Bootstrap improvement

[Valgrifer]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Lack of function in the context of bootstrap and event. in the case of generating a resource pack linked with a datapack

Describe the solution you'd like.

An event or function that would be triggered after all the "bootstrap" functions of all plugins and before the server launch.
Access to the ClassLoader to have the resources from the bootstrap.
And access to the config simply

Describe alternatives you've considered.

I find that these are the minimum features to manage resources before launching the server and which will be useful in the future when we can add all types of data-driven content from the bootstrap.

No doubt there is functionality missing.

Can you expand on why you want these specific things? Like what is the xy here?

An event or function that would be triggered after all the "bootstrap" functions of all plugins and before the server launch.

What happens during the bootstrap that you have to wait until after?

Access to the ClassLoader to have the resources from the bootstrap.

which classloader? You can easily get the classloader for any class with WhateverClass.class.getClassLoader()

And access to the config simply

The config found in the plugin jar? You can also read that yourself using available methods to get resources, just like one would with any custom configuration file in normal plugin operations. Or are you talking about some other config?

In my case, gather all the resources requested by other plugins to generate (if necessary) a resource pack to distribute to players afterwards

The ClassLoader that we find in JavaPlugin with getClassLoader(), I am so used to using this method that I had forgotten this way of doing it

The plugin config in plugins/MyPlugin/config.yml and the server config found in Server.Spigot

Why can't you do this in onEnable? The players still won't be on the server until then so you can generate the resource pack and use it when the players will join

The plugin config in plugins/MyPlugin/config.yml and the server config found in Server.Spigot

For your config just 'YamlConfiguration.loadConfiguration(context.getDataDirectory().resolve("config.yml").toFile())', server config may depend in future on registry values, which are available only post bootstrap, so I don't think it's a good idea to expose them.
