Building

Debuggery requires Java 17 to build. I'd recommend using Adoptium builds.

Once cloned, use the gradle wrapper included in this repository to build a runnable jar.

./gradlew build

You will find a compiled version in the ./build/libs/ directory.

What is it?

Debuggery is a small plugin designed to expose API values at runtime.

tab-complete webby console explode return-info exception

Why?

I got sick of maintaining a complicated API testing suite. This plugin allows me to check individual API behavior without having to write a test plugin for every minor issue that gets reported. That's not to say this can entirely replace proper testing of all API interactions in all circumstances... yet.

Furthermore, this is a massively handy utility to have while testing vanilla behaviors and other unrelated systems.

I do not recommend you install this plugin on a production server

Yes, it has permissions checks. No, I'm not aware of any way to get around them.

This is still a lot of power to dump on your server. Do so with caution and at your own risk.

How do I use it?

To get a command listing, type /debuggery and hit tab. The plugin is very reliant on tab auto completion, so try it on any command.

How does it handle more complicated objects?

There is basic support for formatting object types without proper toString() methods and/or those that have poor toString() methods. Every one of them has to be added manually so right now I'm most concerned with supporting those that the API returns. If you find any missing, feel free to open an issue or contribute them.

Can I set values using Debuggery?

Yes. Currently input handling is rather basic.

Arguments are delimited by spaces as per Bukkit, therefore when you specify more complex inputs it is not particularly friendly. For example, to specify a Location, you must enter worldName,x,y,z as in /dplayer teleport(.) world,1,100,1. I will eventually get around to investigating some sort of standardized patterns for this, perhaps even moving away from Bukkit's space delimiter system.

Furthermore, every conversion from string -> object is added manually, so some are currently missing. Feel free to open an issue or contribute them.
