Version-independent names

Bukkit renamed materials, sounds, particles, potions and enchantments many times between 1.8 and 26.x. EranoAPI has one enum per area with every value of the newest Minecraft by its newest name; on each server it resolves to what that server calls it.

Enum	What changed	On old servers
EranoMaterial	1.13 flattening, 14 renames after	1.8 - 1.12: old name + data value (RED_WOOL → WOOL:14)
EranoSound	Renamed in 1.9 and 1.13; an interface since 1.21.2	ENTITY_PLAYER_LEVELUP → LEVEL_UP on 1.8
EranoParticle	No API on 1.8, renamed in 1.20.5	1.8: EranoAPI sends the packet
EranoEffect	World effects added over time	tells which server has which
EranoPotionEffect	Renamed in 1.20.5	STRENGTH → INCREASE_DAMAGE
EranoPotionType	Potion items differ in 1.8, 1.9, 1.20.2	data value, PotionData or the type
EranoEnchantment	Keys in 1.13, renamed in 1.20.5	SHARPNESS → DAMAGE_ALL

Common methods

EranoX.NAME.parseX();          // the server's value, null when it doesn't have it
EranoX.NAME.isSupported();
EranoX.match("old_name");      // today's name, older names, minecraft: keys; case-insensitive
EranoX.of(serverValue);        // back to the constant

Materials

ItemStack wool = EranoMaterial.RED_WOOL.parseItem(16);
EranoMaterial.match("WOOL:14");                 // also "minecraft:red_wool", "WOOD_SWORD", "A|B"
EranoMaterial kind = EranoMaterial.of(player.getItemInHand());   // data value included on 1.8
EranoMaterial.GRANITE.setType(block);           // STONE:1 on 1.8

Sounds

EranoSound.ENTITY_PLAYER_LEVELUP.play(player, 1f, 1f);       // to one player
EranoSound.ENTITY_GENERIC_EXPLODE.play(location, 1f, 1f);    // to everyone nearby

Sounds Minecraft renamed are matched by the sound files Mojang plays, so BLOCK_NOTE_BLOCK_PLING on 1.8 is exactly 1.8's NOTE_PLING.

Particles

EranoParticle.HAPPY_VILLAGER.spawn(location, 10, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0);
EranoParticle.DUST.spawn(location, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, Color.AQUA);                  // colored dust, 1.8 too
EranoParticle.BLOCK.spawn(location, 30, 0.3, 0.3, 0.3, 0, EranoMaterial.RED_WOOL);
EranoEffect.STEP_SOUND.play(location, Material.STONE);

Data is given the same way on every version and converted: a Color, a Material, an EranoMaterial or an ItemStack; or the server's own type (BlockData, DustOptions).

Potions and enchantments

EranoPotionEffect.STRENGTH.apply(player, 200, 1);       // Strength II, 10 s
ItemStack potion = EranoPotionType.LONG_SWIFTNESS.parseItem(EranoPotionType.Form.SPLASH, 1);
EranoEnchantment.SHARPNESS.enchant(sword, 2);

Reference tables

Every value, when it came and what it was called, generated from Spigot's and Mojang's data: Material.md, Sound.md, Particle.md, Potion.md, Enchantment.md.
