Not released

One would need a TridentSDK JAR to debug plugins, use the plugin API, or otherwise any application that isn't evil.

If you have decided that our forms of distribution are questionable, or you would like to modify something before getting a JAR file, you want to build from the source directly.

1. A computer
2. Git
3. Maven

Type in the following into the command line:

git clone -b [master|bleeding-edge] https://github.com/TridentSDK/TridentSDK.git
cd TridentSDK
mvn clean install

One would use master to ensure compatibility with the latest build of Trident. Otherwise, for the most up-to-date (and potentially breaking) build of TridentSDK, one would use bleeding-edge. If you are building the JAR yourself, it is your responsibility to know which one is right for you.

The built JAR will ./TridentSDK/target/tridentsdk-*.jar

For a precompiled solution, one which has passed the tests we have wrote, as well as if you are too lazy to download 2 files and install the Method one prerequeisites, you can download one yourself.

If we've released a JAR for you to use, it usually comes with a nice read. So if you like nice reads or the look of our official website, you can go rummage around the releases forum and look for a download link.

Fortunately, because there are no releases yet, you don't need to do that quite yet.

TridentSDK provides an extensive API which allows both high and low level control over the Trident server.

A jar placed in the plugins folder is a valid plugin, if it has a class that does not have the same descriptor as an existing Trident or TridentSDK class. It must also have one and only one class whose superclass is net.tridentsdk.plugin.Plugin, annotated with net.tridentsdk.plugin.annotation.PluginDesc with a non-empty name field.

Example:

package com.example;

import net.tridentsdk.plugin.Plugin;

@PluginDesc(name = "Plugin")
public class ExamplePlugin extends Plugin {
}

This is the minimal requirements to have a plugin loaded by the server.
