Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ AbstractArgument()

dev.jorel.commandapi.arguments.AbstractArgument< T, Impl, Argument, CommandSender >.AbstractArgument ( String  nodeName,
ArgumentType<?>  rawType 
)
protected

Constructs an argument with a given NMS/brigadier type.

Parameters
nodeNamethe name to assign to this argument node
rawTypethe NMS or brigadier type to be used for this argument

Member Function Documentation

◆ clearExecutors()

Impl dev.jorel.commandapi.Executable< Impl, CommandSender >.clearExecutors ( )

◆ combineWith()

final Impl dev.jorel.commandapi.arguments.AbstractArgument< T, Impl, Argument, CommandSender >.combineWith ( Argument...  combinedArguments)

Adds combined arguments to this argument.

Combined arguments are used to have required arguments after optional arguments by ignoring they exist until they are added to the arguments array for registration.

This method also causes permissions and requirements from this argument to be copied over to the arguments you want to combine this argument with. Their permissions and requirements will be ignored.

Parameters

Returns
this current argument
