Variables

Variables are used to store a value and to later retrieve the stored value.

• Local Variable
  • "Local" to the plugin component (command, event listener, etc.) in which it is used
  • e.g. if you use a local variable in a command then the value will be reset each time the command runs
• Global Variable
  • Keeps it value until the server stops
  • Can be used across plugin components
• Persistent Variable
  • Same as a global variable except its value is saved across server restarts
  • Saved in "plugins/YourPlugin/data.yml"
