Dump Skript variables to YAML.

Simply install this plugin on a server already running Skript and run: /skript-variable-dump

All loaded variables will be dumped into a YAML file generated at: /plugins/Skript/dumps/

That's all.

This tool exists so script authors who intend to rewrite their scripts as plugins have an easy way to export their variable data and import it however they see fit.

Goals

• Export Skript variables to platform-agnostic formats.
  • That way, data stored as variables is portable and accessible outside of Skript's opaque, effectively-proprietary storage format.
  • Use case: rewriting a script as a plugin and importing the script's legacy data.

Non-goals

• Importing previously dumped variables.
  • This tool is meant to be a one-way conversion to get Skript data elsewhere, and since the data itself originates in Skript, importing previous dumps is considered outside this project's scope.

Addons can register adapters for their data types with:

import com.github.goingoffskript.skriptvariabledump.SkriptToYaml;

SkriptToYaml.adapts(ExampleType.class, (example, map) -> {
    map.put("thing", example.thing());
    map.put("amount", example.amount());
});
