SignEdit for Bukkit

Pre-Release Notes

Since Previous Pre-Release

• Added a workaround for a Spigot 1.20 bug where having a player open a sign does not make the sign editable (SPIGOT-7391)
• Preserve the native honeycomb-on-sign action if the signedit.sign.wax permission is denied.
• Locale changes:
  • wax_removed and wax_applied should just be those and not excessively wordy in what their effects are.
  • Eliminated bypass_wax_before and bypass_wax_after to prefer only error messages, as users probably don't care if the implicit de/re-waxing is successful.
  • Reworded bypass_wax_cannot_rewax to make it clear that the wax that was previously on the sign was discarded.

Known Issues

• The new locale strings relating to waxed signs have not been proofread for the locales zh-CN, zh-TW, and zh-HK.

Added

• Support for Minecraft 1.20 sign sides (front and back)
• Support for Minecraft 1.20 honeycomb wax on signs
• On Minecraft 1.20+, opening an editable sign (sign without honeycomb wax) by right-click will open a sign editor handled by this plugin.
• (Minecraft 1.20+ only) /sign wax and /sign unwax commands and permissions to apply and remove honeycomb wax from signs, respectively
• New locale strings:
  • wax_removed – Completed /sign unwax action
  • wax_applied – Completed /sign wax action
  • bypass_wax_cannot_rewax – Warning after a /sign text change that wax was not reapplied because the player lacks permission to /sign wax
  • unwax_sign – /sign unwax pending action description
  • wax_sign – /sign wax pending action description
  • forbidden_waxed_sign_edit – Error that a /sign text change was blocked because the target sign is waxed and the player lacks permission to /sign unwax

Changed

• The documentation of /sign undo and /sign redo has been clarified to indicate that they affect only the sign text, not the dyes or wax applied to the sign.

Fixed

• Failure and error when editing hanging signs and wall hanging signs from Minecraft 1.20 when using compatibility.edit-validation: Extra (#34)

  

• Workaround for a Spigot 1.20 bug where having a player open a sign does not make the sign editable (SPIGOT-7391)

• java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid page number (1) when using compatibility.sign-ui: EditableBook and saving a blank book

Under the Hood

• Tacked on some adapters to make the plugin compatible with Bukkit 1.20 org.bukkit.block.sign.SignSide
• Decreased the right-click event handling priority to the lowest level to avoid interfering with other plugins that handle right-click events on signs
• Permission processing moved from SignCommand.permitted(Player, String) to InteractionCommand.isPermitted()
• SignText.signChanged() renamed to SignText.signTextChanged() as part of clarification that only text changes count in /sign undo and /sign redo
• Started pulling org.bukkit.entity.Player out of constructor injections, as various classes are being used in wider scopes.
• Gradle 9.0 compatibility:
  • Replaced Gradle 8.2 deprecations with recommended replacements
  • Updated Gradle to version 8.2-rc-2
  • Added JDK toolchain resolver plugin to download Java 1.8
• Skip ProGuard for development builds
• Eliminated the dependency on commons-lang:commons-lang
