      플러그인 내장 데이터팩을 가지고 있는지 확인합니다.
      Returns:
      내장 데이터팩 여부

    • getLoadOrder

      PluginLoadOrder getLoadOrder()
      Returns the phase of the server startup logic that the plugin should be loaded.
      Returns:
      the plugin load order
      See Also:

    • getVersion

      String getVersion()
      Provides the version of this plugin as defined by the plugin. There is no inherit format defined/enforced for the version of a plugin, however a common approach might be semantic versioning.
      Returns:
      the string representation of the plugin's version

    • getLoggerPrefix

      @Nullable String getLoggerPrefix()
      Provides the prefix that should be used for the plugin logger. The logger prefix allows plugins to overwrite the usual default of the logger prefix, which is the name of the plugin.
      Returns:
      the specific overwrite of the logger prefix as defined by the plugin. If the plugin did not define a custom logger prefix, this method will return null

    • getPluginDependencies

      List<String> getPluginDependencies()
      Provides a list of dependencies that are required for this plugin to load. The list holds the unique identifiers, following the constraints laid out in getName(), of the dependencies.

      If any of the dependencies defined by this list are not installed on the server, this plugin will fail to load.

      Returns:
      an immutable list of required dependency names

    • getPluginSoftDependencies

      List<String> getPluginSoftDependencies()
      Provides a list of dependencies that are used but not required by this plugin. The list holds the unique identifiers, following the constraints laid out in getName(), of the soft dependencies.

      If these dependencies are installed on the server, they will be loaded first and supplied as dependencies to this plugin, however the plugin will load even if these dependencies are not installed.

      Returns:
      immutable list of soft dependencies

    • getLoadBeforePlugins

      List<String> getLoadBeforePlugins()
      Provides a list of plugins that should be loaded before this plugin is loaded. The list holds the unique identifiers, following the constraints laid out in getName(), of the plugins that should be loaded before the plugin described by this plugin meta.

      The plugins referenced in the list provided by this method are not considered dependencies of this plugin and are hence not available to the plugin at runtime. They merely load before this plugin.

      Returns:
      immutable list of plugins to load before this plugin

    • getProvidedPlugins

      List<String> getProvidedPlugins()
      Returns the list of plugins/dependencies that this plugin provides. The list holds the unique identifiers, following the constraints laid out in getName(), for each plugin it provides the expected classes for.
      Returns:
      immutable list of provided plugins/dependencies
