Solved Scanning through sections in a YML file

Hi.

In my plugin, I am storing arena data in a yml file. However, when I load it up, I need a way to loop through the arena information in order to turn them into an arena object. However, the only way I can think of doing it is via a for loop and using numbers as the name for my arenas, which I don't really want to do unless I have to. Any ideas.

Here is how my yml file is laid out if it helps:

Code:

testarena1:
  world: world
  loc1:
    x: -233.0
    y: 72.0
    z: -38.0
  loc2:
    x: -239.0
    y: 66.0
    z: -43.0
testarena2:
  world: world
  loc1:
    x: 3.0
    y: 74.0
    z: 58.0
  loc2:
    x: 74.0
    y: 66.0
    z: 43.0

Thanks in advance for any help.

Try using this (From the MemorySection class).

Code:java

    public Set<String> getKeys(boolean deep) {
        Set result = new LinkedHashSet();
 
        Configuration root = getRoot();
        if ((root != null) && (root.options().copyDefaults())) {
            ConfigurationSection defaults = getDefaultSection();
 
            if (defaults != null) {
                result.addAll(defaults.getKeys(deep));
            }
        }
 
        mapChildrenKeys(result, this, deep);
 
        return result;
    }

 

Mrawesomecookie I have done a bit of googling before you answered, and got this so far:

Code:

        for (String key : getArenas().getConfigurationSection("Arenas").getKeys(false)) {
            Location loc1 = new Location(Bukkit.getWorld(getArenas().getString("Arenas." + key + ".world")), getArenas().getDouble("Arenas." + key + ".loc1.x"), getArenas().getDouble("Arenas." + key + ".loc1.y"), getArenas().getDouble("Arenas." + key + ".loc1.z"));
            Location loc2 = new Location(Bukkit.getWorld(getArenas().getString("Arenas." + key + ".world")), getArenas().getDouble("Arenas." + key + ".loc2.x"), getArenas().getDouble("Arenas." + key + ".loc2.y"), getArenas().getDouble("Arenas." + key + ".loc2.z"));
            Arena a = new Arena(key, loc1, loc2);
            arenalist.add(a);
        }

However, I am getting a NullPointerException on the first line of this code. Any ideas?

EDIT: Nevermind, a typo later on in the code was messing up the file. I found it, and now the problem is fixed.
