Solved Making / Using Alternate Files?

So what is the actual question?

 

You literally call File::createNewFile(), any hit on Google would've told you that (by searching something like "java create file")

 

*sigh* Nothing to do with the spigot API (besides the YamlConfiguration class included in it), and everything to do with Java itself.
http://lmgtfy.com/?iie=1&q=How+to+create+a+file+in+a+directory+in+java?

 

You basically use Java itself to create a new file, then turn it into a yaml configuration file.

Code (Text):

// To load it:
File newFile = new File(this.dataFolder(),"locations.yml");
FileConfiguration secondConfig = Yaml configuration.loadConfigurationFile(newFile);
// Now you can do whatever with it like a normal config
// And to save:
secondConfig.save(newFile);

 

oh watch out, he'll come back and complain over the fact that it wont work

 

Auto correct messed me up. Im writing this from my phone so plz don't sue me
(It's meant to be "YamlConfiguration")

 

Code (Text):

    public static FileConfiguration data;
    public File datafile;

    public void setup() {
        if (!plugin.getDataFolder().exists()) {
            plugin.getDataFolder().mkdir();
        }

        datafile = new File(plugin.getDataFolder(), "data.yml");

        if (!datafile.exists()) {
            try {
                datafile.createNewFile();
                Core.plugin.saveResource("data.yml", false);
            }catch (IOException e) {
                Bukkit.getServer().getLogger().severe(ChatColor.RED + "Could not create data.yml");
            }
        }
        data = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(datafile);
    }

    public void reloadData() {
        data = YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(datafile);
    }

 

Why spoonfeed? You know he/she won't learn anything from that.
