This is the interface that the library uses as bridge for all the pre-defined version adapters, and also, for the custom version adapters.
Any interface or inheritor instance requires a generic type for processing, this is used to adapt the interface for usage with legacy strings, and modern components used with modern Paper versions for more customizable formats. The interface counts with methods to send titles, action-bars and boss-bars, and make modifications to player's tab-list, including changes for the header and footer.
A very basic example using the adapter methods, check it out here. Let's go to check description and functionality of methods available on the VersionAdapterModel.
This method execution will send packets with the titles information to the player's client.
/**
* Sends a packet to the player for the titles send.
*
* @param player the player to who send the packet.
* @param title the text for the title, could be null
* for no title send.
* @param subtitle the text for the subtitle, could be
* null for no subtitle send.
* @param fadeIn Amount of time for fully title appear.
* @param stay Total time for title stay on screen.
* @param fadeOut Amount of time for fully title disappear.
* @since 1.0.0
*/
void sendPacketForTitle(final @NotNull Player player, final @Nullable T title, final @Nullable T subtitle,
final int fadeIn, final int stay, final int fadeOut);This method execution will send a packet with the action-bar information to the player's client.
/**
* Sends a packet to the player for the single subtitle send.
*
* @param player the player to who send the packet.
* @param text the text for the subtitle.
* @since 1.0.0
*/
void sendPacketForActionBar(final @NotNull Player player, final @NotNull T text);This method execution will send a packet with the header and footer information for the tab-list, to the player's client.
/**

* modification.

* @param player the player to who send the packet.
* @param header the text for the header, could be null
