ChestShop (iConomyChestShop)

Table of Contents

Acrobot released his first Android game, would you mind giving it a go?

ChestShop

A simple, yet very powerful system for making physical shops using signs and chests.

It's never been that easy to create shops! With features like shop protection and anti-lag protection, you won't have to worry about your server's economy anymore!

"Just works"! ChestShop supports almost all economy plugins by using Vault!

(Versions above 3.9.2 also support economy plugins using the Reserve API)

Some known compatible and incompatible economy plugins.

Please check if there are newer development builds before reporting issues!

If you are upgrading from a previous version of ChestShop please make sure to always read the warnings in the file's changelog!

The plugin by default submits anonymous stats about your server (player count, plugin/server version and type) to a public statistics websites (mcstats.org and bstats.org) in order to provide the developers with usage information. If you wish to opt out, you can do so in the PluginMetrics/config.yml and bstats/config.yml files. It also features an auto-update feature, which can be turned off in the config.

Using shops

It's easy! Just right-click the sign to buy, left-click to sell. (You can configure the buttons in the config file!)

How to create a shop

Player shop


Place a chest on the ground
Place a sign 1 block away from the chest (for example, above it)
On the sign, write:
Leave the first line empty. It will be automatically filled with your name by the plugin (if you have the permission ChestShop.admin then you can create shops with the names of other players)
Second line is the amount of items to buy or sell
Third line is a combination of buy and sell prices. You need to have a price indicator (like 'B' - price that will apply to items BOUGHT by PLAYERS - or 'S' - the SELL price) near the price - the prices are separated by a colon (:)	Some of the possible price combinations: "B 5:5 S", "B 5", "S free"
The forth line will hold the id/name of the item. Write ? on the sign and the item will be autofilled with the one from the chest or you can click on the sign with the item afterwards. Optionally you can put the actual name on it. You can find out the name of the item you're holding by doing /iteminfo
Resulting Shop
	A person can buy 64 diamonds for 10 dollars and sell them back for 5 dollars from Phoenix616

If you want you can also take a look at this video tutorial.

Admin Shop - shop with unlimited items

Firstly, you've got to be sure that you've the ChestShop.admin permission or that you are an OP. To make an Admin Shop, simply put "Admin Shop" (configurable in config.yml) on the first line of the sign when creating the shop. Admin Shops do not require a chest!

Translations

The latest builds include translations for many languages. They are shipped with the plugin. If you want to help out translating messages check out the ChestShop Crowdin project!

Commands

/iteminfo - Get information about the item in your hand
/iteminfo <id/name> - Get information about the item with the given id or name
/shopinfo - Get information about the looked-at shop
/csgive <itemcode> [<amount>] [<player>] - Give item with a unique ChestShop code to a player
/cstoggle - Toggle buy and sell notificiation messages
/chestshop version - Display the ChestShop version
/chestshop reload - Reload the ChestShop config and translation messages. (This might not reload some features)
/csaccess - Toggles ability to buy/sell on shops while having admin/access permissions and normally being ignored

Permission nodes

	Description
ChestShop.shop.*	shop creation and buying/selling - it contains:
	ChestShop.shop.create.*	create all types of shops
	ChestShop.shop.buy	buy any item from shop
	ChestShop.shop.sell	sell any item to shop
ChestShop.mod	open any shop chest
ChestShop.admin	open any shop chest, destroy stores, create (admin) shops

A full list of permission nodes

Configurations

Besides defining which shops a player can create via permission you can also configure almost any aspect about the plugin in the automatically generated yml files. The more general settings are in the config.yml (with explaining comments), setting minimum/maximum prices is done via the priceLimits.yml and setting up admin shop discounts is done via the discounts.yml.

Please make sure to look through the generated configurations and see if the default settings are to your liking and fit your setup! Some of them (e.g. the IGNORE_ACCESS_PERMS) might result in shops seemingly not work for you if you are op or are in the wrong WorldGuard region, check that before reporting an issue!

Useful tips by players

How not to get bankrupt	A customisable price table
	Alternative price table

Compatibility

ChestShop directly hooks into the following plugins to provide additional functionality:

AuthMe (and forks like AuthMe Reloaded)
WorldGuard
Residence
LWC (and forks like LWCX and Modern-LWC)
Lockette
LockettePro
Deadbolt
SimpleChestLock
OddItem
Heroes
ShowItem

Metrics

This resource sends metrics data to McStats and bStats. You can opt-out of metrics for all plugins on your server by changing the settings in the PluginMetrics/config.yml and the bStats/config.yml file if you don't want any data to be send.

More info

Even more information can be found in the old plugin thread on the forums.

As I stated in my first post at: @bhallowitz

"I'm currently using BOSEconomy version 0.7.3.1 and vault version 1.2.20-b264"

We were in creative mode for both tests, but as I said before, the sign didn't break on the first version that I tested, only on the second one. We did try using the shop with and without a block in hand for all tests, but never a sign. We were in a world guard region with the chest-access: ALLOW flag on and building off for everyone (both myself and the moderator who was helping me have the build override permission for world guard though), but I don't think that would have this effect. I do have the lwc.admin.* permission for myself, and that includes the ability to override lwc protections, but again, the sign didn't break in v3.50 t0035.

NOTE: No plugins have been updated since my first post except chest shop.

I can do this too. I can also reproduce it for my case, I don't know about the other two since one way has to do with a plugin, the other is an anvil. I use easyenchant on my server and it allows me to remove enchantments from a weapon. If I do that, I can infinitely sell as many items as I want. The same applies for if I rename the item with an anvil, it will infinitely sell and not stop. Guessing its not taking the item since it isn't exact anymore, but it is still recognizing that you have it. Using the test version 37 and it does not happen on the pretest versions on beta.

Hmmm ._.

That's weird. Are you using Vault?

@wslauson Hmm.... Maybe it's a weird question, but are you maybe trying to use shops with a block in hand? Or a sign? Or in creative mode?

The signs look how they are supposed to, they even fill out the players name on their own. As for being shop owner, no I was not the owner. Also in version t0035 I couldn't break the sign. But now not only can I break the sign, but the refund money from creating the shop goes to my account instead. And for your last question, the only messages in the console that pertain to your plugin are the normal server start and stop messages about enabling and disabling the plugin. (Note: I am running craftbukkit 1.4.5-R0.2, NOT the release build, as most plugins I use haven't been updated to work with the new safe guard feature)

They look like the normal signs. 1st line - player name 2nd line - amount 3rd line - price with B in front 4th line - item name (e.g Diamond)

How do your signs look like?

Also, bhallowitz - does it also happen if you're not the shop owner? Do you get any errors in the console?

@dahv

Update?

I'm having the exact same issue with all of the test versions. I'm currently using BOSEconomy version 0.7.3.1 and vault version 1.2.20-b264. Also as of test version 3.50t0037 and using LWC version 4.3.1 shop signs will break when punched even if your not crouching. It is really breaking the core of my economy system, as there is no way to spend or earn money in game besides voting for the server.

Hi. Since updating to your latest 3.50 TEST version, my players can no longer use the shops. I can creat them fine, however when someone goes to use them, absolutely nothing happens. No error, no message, nothing. I have made sure that the chest and sign are unlocked with LWC. I have been using the test versions for a while and even deleted the config files to see if that would help. Nothing. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks, wslauson

Using Essentials one. And players can sell things which they dont have in their inventory.
