Summary
Shows great Bukkit desktop notifications! Also lets plugins show their own messages if they support it. If you want a plugin to show messages on the desktop, just ask the plugin developer to implement Notifications! ;)
What does it do
- Shows notifications on the desktop (screen)
- Built-in notifications for players joining/leaving (configurable!)
- Allows plugins to show their own messages with colors (configurable!)
- You can also configure some visual options for the notifications
- It works on MAC too! :D
Configuration
The configuration has help and is very self-explanatory.
API for plugin developers
Plugins that use Notifications (and that you should check out! :D)
- MoreProtect (definitely recommended automatic anti-grief!)
- GrandExchange (recommended trading/shop)
- Bukkitmanager
- Report player
- AuthMe
- SignShop
- ChestShop
Submit suggestions and bugs here!!
If people can donate to your server, please support :)
Metrics
This plugin uses MCStats to collect information about plugin usage. Of course, this is strictly anonymous, and you can easily opt out via plugins/PluginMetrics/config.yml. The NSA isn't watching your server ;) You can of course see for yourself what data is collected on the MCStats site, just the basic stuff: how many servers, how many players, which Bukkit version, etc.
Can i use this if my server is hosted by pytohost ? or does it exactly have to be home hosted one to make this work? :E
@zergilng
Yeah that's really all ;)
Like many others have said, this would be an amazing little plugin to have if it were able to work on external servers :)
This could be a handy plugin, please make it so that you can put this on an external server.
@roelmb
Hahaha I just thought of how fun it would be if your external server host somewhere in the world suddenly got these notifications!! Hahahahahahahahahaha :D
@roelmb
Yes I am working on that, I know most systems are run externally.
@graveXrobber
True :) Maybe the future? While probably not, Mojang plans to block everything non-API...
@levisn1
Yes.
It would be nice if you could make it so you can connect to it from an little java app
As most servers are hosted external in some datacenter what makes it stupid to have the notifications over there :P
@Muizers
Ahh np, still would be nice if everyone on the server got these messages without a client side mod!
i have a newbie question...only the owner of the server can see the notifications?
@ThisUsernameIsMine
Yeah I overlooked it for some time too :P
No problem, enjoy! :)
@graveXrobber
It's not actually TagAPI making this possible! it's Mojang. They put all the things in place for the TagAPI creator to use.
It's still impossible to write code for the client as a Bukkit developer.
@Muizers
Well theres new things like tagapi etc that are making alot more possible.
@Muizers
Ohh, right... I never changed it. Thanks for the heads up (and for 1.1)! :)
@starteam @RogueCmdr
I'm working on that at the moment, but it's not easy...
@graveXrobber
Sorry, I thought everyone here knew by now that Bukkit can't address clients :(
I thought this would work for everyone not just myself, anyway for it to work that way for everyone?
how would you add notifications to your desktop if your server runs on a dedicated server?
Is there a way to have notifications on another computer too? I have my own computer, and another one that is for my server. Can I get the same notifications on my computer too?
@ThisUsernameIsMine
It simply displays the name of the server you set in server.properties! :)
And thanks a lot!
How cool is that! I like it!
+1 :)
edit: I'm seeing Unknown Server whenever someone joins/leaves.
This occurs under both local- and external ip-address @ CB 1.4.7-R1.1 #2630
