v1.1.1 This pull request updates the plugin version and the supported Paper platform version in the `gradle.properties` file. Version updates: * Bumped `pluginVersion` from `1.1.0` to `1.1.1` to reflect a new release. * Updated `paperVersion` from `1.21.9` to `1.21.11` to support the latest Paper platform version.

v1.1.0 This pull request introduces several significant updates to the LyttleTab plugin, focusing on modernizing command registration for Paper 1.21, improving configuration migration, and enhancing the tab list's customization and sorting capabilities. The plugin now uses Paper's Brigadier-based command system, supports animated tab headers/footers, adds new sorting options, and includes configuration versioning/migration improvements. Additionally, legacy Bukkit command registration is removed in favor of Paper's recommended practices. **Command System Modernization:** - Migrated the `/lyttletab` admin command to Paper's Brigadier command API, removing the legacy Bukkit command executor and tab completer. Commands are now registered using `LifecycleEventManager` and the `Commands` registrar, with support for permission checks and subcommands like `reload`.

v1.1.0 This pull request migrates the LyttleTab plugin from the legacy Bukkit command and plugin system to the modern Paper plugin API, specifically adopting Brigadier-based command registration and Paper's new plugin lifecycle events. It also removes the old `plugin.yml` in favor of the Paper-specific plugin descriptor files. The most significant changes are grouped below: **Migration to Paper API and Brigadier Commands:** * Refactored command registration from Bukkit's `CommandExecutor`/`TabCompleter` to Paper's Brigadier command system, using `LifecycleEventManager` and `Commands` for dynamic command registration in `LyttleTab.java`.

v1.0.5 This pull request introduces a new config version (v2) for the plugin, focusing on enhancing the tab list configuration with new features, improving migration logic, updating dependencies, and refining reload behavior. The changes ensure smoother upgrades, better customization, and improved plugin compatibility. **Configuration and Feature Enhancements:** - Upgraded the tab list configuration (`tab.yml`) to support animated headers/footers, configurable animation intervals, invisibility potion hiding, and a powerful, fully configurable sorting system for players in the tab list. Default refresh intervals and sorting rules have also been improved. - Bumped the config version to 2 in both the default and main `config.yml` files to reflect the new configuration schema. **Migration and Backward Compatibility:** - Enhanced the `migrateConfig()` method in `LyttleTab.java` to handle migration from version 1 to version 2, including transforming header/footer entries into lists and copying new sorting and animation settings. This ensures seamless upgrades for existing users. **Plugin Dependency and Compatibility Updates:** - Declared `PlaceholderAPI` and `LuckPerms` as soft dependencies in `plugin.yml`, improving integration and feature detection for these plugins. **Reload and Handler Improvements:** - Changed the reload command logic to call `tabHandler.reload()` instead of `refreshTabList()` for more robust reinitialization after config reloads. **Version and Platform Updates:** - Updated the plugin version to 1.0.5 and the supported Paper version to 1.21.9 in `gradle.properties`.

v1.0.4 This pull request consolidates and improves the CI/CD workflows for releasing and publishing the project, updates the plugin version, and refactors configuration handling in the Java codebase.

v1.0.3 This pull request introduces several changes to streamline workflows, enhance functionality in the `TabHandler` class, and update plugin configurations and dependencies. The most notable changes include the removal of the beta release workflow, enhancements to the tab list feature, and updates to plugin versioning and dependencies. ### Workflow Updates: - **Removal of Beta Workflow**: The `.github/workflows/beta.yml` file was deleted, removing the workflow for publishing packages to the beta branch. - **Renaming Main Workflow**: The `.github/workflows/main.yml` file was updated to rename the workflow from "Release & Publish Packages (Beta Branch)" to "Release & Publish Packages (Main Branch)." ### Plugin Enhancements: - **Tab List Improvements**: - Made the `setTabList` method private and added a new `getTabPriority` method to determine player tab priorities based on permissions. This improves the layout and order of players in the tab list. - Added new configurations to `tab.yml` files for tab list features, including headers, footers, player layout, and refresh intervals. ### Plugin Version and Dependency Updates: - **Version Updates**: - Updated `pluginVersion` from `1.0.1` to `1.0.3` and `paperVersion` from `1.21.5` to `1.21.8` in `gradle.properties`. - **Dependency Cleanup**: - Removed the `gradle/libs.versions.toml` file, eliminating references to dependencies such as VaultAPI, Paper API, and LuckPerms API.

v1.0.1 This pull request introduces several changes across workflows, configuration files, and Java source code to enhance the release process, improve configuration migration, and add a new feature for refreshing the tab list periodically. Below are the most important changes grouped by theme. ### Workflow Enhancements: * Updated `.github/workflows/alpha.yml`, `.github/workflows/beta.yml`, and `.github/workflows/main.yml` to rename workflows for clarity (e.g., "Release & Publish Packages") and added steps for publishing artifacts to GitHub Packages, Hangar, and Modrinth. Each workflow now targets specific branches (`alpha`, `beta`, and `main`) and includes comments for better understanding. ### Configuration Migration: * Modified `migrateConfig` in `LyttleTab.java` to handle migration from `config_version` 0 to 1 by transferring the `tab_list_refresh_interval` value from the default configuration to the main configuration. * Updated `src/main/resources/#defaults/config.yml` and `src/main/resources/config.yml` to set `config_version` to 1, indicating the migration is complete. ### New Feature - Tab List Refresh: * Added a new configuration option `tab_list_refresh_interval` in `tab.yml` to specify the interval for refreshing the tab list. * Updated `TabHandler.java` to schedule periodic tab list refreshes using the interval defined in the configuration. * Simplified the `refreshTabList` method to use a lambda expression for better readability. ### Plugin Version Update: * Incremented the plugin version in `gradle.properties` from `1.0.0` to `1.0.1` to reflect the new changes.
