Making an additional engine
You are able to create your own engines with the API
Creating a new engine
To create a new engine, you need to extend the PasswordEngine class. This will require you to override these two methods:
void createPassword(OnlineUser player, String password): This method is called when a player creates a new password. You can use this method to create a new password for the player.boolean validatePassword(OnlineUser player, String password): This method is called when a player tries to log in. You can use this method to check if the password is correct.
Example:
public class PinCode extends PasswordEngine {
public PinCode(IGroupSecurity plugin) {
super(plugin, "pin");
}
@Override
public void createPassword(OnlineUser player, String password) {
if (registered(plugin, player)) return;
plugin.getDatabase().setPassword(player.getUuid(), password);
player.sendMessage(plugin.getLocales().getOrFallback("pin_registered"));
plugin.getDatabase().setRegistered(player.getUuid(), true);
}
@Override
public boolean validatePassword(OnlineUser player, String password) {
return plugin.getDatabase().getPassword(player.getUuid()).equals(password);
}
}Registering the engine
With the engine created, you can now register it with the API. You can do this in your onEnable (or any equivalent) method:
@Override
public void onEnable() {
GroupSecurityAPI api = GroupSecurityAPI.getInstance();
api.registerEngine((plugin) -> new PinCode(plugin));
