• Small bug fix for cube, line_x, line_y and line_z

Spigot Plugin (2022-09-18)

Spigot plugin release, place in plugins directory. Tested with spigot-1.19.2.

This release fixes a bug where custom commands do no longer work. Going through the Spigot source code, this seems to be due to Minecraft client changes in 1.19.2. To resolve this, we follow a similar strategy as in https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/customcommands-new-1-19-tab-completion-in-game-configs-edition.14363/ by using a PlayerCommandPreprocessEvent listener, which just calls dispatch itself on the command map if the incoming command has a minecraftpyserver: prefix.

Spigot Plugin (2022-05-19)

Spigot plugin release, place in plugins directory. Tested with spigot-1.18.2 and paper-1.18.2-335.

Spigot has changed the way how they handle libraries (more in line with Paper).

We hence need to construct a separate class loader for Jython with all the libraries found in bundler/libraries/ or libraries/ added, as well as lib-custom/. The plugin class loader is set as the parent. This allows mcapi to correctly find PLUGIN and to use custom libraries which themselves use the Bukkit API.

However, this breaks use cases where the system class loader is used, e.g. with Class.forName or JDBC drivers (which need to be loaded by the sys class loader). In such cases, the libraries should be added to lib-common for now (which is loaded in by the plugin library loader, which we instantiate with a new URLClassLoader which has the current context classloader as the parent).

Note: one might wonder why we don't add everything to this library loader instead and also use that as the Jython classloader. Sadly, this leads to SERVER = Bukkit.getServer() not working anymore (since Bukkit is now provided by the library loader and overrides the context loader but did not get a setServer set).

We could try to workaround this by calling setServer ourselves.

Spigot Plugin (2022-05-17)

Spigot plugin release, place in plugins directory. Tested with spigot-1.18.2 and paper-1.18.2-335.

• Spigot has changed the way how they handle libraries (more in line with Paper), so the plugin now tries to add the libraries found in bundler/libraries/ or libraries/ to the classpath in order to pass these on to Jython.

The way how we do so now is by constructing a separate class loader for Jython with the plugin class loader as the parent, this avoids problems and makes sure that

from mcapi import *
from me.tigerhix.lib.scoreboard import ScoreboardLib
ScoreboardLib.setPluginInstance(PLUGIN)
from com.github.zandy.playerborderapi.api import PlayerBorderAPI

work correctly.

Spigot Plugin (2022-05-16)

Spigot plugin release, place in plugins directory. Tested with spigot-1.18.2 and paper-1.18.2-335.

• The plugin is now compiled with (JDK 18)
• Spigot has changed the way how they handle libraries (more in line with Paper), so the plugin now tries to add the libraries found in bundler/libraries/ or libraries/ to the classpath in order to pass these on to Jython. (Ideally, a separate class loader should be instantiated and passed on to the Jython interpreter.)

add_ondisable_handler('test', test_handler)
