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.

It isn't recommended to edit yml files in notepad. I would get notepad++.

Ah, that helps tons. The flags themselves also need to have a .* at the end of them. I remember crawling thru the code once and seeing that but I don't remember what comes at the end. Just that adding a .* at the end fixed everything.

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

 

I used even akelpad,bred3 and notepad++
And you know what?Yesterday everything was fine.But then i updated my permissions a bit(just added two nodes to the default group),reloaded config and THIS happened.Any ideas?
Edit:
Manually checked my config,everything is fine,before permissions nodes 12 spacebars pressed(lol).
Just parsed it with fresh notepad++(even just reinstalled it),no errors.

 

how do i put my permisssions folder on here so you can see whats wrong?

 

Do you run any other plugins that would work with the permissions files? AssignPermissions, PermissionsPlus, ...?

 

No.I don't trust them so much.

 

.... Thank you so much

that solved everything!

Paste your worldname.yml from /Permissions/ to pastebin.com and post it!

 

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before, I have searched and couldn't find it...

What's the permission needed to use the whitelist command?? I've tried;

- minecraft.whitelist

and

- 'minecraft.whitelist'

(with the right number of spaces, no tabs etc) but neither seem to work. Each time I made a change to the file, plugins were reloaded, and the last couple of times my mod relogged and he still can't use /whitelist add [player]

 

By default, you need to be an op to use it. If you don't want to use the ops.txt file, then you will need DefaultPermissions.

 

This is my permissions file. it gives me an error about foo.bar and bar.foo! PLEASE HELP!

 

This is my permissions file. it gives me an error about foo.bar and bar.foo! PLEASE HELP!

 

Damn,JUST DELETE THIS foo.bar and bar.foo!

 

Please stop spamming the forums. Someone will get to it when they have a chance.

You have " instead of ' at the end of line 73 and 153:

Code:

            - 'Iconomy.payment"
            - 'Iconomy.payment"

All of the permissions under domjackson15 need to be moved over 1 more space.

 

Problem solved...
Hey,jeyge,wanna facepalm?
See that
- '
in default group?
That's the bug.Well...Why it pointed me to wrong place?

 

i did, didnt work

 

Heh,reason of error wasn't in foo.bar.Jeyge explained where it was.

 

ok il try that
Edit: I tried it, thanks so much god im an idiot!

 

Oops, I didn't even look past the easy spacing problems.

 

No, I'm not running GroupManager. There were no errors in the log, or the BLOCK_BREAK or BLOCK_PLACE error. In the log, it detects every plugin that I have, with no errors, but still the problem exists...

 

Thanks so much, I should have though about that; but some things aren't so intuitive to search for. I just wanted my trusted mods to be able to whitelist a few players if I'm not available for some time.

 

I just ran the file thru 2 parsers and on my own test server with no errors. I'm guessing the server.log was a no since you didn't post it. You can always check the usual things. Make sure the file is named <world name>.yml and is in the plugins\permissions directory. If you have extensions off, the fill will be just <world name>. Check the version you are running to make sure it is 2.7.3 and not 2.7.1 or 3.0. Outside of that, I'm just not sure.

 

Is the "interact" feature of Antibuild implemented as well ?

I would like to have a visitor group that is able to interact with the world (open doors, etc...) but that cannot place blocks. Is this possible with only the build-in Antibuild feature ?

 

hey, i went in and added tabs and in the console it gets an error saying " [SEVERE] Could not load 'plugins\Permissions.jar' in folder 'plugins'

oh wat i might think could cause the problem is that i use enter, to skip lines.. so should i redo everything and use ONLY spaces? o-o

 

I'm having an issue, everyone has access to every command, though they shouldn't. I know I probably made some bone head error, but I can't spot it.

 

I believe all permissions need to be in single quotes like:

Code:

permissions:
    '- friendlies.creeper.*'
    '- friendlies.skeleton.*'

 

You seem to have been in the process of removing all of the 's but you missed a few closing ones. Remove the rest of them and you should see some better results.

Btw - Didn't that give you some similar errors to the last time?

 

For that purpose might I recommend GuestPrev
You can install it, configure it and leave it, just make sure your members are either added to the authorised.txt or they have the isauthorised permission node so they aren't affected by it

I've been using GuestPrev as my primary defence against random people and aside from a few items being lost (my regulars gave guests diamond equipment and guestprev destroyed it lol) I've never had a problem with it

For the sake of redundancy I set up the config and the permission nodes the same way as GuestPrev will leave a [SEVERE] error if it can't read or find the config but no in game warnings

 

Yeah I did.. i went through and fixed all the closing ' and everyone still has access to the commands. Do I need to restart the server? or is /permissions -reload all good enough?

 

The /pr -reload all is good enough but were you not getting errors before/after in your console? If not, then your file isn't named <world name>.yml or <world name> if you have extensions turned off.
