ShopChest is a command based chest shop plugin. Buying and selling is done simply by clicking the chest. A hologram above it displays all sorts of information about the shop. Due to the large amount of possible customization, this plugin can fit every server.

Why ShopChest?

• Very simple shop interaction and creation
• No struggle with complex attributes or flags, it just copies the item in your hand
• Visually pleasing with hologram and floating item
• Shops are protected from explosions and hoppers
• Floating items are protected from water, lava, pistons, zombies, getting picked up, despawning and ClearLag (and similar)
• Supports almost every protection plugin available including WorldGuard, Towny, PlotSquared, etc.
• Everything is translatable
• Support for MySQL and SQLite including logging capabilities
• Vault integration for economy and permissions
• Extensive list of configurable options

Installation

• Download the latest stable version of this plugin, or get a possibly unstable development build with the latest feature set here
• Put the downloaded file into your server's plugins folder
• Install the latest version of Vault
• Install an economy plugin that hooks into Vault (e.g. Essentials, AConomy, SaneEconomy, etc.)
• After starting the server, a folder called ShopChest is created in the plugins folder, containing the configuration files and shop database

Usage

A complete guide on how to use the plugin's features can be found here.

• By default, a player can buy from a shop by right-clicking the chest, and sell to a shop by left-clicking the chest.
  • When the player is sneaking while clicking the chest, a stack of the product is bought or sold at once.
• A player can create a shop by entering the command /shop create <amount> <buy-price> <sell-price> and clicking a chest they are permitted to create a shop on. Usually, that is any chest they can open.
  • The item that the player is holding in their hand will become the product of the shop
  • <amount> is the amount of items that can be bought or sold at once
  • <buy-price> is the price, a player pays for buying the product from the shop
  • <sell-price> is the price, the vendor pays for buying the product from the player
• A player can remove a shop by entering the command /shop remove and clicking one of their shops.
• A player can retrieve more information about a shop by entering /shop info and clicking a shop, or by clicking a shop with the configured shop info item (a stick by default)

Configuration

Information about the plugin's customization possibilities can be found in the configuration documentation.
