How do i create a config.yml

Hello, im still a bit new to making pocketmine plugins, and I was wondering if anyone could explain to me how I can create a config.yml

What exactly do you mean?

You can create a config.yml by creating a new Folder in Source Files and call it resources. In there you create a yaml file called config.

To load the Config on the Server start, use:

PHP:

public function onEnable(){
        $this->saveDefaultConfig();
        $this->reloadConfig();
        }

An Example for how to use the config:

PHP:

$this->getConfig()->get("no-permission");
$this->getConfig()->get("test-message");

Code:

#This is the config
no-permission: You don't have the permission to perform this command.

In a Plugin for example:

PHP:

case "test":
                    if($sender->hasPermission("Test.test")){
                        $sender->sendMessage($this->getConfig()->get("test-message"));
                        return true;
                    } else{
                        $sender->sendMessage($this->getConfig()->get("no-permission"));
                        return true;
                    }

Here is a way that I learned from the great @EvolSoft! Also simpler!
Remember to add the namespace: pocketmine\utils\Config;

PHP:

public function onEnable(){
    // Creates the plugin folder
    @mkdir($this->getDataFolder());
    // Creates the config
    $cfg = new Config($this->getDataFolder()) . "config.yml"), Config::YAML));
}


Then you can add stuff to configs by using:

PHP:

$cfg->set("Number", 1);
// Then save it using:
$cfg->save();

I use

PHP:

public function onEnable(){
    if(!file_exists($this->getDataFolder() . "config.yml")){
      @mkdir($this->getDataFolder());
      file_put_contents($this->getDataFolder()."config.yml", $this->getResource("config.yml"));
    }
}

You should also have a default config.yml file set up in the resource folder

You have to close the resource stream using fclose on the resource.

Or simply:

PHP:

$this->saveDefaultConfig();

how to make 2 config files instead of 1

PHP:

// in main class
$this->config2 = new Config("config2.yml", Config::YAML, $defaultContentsInTheConfig);
