Overview of this book

Minecraft is a sandbox game that allows you to play it in any way you want. Coupled with a multiplayer server powered by Spigot, you can customize the game even more! Using the Bukkit API, anyone interested in learning how to program can control their Minecraft world by developing server plugins. This book is a great introduction to software development through the wonderful world of Minecraft. We start by instructing you through how to set up your home PC for Minecraft server development. This includes an IDE complete with the required libraries as well as a Spigot server to test on. You will be guided through writing code for several different plugins. Each chapter teaches you new skills to create plugins of increasing complexity, and each plugin adds a new concept of the Bukkit API By the end of the book, you will have all the knowledge you need about the API to successfully create any type of plugin. You can then practice and build your Java skills through developing more mods for their server.

Assigning a permission node to a plugin command


Now that we have created the permission node, we want to prevent players from using the enchant command if they do not have the enchanter.enchant node. This process is simple, as it only requires adding a few more lines to the plugin.yml file.

For the enchant command, we will add two attributes, namely permission and permission-message. The permission attribute is simply the permission node that is needed to execute the command. The permission-message attribute is a message that the player will see if they do not have the necessary permissions. After these additions, the plugin.yml file will look like this:

name: Enchanter
version: 0.2
main: com.codisimus.enchanter.Enchanter
description: Used to quickly put enchantments on an item
commands:
  enchant:
    aliases: [e]
    description: Adds enchantments to the item in your hand
    usage: Hold the item you wish to enchant and type /enchant
    permission: enchanter.enchant
    permission-message...
