Get offline players

[KaKi87]

Hello,

How can I list offline players ?

Thanks

Hi, actually there is no method getOfflinePlayers but you might GET /player and then sort by online value :

{
"link": "string",
"name": "string",
"online": true,
"uuid": "string"
}

Thanks, but I wouldn't have asked for this if the GET /player endpoint returned both online and offline players... :/

Hi, getting the offline players proved to be pretty hard the last time I tried. But it was quite a while ago when I last tried.
I guess it has something to do with the fact that Minecraft doesn't know about the players until they join for the first time, and after they leave there is only really a player data file left.

Wouldn't it be possible to loop over those data files ?

Theoretically yes, I'm not sure if Sponge has a built-in way to do this. I'm currently rewriting this plugin from scratch to include support for other minecraft API (such as spigot/paper and forge) and I hope to have first draft version out sometime soon. I'll see if I can include an option to list offline players, and add that to the Sponge version as well.

Actually, please prioritize Spigot support 😉
