OpenSectors version Build Status

OpenSectors allow you to split your world into different servers using Kryonet and other networking solutions. This plugin splits your world into few pieces and each piece is different server. Everything is properly synchronized so it feels like it is one server. It allows you to have more players playing on one world, because it is actually working on few servers, so nothing will stop you from having 3000+ players on a single world!

It also supports basic authentication systems like checking password during the sector connection. That way people who want to connect using their own software to your server and do something bad to it, can't do it!

This presentation will be quite long, so here you have quick links to everything.

Features

  • Basic time synchronization over all the servers
  • Going through sector border and "teleporting" between sectors
  • Super basic chat system
  • Simple, but powerful API
  • Performance (Kryonet / Kryo instead of Redis)
  • Configuration (with JSON support)
  • Security
  • Advanced logging systems
  • ActionBar support
  • Built-in fast MySQL connection and API (using HikariCP)
  • Possibilities

What will be added?

Probably a lot of things, main thing I want to add is weather synchronization and possibility to add own time/weather like synchronizations easily through the API.

How it works / installation?

The project actually contains two projects - linker and system. Both are really important for everything to work.

You put OpenSectorLinker on each of your sectors, and OpenSectorSystem on your BungeeCord (or one of it's forks) server.

Both contain useful configurations, and you should check them!

Remember, you want to unlock port 23904 and 23905 (or other you specify in configuration) because they're used to send data over the sector network.

Do I need redis or something similar?

No! Absolutely not. It's main advantage over it's competitors is - no additional libraries or unconventional databases needed. It's just... plug & play.

You just need a MySQL server which is pretty standard today.

How do I use it with my other plugins?

You need to rewrite them or ask developers to do it for you. There's no way to make this differently. 70% of plugins need to be synchronized over the sector network to work properly.

Fortunatelly, OpenSectors provide super easy API which makes this task much easier for end-user.

You can edit existing plugins to make them work with OpenSectors which will require minimal Java and networking knowledge.

But! I can edit or write plugins which will support OpenSectors for you! You need to contact me directly though.

Configuration

Configuration is pretty simple. The main problem is to provide valid coordinates for your sectors. You can use ready to use configuration below, or create your own. Unfortunatelly, OpenSectors don't provide ANY of location scaling systems or similar currently.

API

Yes, that's what you wanted, don't ya? :D

API is fairly easy, and with Javadocs/code on github it's even easier. But I will tell you how to do basic things using OpenSectors API system. API will be definitely richer in the future, remember that!

Linker

Add this code to your maven dependencies.

    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>opengui</id>
            <url>http://repo.socketbyte.pl/repository/nexus-releases</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>
    
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>pl.socketbyte</groupId>
            <artifactId>OpenSectorLinker</artifactId>
            <version>1.0</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

And of course Spigot/Bukkit engine too!

System

or this code when you make plugin for system:

    <repositories>
        <repository>
            <id>opengui</id>
            <url>http://repo.socketbyte.pl/repository/nexus-releases</url>
        </repository>
    </repositories>
    
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>pl.socketbyte</groupId>
            <artifactId>OpenSectorSystem</artifactId>
            <version>1.0</version>
            <scope>provided</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

There is few types of API calls you can make. Firstly, I would want you to know about packet catching and sending. It is very important in the long term. You want to send a lot of packets and data, and catch it!

This part of the API (packet sending/catching) is also working on system side!

You can register your own Packet extended classes easily, and send them over the network (and/or catch them in the listener) It is fairly easy, look;

PacketExtender packetExtender = SectorAPI.createPacketExtender(PacketExampleTest.class);
packetExtender.setPacketAdapter((connection, packet) ->
        System.out.println("Received PacketExampleTest from the proxy server."));

In order this to work, you need to register this class on system plugin too.

SectorAPI.register(PacketExampleTest.class);

or just create PacketExtender like above.

What is PacketExampleTest? It's a class, which extend Packet class.

public class PacketExampleTest extends Packet {

    private String test;

    public PacketExampleTest() {

    }

    public String getTest() {
        return test;
    }

    public void setTest(String test) {
        this.test = test;
    }

}

Remember, it needs to be absolutely the same on both sides. Congratulations! Now you can send it using:

PacketExampleTest exampleTest = new PacketExampleTest();
exampleTest.setTest("Hello, World!");
SectorAPI.sendTCP(exampleTest);

You can also send UDP packets.

SectorAPI.sendUDP(exampleTest);

You can also register something like pub/sub in Redis. What do I mean? You can register specific channels and send custom payload packet which contain some data. It is less convinient than using PacketExtender but it can be better sometimes.

SectorAPI.registerPayloadChannel("TEST_CHANNEL", (connection, packet) -> {
    System.out.println("Received PacketCustomPayload (TEST_CHANNEL) as a LINKER.");
    System.out.println(packet);
});

You can do the same on the system side. (You don't need to register anything!) Now you can send something, like

PacketCustomPayload customPayload = new PacketCustomPayload();
customPayload.setChannel("TEST_CHANNEL");
customPayload.setData(new Object[] { "Hello", "World!" });
SectorAPI.sendTCP(customPayload);
This part is only for Linkers (who would want to use it on system side though)

This is... MySQL API! How awesome, right? Firstly, you need to make a Query packet.

PacketQuery query = new PacketQuery();
query.setQuery("INSERT INTO something VALUES(?, ?)");

...set replacements...

Map<Integer, Object> replacements = new HashMap<>();
replacements.put(1, "a nice value");
replacements.put(2, "even nicer value");

... and apply & send them!

query.setReplacements(replacements);
SectorAPI.sendQuery(query);

Congratulations, you executed a query on the system side and now your values are in the global database! Amazing! But, what if you want a result...? like... ResultSet? It works with this API too!

Make an execute query

PacketQueryExecute queryExecute = new PacketQueryExecute();
queryExecute.setQuery("SELECT * FROM something WHERE fancier=?");

replacements = new HashMap<>();
replacements.put(1, "even nicer value");

queryExecute.setReplacements(replacements);

... and!

SectorAPI.sendQuery(queryExecute, packetQueryExecute -> {
    SerializableResultSet resultSet = packetQueryExecute.getResultSet();
    while (resultSet.next()) {
        System.out.println("Received from SQL:  " + resultSet.getString(0)
                + " -> " + resultSet.getString(1));
    }
});

You create a query which contains an interface which is your callback. Confusing, right? Not really, it just returns you a modified packet with SerializableResultSet (something which is similar to real ResultSet but cached and serializable)

That's all for the basic API part! You have some other functions but for that you need to check javadocs!
