IChatBaseComponent help

Hello all,
I have a method that creates hoverable text however, I'm not sure how to include it into a sentence. For example, it can only currently be printed on it's own like but I wan't it to be like "Hello there, INFO and stuff."
INFO being the hoverable text.

Here's my current code:

Code:

public static void printHoverable(String playerName, String chatMessage, String clickableMessage, String hoverMessage) {
IChatBaseComponent chatBase = new ChatMessage(chatMessage);
 
chatBase.setChatModifier(new ChatModifier());
chatBase.getChatModifier().setChatClickable(new ChatClickable(EnumClickAction.SUGGEST_COMMAND, clickableMessage));
chatBase.getChatModifier().a(new ChatHoverable(EnumHoverAction.SHOW_TEXT, new ChatMessage(hoverMessage)));
 
PlayerList list = MinecraftServer.getServer().getPlayerList();
list.getPlayer(playerName).sendMessage(chatBase);
}

Thanks in advance.

 

Do this EnumClickAction.SOME_ENUM_VALUE.a() or for EnumHoverAction: EnumHoverAction.SOME_ENUM_VALUE.b()

 

That only adds to the hoverMessage or clickableMessage. I want them to be two separate strings, one that is hoverable and one that is not.

 

Bump

 

InfamousSheep this is how i do it, i created this class that handles fancy text. this is so much better than a 10 class lib. its pretty self explanatory just send it to a player after you finish your message

Code:

public class FancyText {
 
 
    LinkedHashMap<String, MessageComponent> message = new LinkedHashMap<String, MessageComponent>();
 
 
    public FancyText addText(String text){
        this.message.put(text, new MessageComponent(text, null, null));
        return this;
    }
 
    public FancyText addClickableLink(String text,String link){
        this.message.put(link, new MessageComponent(text, link, EnumClickAction.OPEN_URL));
        return null;
 
 
 
    }
 
    public FancyText addRunnableCommand(String text, String command){
 
        this.message.put(text, new MessageComponent(text, command, EnumClickAction.RUN_COMMAND));
        return this;
    }
 
    public FancyText addChatSuggestion(String text,String suggestion){
 
        this.message.put(text, new MessageComponent(text, suggestion, EnumClickAction.SUGGEST_COMMAND));
 
        return this;
        }
 
 
    public FancyText addHoverEvent(String text, String hover){
 
        this.message.put(text, new MessageComponent(text,hover ,EnumHoverAction.SHOW_TEXT));
 
        return this;
        }
 
 
 
 
    public void sendToPlayer(Player player){
        ChatComponentText master = new ChatComponentText("");
        for (String text: message.keySet()){
            for (IChatBaseComponent m: message.get(text).compile()) {
                master.a(m);
                }
   
            }
        Nms.getCraftPlayer(player).playerConnection.sendPacket(new PacketPlayOutChat(master));
        }
 
    public void sendToAllPlayers(){
        for (Player player: Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers()){
            this.sendToPlayer(player);
        }
    }
    public class MessageComponent {
 
        Enum<?> e;
        String data;
        String text;
        IChatBaseComponent[] chat;
 
        public MessageComponent(String text, String data, Enum<?> e){
        this.e = e;
        this.text = text;
        this.data = data;
        chat = CraftChatMessage.fromString(text);
        }
 
 
 
 
 
        public IChatBaseComponent[] compile(){
            for (IChatBaseComponent c: chat){
            if (data == null || e == null){
   
                return chat;
            }
                if (e instanceof EnumClickAction){
                c.getChatModifier().setChatClickable(new ChatClickable((EnumClickAction) e, data));
                }else if (e instanceof EnumHoverAction){
                    c.getChatModifier().a((new ChatHoverable((EnumHoverAction)e, new ChatComponentText(data))));
                }
            }
   
            return chat;
        }
 
    }
 
 
}

 

Can you give me some example code for this utility?
Also, on like 68 class "Nms" cannot be resolved.

 

InfamousSheep thats just a utility i use to get the CraftPlayer from Player.

u can use

Code:java

 CraftPlayer cp = (CraftPlayer)player;
EntityPlayer ep = cp.getHandle();

then here is how i use it to create rank prefixs

Code:java

FancyText commander = new FancyText();
commander.addHoverEvent(ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + "✯ " + ChatColor.AQUA + player.getName() + ": ", ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + "Rank: Commander, " + ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + "RealName:" + " " + player.getName());
commander.sendToPlayer(player); 

 

It returns nothing.

Code:

public void sendToPlayer(Player player) {
ChatComponentText master = new ChatComponentText("");
for (String text : message.keySet()){
for (IChatBaseComponent m : message.get(text).compile()) {
master.a(m);
}
} ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(new PacketPlayOutChat(master));
}

 

InfamousSheep oh sorry i didnt fully read your post, but why do you need to return the string? this directly sends it to the player. i dont think you can convert the fancy messages into regular messages there might be a way, but i dont i know why you would need to.

 

That's what I'm doing XD
commander.sendToPlayer(player);

 

InfamousSheep im confused about what your asking now could you explain further?

 

I need hoverable text to be added in a string because at the moment, it can only be in it's own message.
For example: "Welcome, INFO" the underlined text is the only text that is hoverable in that string.

 

InfamousSheep im still a bit confused on what your asking, but you can add plain text with the addText("your text here") then you can add hoverable text with addHoverEvent(String text, String hover); all the text is placed in the message in the order you put it.

Code:

FancyText text = new FancyText();
text.addText("Welcome,");
text.addHoverableText("Info", "here is the information";

 

That's exactly what I did, still returns null :L

 

InfamousSheep stack trace and updated code?

 

There aren't any errors in console.

Code:

FancyText text = new FancyText();
text.addHoverEvent("Message", "Hover");
text.sendToPlayer(player);
 
public FancyText addHoverEvent(String text, String hover) {
this.message.put(text, new MessageComponent(text, hover, EnumHoverAction.SHOW_TEXT));
return this;
}
 
public void sendToPlayer(Player player) {
ChatComponentText master = new ChatComponentText("");
for (String text : message.keySet()){
for (IChatBaseComponent m : message.get(text).compile()) {
master.a(m);
}
} ((CraftPlayer) player).getHandle().playerConnection.sendPacket(new PacketPlayOutChat(master));
}

 

you said it returns null. i have no idea what your talking about now whats the problem?

Wait what your suppose to create the FancyText text = new FancyText(); in another class or where ever you are using it. are you even calling that code from a method???

 

It sends me a blank message and yeah, they're in separate classes that's just how I displayed the code.

 

InfamousSheep post all of your code

 

Same thing happens to me, Blank space in chat

I tested it, InfamousSheep is right, it is just displaying an empty line.

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Code:

if (args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("jmsg")){
                    player.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED + "Test 1 cleared!");
                    FancyText m = new FancyText();
                    m.addText("[");
                    m.addHoverEvent("1056", "1054");
                    m.addHoverEvent("1056", "1058");
                    m.addHoverEvent("1056", "1056");
                    m.addText("]" + player.getName() + ": This is a test for JSON!");
                    m.sendToPlayer(player);
                    
                    FancyText commander = new FancyText();
                    commander.addHoverEvent(ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + "* " + ChatColor.AQUA + player.getName() + ": ", ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + "Rank: Commander, " + ChatColor.DARK_AQUA + "RealName:" + " " + player.getName());
                    commander.sendToPlayer(player); 
                    
                }

The out put is(the bottom one is the one with your own code):

 

Problem solved:

Code:

BaseComponent[] hoverText = new ComponentBuilder("Some text displayed when we hover over INFO").create();
HoverEvent hoverEvent = new HoverEvent(HoverEvent.Action.SHOW_TEXT, hoverText);
BaseComponent[] message = new ComponentBuilder("Hello there, ").append("INFO").event(hoverEvent).create();
player.spigot().sendMessage(message);

Only thing is that you have to use a patched version of spigot.

 

what is that

No wonder, doesn't work compiling in 1.7.10

 

ResultStatic
Straight 1.7.9 or the one with 1.8 compat?

 

I'm using Spigot as an import and not Bukkit. The version is 1.7.10 that's probably why it didn't work.

 

i just saw that message. now that i think of it i am running spigot on my test server but i dont have that code in there. i dont see why that would effect the messages who knows

 

Would this work on latest spigot if compiled with 1.7.9?

Edit: ChatComponentText master = new ChatComponentText(""); this line seems to be the cause

 

CullanP i have no idea what version of 1.7.9 i have. well they are going to close this thread for even mentioning spigot... they are so uptight about it ridiculous in my opinion
