Languages are used everywhere in the API, for chat messages, GUIs (including Buttons).

They are loaded from your YourPlugin/lang folder.

You can register as many Languages as you want.
But there can only be two languages active simultaneously.

There are two kinds of active Languages:

  • Active Language: Used as the main language. All keys are looked up in it first.
  • Fallback Language: Used as a fallback for when keys are not available in the Active Language.

Simply export the resource from the jar to the /lang folder.
Then you can create the Language object.

Example:

import me.wolfyscript.utilities.api.language.Language;
import me.wolfyscript.utilities.api.language.LanguageAPI;

public class YourPlugin extends JavaPlugin {
    
    public void loadLang(){
        //Save the language file resource to the plugin folder.
        saveResource("lang/en_US.json", true);
        //Get the LanguageAPI of the api
        LanguageAPI languageAPI = this.api.getLanguageAPI();
        //Create the language
        Language fallBackLanguage = new Language(this, "en_US");
        //Register the language. The first registered language will be automatically be used as the fallback and active language.
        languageAPI.registerLanguage(fallBackLanguage);
        
        
        //- Optionally load another active language. -
        saveResource("lang/de_DE.json", true);
        //Optionally you can register another active language.
        Language language = new Language(this, "de_DE");
        languageAPI.registerLanguage(language);
        //Just requires to set the active language manually.
        languageAPI.setActiveLanguage(language);
    }
    
}
