2 commands COPY / PASTE

Hi,
This is what I want to do:
- /sr copy (It copys the Meta of that item)
- /sr paste (It pastes the Meta on a other item)

How can I do this?

Thx

 

It seems pretty straight forward. When the player does the command '/sr copy' save the ItemMeta as a value in a Map with the Player's name as a key. Then, when they do /sr paste, access the Map with the player's name and put the ItemMeta onto the item they are holding.

 

Thank you!
I need some help with the paste command. I have this

Code:

public HashMap<String, ItemStack> copy = new HashMap<String, ItemStack>();

Copy:

Code:java

    //COPY
        else if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("sr")&& args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("copy") && player.hasPermission("sr.copy")) {
            ItemStack item = player.getItemInHand();
            copy.put(player.getName(), item);
            return true;
            }

Paste: I dont know how to get the Meta from the HashMap

Code:java

    //PASTE
        else if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("sr")&& args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("paste") && player.hasPermission("sr.copy")) {
            ItemStack item1 = player.getItemInHand();
 
            ItemMeta MetaData1 = item.getItemMeta();
 
            ItemStack give = item1.setData(MetaData1);
            player.getInventory().addItem(give);
 
            return true;
            }

Instead of using ItemStack in your Map, use ItemMeta instead.

When you're pasting the ItemMeta, you can retrieve it by using the player's name. copy.get(player.getName()) should do it. You might want to check to make sure the Map contains the player's name first, though.

I have created a code but something is wrong

Code:java

    //PASTE
        else if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("sr")&& args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("paste") && player.hasPermission("sr.copy")) {
            ItemStack item1 = player.getItemInHand();
            ItemStack item = copy.get(player.getName());
            ItemMeta MetaData = item.getItemMeta();         
            item1.setData(MetaData);
            player.getInventory().addItem(item1);
 
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN+(getTranslation("12")));
            return true;
            }

 

"Something is wrong" doesn't really tell me much.

 

Pretty simple : You learn how to use the Bukkit API.

Now it works but it has some bugs:
1.It duplicates the paste item
2.The copy command dosn't work if the item has the original name

Thx

Code:java

    //COPY
        else if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("sr")&& args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("copy") && player.hasPermission("sr.copy")) {
            ItemStack item = player.getItemInHand();
            copy.put(player.getName(), item);
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN+(getTranslation("11")));
            return true;
            }
    //PASTE
        else if (cmd.getName().equalsIgnoreCase("sr")&& args[0].equalsIgnoreCase("paste") && player.hasPermission("sr.copy")) {
            ItemStack item1 = player.getItemInHand();
            ItemStack item = copy.get(player.getName());
            ItemMeta MetaData = item.getItemMeta();         
            item1.setItemMeta(MetaData);
            player.getInventory().addItem(item1);
 
            sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.GREEN+(getTranslation("12")));
            return true;
            }

 

galaipa , amhokies has given you a perfectly good answer. Copy the ItemMeta instead of the ItemStack.

 

FlareLine I fixed the problem with the duplication. I think that it dosn't matter if I use ItemMeta ore ItemStack to solve the 2 problem. However I will try to do that
