigurationSection("").getKeys(false)){
Integer delay = cKits.config.getInt(kit+".delay", 0);
Material icon = Material.getMaterial(cKits.config.getString(kit+".icon", "GLASS"));
String permission = cKits.config.getString(kit+".permission", "Member");

for(String item : cKits.config.getStringList(kit+".items")){
String name;
List<String> lore;
}
}

I sended the code i have

I dont know what you want tho XD srry but would you not like the name and lore???

 

I want to save the lore and the name

 

ooooooo ok lol
Go into the public void onEnable() and to it saveConfig()
It should look like this

Code:java

 
public void onEnable() {
getLogger().info("Has Been Enabled");
saveConfig();
}
 
public void onDisable() {
getLogger().info("Has Been Disabled");
saveConfig();
 
}

 

What are you talking about?

Edit: SHIT Soz i want to get the lore and the name from the config

 

If you are trying to take the data from those strings i would have a look at string splitting and java regular expressions/patterns. and once you have thoes in a string array then you can save them to a file.

P.S. if you need help saving to a file/yml file pm me

 

I know how to split strings. Should i use that?

 

You could split it on a space char but you might have to do some clever string comparisons to get the data from something like this name:&4Gigadrill. Or you could use a regex pattern which might make your life a bit easier

 

I don't know how to use regex pattern

 

Because i'm a nice guy i will go ahead and GIVE you a possible regex pattern that will work. But in the mean time please take a look at some tutorials online otherwise you will never learn how to use them. Here is one that i learned off of.

Because of the complex string and number of different combinations your best bet is to just split along a white space char or " ".

Ok

 

Use String.split() to split the strings into tokens, and then you can parse those individually.
