TitleManager adds floating messages and a header/footer for your tabmenu. TitleManager also provides you with a rich API, that you can use in your plugins.
To use TitleManager within your plugin, make sure to have done the following. First add TitleManager-X.X.X.jar to your build path. Then, add TitleManager as a dependency to your plugin.yml file:
depend: [TitleManager]Alternatively, you can add as a soft dependency softdepend: [TitleManager] if you can live without it.
Another alternative would be to check for the plugin within onEnable() inside of your Main class:
@Override
public void onEnable() {
if (getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("TitleManager") != null && getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("TitleManager").isEnabled())
getLogger().info("Successfully hooked into TitleManager!");
else {
getLogger().warning("Failed to hook into TitleManager, disabling plugin!");
getPluginLoader().disablePlugin(this);
}
}Now you should be good to go and ready to use the API inside of your plugins!
TitleManager provides you with three objects, one being TitleObject.java which controls everything to do with the floating messages on your screen, and the second being TabTitleObject.java which controls everything to do with the header and footer on the Tabmenu (aka the playerlist) and last but not least ActionbarTitleObject.java which controls everything to do with Actionbar titles, like sending an actionbar title.
