# plugin-yml
[plugin-yml] is a simple Gradle plugin that generates the `plugin.yml` plugin description file for Bukkit plugins,
`bungee.yml` for Bungee plugins or `nukkit.yml` for Nukkit plugins based on the Gradle project. Various properties
are set automatically (e.g. project name, version or description) and additional properties can be added using a
simple DSL.
## Usage
[plugin-yml] requires at least **Gradle 4.2**. Using the latest version of Gradle is recommended.
### Default values
| Property | Value |
| ------------- | ------------- |
| Plugin name | Project name |
| Plugin version | Project version |
| Plugin description | Project description |
| Plugin URL (Bukkit only) | `url` project property |
| Plugin author | `author` project property |
### Bukkit
Groovy
```groovy
plugins {
id 'net.minecrell.plugin-yml.bukkit' version '0.3.0'
}
bukkit {
// Default values can be overridden if needed
// name = 'TestPlugin'
// version = '1.0'
// description = 'This is a test plugin'
// website = 'https://example.com'
// author = 'Notch'
// Plugin main class (required)
main = 'com.example.testplugin.TestPlugin'
// API version (should be set for 1.13+)
apiVersion = '1.13'
// Other possible properties from plugin.yml (optional)
load = 'STARTUP' // or 'POSTWORLD'
authors = ['Notch', 'Notch2']
depend = ['WorldEdit']
softDepend = ['Essentials']
loadBefore = ['BrokenPlugin']
prefix = 'TEST'
defaultPermission = 'OP' // 'TRUE', 'FALSE', 'OP' or 'NOT_OP'
provides = ['TestPluginOldName', 'TestPlug']
commands {
test {
description = 'This is a test command!'
aliases = ['t']
permission = 'testplugin.test'
usage = 'Just run the command!'
// permissionMessage = 'You may not test this command!'
}
// ...
}
permissions {
'testplugin.*' {
children = ['testplugin.test'] // Defaults permissions to true
// You can also specify the values of the permissions
childrenMap = ['testplugin.test': false]
}
'testplugin.test' {
description = 'Allows you to run the test command'
setDefault('OP') // 'TRUE', 'FALSE', 'OP' or 'NOT_OP'
}
}
}
```
