Now I've added it into the plugin.yml like this Code (Text): name: testProtocol version: ${project.version} main: me.hishe.testProtocol api-version: 1.13 authors: [Hishe] description: Test depend: [ProtocolLib] And have added it to the build path, but I'm really confused about what to do with this? Code (Text): <repositories> <repository> <id>dmulloy2-repo</id> <url>https://repo.dmulloy2.net/nexus/repository/public/</url> </repository> ... </repositories> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.comphenix.protocol</groupId> <artifactId>ProtocolLib</artifactId> <version>4.5.0</version> </dependency> </dependencies> I can't figure what to do with it, and without it I will get this error(in intellij) when I write something in the code that uses ProtocolLib. Code (Text): package com.comphenix.protocol does not exist Any help is appreciated
The dependency in the plugin.yml is only for the server to know that your plugin requires ProtocolLib and if ProtocolLib does not exist it doesn’t load the plugin. But to use ProtocolLib in your code you have to do more. You can either add ProtocolLib as jar as local library or add it as repository and dependency to your pom.xml (if you are using maven). That’s what the code snippets you showed are for. Are you using maven?
Yes, I am using maven, also protocol is in the plugins folder Can you also explain how to add it as a repository to the pom? (As stated at the end of your reply) I'm not sure how to add it as a repository can you please explain how?
If you also use maven to add a spigot version to your code then this should not be a big mystery. Well the snippet showed it already. I think you should have these two sections in your pom (for me they get auto generated) Code (Text): <repositories> ... </repositories> <dependencies> ... </dependencies> And between these tags or how you call them you have to insert the repository and the dependency part of ProtocolLib. In the end it should look like the snippet of pom you posted. Additionally I would add Code (Text): <scope>provided</scope> to the <dependency> part because ProtocolLib will be provided by the server for your plugin.
It can't find the dependency? Code (Text): Dependency 'com.comphenix.protocol:ProtocolLib:4.5.0' not found Nevermind that problem was fixed now it can't find bukkit??? Code (Text): package org.bukkit does not exist
