package com.winterhavenmc.library.messagebuilder.model.recipient
Contains a sealed model hierarchy representing classified message recipients
in a Bukkit-based command or messaging context.
This model is typically used by the message dispatch layer of the library to safely and clearly
manage how messages are sent based on the sender's context.
The Recipient interface
and its nested types allow plugin developers to reason about the type of a CommandSender
at runtime using a type-safe, data-driven approach.
Recipient Categories
Recipient.Valid– A standard, recognized sender such as a player, console, or command blockRecipient.Proxied– AProxiedCommandSenderthat represents a delegated command flowRecipient.Invalid– A null or unsupported sender, accompanied by a reason code
Usage
The factory methodRecipient.of(CommandSender)
is used to classify any incoming CommandSender, and returns a
sealed Recipient subtype appropriate to its role.
Recipient recipient = Recipient.of(sender);
if (recipient instanceof Recipient.Sendable sendable) {
sendable.sender().sendMessage("Welcome!");
}
