Getting list from a file

So i have multiple ymls in my plugin's data folder which each contain a list called "members"

Code:

members: [Dogeritos, Dogescoper]

How do i go through all the files in the data folder and find which one's list contains a certain string?

Btw, I'm using lovely @nverdier 's EnviousAPI for my files

 

config.getStringList("key");

 

Okay but...

I want to loop through all the files in the data folder and find which one contains a certain key .-. Help please

Code:

String path = "YOUR_PATH";
File folder = new File(path);
File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();

for(File p : listOfFiles){
    //code
}

How do i read the files? More specifically, check if it contains a certain string

 

@DogeDebugger

Code:

YamlConfiguration a = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(p);
String test = a.getString("YOUR_PATH");

wow thanks

Hey, can you help me with this code? It's supposed to see if both player's names are in the same file.

Code:

@EventHandler
    public void hit(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event) {
        Bukkit.getServer().broadcastMessage("test messsage 1");
        Player e = (Player) event.getEntity();
        Entity e2 = ((EntityDamageByEntityEvent) e).getDamager();
        String path = "plugins/UHCTeams";
        File folder = new File(path);
        File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();

        for (File p : listOfFiles) {
            YamlConfiguration a = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(p);
            if (a.getStringList("members").contains(((Player) e2).getName())
                    && a.getStringList("members").contains(e.getName())) {
                Bukkit.getServer().broadcastMessage("test message 2");
                event.setCancelled(true);
            }
        }
    }

 

Don't try to do that ... You're looping all files whenever a entity hit another entity, and you didnt even check if the entity and the damager are players.

 

If you're doing what I think you're doing. I'd recommend using a hashmap and just storing the player-name/team and then checking if they're inside the map on the same team. If they are, just cancel the event or if you're just keeping player names in a yml and never removing them from the file. You could store the players in the map from the yml and then use it in your event. This would drastically reduce the lag

 

The situation won't have any mobs besides players.

Okay, that makes sense. How can i create a new Hashmap/Team when a player does a command to create a new team?

@justin_393

um
ok

Do u know how to save a hashmap in a yml?
