Serene

Serene is a simple and easy to use utility library for Minecraft Paper plugins. It is designed to make plugin development easier and more efficient by providing a set of tools and utilities that can be used to simplify common tasks and reduce boilerplate and messy code.

Installation

Serene is available on JitPack, so you can easily add it to your project by adding the following repository to your pom.xml file:

<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>jitpack.io</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>

And then add the following dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.github.ethan-davies</groupId>
  <artifactId>Serene</artifactId>
  <version>1.1.3</version>
</dependency>

Lastly, using the maven-shade plugin is recommended to shade the Serene dependency into your plugin jar. So add the following to your pom.xml file:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.6.0</version>
    <configuration>
        <relocations>
            <relocation>
                <pattern>dev.ethann.serene</pattern>
                <shadedPattern>*your package*.libs.serene</shadedPattern>
            </relocation>
        </relocations>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>package</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>shade</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

Usage

Serene can easily be initialised by having your onEnable method look something like this:

import dev.ethann.serene.Serene;

@Override
public void onEnable() {
    Serene.init(this);
}
