PluginTask

Hi all. I wonder how it is possible to obtain the number of the traversed time PluginTask, that is, from the beginning to the end and bring this time?

 

Since you haven't provided a unit time, I'll be ignoring unit time too.

Method 1 of ∞:

PHP:

class A extends PluginTask {

    private $firstTick;

    public function onRun(int $tick){
        if($this->firstTick === null){
            $this->firstTick = $tick;
        }
        $ticksElapsed = $tick - $this->firstTick;
    }
}


Method 2 of ∞:

PHP:

//declare global variable $initialTime
//in the constructor, set $initialTime's value to time()
//to find the time elapsed, subtract time() with $initialTime


Your question was to get the end time of the task, I am assuming you are using a no-break repeating task. In that case you can set the task to a variable before scheduling the task, and create a public variable, or a function to fetch the elapsed time.

PHP:

/** @var Plugin $plugin */
$task = new MyPluginTask($plugin);
$plugin->getServer()->getScheduler()->scheduleRepeatingTask($task, 20);

//Getting time before cancelling the task:
$time = $task->getTimeElapsed();
$plugin->getServer()->getScheduler()->cancelTask($task->getTaskId());


 

I didn't mean to say a global variable, my bad

 

thanks
