Java Bukkit/Spigot per player configuration files -

i've been working on bukkit/spigot plugin uses separate configuration files, research done , many tests of other peoples' answers, have not found solution wants work me. have tried minecraft 1 player per config , adapted needs didn't work. here's have:

private final string name; private fileconfiguration config = null; private final plugin plugin;  public files(plugin plugin, string name) {     this.name = name;     this.plugin = plugin;     config = yamlconfiguration.loadconfiguration(new file(name)); }  public void create() {     cfile = new file(plugin.getdatafolder() + file.separator + path, name + ".yml");     if (!plugin.getdatafolder().exists()) plugin.getdatafolder().mkdir();     if (!cfile.exists()) {         try {             cfile.createnewfile();         } catch (ioexception ex) {             ex.printstacktrace();         }     }     config = yamlconfiguration.loadconfiguration(cfile); }  ... set, get, etc methods 

if try instantiate with

 files f = new files(plugin, "config"); 

i end errors when trying get/set/etc or end no errors nor results. able give me hand this? appreciated.

let's start @ beginning:

config = yamlconfiguration.loadconfiguration(new file(name)); 

this tries load configuration without extension bukkit main folder - not plugin folder. if want create configuration later on, should leave config null value.

cfile = new file(plugin.getdatafolder() + file.separator + path, name + ".yml"); if (!plugin.getdatafolder().exists()) plugin.getdatafolder().mkdir(); 

you have created file datafolder additional folder path variable. didn't have created folder inside datafolder. suggest:

file cfgfolder = new file(plugin.getdatafolder(), path); cfgfolder.mkdirs(); cfile = new file(cfgfolder, name + ".yml"); 

your missing results caused not saving configuration disk:

config.save(cfile);
