So, I'm attempting to create a plugin but the plugin I'm making uses its own world gen system so I need to delete the world file but everytime I do that the file recreates does anyone know how I can stop this from happening?

What you are looking for is Dynmap. We have it on our server to provide multiple features such as:
The current version of Dynmap provides an in-browser map, like Google Maps, of your Minecraft world. It updates the map in realtime while you have your browser opened and shows the current players, regions and in-game messages on top of the map. It also allows viewers of the map to chat from within their browser with players in-game.
This mod does show in game realtime on the server. See here for more more details, download URL, and installation instructions.
The file won't regenerate unless you update Minecraft, and needs to be removed only once for a given version. (If Minecraft has an update and you pick "yes" when it asks if you want to update, it'll reinstall a fresh, new copy of the game, with a brand-new META-INF file and none of your mods.)
The META-INF file is a code signing file. Removing it is necessary if you mod Minecraft because the game will no longer match the code signature, and therefore won't start. Removing it prevents the game from checking if it matches, so then it runs fine.

First stop your server, then go to your server files and delete the folder with the name "world" and then put whatever plugin you want in the plugins folder and then restart the server. It should work in that way, and also when you start the server, the server will automatically generate a world. I don't know much about plugins, but if your plugin uses a world gen system (something like mutiworld) then it will need a world to start with. A server cannot be started without a world create and you will not be able to use the in game plugin commands without the server started.
I hope this helped, if not then sorry.
