Server Menu Management

Try /itemmenu edit <menu-file-name> in game!

With the help of Contributor kcaps, I find the other use of this plugin as a GUI command runner for non-coders and introduced the server menu management feature. Now, non-coders can create menus with a text editor or with a friendly UI in game, and menu options can have commands bind to them. All menus created this way will be stored as menu files. A menu file is an YAML file(<menu-file-name>.yml) stored in the menus folder under the plugin's data folder and it's name(without the .yml) will be used by commands.

Menu File

A menu file is an YAML text file(<menu-file-name>.yml). Like the following:

options:
  #Option 1
    #Name of the option

    #The lore of the option If you don't need it, don't have it
    lore:
      - "lore 1"
      - "lore 2"
      - "lore 3"
    #If the option is selectable
    selectable: true
    #The id of  the material
    material: 25
    #The amount of the item
    amount: 10
    #The damage of the item, don't add this unless you have a clear idea what you're doing
    damage: 0
    #The data of the item, don't add this unless you have a clear idea what you're doing
    data: 0
    #The X position of the option(0~8)
    posX: 0
    #The Y position of the option(0~5)
    posY: 0
    #The command to be executed when the option is clicked(no "/")
    command: "me sent a menu to <target>"
    #The executor of the command above.
    #Can be:
    #  <sender>  The one who sent the menu
    #  <target>  The target of the menu(the one who views)
    #  CONSOLE   console
    #  name      The player name you want the command to be executed by.
    commandby: <sender>
  #Option 2
  - name: "name 2"
    selectable: true
    material: 15
    posX: 1
    posY: 0
    command: "me clicked <name>"
    commandby: <target>
  #Add more options here
#If the menu can be closed normally.
canclose: true
#The command to be executed when the menu is closed(without any option selected)
#This command is executed by the console
onclose: "say <title> closed"

The commands in the menu file can have symbols to be replaced when used:

• <title>: The title of the menu
• <sender>: The name of the sender(The one issued command /menu open)
• <sender-as-op>: Use this only in commandby This means the command will be executed by the sender as an op
• <target>: The name of the target(The one viewing the menu)
• <target-as-op>: Use this only in commandby This means the command will be executed by the target as an op
• <name>: The name of the option which this command belongs
