Getting Started
Overview
This method involves manually constructing JSON objects using a JSON library (e.g., Gson) and then converting these objects into byte arrays for transmission. It allows for dynamic and programmatic construction of JSON objects, offering flexibility in modifying the JSON structure. Available fields for each message, including their types, are available on the Buf Schema Registry at https://buf.build/lunarclient/apollo (opens in a new tab).
While constructing messages, note that the @type field isn't required if the message is being sent within a message.
Note that this method uses a different plugin channel for sending packets,
which is apollo:json, while still using the lunar:apollo for player detection.
