    Plugin category: Admin, Dev
    Suggested name: SQL Sync
    A bit about me: I'm a server host and junior plugin dev, but I don't know the first thing about making connections in java.
    What I want: When I try to use multiple database-dependant plugins, one connects to the database and fills the port so that other plugins can't connect. I would be nice if there was a plugin that connected to the database and the other plugins connected to it. The plugin that needs to access the database then sends a request to SQL Sync which retrieves and returns the requested info. I understand that this will require compatibility but I believe it would be worth it.
    Ideas for commands: none
    Ideas for permissions: none
    Willing to pay up to: Likely nothing, but if someone donates to my server I could probably pay up to $10. (dont get your hopes up)
    When I'd like it by: Theres no real hurry, but it would be great to get it by the end of February.
    Similar plugin requests: nonethat I saw
    Devs who might be interested in this: DiddiZ, oliverw92, Nijikokun, because they've made plugins using SQL

    Thats good for the programming but the problem I have is when I start up the server. I'm trying to use iConomy and Hawkeye, neither of which use that.
     
  3. I see your problem, but a third party plugin won't solve it as iConomy and Hawkeye would have to support it, too. So either way the authors had to change their plugins. At the end it's better to use bukkits API then a third party plugin.

    I don't think you really understand how databases and networks work - they don't 'fill the port' - multiple clients can connect to a mysql server on the same port.
