1.15.2 Use kotlinscript with DSL to create script plugin?

Hello guys recently I am thinking about using the DSL pattern of Kotlin to create readable programming but I am not sure the availability. I hope can have a discussion about this.

It's not only for creating script plugin, but also for benefiting Kotlin plugin developer to fast writing plugin.

the script extension will use .kts, and the plugin will eval all of the kts via ScriptEngineManager

create Event may look like this

Code (Kotlin):

on PlayerJoinEvent run {
   val name = "name" of player
   name eq "Abc123" then {
       stopRun
   }
 
   player msg "welcome to the server, $name !"
}

Basic looping

Code (Kotlin):

private val a = 1..10 random 2 //create iterable and get random of 2 numbers
a loop {
    val b = this > 5
    b then {
        Common println "$this is > 5"
    } elseThen {
        Common println "$this is <= 5"
    }
}

Code (Kotlin):

1..10 loop {
    Common println "No. $it"
}

or

Code (Kotlin):

1..10 loop {
    Common println "No. $this"
}

or

Code (Kotlin):

1..10 loop { num ->
    Common println "No. $num"
}

1..10 can make like "1 rangeTo 10" too

assign value will still using val

Code (Kotlin):

val a = 1 //cross kts access
private val b = 1

command

Code (Kotlin):

Register command "/hi <player>" execute {
  val name = arg get 1 or "none" //nullable handle
  sender msg "greeting to $name!"
}

create GUI

Code (Kotlin):

val inv = Create chest {
    row = 1
    title = "title"
    items {
       1 to paper
       2 to paper
     }
}

create Item

Code (Kotlin):

val paper = Create item PAPER {
   name = "test"
   lore = "one|two|three|four"
   unbreakable = true
   itemflags = "HIDE_ATTRIBUTES|HIDE_DESTROYS|HIDE_ENCHANTS"
}

array

Code (Java):

val arr = Create array {
        Add num 1
        Add double 2.2
        Add string "abc"
        Add bool  false
    }

map

Code (Kotlin):

val map = Create map {
        1 mapTo 2
        2 mapTo "abc"
        "xyz" mapTo 444
        0.0 mapTo "none"
        false mapTo "abc"
        "w" mapTo true
    }

Any ideas ? Is it only can be readable programming tools or it can also make as script plugin ?

 

It's not really skript,it's just using the magic of kotlin dsl
Actually you can do kotlin programming in kts
