Allow `/nickcolor #facade` as `/nickcolor <#facade>`
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Soooo many people are confused about /nickcolor needing the angle brackets (<>) for the command
Describe the solution you'd like
Interpret #rrggbb as <#rrggbb> and red as <red>
Describe alternatives you've considered The only other way that could benefit users would be to give a more helpful error message that is not just "You may only includes color codes."
Potential Implementation
Check if the argument has <> and add them if it doesn't before it's parsed, this would be a bit of a dirty implementation, but it would work well, and shouldn't break anything else.
Basically, we take this
https://github.com/MajekDev/HexNicks/blob/2afbedc673b8ff28500a2953ac35745d5db5bbc3/src/main/java/dev/majek/hexnicks/command/CommandNickColor.java#L58-L60
and add
if (!nickInput.startsWith("<") && !nickInput.endsWith(">")) {
nickInput = '<' + nickInput + '>';
}
If there is a concern about that failing, then we could put the "corrected" version in a new variable and use the old one if the colour code is detected to be wrong.
I'd be happy to open a PR with these changes, if feature is desired.
Love the idea!
Because of the legacy format, I think the best way of doing this would be to try to parse what they originally wrote, and if that fails then try to parse it by adding <> around it.
Oh yeah, I forgot about legacy :disappointed:. Doing the original first should work, that would also catch edge cases where the player's username is a colour.
