SkinsRestorer API

To make things easy, we created an example plugin that connects to the coding API that can be found here: [link (opens in a new tab)]

When using BungeeCord/Velocity?

If you are using BungeeCord/Velocity, you must have a plugin that calls to the API on BungeeCord/Velocity. You would need to use in/out put channels to send this information across both of your custom plugins.

Getting issues?

• Make sure to import the net.skinsrestorer.api.SkinsRestorerAPI & net.skinsrestorer.api.PlayerWrapper in your code (see example code)
• Make sure to get the API using skinsRestorerAPI = SkinsRestorerAPI.getApi() and define by adding private SkinsRestorerAPI skinsRestorerAPI; at the start of your class.
• If you don't know that the issue is causing, include a try catch, so you can print our exceptions using e.print... etc

Using Plugin Message Channel

If you are using BungeeCord/Velocity, and you want your plugin to work from spigot. You could use Plugin Message Channel (opens in a new tab) to send the commands to bungee cord.

Messages list

sr:message is only to "forward" commands from spigot to bungee. This includes cooldown, permissions checks and always send feedback to player. If you want to run it as a console (without checks), you will have to wait for sr:adminchannel

To proxy:

To bukkit:

Sending a message

First, you need to register the channel (on startup)

Bukkit.getMessenger().registerOutgoingPluginChannel(this, "sr:messagechannel");

Example of how we send /skin set <player> <skin> over a plugin message channel:

try {
  ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
  DataOutputStream out = new DataOutputStream(bytes);
 
  out.writeUTF("setSkin");
  out.writeUTF(p.getName());
  out.writeUTF(skin);
 
  p.sendPluginMessage(this, "sr:messagechannel", bytes.toByteArray());
} catch (IOException e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
}
