DartPages

DartPages is a lightweight, high-performance, and maintainable interactive book system for Minecraft Spigot servers (supporting 1.18.2 through 26.2+).

It enables administrators and players to create interactive written books featuring clickable links, commands, rich colors, formatting, and PlaceholderAPI placeholders through an intuitive chat composer or human-readable YAML files.

Features

• 📝 Chat-Based Book Composer: Hold a Book and Quill (Material.WRITABLE_BOOK), type /dpages, and enter text line by line directly in chat.
• 🔗 Clickable URLs: Markdown syntax Label opens web links in the player's browser with safety checks.
• ⚡ Clickable Commands: Markdown syntax [Label](/command) executes commands directly as the player upon clicking.
• 🎨 Full Color & Formatting: Full support for legacy & color codes, formatting combinations (&c&l[Text](/spawn)), and Hex colors (&#RRGGBB or <#RRGGBB>).
• 🔄 PlaceholderAPI Integration: Dynamic placeholders (%player_name%, %statistic_deaths%, etc.) stored literally in YAML and resolved in real-time when the book is read/rendered.
• 📄 Smart Page Wrapping: Automatic calculation of physical Minecraft book page boundaries without truncating text or corrupting Unicode characters.
• 🌍 Multi-Language Support: Fully localized out of the box in English (en_US), Russian (ru_RU), Spanish (es_ES), and Chinese (zh_CN).
• 🛡️ Zero Bloat & Secure: No external databases, no NMS dependencies, no packet libraries, and configurable URL scheme/command security rules.
