Solved Saving enchants to a file

How the heck do I even do this? where do I start?

I've tried

Section.set("enchants", itemstack.getEnchants());

but that ends horribly

 

@thechrisanator
Most likely you don't need to save the full enchantment instance to a file. What exactly are you trying to achieve?

 

I want to save all the enchantments and their levels into a file so that I can put the into a virtual inventory upon player login @Zombie_Striker

like this:

@timtower

so I dont need all this?

Code:

        section.set("type", itemstack.getType().name());
       
        Map<Enchantment, Integer> enchants = itemstack.getEnchantments(); //create a map for the enchantments
        List<String> enchantList = new ArrayList<String>();
        for (Enchantment e : itemstack.getEnchantments().keySet()) { //loop through the itemstack's enchants
            int level = enchants.get(e); //get the level
            enchantList.add(e.getName()); //add the name to the list
            enchantList.add(Integer.toString(level)); //add the level to the list
        }

        section.set("enchants", enchantList);
        section.set("durability", itemstack.getDurability()); //write to the config file
        section.set("amount",  itemstack.getAmount());

 

geez. wow... thats actually amazing

it works beautifully!

the only issue, is that when I remove an item from the inventory, and put it somewhere else, it stays there

-- forget that

is there any way to save which slots items are in an inventory? because currently, if I have a pick in slot 5, and a sword in slot 2, they all get shifted. so sword is in 1, and pick is in 2
