Can i fire a Sponge event (not custom)?

FabioZumbi12 · January 30, 2017, 1:24pm

Hi,

I porting a chat plugin from bukkit/spigot and in this plugin i need to launch the event “MessageEvent” with my plugin, to allow other plugins to listem to messages modified by my plugin.

Is you is asking why i not listen the MessageEvent and change from that event?

Its because i allow my players to send messages using commandg like /g hello, and i want this messages (sent by commands) to be like real chat messages and pass for all plugins listem to this event like a normal message.

Is this possible? if not, can be?

There is the SpongeEventFactory:

Sponge.getEventManager().post(
    SpongeEventFactory.createMessageChannelEventChat(
        cause, 
        originalChannel, 
        channel, 
        formatter, 
        rawMessage, 
        messageCancelled
    )
);

Yes, I do it for /sudo - this is what my code looks like.

NucleusPowered/Nucleus/blob/sponge-api/5/src/main/java/io/github/nucleuspowered/nucleus/modules/admin/commands/SudoCommand.java#L74-L94


try {
    event = pl.simulateChat(rawMessage, Cause.of(NamedCause.simulated(pl), NamedCause.owner(src)));
} catch (Throwable e) { // just in case people don't update.
    event = new NucleusMessageChannelEvent(
            Cause.source(pl).named(NamedCause.notifier(src)).build(),
            pl.getMessageChannel(),
            rawMessage,
            new NucleusMessageChannelEvent.MessageFormatter(Text.builder(pl.getName())
                    .onShiftClick(TextActions.insertText(pl.getName()))
                    .onClick(TextActions.suggestCommand("/msg " + pl.getName()))
                    .build(), rawMessage)
    );
    if (!Sponge.getEventManager().post(event)) {
        pl.getMessageChannel().send(pl, Util.applyChatTemplate(event.getFormatter()));
    }
}
if (event.isCancelled()) {
    src.sendMessage(plugin.getMessageProvider().getTextMessageWithFormat("command.sudo.chatcancelled"));
    return CommandResult.empty();

Thanks for the methods and for the example

One more think: How to set the priority of a event like bukkit?

Events in Sponge don’t have priorities (I don’t think they did in Bukkit either), Instead, event handlers have priorities, which determines the order in which they receive the event.
