Suggestion: Alternate database save methods #25

Closed JadenDevon closed 4 years ago

Could you make it so that the chunkloader database is saved as either a .db file or a .yml so that mySQL is not required?

KasperFranz commented 6 years ago

I haven't seen any good use cases where you would like it to be a SQLite database.

I don't have any plans on adding support for a yml based system.

Can you share in which use case you would use SQLite database?

Specifically in my case, when I first got the plugin, I had to ask my community founder to get access to a mySQL server. Then, the box that the database was on was shut down without my knowledge (which goes back to the issue that I had at that one point with an updated version of BCL). Then I had to wait a week while the community manager got in touch with our founder to get a new database set up. We lost the whole database and it could have been avoided if the file was stored locally in the MC server files.

That is now in develop and will be part of 3.9
