• Moved getPlayerNameFromUUID and getPlayerUUIDFromName to MethodInterface
• Moved cancelTask to new Scheduler API
• UUIDFetchManager has been refactored to use the new Scheduler API, making it redundant to use UUIDSpigot / UUIDSponge / UUIDVelocity / UUIDBungee
• Sorter and UUIDFetcher have been moved to util package

Arguments API (Universal Commands)

There is now an argument API. Example Usage (Only for Universal Commands)

// Required for registering arguments
        addArgument(new Argument("example", (sender, args) -> {
          foo();
        }));

// Usually in execute() method of Universal Commands
            try {
                ArgumentRunnable argumentRunnable = handleArguments(sender, args); // Get the argument runnable which runs the code
                argumentRunnable.run(sender, args);
            } catch (ArgumentNotFoundException e) {
            // Handle when argument not found
            }

Some extra features. Enhancements will come soon

I've just worked a bit on the feature set and I plan to rewrite MySQL (the current one will be known as legacy) with annotations and reflection which will probably be better and more user-friendly for the developer.

Changelog:

• Added Scheduling
• Console instances can now be checked with "instanceOf IFConsole"
• Vanish check WIP

Bug Fixes to MySQL and improvements

• Migrated to MariaDB connector
• Added search() command for Universal Command for auto complete
• Improvements to MySQL
