0x02 Getting Instances

QuickShop-Hikari has two types of instances.

  • QuickShopAPI - Contains the APIs you need to develop Addon.
  • QuickShop - Internal instances of QuickShop, which can be used when you need deep inheritance with QuickShop-Hikari

Code Example​

There are multiple ways to get instances of QuickShop.

Getting with static method​


QuickShopAPI api = QuickShopAPI.getInstance();
QuickShop internalInstance = QuickShopAPI.getPluginInstance();

Getting with Bukkit Service Manager​

RegisteredServiceProvider<QuickShopProvider> provider = Bukkit.getServicesManager().getRegistration(QuickShopProvider.class);
  if (provider == null) {
    throw new IllegalStateException("QuickShop hadn't loaded at this moment.");
  }
    QuickShopAPI api = provider.getProvider().getApiInstance();
    QuickShop internalInstance = provider.getProvider().getPluginInstance();

Getting with direct internal call​

:::warn

This approach is not recommended and compatibility may be poor.

:::

QuickShopAPI api = (QuickShopAPI)QuickShop.getInstance();
QuickShop internalInstance = QuickShop.getInstance();

You're done​

Once you get an instance of the plugin API, most of the operations can be done through the instance.
