WorldEdit API Load Schematic to Location.

I've been looking for a way to load a schematic to a specific location using the WorldEdit API. I have come across this function in the WorldEdit documentation but Im not sure how to use it. Would anyone give me a suggestion? Or code examples.

Code:

load
 
public abstract CuboidClipboard load(File file)
                              throws IOException,
                                    DataException
Loads a schematic from the given file into a CuboidClipboard
Parameters:
file - The file to load from
Returns:
The CuboidClipboard containing the contents of this schematic
Throws:
IOException - If an error occurs while reading data
DataException - if data is not in the correct format

What do you need it for, maybe there are better ways. Plugins without dependency are always better.

I'm working on loading schematics for server owners who host on their own computers.

I don't get you: for people who host on their own computers? Explain yourself because WorldEdit and MCEdit can open the schematics.

@DocRedstone this might help: https://github.com/desht/ChessCraft...me/desht/chesscraft/blocks/TerrainBackup.java

Obviously you'll need to adapt for your own needs, but it shows how to use the WorldEdit API to load & save schematics.

I really need to get round to adding a post in the resources section on how to do this...

Yeah, what's wrong with //schematic load?

Because I want to learn something and challenge myself by making a plugin.

Fair enough.
I'm interested in this too.

@DocRedstone

Code:java

private void loadArea(World world, File file,Vector origin) throws DataException, IOException, MaxChangedBlocksException{
    EditSession es = new EditSession(new BukkitWorld(world), 999999999);
    CuboidClipboard cc = CuboidClipboard.loadSchematic(file);
    cc.paste(es, origin, false);
}

Where file is the schematic, and vector is the location where it should be pasted from.

This looks like it doesn't need WorldEdit. Do you happen to know how to save a schematic without worldedit?

This is WorldEdit.

No, it needs WorldEdit.

And no, you could look into how WorldEdit does it though.

how would i for instance make it so it pastes it infront of the player
