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.

I have the custom flags plugin, and I have set the custom flag for the chestshop, but it doesn't work. How do I set up a chestshop in a region that is inside the spawn region. I have set priorities also.

@therennon Please create a ticket for it :) (At the top of the page, "Tickets" section)

@wodeo125 Firstly, do you get any errors in the console? Secondly, which economical plugin are you running? With or without Vault?

@GhinnBoy Okay. It seems fine. Do you get any errors in the console? Which economical plugin are you running? And, same as above - with or without Vault?

@ManBeastPigDev Hmm... It's hard for me to say what's wrong. As you probably noticed, the FE build is as-is, I haven't tested it - just compiled the latest Fe from GitHub (fixing a few mistakes, just to build it). Could you provide me with the error log from console?

I used the FE build and shop signs dont work at all. just nothing. So i went back to v3.50 and it works fine. I also deleted the db files and left just the config.yml

So i tried that again with the FE build and its just the same as before, no signs at all. They just do nothing. The FE people say it works with your build but i'm not finding it so. Any info would be nice.

As a side not the FE Dev build is half the size of your regular builds. Is that a fault?

Hello,

notify an incompatibility with the plugin "Survival Games".

When you play in "Survival Games", you should see a menu with the "kits" to select and play.

But if you have installed "ChestShop", the menu disappears.

regards

@LordKainzo Sorry Kainzo, but your fork isn't as maintained as it's needed. You need a multi-world support (or, at least, methods that default to single world). HeroConomy should be re-compiled against the latest Vault version.

@GhinnBoy Could you post your local.yml file on pastebin.org?
Also:
- your ChestShop version?
- do you get any errors in the console?

@teh_jombi Could I get your config.yml file (please send it on pastebin.org)?

@hutt132 Okay, I'll see what I can do to fix it. I did my best, now the hackish methods are coming :D

I have the same issue. I upgraded to the latest ChestShop, iConomy, and Vault builds and the signs worked fine once. Now they don't work again. Literally nothing was changed...

Just says I don't have enough money: http://i.imgur.com/ctx4Q5N.png
