Libb

- If display_name is not specified, the item's name will be shown instead of nothing. - Automatic downloading of required libraries: libraries are no longer bundled within the plugin itself but are downloaded if not found on your server. - Examples: Hikari and Adventure (this enables the use of MiniMessage on Spigot and also reduces the plugin's JAR size). - Added the LibbApi.getDependentPlugins() method, which returns a list of plugins that use Libb. - Upgraded from Java 17 to Java 21. Checked the stats and zero servers were running Java 17—I'm so proud of you all :face_holding_back_tears:—you're finally starting to switch to newer versions. - Added the [close] action, which closes the player's open GUI.

- Spigot support (Please use paper or forks for best expirience)

Serializers

- Reintroducing support for legacy colorization—and more!

# Available serializers:
# LEGACY_AMPERSAND  - "&c&lExample &c&9Text"
# LEGACY_SECTION    - "§c§lExample §c§9Text"
# MINI_MESSAGE      - "<bold><red>Example</red> <blue>Text</blue></bold>"
# GSON              - "[{"text":"Example","bold":true,"color":"red"},{"text":" Text","color":"blue"}]"
# PLAIN             - "Example Text"
# MINIMAL           - &l#RGBExample <#RGB>Text</#RGB>
# UNIFIED - Include all, except GSON
serializer:
type: UNIFIED
cache:
enabled: true
max-size: 500

- Usage: Serializer.TYPE.deserialize(String) → Component - Cache: When cache: true, duplicate strings are not re-serialized—the component is retrieved from an LRU cache (default size: 500 entries). - Cache Preloading (Warm-up):

List<String> messages = config.getStringList("messages");
Serializer.UNIFIED.cacheAll(messages);

- Dynamically obtaining a serializer (based on the type specified in the config):

SerializerType type = SerializerType.valueOf(config.getString("serializer.type"));
HashedSerializer serializer = Serializer.get(type);

Component component = serializer.deserialize(input);

- GUIs now include built-in support for these serializers. [Download](https://modrinth.com/plugin/libb) | [Source Code](https://github.com/JetbyMC/Libb)
