Missing plugin.yml about rainglow HOT 13 CLOSED

Sorry for wasting your time on this issue!
And thank you for your time developing this mod! The community I'm helping get set up loves this concept, along with the pronouns plugin.

This will be one of the "Function only works with client-side mod installed" things...

Have you reported this to purpur? it's an issue on their end, since in normal usage rainglow is a fabric mod and is not expected to have a plugin.yml.

from rainglow.

Every other server-side plugin I've ever installed has a plugin.yml

rainglow is not a plugin, it is a fabric mod. This is not an issue on my end.

Why, then, is it listed when I sort by Server, and have server-side optional on the description page?

from rainglow.

I realised after my initial post that 1.19.3 was the only version listed when I sorted the files by "server", so downloading other versions to test in my troubleshooting step was unnecessary.

Bukkit, Spigot, Paper, Purpur, etc plugins are not the only type of mod that can be used server-side. Fabric mods can also restrict themselves to client or server side.

I'm going to take your word for it, as I haven't done anything with Minecraft mod developing since pre-1.5, so you will be more knowledgeable in this area than I am.

I'll make a post to Purpur about it, but I feel like simply adding a plugin.yml would fix this issue.
Or maybe I'm completely mistaken, and it's more complicate than that.

from rainglow.

yes, please forward this to purpur.
the reason I'm holding out on making a plugin.yml is because I have only ever worked with fabric, and aren't interested in learning about their format just to fix an issue that should be handled on purpur's side. In their software, they take rainglow and transform its code into a plugin for their own use. I'm fairly sure they maintain a rainglow codebase independent to mine, so adding one on my end wouldn't fix anything anyway.

This is true, there is options within the purpur config files. That's how I found out about RainGlow in the first place.
Perhaps I will look a little more into the options before sending the report.

My theory is that the server-side code is there by default, and adding the mod to try and force it to work like a plugin is what MY issue is. I strongly suspect this is an ID:10T error.

from rainglow.

WAIT
yeah that's your issue
sorry I somehow managed to fixate on your issue being purpur's fault and somehow completely forgot that they implement it themselves and you're duplicating functionality anyway
if you're using purpur there's no need to install rainglow manually

don't worry about it, happy to help!
and I'm always happy to see someone who likes rainglow, it's my favourite of my projects :)

yes, rainglow operates on "client required, installing on server gives enhanced functionality"
