    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.

      • Added a change to colorize() to fix it hopefully not adding an extra unneeded ascii character and thus creating a linebreak/color switch issue
      • Removed permissions.info as it was not needed and was a artifact of testing I was doing.

      • Added in AntiBuild functionality to Permissions

      • Added getGroups(world, player) to PermissionHandler so that plugins can call it to get all of a users groups
      • Fixed the inability to use the permissions -reload all command from within the console. I still need to do some more work on this as it doesn't seem to like to accept anything other than all from console.

      • Refactored namespaces to keep in line with Java & Bukkit policy
        • This was cancelled as it ended up being not needed

    Removing tabs in a .yml file using notepad++

    1: from the menu -> search -> replace or use [ctrl +h]
    2: set searchmode to extended (radiobutton)
    3: find what: \t
    4 replace with: insert spaces here
    5: replace all.
    6: no more strange tab related permission errors.

    cheers ...

    So I removed everything down to the default and now it works. Yet when I add new permissions settings now when I remove the tabs notepad++ creates, I now get this error instead:

    Code:

    while parsing a block mapping

    Not sure why people are recommending notepad++, it seems to add all kinds of formatting in the file when you write. :/

    Would you explain in detail what you did and how you got it to work? I have MultiVerse plugin installed. I created world specific .yml file and placed them in Permissions directory, and I boot it up. I still have the privledges from my previous (default) world. It doesn't help when you want Creative world on one, and Survival on another.

    Can someone explain me? With this plugin i can just don't use /op command. So, I can /deop me and use all /kick, /ban options? Or no? Or this works only for plugin commands? I'm fuck up my brain with whis. Help
     
  11. If you are an OP on your server, then that is why it carries over, de-op yourself and it should work, at least it did for me

    You do this.
    EG if you have general plugging, you add -'general.kick' to the group permission.

    Black_Jack

    So, if i /deop me, I cant use ban, kick etc.

    You are overloading. MOD inherits DEFAULT, then ADMIN inherits MOD (and therefore DEFAULT) and then DEFAULT again. This could be why the permissions is breaking down.

    -'permissions.reload' i believe.

    it works well. permissions is only the basis. u need other plugins with a playerlist feature
    --- merged: Mar 7, 2011 3:35 PM ---
    yes but there are plugins that give u these commands

  19. Jandalf, maybe you can answer this, my question got lost in all the yml questions I belive.

    I have a best practice question.

    If I have understood correctly, it’s not a good idea to have multiple inheritance tiers.
    I have an yml where group 2 inherits group 1 and so on, 5 levels down.
    Can you please verify and explain why this is an issue?

    Is it better to only use one inheritance?
    If so do the permissions have to be pasted in the right alphabetical order?
    Or can I add new permissions at the end of each node?
    I have my AD node as an example.

    the general plugin hasnt this commands
    --- merged: Mar 7, 2011 3:41 PM ---
    yes i can, its too hard to read up 3pages:D
    the big problem is an overload of permissions, when someone gets a permission which he already has throgh a inheritance or an '*'. because of that a group who has '*' should inheritance anything and shouldnt has any other permissions, because it already has all. so u could use multiple inheritance but u should look that u get no double permissions. the order deosnt matter:D
