Introduction
OneUUID is a cutting-edge open-source plugin extension/library that revolutionizes UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) management for software applications and plugins. With an unwavering focus on efficiency and precision, OneUUID offers developers a seamless solution to prevent instance reference confusion, ensuring every instance receives a unique and unequivocal identifier in the Java memory.
By automatically handling UUIDs, OneUUID mitigates conflicts and data corruption, optimizing data integrity and facilitating consistent performance.Moreover, OneUUID boasts an ingenious integration feature, enabling developers to effortlessly link their projects with popular platforms like Discord through its Forums' Linking system. This dynamic integration opens up new possibilities for data synchronization and enhanced communication, fostering a more immersive and interactive experience within the project's community.
At the heart of our open-source ethos, OneUUID welcomes contributions and collaboration from developers worldwide. Our community-driven approach ensures that OneUUID continues to evolve and adapt, becoming an essential tool for those seeking smooth UUID management and enhanced integration linking. Whether you're building a Java plugin or a complex software application, OneUUID empowers you to streamline UUID handling, optimize efficiency.
Getting Started
Downloading
By following these simple steps, you can download the OneUUID JAR from the GitHub Releases section and take advantage of its advanced UUID-related functionalities. To get started, head to the homepage of the OneUUID GitHub repository. As you're already on the homepage, you can find the "Releases" tab right at the top of the page. Click on this tab to access all available releases for the OneUUID library.
In the "Releases" section, you'll find a comprehensive list of different versions of OneUUID. Each release represents a stable version of the JAR, featuring improvements, bug fixes, and new features. Take your time to review the release notes and descriptions to identify the version that aligns with your requirements and setup. Selecting the appropriate release will ensure the best compatibility and optimal performance for your server network.
Once you have chosen the desired release version of OneUUID, look for the downloadable JAR file associated with that specific release. Usually, the JAR file follows a naming convention like "OneUUID-1.0.0.jar," where "1.0.0" represents the version number. Click on the link for the JAR file to initiate the download process.
After the download is complete, double-check that the JAR file is properly stored in a location accessible by your Java editor. Congratulations! You have successfully downloaded the OneUUID JAR! This powerful library is now at your disposal, ready to elevate your Minecraft server network with advanced UUID-related functionalities.
Use OneUUID
public class SimpleExample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Create a sample UUID string.
String uuidString = "a190fd62-60bd-4b7c-a60b-5d41b62fe5e6";
// Create a OneUUID object from the UUID string using OneUUID.fromString().
OneUUID oneUUID = OneUUID.fromString(uuidString);
// Display the original UUID string and the generated OneUUID object.
System.out.println("Original UUID String: " + uuidString);
System.out.println("Generated OneUUID instance: " + oneUUID);
}
}Complex Usage
For example, let's say you had a class named PlayerData with whatever information you're trying to hold on to. (Using a OneUUID of course!) It could look something like this... (most importantly, it should have a uuid field! You can get away without, but it can help you later.)
public class PlayerData {
private OneUUID uuid;
private int money;
// Add other relevant fields and methods as needed
public PlayerData(OneUUID uuid, int money) {
this.uuid = uuid;
this.money = money;
}
public void getMoney() {
return money;
}
public void setMoney(int to) {
money = to;
}
public void addMoney(int add) {
setMoney(getMoney() + add);
}
// Add getters and setters for uuid and other fields.
}With this guide, you can efficiently manage player data in your Minecraft plugin by utilizing a HashMap setup with OneUUID and PlayerData. The unique identifiers provided by OneUUID ensure data consistency and smooth functionality within your plugin, even when players change their in-game names and Java messing up between classes and their runtimes.
Within your Minecraft plugin (or other Java application), create a HashMap to store player data with OneUUID as keys and PlayerData objects as values. This association will enable efficient retrieval and management of player data using their unique identifiers.
public class Economy extends CommandExecutor {
// Create the HashMap with OneUUIDs as the key.
private HashMap<OneUUID, PlayerData> players = new HashMap<>();
// Make a method to create or fetch player data.
public PlayerData getPlayer(OneUUID uuid) {
if(!players.containsKey(uuid)) {
PlayerData gen = new PlayerData(uuid, 100);
players.put(uuid, gen);
return gen;
} else {
return players.get(uuid);
}
}
// Add a command listener... (Minecraft only!)
@EventListener
public void onCommand(CommandSender sender, Command command, String label, String[] args) {
if(!sender typeof Player) return true;
OneUUID uuid = OneUUID.fromString(((Player) sender).getUniqueId());
PlayerData player = getPlayer(uuid);
sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.YELLOW + "Balance: $" + player.getMoney());
return false;
}
// You can add other methods to interact with player data in the HashMap...

Configure Extensions
With the SB4D Program, converting your existing JavaPlugin instance (your plugin's main class) into JavaPluginExtended is a straightforward process. By following these simple steps, you can unlock the full potential of SB4D in a JAR server plugin. You must import and download the Extensions library from your developer portal. This setup library is also open source.
// First import the essential class.
import com.sandbattle.extensions.JavaPluginExtended; In your existing plugin class (let's call it MyPlugin), change the class declaration to extend JavaPluginExtended instead of JavaPlugin. This is just an example setup, and you should feel free to modify anything to make your plugin work best! Some third-party modifications may not accept a JavaPluginExtended in their constructor, and asseting that this is still a JavaPlugin.
// Now, change JavaPlugin to JavaPluginExtended.
public class MyPlugin extends JavaPluginExtended {
public void onEnable() {}
}Lastly, import your favorite extensions in your onEnable() function. This step will depend on what library you are using from us or other supported third-party providers. In this example, we are importing the TextSpace Translator plugin. For reference, this plugin uses plugin message channel for cache data transfer between nodes.
// Add the translation extension to the instance.
public void onEnable() {
TranslationExtension ext = new TranslationExtension(this);
this.addExtension(ext);
// more code ...
