  • Method Details

    • configuration

      @NotNull public FileConfiguration configuration()
      Description copied from class: ConfigurationOptions
      Returns the Configuration that this object is responsible for.
      Overrides:
      configuration in class MemoryConfigurationOptions
      Returns:
      Parent configuration
    • copyDefaults

      @NotNull public FileConfigurationOptions copyDefaults(boolean value)
      Description copied from class: ConfigurationOptions
      Sets if the Configuration should copy values from its default Configuration directly.

      If this is true, all values in the default Configuration will be directly copied, making it impossible to distinguish between values that were set and values that are provided by default. As a result, ConfigurationSection.contains(java.lang.String) will always return the same value as ConfigurationSection.isSet(java.lang.String). The default value is false.

      Overrides:
      copyDefaults in class MemoryConfigurationOptions
      Parameters:
      value - Whether or not defaults are directly copied
      Returns:
      This object, for chaining
    • pathSeparator

      @NotNull public FileConfigurationOptions pathSeparator(char value)
      Description copied from class: ConfigurationOptions
      Sets the char that will be used to separate ConfigurationSections

      This value does not affect how the Configuration is stored, only in how you access the data. The default value is '.'.

      Overrides:
      pathSeparator in class MemoryConfigurationOptions
      Parameters:
      value - Path separator
      Returns:
      This object, for chaining
    • header

      @Nullable public String header()
      Gets the header that will be applied to the top of the saved output.

      This header will be commented out and applied directly at the top of the generated output of the FileConfiguration. It is not required to include a newline at the end of the header as it will automatically be applied, but you may include one if you wish for extra spacing.

      Null is a valid value which will indicate that no header is to be applied. The default value is null.

      Returns:
      Header
    • header

      Sets the header that will be applied to the top of the saved output.

      This header will be commented out and applied directly at the top of the generated output of the FileConfiguration. It is not required to include a newline at the end of the header as it will automatically be applied, but you may include one if you wish for extra spacing.

      Null is a valid value which will indicate that no header is to be applied.

      Parameters:
      value - New header
      Returns:
      This object, for chaining
    • copyHeader

      public boolean copyHeader()
      Gets whether or not the header should be copied from a default source.

      If this is true, if a default FileConfiguration is passed to MemoryConfiguration.setDefaults(org.bukkit.configuration.Configuration) then upon saving it will use the header from that config, instead of the one provided here.

      If no default is set on the configuration, or the default is not of type FileConfiguration, or that config has no header (header() returns null) then the header specified in this configuration will be used.

      Defaults to true.

      Returns:
      Whether or not to copy the header
    • copyHeader

      @NotNull public FileConfigurationOptions copyHeader(boolean value)
      Sets whether or not the header should be copied from a default source.

      If this is true, if a default FileConfiguration is passed to MemoryConfiguration.setDefaults(org.bukkit.configuration.Configuration) then upon saving it will use the header from that config, instead of the one provided here.

      If no default is set on the configuration, or the default is not of type FileConfiguration, or that config has no header (header() returns null) then the header specified in this configuration will be used.

      Defaults to true.

      Parameters:
      value - Whether or not to copy the header
      Returns:
      This object, for chaining
