Making config.yml

I am trying to make a messages.yml where people can edit the message

PHP:

<?php

namespace Kaz;

use pocketmine\plugin\PluginBase;
use pocketmine\event\Listener;
use pocketmine\event\player\PlayerJoinEvent;
use pocketmine\Player;
use pocketmine\Server;
use pocketmine\utils\TextFormat as O;
use pocketmine\utils\Config;

class Main extends PluginBase implements Listener{

  public function onEnable(){

    @mkdir($this->getDataFolder());
         $this->saveResource("config.yml");
         $this->config= new Config($this->getDataFolder() . "config.yml",
Config::YAML);
 $this->getServer()->getPluginManager()->registerEvents($this, $this);
}
  public function onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent $event){

    $player = $event->getPlayer();
    $name = $event->getPlayer()->getName();

    $player->sendMessage($this->getConfig()->get("join-message"));
  }
}


I made a resources folder with config.yml which looks like this

PHP:

join-message: test

they didn't work.. sorry I'm new to making configs..

 

try this

PHP:

<?php

namespace Kaz;

use pocketmine\plugin\PluginBase;
use pocketmine\event\Listener;
use pocketmine\event\player\PlayerJoinEvent;
use pocketmine\Player;
use pocketmine\Server;
use pocketmine\utils\TextFormat as O;
use pocketmine\utils\Config;

class Main extends PluginBase implements Listener{

  public function onEnable(){
      
      $this->saveDefaultConfig();
      $this->getServer()->getPluginManager()->registerEvents($this, $this);
  }
 
  public function onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent $event){
      
      $player = $event->getPlayer();
      $name = $event->getPlayer()->getName();
      $player->sendMessage($this->getConfig()->get("join-message"));
  }
}

and for your config

PHP:

join-message: "message"

 

You can load a config in 2 ways. One by calling it under a Config class onEnable() and another one is $this->saveDefaultConfig() ; which you pre-make a config and then you call it.

After having a look at your config which you made earlier.

Code:

 
join-message: "" 

That's "" means it is a string, if it's not placed nothing will work and you'll have errors. It's a good practice to add a "" on strings.

 

error

Code:

[01:25:08] [Server thread/CRITICAL]: Could not pass event 'pocketmine\event\player\PlayerJoinEvent' to 'Kaz v1.0.0': yaml_parse(): end of stream reached without finding document 0 on Kaz\Main
[01:25:08] [Server thread/CRITICAL]: ErrorException: "yaml_parse(): end of stream reached without finding document 0" (EXCEPTION) in "/src/pocketmine/utils/Config" at line 145

 

Bro, make sure your config.yml is like this:

Code:

 
---
join-message: "" 
... 

 

it worked ;O!!

what if you want to name config.yml to a different one like message.yml?

 

If I'm not mistaken, it should be

onEnable()

PHP:

$this->saveResource("messages.yml");


And then call it back.

Refer here: (another method)
https://github.com/InspectorGadget/RightSideHUD/blob/master/src/RTG/RightSideHUD/Loader.php#L48

 

use:
@mkdir($this->getDataFolder());
$this->saveDefaultConfig();
$this->getResource("config.yml");

and when uses the config yml message:

$player->sendMessage($this->getConfig()->get("join-message"));
