Using BaseComponents

Using BaseComponents is really easy with this library. All you need to do is to implement RicherPrompt in your custom Prompt class. Instead of implementing String getPromptText(ConversationContext context you need to implement BaseComponent getRicherPromptText(ConversationContext context). Of course you have to use RicherConversationFactory when creating the conversation. The underlying implementation will then send the base component if one is given and the user conversing is a player. If it's the console you may still use BaseComponents, but they will be converted to plain text in the console.

Full Example:

A basic prompt using base components that just displays a message.

public class BaseComponentPrompt extends MessagePrompt implements RicherPrompt {

    @Override
    public BaseComponent getRicherPromptText(ConversationContext context) {
        return new TextComponent(new ComponentBuilder()
                .append("I'm a ")
                .color(ChatColor.of("#C38D9E"))
                .append("message created from")
                .underlined(true)
                .append(" base components")
                .color(ChatColor.of("#3FEEE6"))
                .underlined(false)
                .bold(true)
                .event(new HoverEvent(HoverEvent.Action.SHOW_TEXT, new Text(new ComponentBuilder()
                        .append("Yes, really!")
                        .color(ChatColor.of("#E8A87C"))
                        .create())))
                .append(" in a conversation prompt.")
                .bold(false)
                .color(ChatColor.of("#C38D9E"))
                .create());
    }

    @Override
    protected Prompt getNextPrompt(ConversationContext context) {
        return END_OF_CONVERSATION;
    }
}

Creating and initiating the conversation.

Conversation conversation = new RicherConversationFactory(this)
        .withLocalEcho(true)
        .withModality(true)
        .withPrefix(context -> ChatColor.of("#E27D60") + "[" + ChatColor.of("#41B3A3") + "ExamplePlugin" + ChatColor.of("#E27D60") + "] ")
        .withFirstPrompt(new BaseComponentPrompt())
        .buildConversation(player);
conversation.begin();
