Creating a Project

Tip

If you have not set up a Paper plugin project yet, please refer to the official Paper Documentation on Project Setup first.

Adding JustRaces as a Dependency

To use the JustRaces API in your project, you need to add the repository and the dependency to your build configuration file (build.gradle.kts).

Configure build.gradle.kts

Add the JitPack repository to your repositories block and specify Just-Races under your dependencies:

// ...

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven("https://repo.papermc.io/repository/maven-public/")
    maven("https://jitpack.io")
}

dependencies {
    // Replace `RELEASE_TAG` with release tag, e.g., `v1.2.0`
    // Or with `main-SNAPSHOT` if you want use latest version
    compileOnly("com.github.JustJabka:Just-Races:RELEASE_TAG")
}

// ...

Configure paper-plugin.yml

Next, register JustRaces as a dependency in your plugin's manifest file (src/main/resources/paper-plugin.yml). This ensures Paper loads JustRaces before your addon and joins their classloaders.

name: ExampleAddon
version: '1.0.0'
api-version: '26.2'

# ...

dependencies:
  server:
    JustRaces:
      load: BEFORE
      required: true
      join-classpath: true

Important

Setting join-classpath: true is recommended so your addon can seamlessly interact with the shared API types during runtime.
