plugin execute specific command

I would like to change a command so that when executing the action instead of changing the game mode, the plugin executes a specific command, can anyone help me?


if($next == 'creative'){
$gameMode = Server::getGamemodeFromString($next);
if($gameMode != -1){
$player->setGamemode($gameMode);
} else {
if($this->main->cfg->get('debug') == true){
$this->main->getLogger()->warning('Invalid game mode ('.$next.') set in config.yml');
}
}
}
if($next == 'fly'){
$player->setAllowFlight(true);

 

You would remove the part that sets the gamemode, and instead use

PHP:

 $this->main->getServer()->dispatchCommand(new ConsoleCommandSender(), "command"); 

If you want the command to be run as the player, replace "new ConsoleCommandSender()" with $player. Otherwise, it will be run through the console. You can replace "command" with any command you want, although it doesn't need a / like if you were running the command in-game. For example, if you want to give Steve a cookie, you could replace "command" with "give Steve cookie 1".

 

@corytortoise Does main have to be the name of the php file?

 

Main could be any object that has a getServer method, but in this case it's most likely a PluginBase. If you use this in your main file (the one extending PluginBase), you can leave out the main-> part and use $this->getServer() directly.
I'd recommend to learn the concept of object oriented programming.

 

@HimbeersaftLP I was just asking because i already Knew the other way thats why i was confused why there was the main-> because i was trying to figure out why you would need that

 

That's just the name OP used instead of plugin, which most people use.

 

ohhhhh ok
