[API 1.4] How to call a plugin API from another plugin

For example how can a call the simpleauth API (example of code) in 1.4
==> bool isPlayerAuthenticated(pocketmine\Player $player)

With 1.3, i was using a static class Bag_zoneAPI and i was calling it like this : $zone = Bag_zoneAPI::getZoneByAlias($args[0]);

Is there a better way to do it in 1.4 ?

PHP:

if( isPlayerAuthenticated(pocketmine\Player $player)){ /* do some */} 

Then why can't I getPlugin() myself in my own plugin? While that function will only be called when the plugin is enabled?

Thx shoghicp ! you are everywhere ;-)

into the plugin.yml ?
Do you have a 1.4 syntax example ?

no... -_- https://github.com/PocketMine/ExamplePlugin https://github.com/PocketMine/SimpleAuth/blob/master/src/SimpleAuth/SimpleAuth.php

xpyctum there is nothing on that plugins because thay don't need any depedencies...
with bukkit i can add dependencies into the plugin.yml
something like that ?
softdepend: [ pluginname ]

i don't know how to do it with the 1.4 api :/ and where to find a response...

Yes.

Code:

softdepend: [SimpleAuth]

What are you saying...

nothing, i brake

thx PEMapModder

and for dependencies ? (not soft) ?

Generally, do you have a documentation with all the parameters allowed into plugin.yml ? (i'm looking for aliases too for command too)

You can define aliases in plugin.yml with "aliases:"

Code:

commands:
  example:
    description: example command
    usage: "Usage: /example"
    aliases: [ex, exa]

The code above is an example, you can run /example command using /ex or /exa.
