ChestKeeper
UPDATE
Due to the uncertain future of Bukkit & its API, I'm not planning anymore to update this plugin.
Let's wait and see how the situation will turn out. I may update it if the Glowstone team decides to continue to implement the Bukkit API in their server, or I may rewrite it for the upcoming Glowstone native API.
Hiring beta-testers!
I need you to beta test the plugin. Please contact me!
1.7.10 Update Status
I've started updating the plugin today.
I've got a working implementation of Bukkit's Inventory interface, with serialization capabilities, and from there it is all downhill.
I'm putting a TO-DO list here, which will get updated when I progress with the code:
[100% done]Virtual Chest implementation[100% done]Code to write changes to the disk[100% done]Code to manage the virtual chests in memory[100% done]Event handling[100% done]Basic permissions[100% done]Basic economy support[100% done]Basing settings (min & max slots, prices)
As soon as I complete all of those a first working updated version of the plugin will be released. I expect this to happen on the 8th of August.
UPDATE: we are testing!
UPDATE2: CraftBukkit has a problem which breaks my plugin. More info. :(
Then, I will work on additional features such as:
- Customizable save interval
- More permissions
- Better economy support
- Possibility for admin and staff members to open players' chests
- Opening Ender Chests with signs
- Sharing chests among 2 or more (yet to be decided) players
- Possibility to ban certain items from the virtual chests
- Feel free to request more features!

Everything below is outdated. I will rewrite this page after updating the plugin. Thank you for your patience!

ChestKeeper (previously known as ChestBank) allows to have unlimited per-user upgradable (in size) virtual chests.
It supports all the principal economy plugins trough Vault, and will soon support permissions!
Features
- It works using signs, no commands
- It can save every item in the game, as it supports data values and enchantments thanks to a modified version of CardboardBox
- It saves the chest on the hard disk every 3 minutes (this time will be customizable)
- You can set the price to buy, upgrade or open chests
- Permissions to open, buy, upgrade chests
- Admin commands to open, buy, upgrade and delete chests
Planned features
- Customizable auto-save time
Factions support(thanks to Master_Zangetsu for the suggestion)- You can completely disable economy and permissions, so the plugin will run without Vault
If you want to request a feature, open a ticket :)
How to use
See this page.
Commands and Permissions
See this page.
Other things to say
You can download the beta version, but keep in mind that even if there are not notable bugs, this doesn't mean that there are no bugs at all (captain obvious :P).
Please report the bugs opening a ticket, and remember to include (if there is) the full stack trace.
Also, report any language error because I'm not native English :)
GG.

Please update it! I wanted to try virtual chest for this but I just don't know how to use it on signs. I feel like this plugin will work way better than any other I've seen!

Posted Dec 28, 2013Wow, I'm quite surprised than in over a year no one has made a plugin that can replace mine. I kind of abandoned Minecraft, but I could come back and update the plugin if someone is interested.

Posted Oct 8, 2012Please keep this plugin updated and continue to work on it! Bukkit needs a good virtual chest plugin and the VirtualChest plugin itself was abandoned once and right now it is laggy and buggy. thanks for this plugin!

Posted Sep 20, 2012does this back up the user chest data via mysql? if not, it should, because it sounds like it just backs it up on the server running it, and if the server gets rebooted and people put stuff in their chest, they could loose some things if it didn't save. even if you save it onDisable(), it is still really good to have it backed up via an external server
