MavenLoader

A tiny library to load maven dependencies at runtime

Usage

Load resources:

class MyPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
    public void onEnable() {
        //load dependencies
        MavenLoader.loadFromJsonResource(this, "maven.json");
    }
}

The json config may look like this:

{
  "relocations": [
    {
      "pattern": "at.haha007.edencommands",
      "shadedPattern": "my.code.commands",
      "includes": [
      ],
      "excludes": [
      ]
    }
  ],
  "dependencies": [
    {
      "repository": "https://javadoc.jitpack.io/",
      "group": "com.github.EdenUnited",
      "artifact": "EdenCommands",
      "version": "master-SNAPSHOT"
    }
  ]
}

includes, excludes and relocations in general are optional. If you don't need them you can just delete them.
repository is also optional, if you don't specify it, it defaults to maven-central

Maven

<repository>
    <id>jitpack</id>
    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
</repository>

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.EdenUnited</groupId>
    <artifactId>MavenLoader</artifactId>
    <version>version</version>
</dependency>

Be a good developer and relocate the library, so if someone else uses a different version there are no conflicts.
