Migration

Automatic Data Migration

• Plugin automatically migrates settings from the now legacy folder CraftAttackSpawnElytra
• Migration is triggered when the old plugin folder is detected on startup
• Existing configuration data is migrated and backed up to plugins/SpawnElytra/backups/<timestamp>
• Language files are not migrated due to completely different formatting (MiniMessage vs legacy)
  • Old language files are preserved in the backup folder if needed

Important Note
This plugin checks for the CraftAttackSpawnElytra directory on startup. If files are found, they are moved to SpawnElytra and backed up. To prevent this behavior, add prevent-spawnelytra-from-migrating: true to config.yml before starting the server.

Changed

• Maven Artifact: craftattackspawnelytra → spawnelytra

  • integration - Third-party integrations (PlaceholderAPI)
  • listener - Event listeners (core elytra mechanics)
  • setup - Setup wizard and session management
  • util - Utility classes (messaging, scheduling, backups, updates)
