Solved Um help!

Um i have no errors in eclipse but my command /hi wont work anyone know? http://pastebin.com/y8d0uuUV

 

@quack123456 Is it registered?

 

• Casting CommandSender to Player before checking = bad
• Unless you didn't paste the entire class, you're missing a closing bracket at the end.
• Don't use Minecraft's logger, use your own.
• Make sure your command is registered in plugin.yml

 

@SuperOriginal here is my yml http://pastebin.com/QL4A0JPX

 

@quack123456 Are you getting an exception in your console on startup?

 

Your YAML is incorrect

Code:

Name:BukkitPlugin

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML

 

@Skionz is this right? http://pastebin.com/afkC1HA3

 

@quack123456
Run it through a YAML parser.

 

@quack123456 It should be yes.

 

@Skionz it still doesnt work?
Name: BukkitPlugin
Description: First Project!
main: me.kyle.BukkitPlugin
Version: 1.0
author: Kyle
commands:
hi:
description: Type hi for a hello!

 

@quack123456 I would go on youtube and look up bukkit plugin tutorials. Almost all of them have a plugin YML file in the description, or download a simple plugin and take its plugin YML and rename it to match your plugin.

 

@Irantwomiles No no no no no, most youtube tutorials are horrible, they teach really bad practices


@quack123456 Have you tried looking at this? http://wiki.bukkit.org/Plugin_YAML

 

well thats how i made this plugin from a youtube tutorial so probaly why im doing so bad

 

I dunno why that isn't working for oyu, Wish you luck.

 

@Konato_K this isnt working still i got an error message when i was exporting it. it said the yml file was out of sync or something

Name: bukkitplugin
Version: 1.0
main: me.kyle.bukkitplugin

 

@quack123456 Have you tried using lowercase keys?

 

@quack123456

If your plugin is indeed not loading, there should be a stack trace ("error message") in your server's console, that should point to the error you're having.

 

@Konato_K where in the yaml?

 

@quack123456 name, main, and version (The word "main", "name", and "version")

 

that still didnt work
@Ambamore2000

 

@quack123456
What is your current problem? Is it not loading up and throws an error in the console when trying to run plugin on the server, or you cannot export it (as mentioned by you above)?

 

um once i do my command /hi it just says unknown command
@Gater12

 

@quack123456
Have you included declared hi as a command in your current plugin.yml?

 

name: bukkitplugin
version: 1.0
main: me.kyle.bukkitplugin


@Gater12 thats my yaml but once i put a command in an online Yaml Parser it says null

@Gater12 okay i figured out what i did wrong with commands but it still doesnt work
here is it

name: bukkitplugin
version: 1.0
main: me.kyle.bukkitplugin
commands:
hi

commands:
hi:
description: Blah
otherstuff

 

@Ambamore2000 so I only need description? Like this?

name: bukkitplugin
version: 1.0
main: me.kyle.bukkitplugin
commands:
hi:
description: Blah

Do i need at stuff under the description?

@quack123456

It's not required, however I believe if you have one it cannot be empty. Make sure to indent properly with SPACES.

 

@mythbusterma i did 2 spaces for the command and 4 spaces for the description and what do i need to put under description

 

@quack123456

It's quite irrelevant what you put there, although it should ideally describe what the command does.

 

@mythbusterma I really dont care what i write i just and to see if this works since this is my first plugin. Im not actually going to use this.
