    dependencies = {
        @Dependency(id = "vanishbridge", optional = true)
    }

public class VelocityExample
{
    // Make sure to add this to your plugin class if you declared VanishBridge as optional
    public boolean isVanishBridgeInstalled() 
    {
        return proxyServer.getPluginManager().isLoaded("vanishbridge");
    }
	
    // Now you can use VanishBridge
    public void example()

import dev.loapu.vanishbridge.api.model.VanishBridgePlayer;
import dev.loapu.vanishbridge.api.VanishBridgeProvider;
