Solved Colour Codes w/ StringList (Config)

I need to use colour codes with StringLists in my config.

code:

Code:java

 
serverselector = Bukkit.createInventory(null, 9, "Server Selector");
        ItemStack item1 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item1.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item1m = item1.getItemMeta();
        item1m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item1.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item1m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item1.lore"));
        item1.setItemMeta(item1m);
 
        ItemStack item2 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item2.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item2m = item2.getItemMeta();
        item2m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item2.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item2m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item2.lore"));
        item2.setItemMeta(item2m);
 
        ItemStack item3 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item3.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item3m = item3.getItemMeta();
        item3m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item3.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item3m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item3.lore"));
        item3.setItemMeta(item3m);
 
        ItemStack item4 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item4.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item4m = item4.getItemMeta();
        item4m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item4.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item4m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item4.lore"));
        item4.setItemMeta(item4m);
 
        ItemStack item5 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item5.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item5m = item5.getItemMeta();
        item5m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item5.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item5m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item5.lore"));
        item5.setItemMeta(item5m);
 
        ItemStack item6 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item6.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item6m = item6.getItemMeta();
        item6m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item6.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item6m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item6.lore"));
        item6.setItemMeta(item6m);
 
        ItemStack item7 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item7.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item7m = item7.getItemMeta();
        item7m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item7.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item7m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item7.lore"));
        item7.setItemMeta(item7m);
 
        ItemStack item8 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item8.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item8m = item8.getItemMeta();
        item8m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item8.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item8m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item8.lore"));
        item8.setItemMeta(item8m);
 
        ItemStack item9 = new ItemStack(Material.valueOf(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item9.item").toUpperCase()), 1);
        ItemMeta item9m = item9.getItemMeta();
        item9m.setDisplayName(this.getConfig().getString("server-selector.item9.name").replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        item9m.setLore(this.getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.item9.lore"));
        item9.setItemMeta(item9m);

 

put color codes in config like "&4Server"

 

@BaconStripzMan You also need to translate the color codes of the lore to the correct ones. With the names of the items you already used '.replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2")' to translate the color codes, you can also add that to the lore string.

An even better way that also supports things like bold and italic is using the 'ChatColor.translateAlternateColorCodes('&', <your string>)'.

 

Trying that now

Woops! Didn't even realise I wasn't changing the Color Codes but there is no replaceAll method for Lists

@BaconStripzMan
Thats inefficient, try for use a loop to get the items etc from the config

 

Don't worry, figured it out. For anyone that's interested:

Code:java

 
    ArrayList<String> lore1 = new ArrayList<String>();
    Inventory serverselector = Bukkit.createInventory(null, 9, "woop");
    {
        for(String lorelist : getConfig().getStringList("server-selector.1.lore")){
            lore1.add(lorelist.replaceAll("(&([a-fk-o0-9]))", "\u00A7$2"));
        }

 

Pro-tip: ItemStacks are ConfigurationSerializable
