Gson support for older builds

Hi, I have a Minecraft 1.7.10 server I am developing for and I cannot load this plugin on it. I think it's because of the Minecraft version but if you could add support that would be amazing! Here is the error:

org.bukkit.plugin.InvalidPluginException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/google/gson/GsonBuilder at me.markeh.factionsframework.FactionsFramework.<init>(FactionsFramework.java:60)

Gson is in the org.bukkit.craftbukkit.libs package in 1.7.10. That being said, you can easily patch your server software to support 1.8.3+ plugins:

1. Open your craftbukkit.jar with WinRAR or a similar program
2. Go to org/bukkit/craftbukkit/libs
3. Copy the com folder
4. Paste it in the main directory of craftbukkit.jar

Thanks, it works! :)

Also another thing, how can I add in spaces into my factions command? like for example I want to be able to do this:

/f ability shop
/f ability bal
/f ability top

is there any way to do that?

Sorry for the late response! I'm quite sick at the moment 😷

I could possibly add early detection for Gson and create a fall back to an internal version, I should be supporting every version of Spigot, Bukkit, and MC - so i'll see what I can do!

You mean to show in help? 😃 Just create 3 new command classes, their aliases should be shop, bal, and top!

Then add them as a sub command using the addSubCommand method.

Hope that helped.
