File information cannot be retrieved for projects on BukkitDev

[TheKinrar]

I'm trying to list files for a Curse project but I get an empty set.

CurseAPI.files(id).get().size() returns 0 but CurseAPI.project(id).get().name() returns the right project name - in my testing case WorldEdit (with id = 31043).

Sorry if I'm doing something wrong.

This is an issue on CurseForge's end; they're not providing any information for WorldEdit's files. Unfortunately, there's not much I can do about this.

Oh, okay. Is that a common issue? Thanks for the quick reply. :)

This is the first time I've seen this, but it might depend on the project type.

Just looked into it and it seems that all BukkitDev plugins return no files info; maybe because as they are plugins they are not meant to be installed by the Twitch app.

Great library anyway and thanks for the help :)

Yeah, that's a shame. Thank you!

I just posted this on the Twitch feedback forum to hopefully get someone to look at this!

Pretty sure the API is only meant for use by the launcher, so I doubt anything will be done.

Closing because this will likely never be fixed.
