Adding plugin's data to the 'plugins'-tab on Analysis and/or Inspect pages
Plan has a flexible data addition system since 3.1.0. With it you can add Averages, Totals, Percentages, Tables & Other Html elements to the Plugins tab on the Analysis and/or Inspect pages.
Basics
To add data a class that extends PluginData class is needed. One PluginData object should only contain data for one user, but tables & other elements are an exception.
Basic Example
public class StepCounterSteps extends PluginData {
private StepCounterPlugin stepCounter; // This is the example plugin where the data is taken from.
// Constructor with the plugin as parameter.
public StepCounterSteps(StepCounterPlugin stepCounter) {
// A call to super constructor: PluginName, PlaceholderName
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken");
this.stepCounter = stepCounter; // Setting the plugin
}
// Required method.
// This method is used with AnalysisType.HTML and for Inspect page's values.
// All return values should use parseContainer(String modifier, String value)-method, more on that down below.
@Override
public String getHtmlReplaceValue(String modifier, UUID uuid) {
return parseContainer(modifier, stepCounter.getSteps(uuid)+"");
}
// Required method.
// This method is used to calculate values for the Analysis page.
@Override
public Serializable getValue(UUID uuid) {
return stepCounter.getSteps(uuid);
}
}
At the moment registering this data source will have no effect. It is disregarded because of two variables inside PluginData:
- List analysisTypes
- boolean analysisOnly
analysisOnly is 'true' by default. - Thus Inspect page will ignore the data.
analysisTypes is empty. - Thus Analysis page will ignore the data.
Registering the data point
This might be the easiest step. get the API and call a single method - all done!
Plan.getPlanAPI().addPluginDataSource(new StepCounterSteps(stepCounter));
If you register multiple data sources, they will appear in the order they were registered.
Inspect Example
We can add the data to the Inspect page with super.setAnalysisOnly(false);
-call inside the constructor:
public StepCounterSteps(StepCounterPlugin stepCounter) {
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken");
super.setAnalysisOnly(false); //
this.stepCounter = stepCounter;
}
Now on the inspect page, there will be a "StepCounter" plugin box. Inside the box, however is only a single number This is because no prefix has been set.
Let's do that:
public StepCounterSteps(StepCounterPlugin stepCounter) {
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken");
super.setPrefix("Steps taken: ")
//super.setSuffix(" steps"); // You can also define the suffix
super.setAnalysisOnly(false);
this.stepCounter = stepCounter;
}
Why should parseContainer(String modifier, String value)-method be used with getHtmlReplaceValue-method?
- Automatically add wrap around the text.
- Automatically add the prefix, suffix & icon to the value.
Wait, icons?
Font Awesome Icons can be used. They are added before the prefix when parseContainer method is called.
To set the icon call super.setIcon(iconName)
in the constructor. Icon-names are visible on the linked page.
super.setIcon("wheelchair");
Analysis Example
Adding data to the Analysis page is straightforward as well. Please note that one class can add a data to both Analysis & Inspect pages.
To add data to the Analysis page, analysisTypes need to be set. This is done in the super constructor. There are three ways to set them:
List:
List<AnalysisType> types = new ArrayList<>();
types.add(AnalysisType.LONG_AVG);
types.add(AnalysisType.LONG_TOTAL);
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken", types);
Array:
AnalysisType[] types = new AnalysisType{AnalysisType.LONG_AVG, AnalysisType.LONG_TOTAL};
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken", types);
Values (1):
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken", AnalysisType.LONG_AVG);
Values (many):
super("StepCounter", "stepsTaken", AnalysisType.LONG_AVG, AnalysisType.LONG_TOTAL);
Refer to AnalysisType for what types you should add. The type depends on the return of the getValue(UUID uuid)-method you have written.
- AnalysisType
- AnalysisType Javadoc (Coming soon)
AnalysisType.HTML is for all other elements you might want to add.
Table Example
A good example is the AdvancedAchievementsTable. You can use the [Html Enum] to quickly create table html. The Html Enum has easy lines for 2, 3 & 4 line columns - More than that will most likely not fit in the box. the parse(String... p)-method takes as many strings as parameters as needed to replace all the REPLACE# placeholders on the line.
Let's deconstruct the constructor.
public AdvancedAchievementsTable(AdvancedAchievementsAPI aaAPI) {
super("AdvancedAchievements", "achievementstable", AnalysisType.HTML);
this.aaAPI = aaAPI;
String player = Html.FONT_AWESOME_ICON.parse("user") + " Player";
String achievements = Html.FONT_AWESOME_ICON.parse("check-circle-o") + " Achievements";
// analysisOnly true by default.
super.setPrefix(Html.TABLE_START_2.parse(player, achievements));
super.setSuffix(Html.TABLE_END.parse());
}
- analysisTypes is set as AnalysisType.HTML.
- prefix is set as a sortable table's start with " Player" and " Achievements" columns.
- suffix is set as the end tags for the whole table.
Now let's see how the table gets the values:
@Override
public String getHtmlReplaceValue(String modifierPrefix, UUID uuid) {
StringBuilder html = new StringBuilder();
List<OfflinePlayer> offlinePlayers = Arrays.stream(getOfflinePlayers()).filter(p -> p.hasPlayedBefore()).collect(Collectors.toList());
if (offlinePlayers.isEmpty()) {
html.append(Html.TABLELINE_2.parse("No Players.",""));
} else {
for (OfflinePlayer p : offlinePlayers) {
String inspectUrl = HtmlUtils.getInspectUrl(p.getName());
String achievements = aaAPI.getPlayerTotalAchievements(p.getUniqueId()) + "";
html.append(Html.TABLELINE_2.parse(Html.LINK.parse(inspectUrl, p.getName()), achievements));
}
}
return parseContainer("", html.toString());
}
It simply gets the Players that have played on the server. If the list is empty, a row with "No Players" is added to the value (html, StringBuilder). Otherwise it get's the Url for the Inspect page of each player, and the amount of achievements a player has. The link is parsed inside a html a-tag (with the text of the players name). Then that is parsed into a table line with the a-tag & achievements.
The parseContainer uses an empty string as modifierPrefix, because we don't want any extra text added in-front of the table.
Inspect doesn't use getValue(UUID uuid) & AnalysisType.HTML disregards it's return values, so that simply returns an empty string.
@Override
public Serializable getValue(UUID uuid) {
return "";
}
