New Features

• Multi-database support — SQLite, H2, MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL are all supported. Configure the driver in database.yml.
• H2 as default database — Zero configuration needed. Just start the server and it works out of the box.
• Runtime library downloading — All external libraries are downloaded from Maven Central on first startup and cached in plugins/link/libraries/. Plugin JARs are now ~90 KB instead of ~30 MB.
• Configurable log levels — Control HikariCP and JDA log verbosity from config.yml under the logging section.
• Graceful startup without Discord token — If no token is configured, the plugin logs a clean error and continues starting the database instead of crashing.

Improvements

• Detailed config comments — discord.yml and database.yml now include helpful comments explaining every option, including how to obtain your Discord bot token, guild ID, and role ID.
• Cross-database SQL compatibility — All queries use bound parameters for full compatibility across every supported driver.
• File-based databases in plugin folder — SQLite and H2 databases are stored inside the plugin's data directory automatically.
• Cleaner console output — Noisy HikariCP and JDA log messages are suppressed by default. Configurable via config.yml.
• Smaller, faster JARs — Heavy dependencies are no longer bundled. They're downloaded once and cached locally.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed Velocity startup crash — Resolved NoClassDefFoundError caused by Guice scanning JDA classes before dependencies were loaded.
• Fixed driver registration — Database drivers now register correctly across all platforms.
• Fixed Jackson dependency version — Corrected a version mismatch that caused download failures on first startup.
• Fixed file-based database pool settings — Connection pool size is correctly limited for SQLite and H2.
