Interface NMSPacket
- All Superinterfaces:
NMSObject
- All Known Subinterfaces:
NMSOutEntityDestroy,NMSOutEntityStatus
This interface provides the foundational contract for wrapping Minecraft's internal packet objects, enabling type-safe access to packet data and functionality across different Minecraft versions. Packets are the fundamental units of communication between the server and client in Minecraft.
The packet wrapper system abstracts away the complexity of version-specific packet implementations while providing a unified interface for common packet operations. This allows plugins to work with packets without needing to handle the intricacies of different NMS packet formats.
Packet wrappers extend the base NMSObject contract, providing access
to the underlying NMS packet handle when needed for advanced operations that
aren't covered by the wrapper interface.
Example usage:
// Wrap an existing packet
NMSPacket packet = packetHandler.wrapPacket(nmsPacketObject);
// Access packet-specific functionality through typed wrappers
if (packet instanceof NMSOutEntityDestroy) {
NMSOutEntityDestroy destroyPacket = (NMSOutEntityDestroy) packet;
int[] entityIds = destroyPacket.getToDestroy();
}
// Send packet to player
packetHandler.sendPacket(player, packet);
