Util [Save/Paste] Schematics via WorldEdit 6

Currently in class so I do not have much time to document or explain the code, however the code is pretty easy to read and self-explanatory...

The management of schematics seem to be a common issue, I had some issues upgrading to WorldEdit 6's API with the deprecation of ClipboardHolder, etc...

So after successfully hooking into WE6's API I decided to release this to the community for anyone whom may be encountering the same issue.

Using this API is as simple as:

Code:

// Saves player's clipboard as a schematic with declared name 'schematicName'
Schematic.save(player, schematicName);

and

Code:

// Loads a specified schematic by name (no need to include extension) and paste it at declared 'pasteLoc'
Schematic.paste(schematicName, pasteLoc);

Schematic.java

Code:

import java.io.IOException;

You should check to make sure WorldEdit is on the server before calling to this API!

Code:

private void setupWorldEdit() {
        Plugin plugin = getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("WorldEdit");
        if (plugin == null || !(plugin instanceof WorldEditPlugin))
            return;

        worldEditSupport = true;
        worldEdit = (WorldEditPlugin) plugin;
        getServer().getConsoleSender().sendMessage(Settings.getInstance().title + "enabled WorldEdit support!");
    }

Any suggestions to my code are welcome!

 

Reserve.

 

This is really awesome, I am going to play with it! Thanks for this

 

Is there any way I can also restore AIR blocks? In my Arena the players Place Blocks, and when using Schematics.paste
it only replaces Blocks that did exist before, not Blocks that didnt.

 

Could you add ability to rotate
