I am a spigot plugin developer. I want to link patreon with the ranks on my Minecraft server. I have an idea of how I could do this, but have no idea how the patreon API works and if it would be possible for this purpose. After someone subscribes to my patreon I would like some way of getting their Minecraft uuid. (A unique Id that each Minecraft account has) To do this I would need the patreon subscriber to input their playername, and this be sent to my java plugin through an event, along with a unique code for their patreon account. I can then use spigot to get the players uuid based on their name, and give them a rank. I would then need another event to trigger when that person unsubscribes, and again I would be able to recognise it’s the same account, and I could get their Minecraft uuid from my database and then remove their rank. How could I do this? ---

Having a custom integration with a db to keep track of your patrons would help. Ie, any setup - can be LAMP, Python, whatever. Using that, you could have patrons authorize your integration and give you the input you need. Then the integration can modify the Minecraft server’s db. ---

Did you ever achieve this? This is exactly what I’ve been looking for and struggling to find.
