Need helping setting up a config.

Hey guys! This is day 3 of me developing my first plugin. My plugin is coming along well and all that it does is that whenever a player breaks a block (for this instance stone), it will give the player coal at 10%. I have done other things like breaking tall grass will get the player different seed variety, or breaking log will get the player sticks, etc...

What I would like is a way for the user to config there own block to break, the reward, and the percentage. Sort of like this:

1:
- Block: 'Stone'
- Drop: 'Coal'
- Chance: '10'

 

Alright, thanks.
How exactly will I get the config and my java to communicate?

Here is an example of my code.

Code:

    @EventHandler
    public void onBlockBreak(BlockBreakEvent e) {
        Block b = e.getBlock();
        Player p = e.getPlayer();
        Random ran = new Random();
        int choice = ran.nextInt(100) + 1;
        if (b.getType() == Material.STONE) {
            if(choice < 10) {
            p.getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.COAL));
            p.sendMessage(ChatColor.GOLD + "You have got 1 Coal!");
        } else {
            p.getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.AIR));
        }   
    }

 

Here is my new config.

Code:

Drops:
  STONE:
    COAL: 10
  LOG:
    STICK: 50
  TALL_GRASS:
    PUMPKIN_SEEDS:15
    MELON_SEEDS: 15
    BEETROOT SEEDS: 15

Uhhh, haha. I am not fully picking up what you're putting down. What would you suggest?

 

I am sorry, but I am not understanding. I would prefer to learn from example code if that's ok.

 

Well, that's very helpful. You may be familiar with all of these terms, but I am on day 3. I am not experienced in a lot like you.

 

Both. I am using Bukkit to also get me used to Java. I know the common phrase for someone like me will be "Go learn Java."

Just answer me this, please. I think I got this sort of correct.
Here is my config:

1:
- Block: 'Stone'
- Drop: 'Coal'
- Chance: '10'

And would a line similar to this call for the "Stone" block.

p.getInventory().addItem(new ItemStack(Material.getConfig().getString("1.Block")));

I am at more of a limping stage haha. Alright, thank you for your help.
