You don’t like Plugin Messaging Channels?
You want to use sockets but you think it’s too difficult for you?
This API allows developers to send data from Bungee to Spigot/Sponge and from Spigot/Sponge to Bungee.
Use Sockets (in case you haven’t understood yet)
Very easy-to-use
Call Bungee and Spigot/Sponge events
Lightweight, fast, efficient
Encrypted data transfer (RSA encryption)
You have to install and configure Socket4MC on BungeeCord and on all your Spigot/Sponge servers
BungeeCord configuration:
port: 25575
name: "MyBungee"
security-level: 1
password: "My Secret Password"
Spigot/Sponge configuration:
host: "localhost"
port: 25575
name: "MySponge" // or "Factions", "Lobby", ...
password: "My Secret Password"
host: BungeeCord’s address (e.g. mc.rhaz.fr, localhost) Set it to localhost if you don’t know what is it
port: A port used for communication (not the same as your BungeeCord port)
name: The server name (e.g. Factions, SmashBros) in lower case
security-level:
0=no security,
1=AES encryption,
2=AES encryption and RSA keys sent
password: A password used to prevent third party connections
----------------- on Sponge -------------------
// Send a message "Ping!" to BungeeCord over channel "MyChannel"
public void sendPing()
JSONMap map = new JSONMap(
"message", "Ping!"
);
Socket4Sponge.getClient().write("MyChannel", map);
}
// Send it when it is connected
@Listener
public void onHandshake(ClientSocketHandshakeEvent e){
sendPing();
}
------------------- on BungeeCord -------------------
@Override
public void onEnable() {
getProxy().getPluginManager().registerListener(this, this);
}
// Receive a message "Ping!" from Spigot and send "Pong!"
@EventHandler
public void onSocketMessage(ServerSocketJSONEvent e){
String channel = e.getChannel(); // The channel name
if(!channel.equals("MyChannel")) return;
String name = e.getName(); // The name of the server
String message = e.getExtraString("message");
getLogger().info("Received message from " + name + ": " + message);
if(message.equals("Ping!")){
e.write("message", "Pong!"); // Quick reply to this channel
}
}
