User settings API - jan64 - 09-14-2014
I'm proposing addition of simple database api to the core / mc-server (that'd be a better idea but, I most likely won't have time to do it):
GetUserSetting(username, settingname)
SetUserSetting(username, settingname, value)
And, possibly support for sqlite transactions
StartSettingsTransaction()
EndSettingsTransaction()
The table structure would be simple: UserName SettingName Value
It'd solve persistent storage of things like god-mode, money, or any other player-related value in a simple way.
Ps. Do we want /mail in Core?
RE: User settings API - Howaner - 09-14-2014
Please, no /mail command in the core plugin.
I hate this function.
What datatype should GetUserSetting return?
And data save with the player name is a very bad idea. We should save the uuid from the player
RE: User settings API - jan64 - 09-14-2014
Storing uuid's instead of names is a good idea, but the API user decides what to put there.
It'd be string (TEXT in the database) due to its relative versatility.
