Developers Info
UUIDCacher is used to cache player UUIDs and names. If your plugin needs to get the UUID for a player name (from for example user input), this plugin efficiently converts the name back to a UUID. UUIDCacher is developed for personal use, but if it is of any use to you, feel free to use it too.

Getting started
To get started, download UUIDCacherAPI from the Files and add it to your build path.
In your code, obtain UUIDCacherAPI:
UUIDCacherAPI uuidCacherAPI = (UUIDCacherAPI) Bukkit.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("UUIDCacher");
To retrieve the UUID for a player name:
UUID uuid = uuidCacherAPI.getByName(name);
The returned UUID is null if the player is not found.
