Placeholder support

[Zenya4]

Is there a placeholder for chat formatting (EssentialsX) for this level addon?

[tastybento]

No, there isn't.

@Poslovitch Is there a way for the add-on to register placeholders?

[Poslovitch]

Yes, but that'll need some boilerplate code. But that's possible .

[Poslovitch]

More and more users are asking for this.
@tastybento Registering a placeholder can be done using this code:

BentoBox.getInstance().getPlaceholdersManager().registerPlaceholder(Addon, String, PlaceholderReplacer);

See the Javadoc for reference.

@Poslovitch Thanks. I'll look into this now.

[tastybento]

Okay, added in commit 8eaca60
It needs testing.

UPDATED with latest commit:

Added these placeholders (BSkyBlock examples):

Level Placeholder
%Level_bskyblock-island-level% - the player's level

Top Ten Placeholders
%Level_bskyblock-island-level-top-value-x% where x is a number between 1 and 10
%Level_bskyblock-island-level-top-name-x% where x is a number between 1 and 10

If the top ten is less than 10 players then the placeholder will return an empty string.

To get the the values for other game modes, for example AcidIsland or CaveBlock, use the same format but with the Addon name in lower case, e.g. %Level_acidisland-island-level%

Tested using Placeholder API's parse command and they work.

e.g.

papi parse LSPVicky level %Level_bskyblock-island-level-top-value-10%
[21:37:20 INFO]: level
papi parse LSPVicky level %Level_bskyblock-island-level-top-value-1%
[21:37:23 INFO]: level 28
papi parse LSPVicky level %Level_bskyblock-island-level%
[21:37:38 INFO]: level 28

Note placeholder names now have the game mode in them so you can get them for any game mode.
