🛠️ Examples

Run a task immediately on the main thread

taskUtil.run(() -> {
    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("This runs instantly!");
});

---

Run a task once after 1 minute

taskUtil.runLater(() -> {
    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("1 minute has passed!");
}, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0);

---

Run a task once after 2 days and 5 seconds

taskUtil.runLater(() -> {
    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("2 days and 5 seconds later...");
}, 2, 0, 0, 5, 0);

---

Run a repeating task: start after 10 seconds, repeat every 5 seconds

taskUtil.runTimer(() -> {
    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("Repeating every 5 seconds!");
}, 0, 0, 0, 10, 0,
   0, 0, 0, 5, 0);

---

Run a repeating task: start after 1 hour, repeat every 1 day

}, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0,
   1, 0, 0, 0, 0);

✅ Best Practices

• Use run() for instant execution on the main thread.
• Use runLater() for delayed single runs.
• Use runTimer() for scheduled repeating tasks.
• Always initialize TaskUtil with your plugin’s main class (JavaPlugin instance).
