Plugin Authors: How to hook into Permissions​

Due to @TheYeti being busy in RL for now, I have created a new thread for Permissions 3.x. TheYeti is still part of the Permissions team.​

Permissions... Reborn.

This is a continuation of the work that was originally done by Nijikokun. All original credit goes to them as without their work this plugin would not have been possible. This plugin does not provide any commands or additional functionality beyond what is described in this post. That means that you need another plugin to provide colored names, chat prefixes, and op commands such as /give and /time.​

The Permissions Team​

The team consists of myself @rcjrrjcr and @TheYeti currently with contributions from @Nijikokun as well on occasion. There are also several other members of the community who frequently assist with providing code changes, bug fixes, patches, support, feedback, and beta testing. Special thanks to @flames and the Dynmap & Wormhole X-Treme teams for the hosting of Permissions on their Jenkins server.​

What's new in 3.x?

Taken from the GitHub page:

1. In-game commands. For a long time, users have been pestering, nagging, demanding and/or screaming for an way to manage Permissions via commands. Now, in 3.0, in-game commands are available to manage permissions and groups.
2. SQL storage. This allows web interfaces to manage Permissions by updating the SQL database Permissions uses.
3. Promotion/demotion tracks. With a simple command, users can be promoted/demoted along a preconfigured track, allowing RP servers with ranks to promote the player along a class track and other possibilities.
4. Multigroup.
5. Weightage. Plugins are able to compare users via their weight, which is inherited from their groups. For example, SlapPlugin can check if Player A is higher-weighted than Player B when A tries to slap B (Not IRL, obviously).
6. Improved world mirroring. Config files are now split into a group file and a user file. Also, by editing storageconfig.yml, you can configure the mirroring of entire worlds, or just its users/groups. You also do not have to create files for worlds that mirror another world. Also, two different worlds can use different storage types, like YAML and SQL.
7. Global permissions. Instead of having to resort to cross-world group inheritance, now all worlds inherit groups and users from the global permissions file. Also, the inherited groups/users can be overridden via editing the specific world's file.

Upgrading from 2.x to 3.x

I have written a guide on GitHub. This demonstrates how to convert 2.x-style configs to 3.0. The YAML-to-SQL converter are still in testing, but it can be downloaded from here. It's written in Perl. @Zgred has created a web version of the script located here. @omgneeq is working on an Web UI for SQL databases (Sorry about the previous statement that he was making a converter.)​

For the admins

In case you missed the link above, the Setup Guide on GitHub will help you quite a bit

Samkio has updated his tutorial for P3:


First thing that you will need to do is download the plugin. Place it in your plugins/ folder and unzip it. This should create the folder Permissions and a Permissions.jar file in your plugins folder. Next, go into Permissions/ and create a folder named the same as your world. So if your world name from server.properties is Foo you will need to create the folder plugins/Permissions/Foo. You MUST rename it to whatever your world's name is or it will not work.

Note, if you have your server maps all saved into a single directory then the initial setup will be somewhat different. Say your maps are arranged in the main directory like so: bukkit/mapfolder/world1, bukkit/mapfolder/world2, etc. Then inside of the plugin/Permissions directory you will need to create a folder called mapfolder and inside of that put the directories containing users.yml and groups.yml in there.

Next, you will need to go in and add yourself to the users, just replace the user that is in there with your name. Make any other modifications that you need to. While making modifications make sure that you do NOT use tabs. These will break the YAML format and cause issues. Instead, each indent should be four spaces. If you want people who aren't in the Admin group to be able to reload the permissions plugin you need to give them 'permissions.reload' permissions within the config file.

Permissions gives server admins great control, mostly in-game reloading. More info about commands can be found here.

FAQ (open) FAQ (close)

[FAQ]

[Q] What is with the version numbers? I can't keep up, it seems like every time I look there is a new version!
[A] I use the GNU versioning system for my version numbers. So what this means is the version number should be read as Major.Minor.Revision. So for version 2.5.2 this would mean it is the 2nd Major version, the 5th Minor release in this version, and the 2nd revision. I tend to release bug fixes and anything that doesn't add functionality or will not break things as revisions. So generally you should be safe with just watching the major & minor numbers and only getting the revision if it fixes a bug specific to you. Technically 2.5.2 should have been released as 2.6 as it did add functionality, but this was below even a minor change so I released it as a revision.

[Q] I am getting an error that it can't pass BLOCK_PLACED or BLOCK _BREAK events to Permissions. Fix it!
[A] That's not a question. The reason why it can't place these is probably because the syntax of your Permissions file is all whacked out, or it is a different world and you don't have a config file for that world.

[Q] What am I suppose to name the config file?
[A] You need to name it the same as your world. So if you look in server.properties at "level-name" you will see a world name there. Rename your config file to the same thing as that. Make sure you keep the .yml extension at the end.

[Q] Permissions are broken. Why can no one use commands? Why am I not an admin?
[A] First off, make sure that your formatting is correct. Look at the format that the default config file uses. Yours should look like that. Do NOT use tabs. Use 4 spaces (IE. " " <-- Four of those things.). Also, whichever group you give the permission '*' to, do not have that group inherit permissions from anyone else. That is called overloading and it will break things. Also, this.


[Q] Which one am I suppose to download and unzip to install this?
[A] Download the main package, not the JAR only. Unzip the ZIP file. The JAR only downloads are simply there for people who are UPGRADING and do not need the default config file.

[Q] I have done all of this and this doesn't work! I'm going back to GroupManager!
[A] Well, there is probably the problem. Make sure that you delete EssentialsGroupManager.jar and EssentialsGroupBridge.jar as these don't play well with Permissions and will cause headache.

[Q] When are you going to add <blah> <feature/command> into this already? You suck! Do what I want NAU PL0X!
[A] Feature requests should be posted on the GitHub tracker. Stupid suggestions like adding teleportation functionality and other less ludicrous stuff will be rejected.

TheYeti:

Nijikokun - Without their original work this plugin would not be possible.​

All of the members of the community that regularly provide support in this thread for Permissions​

Rigby, Kainzo, DThielke, GoMySQL, sk89q, RightLegRed - For hanging out with me in IRC, tons of testing, and pushing me to improve on the code constantly and make changes to make this plugin constantly better and better, and in general being entertaining.​

Everyone else on here and in IRC who provides support, feedback, assistance, plugins that have continued to support and integrate this, and in general makes my life a bit easier, THANK YOU!​

rcjrrjcr:

I would like to thank Joy , jamesg and omgneeq for staying in #permissions for long periods of time to test out 3.0, and help me find many coding mistakes I made, patiently waiting for the next build while I fixed the bugs. I appreciate SvenBrnn 's and GoMySQL(Geoff Winans on this forum) 's help that allow me to design and code the SQL interface, and the HeroCraft coding team for providing support and some priceless IRC quotes (Dgco). Also, I would like to thank Lycano for helping me in many different aspects. Last but not least, I would like to thank Nijikokun and TheYeti for developing P2, which was one of my core plugins when I was still a 14-year-old server admin that didn't understand Java, and was the base for 3.0. Without these people, 3.0 would never be possible.​

If after reading through all of that you are still having issues do one of two things. If it is a provable bug, and you have things like screenshots or copies of startup, steps to reproduce, your craftbukkit build and the version this is running along with your config files then submit the bug on the issue tracker. If it is general help or support you are needing then post a reply to this thread and someone will try to help you.

Old thread: Permissions v2.7.4

 

you're sending 3 params to a method that takes 2 params. (Player, String, Boolean) to a (Player, String) method. get rid of the ", false" at the end of the .has() call.

blank is the same thing as null I'm pretty sure.
2 of my groups:

Code:

    Co-Owner:
        default: false
        permissions:
            - '*'
        inheritance:
        info:
            prefix: '&6'
            build: true
            suffix: ''
    Owner:
        default: false
        permissions:
            - '*'
        inheritance:
        info:
            prefix: '&6'
            build: true
            suffix: ''

This is the problem I've been having, are there any solutions? I didn't have this problem before I moved hosts.
Config files are all the same as before when they worked.
http://oi54.tinypic.com/k9sxax.jpg

 

you have 2 "default: true" groups, make one of them not default. Although, that alone I don't think would fix your issue.

 

set the inheritance fro default group to null

 

First, that isn't a Permissions message. It comes from AdminCmd. Second, your own screenshot shows that you are actually in the default group of which you have 2. I'm guessing it picked the first one. You should only have one group marked as default: true. You need to verify which group you are currently in using a chat plugin if you have one or some other means. Or, post your server.log as well as a zipped up copy of your plugins\permissions directory.

 

Has anybody made a mySQL web UI yet for permissions? i still don't understand how to setup the mySQL permissions, if i did i would create a UI myself.

interesting, mine has always set itself to null so i assumed it needed to be there

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

WelcomeMessage has that message set as "Default" by default I believe, and using a chat plugin it doesn't show that anyone is in a group. I tried one account and the admin account and it just says "[g]" Also, to change the default:true thing can I just delete the first one or can I rename "default"?

 

I've never used WelcomeMessage before but I loaded it on my test server and it looks like it allows you to display a message based on what group a user belongs to.

Code:

message:
    Default: Hallo {player} in default group
    Admins: Hallo {player} in Admin group
    Owner: Hallo {player} in Admin group
welcome: 'true'

So the only way you would see the "Default" message is if you were in the Default group.

 

ok does anyone see anything wrong with these groups. The permissions should be working right? becuase when i run the server it isn't letting anyone do anything, like not even build.

Code:

groups:
    User:
        default: true
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''

        - iConomy.admin.bank.remove
        - iConomy.admin.bank.set

 

I made a 'Member" section just to see what would happen and the same thing happened, so I'm guessing its the config in permissions. But in the users config I even have the player in the Member group, yet I still can't use any of the permissions.

 

Which is why I asked you to post a zipped up copy of your plugins\permissions directory and your server.log.

 

@Jeyge There you go. This is the one I found, hope it would be sufficient enough.

 

Hey i have a problem, my config looks like this

Code:

##
# Permissions has AntiBuild, which prevents a player from destroying/placing blocks.
# To prevent a group of players then set the build: flag to false (build: false).
# If you want a group to be able to build then set it to true.
##
# Groups can inherit from other groups.
#   To make a group inherit the permissions and info nodes from another
#   group, simply place the groups name in the "inheritance:" like so:
#
#   Example:
#       inheritance:
#           - Default
##
#   Wildcard Permission settings:
#
#       You can have wildcard nodes which encompass all nodes that match it.
#       For example, the node "modplugin.*" matches "modplugin.kick", "modplugin.ban",
#       "modplugin.settings.view", and so on.
#
##
#   A single asterisk means that this user/group has all permissions.
#       - '*'
##
#   Negated nodes are created by prefixing a normal node with "-".
#   They prevent less specific wildcard nodes from matching the negated node.
#   For example:
#
#   permissions:
#       - 'foo.*'
#       - '-foo.bar'
#
#   In this case, the user/group will have "foo.foo", "foo.foobar", and so on, but not "foo.bar".
#
##
#   prefix: and suffix: do not do anything on their own.  You need another outside plugin
#   such as iChat or HeroChat in order for these to do anything.
##
#

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

and anyone in the default group can do anything besides place blocks. I want them to beable to do NOTHING. whats my problem? Thanks in advance!

 

I apologize if this has already been asked/answered but...
Okay so I want to use Permissions 3, and I have build 1000 which has built-in Permissions, what do I do, when I try to use Permissions 3 it doesn't work...somehow do I have to disable the built-in Permissions, I'm so confused, looking for some help please.

 

I cant figure out why I cant remove permissions from a player. Can you tell me what i'm doing wrong? This server is private BTW.
The server log groups and users yml are there and a list of plugins i run.
I use the same global groups and users files for all of my worlds.

 

You aren't running Permissions or at least if you are, it isn't showing up in your server.log.

First, you set the default group to Admins. Second, if you assigned anyone to Default, they would be in the Admins group because your "default" group is actually DEfault. The uppercase E does make a difference. And finally, don't try to remove permissions you didn't give someone. It can cause the opposite to happen so you need to remove the "- '-*'".

You shouldn't have disable anything so if you are getting some errors with Permissions, post those and someone will be able to help.

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

I did set them to DEfault but i will try what you said.

It did not work

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Everything should work once you remove the space before and after your quotes. It should look like:

Code:

        - '-essentials.god.*'
        - '-essentials.ban.exempt'
        - '-essentials.ban'
        - '-essentials.banip'
        - '-essentials.tempban.exempt'
        - '-essentials.tempban'
        - '-essentials.togglejail'
        - '-essentials.warp.otherplayers'
        - '-worldedit.anyblock'

and not:

Code:

        - ' -essentials.god.* '
        - ' -essentials.ban.exempt '
        - ' -essentials.ban '
        - ' -essentials.banip '
        - ' -essentials.tempban.exempt '
        - ' -essentials.tempban '
        - ' -essentials.togglejail '
        - ' -essentials.warp.otherplayers '
        - ' -worldedit.anyblock '

Post the new files and include your users.yml file.

And with the exception of the duplicate users: tag at the top, that is exactly what you want to see. BTW - I don't believe you can remove wildcards so -essentials.god.* probably won't work.

Your new files should give you an error because your e is outside the quotes on the prefix in the group Admins and if you aren't getting that error, your files are in the wrong place or you aren't running Permissions. You also still have Admins set as default.

 

in your "User:" group, the top of your permission nodes says "Permissions:". it should say "permissions:"
yes, yml is that picky

 

this makes the users.yml change to

Code:

users:

    Fred__Fuchs:
        groups:
        - Admins
        permissions:

            prefix: '&c[&aEditor Of Worlds&c] &f'
            sufix: ''
        groups:
        - Admins
        permissions:
        - -essentials.god.*
    Exe_arco:
        groups:
        - Admins
        permissions:
        - -essentials.god.*
        - -essentials.ban.exempt
        - -essentials.ban
        - -essentials.banip
        - -essentials.tempban.exempt
        - -essentials.tempban
        - -essentials.togglejail
        - -essentials.warp.otherplayers
        - -worldedit.anyblock

 

that's normal I believe, as long as it works you should be good to go, otherwise post any new errors you're getting

 

Essentinals is reporting its using permissions. so i dont know what the deal is.

 

That doesn't confirm or deny a problem with Permissions. Post your server.log and a zipped up copy of your plugins\permissions directory if you really feel as though it should work as it is.

In that case, we will need to get some more information. Who is it that can use what command from what plugin? Also, I'm not sure what trying to do this in the global files will do so move all of your global information to your main worlds groups.yml and users.yml files and see if it works there.

The error you posted doesn't match the files you posted. The error says that you have a missing closing quote or multiple missing closing quotes starting on or around line 101:

Code:

05.08 16:59:32 [Server] INFO                ^
05.08 16:59:32 [Server] INFO             - 'signColours.*
05.08 16:59:32 [Server] INFO  in "<reader>", line 101, column 12:
05.08 16:59:32 [Server] INFO expected <block end>, but found Scalar

but the file you posted only has 93 lines and does not even have a permission of signColours.*. If you have other files you didn't post, then take a look for missing closing quotes.

 

crap just accidentally deleted the server *FACEPALM*

 

the permissions still don't get removed. there are no weird errors in the log i don't know the problem BTW the double users: was a posting error it isn't there in the files

 

Yeah, I accidentally posted one of the wrong files, but I got it working now, I realized those quotes were missing and fixed it up, thanks for the help, much appreciated.
Good luck to everyone else with their problems
