What is a Cloud Plugin?

What is a Cloud Plugin?

A cloud plugin expands the function of the cloud and can add new mechanisms.

Where can I get a cloud plugin from?

Cloud Plugins can be downloaded from our Plugin Center at https://plugins.cavecloud.net/. All you have to do is log in with your account, choose a plugin and click on "Download".

There you get a Cloud Command with which you can easily download and activate the plugin.

Can I make a cloud plugin myself?

Yes, and it's very simple. Plugins are programmed in Java.

Create a new Java project in your pre-built IDE and add the Cloud.jar as library. Now you can access all functions of the CloudAPI.

You can find all further information here: CloudAPI

Set Server Data

Tip: Use this, to set the Sign Data. More Information: Change text on Server Signs

Server self = SpigotApi.getSelfServer();
self.getServerData()
    .setPlayers(Bukkit.getOnlinePlayers().size())
    .setGameState(SpigotApi.getGamestate(this.gamestate))
    .setMaxplayers(this.maxPlayers)
   .setMotd(motd);

SpigotApi.updateSelfServerData();

Send custom data to the cloud

If you want to send data to the cloud, you can use this code. For the cloud to do something, you need to develop a plugin for the cloud that has a registered listener.

PacketDataConstructor packetDataConstructor = new PacketDataConstructor();
packetDataConstructor.add("key", "value");

OutgoingDataPacket outgoingDataPacket = new OutgoingDataPacket(packetDataConstructor);
SpigotApi.sendMessageToCloud(outgoingDataPacket);

Events

All these events are registered as normal events (like the PlayerJoinEvent) in your spigot plugin.

To receive messages from your cloud plugin, you need to register a listener with the following event:

CloudMessageReciveEvent

To see when a server's data has changed, you can use this event:

ServerDataChangeEvent

To see when a server is offline, you can use this event:

ServerRemoveEvent

Set fallback / default server

ServerInfo serverInfo;
BungeeCordApi.setFallbackServer(serverInfo);

Send user-defined data to cloud

If you want to send data to the cloud, you can use this code. For the cloud to do something, you need to develop a plugin for the cloud that has a registered listener.

PacketDataConstructor packetDataConstructor = new PacketDataConstructor();
packetDataConstructor.add("key", "value");

OutgoingDataPacket outgoingDataPacket = new OutgoingDataPacket(packetDataConstructor);
SpigotApi.sendMessageToCloud(outgoingDataPacket);

Events

All these events are registered as normal events (like the PlayerJoinEvent) in your spigot plugin.

To receive messages from your cloud plugin, you must register a listener with the following event:

BungeecordMessageReciveEvent

To see when a server's data was changed, you can use this event:
