Introduction

Welcome to my first Plugin, Skype in a Bukkit. It allows your Server to access a Skype Client running on the Server and use the client to send Chatmessages to all contacts and groups.

Important

This Plugin uses mcstats.org Plugin Metrics. You have been warned. It will collect the following Data:

Java Version
Operating System
Authentification Mode
Plugin Version
System Arch
System Cores
Server Location
Game Version
Software Version

To disable Metrics, use /skype opt-out

This Plugin utilizes an external Library to Access Skype. The link to the API can be found here

All rights go to the respective owners

Features of Skype in a Bukkit:

Configure multiple activated Skype Chats which will all receive the messages send using the send command.
Chat while playing! As long as you have the Permissions to receive Chat Messages from Skype they will appear in your usual Chatbar.
Send messages to all active Skype Chats!
Skype Users can send !list to the Server to get all currently online Users
Admins can configure remote Users which can use !cmd <command> to run Servercommands via Skype in the config

This has a lifetime of not even half a year from now. Microsoft decided to remove the Skype Desktop API (which is being used by this plugin) till the end of 2013, they recommend to switch to their so called 'Skype URIs'. Unluckily those are sorta limited to opening chats and focusing windows and that stuff, however you can't even use them to send messages. It's a shame that we can't have these plugins then, but maybe Microsoft/Skype will change it's decision at least in parts, when this news gets more popular.

Official announcement in the closed Skype developer forums:

Hi all,
On July 11, 2013 we sent out the below communication to all app directory developers, To help make sure that the message has been received I am duplicating it here.

I am writing to inform you that due to some changes we are making to improve the overall Skype Experience, the Desktop API will cease to function correctly from September 2013 and we have made the decision to de-commission it.

As you may know, Skype has been investing in technology improvements, which will significantly benefit Skype users across all platforms, especially Mobile devices (see "Skype's Mobile Future"). These changes will significantly improve the speed of delivery of calls and messages, whilst retaining excellent battery life. In addition, as more people are using Skype on more devices, we are also working hard to create a more familiar and consistent Skype experience across all of the major platforms (see "Skype passes 100M Android Installs and Launches Redesigned 4.0").

As a consequence of this, we have decided to retire our Desktop APIs. These APIs were originally created in 2004 and do not support mobile application development. Going forward, developers will be able to write applications, which use features of Skype across all the major platforms, through the use of Skype URIs. We believe this will allow developers to create innovative mobile, web and desktop solutions, while retaining a familiar and consistent Skype experience across devices.
Thanks

Download Link has been added now, I uploaded files but it says I don't have any. I think they first need to get approved by a Mod

@ezio95240

@Arrxzon
