When using Maven, make sure to build directly with Maven and not with your IDE configuration (on IntelliJ IDEA: in the Maven tab on the right, in Lifecycle, use package).

Gradle

plugins {
    id 'com.github.johnrengelman.shadow' version '8.1.1'
}

repositories {
    maven {
        url "https://repo.skyblocksquad.de/repo"
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation 'de.timongcraft:VeloBoard:CURRENT_VERSION'
}

shadowJar {
    // Replace 'com.yourpackage' with the package of your plugin 
    relocate 'de.timongcraft.veloboard', 'com.yourpackage.veloboard'
}

Manual

Copy all files in your plugin.

Usage

Registering packets

First you need to call VeloBoardRegistry.register() in your Main or ProxyInitializeEvent to register the necessary packets.

Creating a scoreboard

Simply create a new VeloBoard and update the title and the lines:

VeloBoard board = new VeloBoard(player);

// Set the title
board.updateTitle(Component.text("VeloBoard").color(NamedTextColor.BLUE));

// Change the lines
board.updateLines(
        Component.empty(), // Empty line
        Component.text("One line"),
        Component.empty(),
        Component.text("Second line")
);

Example

Small example plugin with a scoreboard that refreshes every second:

package de.timongcraft.veloboard.example;

import com.google.inject.Inject;
import com.velocitypowered.api.event.Subscribe;
import com.velocitypowered.api.event.connection.DisconnectEvent;
import com.velocitypowered.api.event.connection.PostLoginEvent;
import com.velocitypowered.api.event.proxy.ProxyInitializeEvent;
import com.velocitypowered.api.plugin.Plugin;
import com.velocitypowered.api.proxy.Player;
import com.velocitypowered.api.proxy.ProxyServer;
import net.kyori.adventure.text.Component;
import net.kyori.adventure.text.format.NamedTextColor;

import java.time.Duration;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import java.util.UUID;

@Plugin(
        id = "example",
        name = "ExamplePlugin",
        version = "1.0"
)
public class ExamplePlugin {

    private final ProxyServer server;
    private final Map<UUID, VeloBoard> boards = new HashMap<>();

    @Inject
    public ExamplePlugin(ProxyServer server) {
        this.server = server;
    }

    @Subscribe
    public void onProxyInitialization(ProxyInitializeEvent event) {
        VeloBoardRegistry.register();

        server.getScheduler().buildTask(this, () -> {
            for (VeloBoard board : boards.values())
                updateBoard(board);
        }).repeat(Duration.ofSeconds(1)).schedule();
    }

    @Subscribe
    public void onPostLogin(PostLoginEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();

        VeloBoard board = new VeloBoard(player);
        board.updateTitle(Component.text("VeloBoard").color(NamedTextColor.BLUE));
        boards.put(player.getUniqueId(), board);
    }

    @Subscribe
    @SuppressWarnings("UnstableApiUsage")
    public void onServerPostConnect(ServerPostConnectEvent event) {
        boards.get(event.getPlayer().getUniqueId()).resend();
    }

    @Subscribe
    public void onDisconnect(DisconnectEvent event) {
        Player player = event.getPlayer();

        VeloBoard board = boards.remove(player.getUniqueId());
        if (board != null)
            board.delete();
    }

    private void updateBoard(VeloBoard board) {
        board.updateLines(
                Component.empty(),
                Component.text("Players: " + server.getPlayerCount()),
                Component.empty(),
                Component.text("Ping: " + board.getPlayer().getPing()),
                Component.empty()
        );
    }
