JavaScript-Expansion is an expansion for the Spigot plugin PlaceholderAPI.

Dev builds: Build Status

Installation

  1. Download the expansion from the eCloud page.
  2. Copy the expansion to the /plugins/PlaceholderAPI/expansions/ folder.
  3. Reload PlaceholderAPI with /papi reload
  4. Download/make some scripts.
  5. Profit?

Commands

Aliases: javascriptexpansion, jsexp. Commands require the permission node placeholderapi.js.admin.

Usage (General):

  • /jsexpansion - Display expansion info.
  • /jsexpansion reload - Reloads the expansion. This command is recommended over /papi reload because it does not interfere with PlaceholderAPI or reloading other expansions.
  • /jsexpansion list - Display loaded scripts.

Usage (Debug):

  • /jsexpansion parse [me/<player_name>] [code] - Parse Javascript script locally
  • /jsexpansion loaddata [script_name] - Load all save data from file into cache
  • /jsexpansion savedata [script_name] - Save all data from cache to file

The following commands require the github_script_downloads config option be set to true in the PlaceholderAPI config:

  • /jsexpansion git list - Display the names of all available scripts from the Javascript Expansion Github.
  • /jsexpansion git info <name> - Display information on a script from our Github collection.
  • /jsexpansion git download <name> - Download a script from Github to your scripts folder.

Configuration

All JS-Expansion configurations will be placed inside your PlaceholderAPI plugin's config.yml

The configuration will look like this:

  javascript:
    debug: false
    github_script_downloads: false
    argument_split: ','
    use_quick_js: true
  • debug - Enable/Disable debug messages printed on console
  • github_script_downloads - Enable this option for downloading scripts from Github. See more
  • argument_split - Specify symbol for splitting arguments, defaulting to , if the specified splitting symbol is _. See more
  • use_quick_js - Switch to the QuickJS engine. If disabled, nashorn will be used. Careful! QuickJS breaks on some platforms!

Community Scripts

Want to try out some pre-made scripts from the community and see what the JavaScript Expansion can do? All you have to do is enable the github_script_downloads config option in the PlaceholderAPI config.yml. From there use the 'git' subcommands to check out the scripts we have available in this repo.
