List all Strings in a Configuration Section

Hello once again!

So I am making a plugin. Here is the config:

Code:

notes:
  test: 'hello'
  test2: 'hello'
  test3: 'hello'

Basically, I want to some how get the configuration section called "notes" and display all the values in it in-game.

So in-game, I want it to be like:

"Here are the notes:
test: hello
test2: hello
test3: hello
"

I don't want to make a String List, because I need to have the names "test, test2, test3" associated with the text.

If you understand, can anyone please help?

 

Can't you just use getConfig().get("notes").toString ?

 

I think it's something like this, can't check right now:

Code:

for (String key : getConfig().getConfigurationSection("notes").getKeys(true)) {
String string = getConfig().getString("notes." + key);
// Do something with the string
}

 

@sam_0208 @TehHypnoz none of them worked...

 

You can also set test as a path itself

test: "Hello"
test2: "Hello"
etc

And get them with getConfig().getString("test").toString()

 

@Blockhead7360
Why do something like the following:

Code:

ArrayKeeper:
   notes:{test1,test2}
notes:
   test1:'hi'
   test2:'hi2'

 

What do you mean?

 

Code:

notes:
  test: 'hello'
  test2: 'hello'
  test3: 'hello'

instead of that you can use

Code:

test: "Hello"
test2: "Hello"
test3: "Hello"

and if you want to send it you use
p.sendMessage(getConfig().getString("test"))

 

This is a way of doing it, I spread it out and added comments so you can understand better.

Code:

        //returns the list of keys at the given configuration section, in this case it'd be test, test2, and test3
        //We're specifing 'false' as the paramater to getKeys() because we don't want a deep search.
        Set<String> keys = getConfig().getConfigurationSection("CONFIG-SECTION-HERE").getKeys(false);
   
        //loop through it
        for(String key : keys){
            //retrieve the value pair of the key
            String value = getConfig().getString("CONFIG-SECTION-HERE." + key);
       
            //Broadcast code here. You now have access to the key and value to do as you wish.
        }

It doesn't work. Is it because of this?

config.yml in Eclipse:

Code:

# KeepNotes Configuration
# KeepNotes by Blockhead7360

# Check out my website: http://blockhead7360.weebly.com

# REMEMBER: This is FULLY configurable in-game! Check out /note config
# However, messages that you want might not fit in the Minecraft chat bar

############
#          #
# Settings #
#          #

# A few settings for the plugin

settings:

# --- Simplified Help Menu ---

# This setting toggles between displaying all the aliases in the notes
# help menu.
# true > It will show all aliases, separated by white "|"s
# false (default) > It will just show the main arguments
# Nothing you do here will stop these aliases: ex. /notes add and /addnote


simple-help: false

prefix: '&0[&2Keep&aNotes&0]'


messages:
  no-permission: '&cAccess Denied.'







notes:
  red: hi
  yellow: hi
  green: hi

but then config.yml on the server:

Code:

# KeepNotes Configuration
# KeepNotes by Blockhead7360
#
# Check out my website: http://blockhead7360.weebly.com
#
# REMEMBER: This is FULLY configurable in-game! Check out /note config
# However, messages that you want might not fit in the Minecraft chat bar

messages: {}
notes: {}

Is it because of that? Is there a way that I could fix that? I have saveDefaultConfig();
