    GroupManager - The Permissions 2.x plugin sucessor.
    Version: v1.0 alpha-5

    Yes, it has multiworld and multigroup users support now. When 1.0 final release, next step is database (SQLite/MySQL).

    ---

    If you use Essentials:
    - Don't use both EssentialsGroupManager.jar and GroupManager.jar! Just choose one, because they are the same!
    - Don't use both EssentialsGroupBridge.jar and FakePermissions.jar! Just choose one, because they are the same!


    ---

    As the growth of this plugin is getting faster and faster, I needed to put multiword support the soon as I could.
    Now it's here. And GroupManager is keeping all of it's good stuff! Did I say it is going to bring a lot more of new stuff too?

    Purpose of the plugin:
    The purpose has changed. Permissions got better. But it still not enough. Why I did, and keep doing this?
    I started it thinking that it would make me happy. Now it's because it will make YOU happy.

    Advantages against Permissions:
    • User multigroup support.
    • Full command list to change anything during game or thru the console.
    • Good API to change things. You to change a player group you can do getPlayer(name).setGroup(getGroup(name))
    • Exception nodes.
    • It separates groups files from users files.

    New Features:
    • User multigroup support(yay!)
    • Multiworld support(meh).
    • It has world permission mirroring(you can make a world nether having the same permissions of world2 instead of default world1).
    • It saves only the files that will have contents changed.
    • It separates groups files from users files.
    • It cleans old backup files older than 24h.

    Previous Features(included):
    • It has the same file format as Permissions, no need to get used with anything new.
    • It comes with a fake Permissions plugin, that attaches GroupManager to all your permissions dependent plugins. No need to make any changes, nor update other plugins. Just adjust your permissions files and GO!
    • Commands to change users permissions are REALLY on-the-fly(no touching files).
    • It saves the permissions data periodically.
    • It backups every file before overwrites.
    • Tons of commands for complete user/group/permission management during game/console.
    • It has a fantastic temporary permissions system, that let's you to make changes in users, with the possibility to go back at any time(and it never is saved on files).
    • Negative nodes(aka '-'): You can take off specific permissions from users that have a full set.
    • Exception node(aka '+'): Used when a user/group has a set of negative nodes, and you want to allow a specific one.

    User's subgroups: a brief explanation
    You can see on the file structure(down here on same post), that users have an optional node called subgroups. That node is a list, just like "permissions" node. There you can list a user subgroup, it can be as many as you want.
    What a user inherits from subgroups? Only permissions. It means nothing on a subgroup's info node(prefix, suffix, build and other variables) will be considered.
    The user will still be considered as a member of that group, but will only inherits it's permissions, like some commands, kits, etc.

    This reduces the needs of a nest of groups inheriting each other.
    You can have one user in Peasant group, which has only some basics, and them let him join in Miner as a subgroup, where he can get Miner kits, or other related to miner group.
    Later, when your town needs a railer, you can just add the group Railer to him as subgroup, and he will have both things at same time. When the job is done, you just remove the subgroup.
    This gets even more interesting when you have groups related to towns, factions, teams… etc.

    World mirroring: a brief explanation
    Let's say you have a config file like this:
    Code:
    settings:
      data:
        save:
          minutes: 10
      logging:
        level: INFO
      permission:
        world:
          mirror:
            world1:
              - world2
              - world3
            world4:
              - world5
    It means that all your permissions of world2, and world3 will be the same of world1. And it means all permissions of world5 will be the same of world4.
    It won't copy any file. In fact, it won't matter if there is files for world2… when the permissions get load, every request for world2 will be redirected for world3. Simple as that.

    If no mirroring is specified, any world not loaded will automatically mirror the default world of the server.

    File structure: a brief explanation
    The files read for GroupManager 1.0+ for data management are two files per world. The users file are users.yml. The groups file are groups.yml.
    The thing is that those files are located in:
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/WORLDNAME

    So the file structure for the world called anjoCaidoWorld and netherWorld will be:
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/anjoCaidoWorld/groups.yml
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/anjoCaidoWorld/users.yml
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/netherWorld/groups.yml
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/netherWorld/users.yml

    The files might look like this:
    groups.yml
    Code:
    groups:
        Admins:
            default: false
            info:

            subgroups:
              - Miner
              - Railer
    You can see that the node structure are exactly the same used for GroupManager 0.99d(-) and Permissions, it means you can use the same files here.
    Note: Every node that doesn't make part of the respective file is ignored. So if you are migrating from older GroupManager or Permissions you can just duplicate your files as groups.yml and users.yml. When comes the time where is needed to save the file, all unused data for each file will be discarded. So you don't need to split files, just duplicate them with correct names, it will work.

    Negative and Exception nodes: a brief explanation
    Let's say you have a group SemiAdmin like this.
    Code:
    groups:
      SemiAdmin:
        default: false
        permissions: [+groupmanager.manpromote, -groupmanager.*,
          '*']
        inheritance: [Moderator]
        info: {prefix: '', build: false, suffix: ''}
    You should read this way:
    '*' -> means this group will have access to all commands.
    '-groupmanager.*' -> Where all his commands of groupmanager where removed.
    '+groupmanager.manpromote' -> Except manpromote.

    It means he can do everything that is not of GroupManager, AND manpromote.

    It's like listing essentials.*, worldedit.*, worldprotect.*, everyotherthing.* and groupmanager.manpromote.

    It gives a very big flexibility on permissions.

    Note:
    For every level of inheritance,
    Every permission starting with '+' is tested first. Then comes permissions starting with '-'. Then comes normal permissions(including '*').

    Commands:
    • Now on multiword support, every command will act only on the selected world.
    • If none/invalid world is selected, it will run on the default world.
    • If the world selected is a mirrored world, it will work on the mirror world.
    (on next version, when a command involves a player, there will be a toggle that will automatically act on the victim(player) world is in)

    All commands that changes permissions only allow you to change users below in a inheritance level(eg. Admins can't mod other Admins, but can modify Moderators).
    Except for Console, he can modify anyone.

    So, what happens with all of these plugins that already use Permissions?
    They will still work. I made a fake Permissions plugin, that will replace your old Permissions plugin. And the new fake one will attach directly on GroupManager system. So all plugins will think they are working with Permissions, but they will work with GroupManager.
    The most incredible thing is that all those plugins will receive the benefit of instant changes.

    I'm a server Administrator, what should I do to use it?
    If you already have Permissions, do this:
    1. Remove Permissions.jar from you plugins folder. (leave the Permissions folder there, if it is named diferently than this, the automatic import will not work)
    2. Paste GroupManager.jar with FakePermissions.jar on your plugins folder.
    3. Run.
    4. With all file structure done, you create your worlds folder and copy your files there.

    All your old plugins will still work like a charm.

    I'm a plugin developer, how should I use this plugin?
    You can read the java-doc, linked below. It's not complete yet, but it has the essential.
    Here is some code examples...

    Loading in your plugin:
    Code:
    import org.anjocaido.groupmanager.GroupManager;
    import org.anjocaido.groupmanager.dataholder.worlds.WorldsHolder;
    import org.anjocaido.groupmanager.dataholder.WorldDataHolder;
    public void onEnable() {
            Plugin p = this.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("GroupManager");
            if (p != null) {
                if (!this.getServer().getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled(p)) {
                    this.getServer().getPluginManager().enablePlugin(p);
                }
                GroupManager gm = (GroupManager) p;
                WorldsHolder wd = gm.getWorldsHolder();
            } else {
                this.getPluginLoader().disablePlugin(this);
            }
        }
    WorldsHolder contains everything you need. You can easily do anything with it.

    Here is a example of a plugin that in a special circumstance, needed to put the player in a special group, with no permissions at all.
    Code:
    public void markAsNotLoggedIn(Player player) {
                OverloadedWorldHolder perm = gm.getWorldsHolder().getWorldData(player);
                Group lockDown = perm.getGroup("NotLoggedIn");
                if(lockDown == null){
                    lockDown = perm.createGroup("NotLoggedIn");
                }
                perm.overloadUser(player.getName());
                perm.getUser(player.getName()).setGroup(lockDown);
        }
    From now on the user is in this special group. And every change on him is temporary. Until the code below is executed.
    Code:
    public void restorePermissions(Player player){
                OverloadedWorldHolder perm = gm.getWorldsHolder().getWorldData(player);
                perm.removeOverload(player.getName());
        }
    And, finally, how to check a user permission:
    Code:
    public boolean canChangeGroup(Player player){
                return gm.getWorldsHolder().getWorldPermissions(player).has(player,"groupmanager.mangroup");
        }
    F.A.Q.
    Q: It is compatible with permissions... but where it get it's data from?
    - A: It gets from users.yml and groups.yml in the world folder, located properly inside GroupManager worlds folder.
    Q: Can I use commands from other plugins to change permissions?
    - A: No. I made the decision to store data in GroupManager folder because I don't think it is right my plugin mess around with other ones files. Unfortunately, other plugins of group modification tries to access other files than mine.

    Yes, works like that.

    Yeah, I undestand your needs. I think that would be very useful, but GroupManager is just a group management plugin. It is directed for admins. But any plugin based on GroupManager that categorizes groups, and let players join some group by themselves is very welcome. I mean, those features are out of the GM scope.[MERGETIME="1299665845"][/MERGETIME]
    You need to add essentials.kit too... it is the basic access for the command.
    [MERGETIME="1299670267"][/MERGETIME]
    Version 1.0 alpha-3:
    • Basic user multigroup support using subgroups concept.
    • Added tracking for minor bugs.

    User's subgroups: a brief explanation
    You can see on the file structure(down here on same post), that users have an optional node called subgroups. That node is a list, just like "permissions" node. There you can list a user subgroup, it can be as many as you want.
    What a user inherits from subgroups? Only permissions. It means nothing on a subgroup's info node(prefix, suffix, build and other variables) will be considered.
    The user will still be considered as a member of that group, but will only inherits it's permissions, like some commands, kits, etc.

    This reduces the needs of a nest of groups inheriting each other.
    You can have one user in Peasant group, which has only some basics, and them let him join in Miner as a subgroup, where he can get Miner kits, or other related to miner group.
    Later, when your town needs a railer, you can just add the group Railer to him as subgroup, and he will have both things at same time. When the job is done, you just remove the subgroup.
    This gets even more interesting when you have groups related to towns, factions, teams… etc.

    How to use multigroup? Here is some template users.yml and groups.yml files as examples...
    Groups.yml

    I'm having issues with the groups.yml keeps semi reverting back. There is no errors or anything and I'm wondering what's causing this...

    is your server offline, if you edit you configs? It has to.
    If you edit the configs on an online-Server, edit you configs within 10 minutes and do ingame /manload and mansave.

    Am i being ignored? The whole GroupManager system made everything worse than if it would be off, it broke when i tried giving someone the sethome permission.

    /sethome works fine here with exactly your files copy & paste.

    Make sure to have FakePermissions installed.

    If you still have problems, you can set the loggin level on config.yml from INFO to FINEST. And paste here what happens when someone tries to use the command.

    Because, for me, Permissions works while this doesn't. This also trashes the format your .YML file and makes it much more difficult to carry out trouble shooting if needed.

    i would like to imitate a user/group for a while to test out his/her permissions.

    maybe temporarily report the admin's permissions as the user/group's and leave only the permission to use a certain command to stop the test/imitation?

    Setting a group in groups.yml to build: false does nothing.
    That group is still able to place blocks.

    You need another plugin that seeks these values to restrict access
    like Antibuild or Antigrief

    Okay, thanks for the information.
    I was using Permissions 2.5.2 before this, and that value worked without the need of additional plugins.
    That's why I was confused.

    Hi,
    Be careful in your first post, because the groups.yml must indent the permissions lines and inheritance lines.
    For example :
    Code:
    groups:
        Admins:
            default: false
            info:
                build: false
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
            inheritance:
            - SemiAdmin
            permissions:
            - '*'
        Default:
            default: true
            info:
                build: false
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
            inheritance: []
            permissions:
            - essentials.spawn
            - essentials.motd
            - essentials.help
            - essentials.home
            - essentials.sethome
    
    Must be replaced by :

    Code:
    groups:
        Admins:
            default: false
            info:
                build: false
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
            inheritance:
              - SemiAdmin
            permissions:
              - '*'
        Default:
            default: true
            info:
                build: false
                prefix: ''
                suffix: ''
            inheritance: []
            permissions:
              - essentials.spawn

              - essentials.sethome

    I recently installed the latest version of AntiBuild. After installing it, and setting up the build permissions, i boot up my server. However, after it has booted, all build permissions have been reset to "false". Any ideas?

    Code:
    groups:
      Guest:
        default: true
        permissions:
        - essentials.afk
        - essentials.back
        - essentials.help
        - essentials.home
        - essentials.kit.dirt
        - essentials.kit.glass
        - essentials.kit.sand
        - essentials.kit.stone
        - essentials.kit.tools
        - essentials.list
        - essentials.motd
        - essentials.rules
        - essentials.sethome
        - essentials.spawn
        - essentials.tp
        inheritance: []
        info:
          prefix: ''
          build: false
          suffix: ''
      Builder:
        default: false
        permissions:
        - woolcolor.spawn
        inheritance: []
        info:
          prefix: '&e'
          build: true
          suffix: ''
      Moderator:
        default: false
        permissions:
        - '*'
        inheritance: []
        info:
          prefix: '&2'
          build: true
          suffix: ''
      Admin:
        default: false
        permissions:
        - '*'
        inheritance: []
        info:
          prefix: '&5'
          build: true
          suffix: ''
    
    ::EDIT::
    The same also goes for the "inheritance" setting.

    This doesn't solve any issues AnjoCaido nor it explains whats causing it... with out a doubt if you use essentials to me it would make sense to remove essentialsgroupmanager and the bridge with out even reading your red tip mate...

    @ jobsti yeah mate i never edit anything when a server is up i always take it down before hand as im aware it can cause a lot of issues ehehehe...

    Your problems seems not to be GM. Probably Essentials. Yet, I'm not sure what the last picture means.
    [MERGETIME="1299708530"][/MERGETIME]
    Of course it does. Many people doesn't see that as so obvious. Or I wouldn't put a very big and red tip over there.
    [MERGETIME="1299708587"][/MERGETIME]
    You need to configurate your chat plugin, if it lets you do it.
    [MERGETIME="1299708737"][/MERGETIME]
    Lol, what do you mean by that? a long a go we fixed the node listing to block style(listing with '-' and new line for every entry)
    [MERGETIME="1299708794"][/MERGETIME]
    I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend you. But nothing that you said seemed to make sense.

    They both pass the online check, and the mod is loading fine when i look in the logs, but nobody is assigned to any groups, and even I cannot use certain commands like /manuadd.

    What am I doing wrong??

    Hmm that might be true but i still dont know why my groups.yml keeps reverting mate hehe... kinda strange really... Is there any other suggestions i might be able to try at all?

    As far as i can tell everything is totally fine... just unsure why it wants to revert back to a semi default groups file.

    I'm pretty confident that my user's suffixes/prefixes aren't overwriting the groups
    I'm not getting any errors, it just wont show my prefix. I am not using any chat plugins. (Are they required for this to work?)

    I have a problem. I use multiverse for multi worlds and i created more then one folder inside the worlds folder for different worlds, but its keeping the same permissions for all the worlds. Any suggestions?
