[Resource] Easily create Dynamic ItemStacks [Resource]

If you want to create an item, with a display name and lore, insteead of going through a lengthy process, just type:

Code:java

ItemStack myItem = ItemUtill.createItem(Material.DIAMOND_BLOCK, 2, ChatColor.RED + "Diamond Displayname", ChatColor.BLUE + "Diamond Lore");

All you need to do, is make a new class named "ItemUtill" amd then copy and paste this below. NOTE: Remember to change the package
Here is my class:

Code:java

package me.JPG.GameonHubCore.Utills;
 
import java.util.ArrayList;
import org.bukkit.Material;
import org.bukkit.inventory.ItemStack;
import org.bukkit.inventory.meta.ItemMeta;
 
/**
*
* @Author Jake
*/
public class ItemUtill {
 
public static ItemStack createItem(Material material, String displayname, String lore) {
ItemStack item = new ItemStack(material);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.setDisplayName(displayname);
ArrayList<String> Lore = new ArrayList<String>();
Lore.add(lore);
meta.setLore(Lore);
 
 
item.setItemMeta(meta);
return item;
}
 
public static ItemStack createItem(Material material, int amount, String displayname, String lore) {
ItemStack item = new ItemStack(material, amount);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.setDisplayName(displayname);
ArrayList<String> Lore = new ArrayList<String>();
Lore.add(lore);
meta.setLore(Lore);
 
 
item.setItemMeta(meta);
return item;
}
 
public static ItemStack createItem(Material material, String displayname) {
ItemStack item = new ItemStack(material);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.setDisplayName(displayname);
item.setItemMeta(meta);
return item;
}
 
}

Hope you enjoy!

Off the hook but your real name is Jake?

 

xTrollxDudex Actually, no. I don't have a real name, Im not even a human.

So basicly, my name is Bruse Wane. My parents sent me off to earth becase kyrptonite was being attacked, so my real real parents never raised me. Ant may and Uncle ben raised me for 10 years, untill uncle ben died. I soon got the green lantern ring, and started fighting crime. I soon had to develope my web shooters for accuracy.

So yes, its Jake

Some story and imagination you got, you're just like my friend Andrew

 

I know this probably doesn't matter to you, but I use 2 simple methods to do both of those. They both do the same thing, though.

Code:java

    public static ItemStack setLore(ItemStack item, String... lore){
        ItemMeta itemMeta = item.getItemMeta();
        itemMeta.setLore(Arrays.asList(lore)); // Notice this part instead of using ArrayLists.
        item.setItemMeta(itemMeta);
        return item;
    }
 
    public static ItemStack setName(ItemStack item, String name){
        ItemMeta itemMeta = item.getItemMeta();
        itemMeta.setDisplayName(name);
        item.setItemMeta(itemMeta);
        return item;
    }

I do think those are much easier, and instead of having 1 line for each of the lores, you can simply split it (using "string1", "line2", "etc").

 

kreashenz Okay, your methods are shorter/simpler...

 

That's what happend to me too.

 

CaptainBern Yeah, its pretty common.

Make it a 'String...' instead

This way you can do multiple lore lines.

createItem(Material.DIAMOND_SWORD, "§6Boss Sword"," Found in","the ruins","of death");

Code:java

 public static ItemStack createItem(Material material, String displayname, String... lore) {
ItemStack item = new ItemStack(material);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.setDisplayName(displayname);
ArrayList<String> Lore = new ArrayList<String>();
for(String loreString:lore)
Lore.add(loreString);
meta.setLore(Lore);
 
 
item.setItemMeta(meta);
return item;
}
 
public static ItemStack createItem(Material material, int amount, String displayname, String... lore) {
ItemStack item = new ItemStack(material, amount);
ItemMeta meta = item.getItemMeta();
meta.setDisplayName(displayname);
ArrayList<String> Lore = new ArrayList<String>();
for(String loreString:lore)
Lore.add(loreString);
meta.setLore(Lore);
 
 
item.setItemMeta(meta);
return item;
}

 

Nice class!
