Plugin Authors: How to hook into Permissions​

Permissions 2.x is being discontinued! 3.0 can be found HERE!!!


I am discontinuing Permissions 2.x and leaving the project. Permissions is not going away though! Since 2.6 I have been working closely with another developer and added them to the team. For the past several version they have not only been assisting with 2.x but also doing a lot of the development of much anticipated 3.x. rcjrrjcr will be taking over as lead developer of Permissions from 3.x forward. I have full faith in them and after working closely with them on the development on the last few version and the next major version I feel that I am leaving this project in more than capable hands. I put way to much work into this project to just leave it with anyone, and this is one of the few programs that I am incredibly proud of.

Many people will probably wonder why I am leaving again after taking over the project just a few months ago. I could quote drama and headaches, of which there were quite a few with this project. Unfortunately real life happens. Many people already know that I have been having medical issues here lately. Unfortunately while they have gotten better, they have not gone away. This coupled with other real life commitments, going to school full time, and starting up my own company, I am currently in the process of being laid off from work. At this point I have so much stuff going on in my life and am being pulled in so many directions that I am not able to get any work done on anything. This has lead to me missing commitments and letting people down on multiple things.

Permissions is also a very high maintenance plugin that requires a lot of attention and time. Right now I am not able to devote that time and do not feel it is fair for me to try to continue to be the lead developer on it. I had originally thought that adding other members to the team would be helpful, but unfortunately this just lead to frustration for them and myself as I just was not able to commit to the project enough. Hence, 3.0 has been rewritten almost exclusively by rcjrrjcr with minimal contributions by myself.

At this point I will be stepping away from the project to focus more on real life and to try to free up some time for other projects and to work with more individual like the wonderful HeroCraft Coding team to fulfill some commitments that I made to them a long time ago and sadly did not come through on. I feel that this is the best for all involved, both myself and the other Permissions developers, as well as the community who deserve someone who can contribute more time and attention to them and supporting them. I do not want to see Permissions end up like many other plugins with an absentee programmer and just slowly wasting away from a great plugin with a lot of potential to a headache with no support.

I will still be active in the community, just not as much as not in the same way. I'm sure my server will be more than happy to have their head admin back and active again as well.

Thank you and happy gaming.

[/SPOILER]

 

Of course you wouldn't want to give the -'*' to a general player, but to an admin, I can see that. If you don't have two mods that do similar things, it shouldn't conflict, ay? So as long as you're smart with your plugins, it should be safe to give the -'*' permission to admins.

 

Depends if you trust your admins enough to use all commands on every single plugin on the server responsibly and not for personal gain etc and not accidentally wipe everyone's inventory or delete /overwrite a second world or kick everyone at once etc.

We had a system like that but we have found its better to give people including general admins just the commands they need and not any extra ones as most commands wouldn't be used for the day to day running of the server and only used by a couple I'm one server admins when something happens and that we can just op ourselves when needed.

Also allot of our commands conflict.

 

Heh, all the people I play with I know in RL, or I trust enough to not destroy everything XD

Edit: Though, if you don't trust them enough not to destroy everything, why are they admins? :S

 

1.is this the famous ,,Permissions'' everyone is talking about and saying:
,,Oh this may be abused hope it works with Permissions ''
and stuff like that?
Because I heared is really important , and I want to create 5 groups:
( lowest rank to highest )
1. New player
2. Member
3.Trusted member
4.Almost admin
5.admin

2. What I want to do more exactly is to block the use of simpleflight ( plugin ) . Only admins can do that.
Then I want to block building in the spawn radius ( 500 blocks around spawn ) . Only admins could build there.
How exactly could I do that?

 

Unless you have a mod to stop people from building around the spawn area, permissions can't do that on it's own.

Where is this "simpleflight" plugin? Is it this one?
If it is, it doesn't support permissions yet.

 

Really? I was unaware of anything like that, but if it's true, that's very good to know.

If he's using General 2.2, I think it's general.spawn. In General 3.x it's general.spawn.set.

The advantage of having ten lines just to not give general.time is that you know exactly what permissions they have, and you won't get any surprises when you install a new plugin and suddenly everyone has access to that plugin's admin commands.

 

My replies are in bold.

 

Okay I'm getting quite frustrated...
This is how 1 group looks like.

Code:

    Admins:
        default: false
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
            build: true
        inheritance:
        permissions:
            - '*'

This is the users

Code:

users:
    KimAnd:
        group: Admin
        permissions:

But still, while ingame i can't use commands in either wordedit nor worldguard... or anyother mod for that sake

 

Except that I mistyped and set it was general.spawn in General 2.2, when I'm pretty sure it's actually general.setspawn like you said.

 

What does this error means?

Users of my plugin are getting this error and i have no idea what causes it.

 

I need help...i updated my Server to the latest Version but Permissions doesnt work...iChat doesnt work to....

plz help me

 

Ok, me again...
I indented the groups: part and everything below it as told. My new config file:

Code:

plugin:
    permissions:
        system: default
        copies:
    groups:
        God:
            default: false
            info:
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
                build: true
            inheritance:
            permissions:
                - '*'
        Mod:
            default: false
            info:
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
                build: true
            inheritance:
            permissions:
                _ '*'
                - '-worldedit.*'
    users:
        killgoblen:
            group: Mod
            permissions:                          

I now can't use any commands. I think it was working better before...

This is starting to get irritating. At least I have people to help me! Thanks!

 

theres the Problem i think you have to use the "-"so that they is: -'*'

 

Due to how you have the permission setup, the 3 top tiers Admin/Boss/Schnuffi will not work, you're inheriting permissions twice and cancelling it out. Take out any inheritance that the three I listed above, do not give them any permissions other than - '*' also get rid of the - '*' you have by your name, you already gave yourself all the commands, doing it twice = cancellation.

 

Where do i add the users?

 

Oh thanks Alphagun. Didn't realize that!

Grah... typos... >.<

And sefragus129. Out of curiosity, why would you quote the original post? That's irrelevant, but I figured I'd ask.

EDIT: Found out that groups: and everything below should NOT be indented.

 

Borrowing Killgoblen's .yml you do it in the same format below the users: node.

Code:

plugin:
    permissions:
        system: default
        copies:
    groups:
        God:
            default: false
            info:
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
                build: true
        inheritance:
        permissions:
                - '*'
        Mod:
            default: false
            info:
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
                build: true
            inheritance:
            permissions:
                -'*'
    users:
        Your username here:
                group: Exact group name here
                permissions:

Just be sure to get rid of the text and put your stuff where you want it.

Edit: Fixed spacing, rather tried..

 

It would appear that you're trying to check permissions on a null player. :|

 

Ah frick, now I feel stupid XD
Returning the favor, eh?

 

when ever I try to use the server it says could not load permissions.jar in plugins: null
and there is no files in th permissions folder

 

Download the Zip file, go into it, open the folder, and drag Config.yml into the plugins\permissions folder.

 

lol. I'm not alone!

Just thought I'd also add that things like - '*' with - '-worldedit.*' don't seem to work. (Exceptions)

Would it be possible to add this? Thanks!

 

I thought it was added ._.

 

What permission node do I use to allow people to use the /list command to see whos online??

 

601 break permissions i think i get this
