ChestShop (iConomyChestShop)
Acrobot released his first Android game, would you mind giving it a go?
ChestShop
A simple, yet very powerful system for making physical shops using signs and chests.
It's never been that easy to create shops! With features like shop protection and anti-lag protection, you won't have to worry about your server's economy anymore!
"Just works"! ChestShop supports almost all economy plugins by using Vault!
(Versions above 3.9.2 also support economy plugins using the Reserve API)
Some known compatible and incompatible economy plugins.
Please check if there are newer development builds before reporting issues!
If you are upgrading from a previous version of ChestShop please make sure to always read the warnings in the file's changelog!
The plugin by default submits anonymous stats about your server (player count, plugin/server version and type) to a public statistics websites (mcstats.org and bstats.org) in order to provide the developers with usage information. If you wish to opt out, you can do so in the PluginMetrics/config.yml and bstats/config.yml files. It also features an auto-update feature, which can be turned off in the config.

How to create a shop
Player shop
Place a chest on the ground | |
Place a sign 1 block away from the chest (for example, above it) | |
On the sign, write: | |
Leave the first line empty. It will be automatically filled with your name by the plugin (if you have the permission ChestShop.admin then you can create shops with the names of other players) | |
Second line is the amount of items to buy or sell | |
Third line is a combination of buy and sell prices. You need to have a price indicator (like 'B' - price that will apply to items BOUGHT by PLAYERS - or 'S' - the SELL price) near the price - the prices are separated by a colon (:) |
Some of the possible price combinations: "B 5:5 S", "B 5", "S free" |
The forth line will hold the id/name of the item. Write ? on the sign and the item will be autofilled with the one from the chest or you can click on the sign with the item afterwards. Optionally you can put the actual name on it. You can find out the name of the item you're holding by doing /iteminfo |
|
Resulting Shop | |
A person can buy 64 diamonds for 10 dollars and sell them back for 5 dollars from Phoenix616 |
If you want you can also take a look at this video tutorial.
Admin Shop - shop with unlimited items
Firstly, you've got to be sure that you've the ChestShop.admin permission or that you are an OP. To make an Admin Shop, simply put "Admin Shop" (configurable in config.yml) on the first line of the sign when creating the shop. Admin Shops do not require a chest!

@feca1997 What do you mean that it isn't compatible? I am not doing anything that Mineshafter could be incompatible with, it's probably Bukkit.
I can't use this plugin. it writes: UNEXPECTED REQUEST TYPE: POST. ( I use mineshafter-serverproxy and Craftbukkit 1.1-R3) maybe the problem is that its for 1.1-R1
@pichubolt090 Sorry, not yet :/ When I created CS3, it was hardcoded, and it's hard to change this now. I'll try having it in CS4.
@clownfish8 For me, iConomy 5 works fine with CB 1.1-R3, same with ChestShop :)
For BOSEconomy -> I honestly don't know. iConomy isn't updated anymore, BOSEconomy is.
Would it be possible to change the way the shop signs are made, as in the text on the sign, using regular expressions? I'm getting a little tired of having to explain the sign's working to every single player. Thanks!
@Acrobot - tyvm for this plugin. My server players have enjoyed it for a long time. Keep up the great work!
@Acrobot or fellow server owners - I see that v3.34 is CB 1.1-R3 friendly, but what 'economy plugin is working the best with CB 1.1-R3 & v3.34 ChestShop?
I'm using 'iconomy' on a CB v1.0.1-R1 server now. When I update to CB v1.1-R3 will Chestshop v3.34 work with latest iconomy (or has iconomy failed)? I have backups, but before I put lots of time into updating can anyone who has tried this tell me what is expected?
Lastly is BOSEeconomy more stable and more updated than iconomy now?
@Jenssss91 Hmm, no clue, maybe it's too big for an integer, try doing just 2000000000
@iffa2 not rly :D :D :D
yes thats perfect! but at the moment he resets my stats :/
i restarted my server but after a view updates he resets the statspage.
configpart:
RECORD_TIME_TO_LIVE: 2147483647
this should be longer :D running since 6 hours now. update every minute. :/ http://www.minebench.de/chestshop.html
@Jenssss91
2 147 483 647 seconds = 596 523.235 hours
596 523.235 hours = 24 855.1348 days
24 855.1348 days = 68.0511039 years
enough?
@iffa2 I don't think, it would mean a re-write. I am doing (or were), until Bukkit started changing the event system and everything, so I need to re-write it again.
@Jenssss91 Max integer value is: 2,147,483,647 So I guess you can use that :)
@Acrobot
Are you going to change this any time soon tho?
would it be possible to set the lifetime of the "RECORD_TIME_TO_LIVE" so infinite?
i would like to store my stats over month. and not seconds :)
@iffa2 Yeah, but not really possible with my code. At the moment, it doesn't "pick up" a stack and "put" it in the inventory - it makes new ones, and it's only possible to sell one type of item that way :/
@INSAN3CLANFTW Hmm, go to bukkit.yml, change spawn-radius to 0.
@TnTBass Yeah, I'd really like to do that - but when I coded ChestShop 3, I wasn't good at Java, and now that would mean almost re-coding of the plugin.
I'll try to add that in ChestShop 4, when it's done.
For the .jar download -> sure, I'll make another download - one for sample files and one for .jar
Is there a way to make a "Grab Bag" ChestShop?
I often get a bunch of... "stuff" collected. I'd like to sell it off, but really don't want to make a shop for each item. It would be cool to have the ability to create a shop, that for a set price randomly gives out items in the chest.
So I could create a shop that may give out mostly stacks of cobblestone, but also have an enchanted diamond pickaxe in it. The result being you may spend a fortune to get only cobblestone, but you also may get a cool item.
I'd use this to dump string, arrows, bones, spider eyes, cobblestone, doors, chests, etc in it. I often pick up these items and rather than just storing (or, well, actually crafting with them) I'd like to sell them off.
Also, is there a way to get a .jar only download? Once we have those sample files it makes it much easier to just replace the .jar. Perhaps you could release .jar only versions on the version upgrades that don't require new sample files, in addition to your existing .zip files?
@Acrobot
no I'm not getting any errors so what now?
@Acrobot
Very possible I say, since you can easily get the enchantments of an ItemStack and set them. Lazyness :D
@UnitedFactions Hmm, well, I can make a special toggle for you.
Dear Chestshop,
I have something to ask,
Would it be possible to make chestshops, and make them protected against opening by anyone, but able to blow up with TNT? that would be awesome
hope to hear from you greetings
@iffa2
disable sign protection in essentials config
@iffa2 Yeah, but this is impossible atm :/
@INSAN3CLANFTW Are you getting any errors?
