This is an example server pack addon for [ServerPackCreator](https://github.com/Griefed/ServerPackCreator)
-Server pack addons for ServerPackCreator are executed right after a server pack was generated, allowing for additional
-operations and more customization of server packs. Users are free to write their own addons, distribute and share them.
+The following endpoints are available in ServerPackCreator to add you extra functionality with a plugin. This example plugin provides examples for all four of them:
-This example provides JavaDocs and tests.
+- TabExtension: Allows you to add your own JComponent in the form of an additional tab to the GUI. You can run whatever code you want in that tab.
-Using this example with a [dev-build of ServerPackCreator](https://git.griefed.de/Griefed/ServerPackCreator/-/pipelines?page=1&scope=all&ref=webservice) would result in the following output to the addons.log file:
+- PreGenExtension: Will allow you to run your code before generation of a server pack starts
+- PreZipExtension: Will allow you to run your code after a server pack was generated, but before the ZIP-archive is created
+
+- PostGenExtension: Will allow you to run your code after the server pack ZIP-archive was generated, so right at the on of the SPC process, basically.
+
+Using this example plugin would result in the following or similar output in ServerPackCreator itself:

# 1. The reason for allowing ServerPackCreator to run addons:
-There are things which people want to do with their server packs which could most certainly be automated. Some of those
-things so special, or maybe out of place, that they would not warrant a separate feature for ServerPackCreator itself.
+Some people need additional functionality for their server packs, or have some additional wishes for them. Some of those
+things may not fit into the core functionality of ServerPackCreator itself.
It may also be that it is such a niche feature, that I either don't have the time to code it in, or simply don't want to.
Maybe it doesn't fit into the overall design of ServerPackCreator, too. Who knows, it could be any of those reasons or another.
@@ -47,62 +85,46 @@ Maybe it doesn't fit into the overall design of ServerPackCreator, too. Who know
This allows people to write their own addons to expand the functionality of ServerPackCreator with their own features as
they see fit or want.
-One example would be: Automatic setup of a server pack for [BlueMap](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/bluemap).
-An addon could check all mods in the specified modpacks mods-directory for textures, and if any are found, add them to
-BlueMap's resourcepack folder `config/bluemap/resourcepacks`, install BlueMap for the specified Minecraft and Forge/Fabric
-version and voilà ! ServerPackCreator has BlueMap Support Automation functionality, thanks to an addon, without having to wait
-for me to write it and add it to ServerPackCreators core-functionality for you!
+Some examples for addons can be found [in this discussion thread](https://github.com/Griefed/ServerPackCreator/discussions/201).
-# 2. How
+Some excerpts:
+1. Changelog generator, by @TheButterbrotMan at [Feature request]: Changelog generator #198
+ - A changelog generator that checks the differences to the previous version and generates a changelog.
+
+2. Bundle Adoptium Java with server packs, by @kreezxil at [Feature request]: Bundle Adoptium Java #199
+ - Because modpacks need one of the either Java 8, 16, or 17, it would be nice to have the corresponding https://adoptium.net java prebundled with the server pack.
-## 2.1 Values to work with
+3. Automatic setup of a server pack for [BlueMap](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/bluemap)

-ServerPackCreator passes the configuration used to create a server pack to all addons configured as `serverpack`-addons.
-That list consists of:
-* modpackDir
-* clientMods
-* copyDirs
-* javaPath
-* minecraftVersion
-* modLoader
-* modLoaderVersion
-* includeServerInstallation
-* includeServerIcon
-* includeServerProperties
-* includeZipCreation
+# 2. How
-That list is parsed in `ConfigurationHandler` and written into an instance of `ConfigurationModel`, allowing you to make use
-of the whole configuration with which the server pack, which was generated before the addon gets executed, got made.
+During the start of ServerPackCreator, all plugins are loaded and started. If you have anything you need to run then and there,
+use `public void start() {...}` and do your thing.
-## 2.2 Where to get values from
+## 2.1 Extensions
-Working with this example, you can simply call any `get`-method in the `ConfigurationModel`-class and use it to do your
-operations.
+One plugin can have multiple extensions.
-## 2.3 Working directory
+ServerPackCreator passes the `ConfigurationModel` and `ApplicationProperties`, used to create a server pack, to all `PreGenExtension`, `PreZipExtension` and `PostGenExtension` extensions.
-All addons are run in the <code>work/temp/addon_name</code>-directory. Be aware of that when creating your addons! This also means
-that you should be wary of trying to cleanup the temp-directory yourself, as it could potentially interfere with any other
-addon running after yours!
-ServerPackCreator also passes the path to itself to any of its addons it executes, making it easier for you to work with
-any and all files regarding it and the server packs.
+If you have a plugin with multiple extensions of the same type, you can set the priority in which they are executed by specifiying and ordinal for your extension: `@Extension(ordinal = 1)`
+The higher the ordinal, the lower the priority. See [pf4j documentation](https://pf4j.org/doc/extensions) on extensions.
-## 2.4 Logs
+## 2.2 Logs
-Any and all message you would normally let log4j write to a log-file need to be printed using `System.out.println("Some message.")`
-or similar methods. These are caught by ServerPacKCreator and added to the addons.log.
+If you want to print log messages, then use the `LOG_ADDONS` logger as shown in this example. This will result in ServerPackCreator writing any and all log entries from this logger to the `addons.log`-file.
