libDynamicBossBar

A simple api virion to create, send, modify and use Minecraft's boss mob indicator bars in Plugins for PocketMine-MP

Advantages

It is quite easy to use this API

• It uses a single object
• Fluent setters (use multiple functions in 1 line)
• Cleaner code
• Easier to understand
• No worrying about the used entity id
• 2 types of bars (BossBar is same for all players, DiverseBossBar can be modified per player)
• No "API::function()" calls, just object methods
• Changeable entity (Can be used for actual boss mobs i.e.)

Types

There are 2 types of boss bars.

• BossBar: is used for shared data, so all registered players see the same bar.
• DiverseBossBar: is used for unique data, their data can be changed per player. They can also be set in a batch for multiple players, and will use default values if no specific data is set for a player. The default data is set like on a shared BossBar

API & usage

Create a new boss bar

/** @var BossBar */
$bar = new BossBar();

Set the title and/or subtitle

$bar->setTitle(string $title = "");
$bar->setSubTitle(string $subTitle = "");

Set the fill percentage

// Half-filled
$bar->setPercentage(0.5);

Add and remove players

// Single
$bar->addPlayer(Player $player);// This will spawn the bar to the player
$bar->removePlayer(Player $player);
// Multiple
/** @var Player[] $players */
$bar->addPlayers(array $players);
$bar->removePlayers(array $players);
$bar->removeAllPlayers();

Hide and show bar

/** @var Player[] $players */
$bar->hideFrom(array $players);
$bar->showTo(array $players);

Get and set the entity the bar is assigned to

/** @var Entity|Player $entity */
$bar->getEntity();
$bar->setEntity(Entity $entity);
$bar->resetEntity();

Single line example

/** @var Player $player */
$player = Server::getInstance()->getPlayerByName("Steve");
/** @var BossBar */
$bar = (new BossBar())->setTitle("Hello world!")->setSubTitle("Foo Bar")->setPercentage(0.5)->addPlayer($player);

---

DiverseBossBar has some additional methods to set data per player:

Reset the data to its defaults

$bar->resetFor(Player $player);
$bar->resetForAll();

Set & get title for players

/** @var Player[] $players */
$bar->setTitleFor(array $players);
$bar->setSubTitleFor(array $players);
$bar->getTitleFor(Player $player);
$bar->getSubTitleFor(Player $player);
$bar->getFullTitleFor(Player $player);// Combined and encoded title & subtitle

Set percentage for players

/** @var Player[] $players */
$bar->setPercentageFor(array $players);
$bar->getPercentageFor(Player $player);
