CommandAPI

About: This is a CommandAPI that I developed so that I can avoid having to statically register any command whether using reflection and a CommandExecutor, or simply putting the commands into my plugin.yml. This is a purely annotation based API. The functionality to statically add commands is there, I just have not implemented any ways that are easy for a user to do so.

How to use: Using this CommandAPI is super simple, and only requires 3 lines to register the commands, and obviously the commands themselves.

First in either your onEnable() or onLoad() you're going to want to do this:

CommandManagercommandManager = newCommandManager(this); //this == plugin instancecommandManager.registerCommands(); //registers commands from anywhere in the plugin jarcommandManager.registerHelp(); //registers a generated helptopic to bukkit//so the /help PluginName displays our plugin's registered commands

Example commands to be registered: Here are some test commands to display how commands should be written to allow registration. CommandListener is a required interface for any class you wish commands to be registered from. This is to allow shrinkage of classes searched for commands, and increase registration time.

publicclassTestCommandimplementsCommandListener//CommandListener is required
{
/* command is the only required field for the annotation The base command is not required. If not created, a default one will be generated and will direct to the usage upon command use */@CommandHandler(command = "test")
publicstaticvoidtestingCommand(CommandInfoinfo)
{
info.getSender().sendMessage("Test worked");
}
/* Sub commands can go as deep as you wish ie. test -> sub1 -> ... -> sub15 */@CommandHandler(command = "test.test2", permission = "test.test2", noPermission = "LOL no permissions",
aliases = {"2", "testing"}, usage = "/test test2 <player>",
description = "Testing out all of the CommandHandler's attribute values")
publicvoidtestingCommand2(CommandInfoinfo)
{
info.getSender().sendMessage("Test2 worked");
}
}

ChangeLog: 1.2: Added Maven Support 1.1: Updated recursion to fix bug with sub commands below sub-2. Now properly displays help when displaying usage for sub commands Generates empty(default) sub commands if you don't create an annotation for them. 1.0: Initial release.

Source Code: Finally the source code is on github. Its opensource and GPLv2 license. https://github.com/Not2EXceL/CommandAPI Duh its here XD
