    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.

        • This was cancelled as it ended up being not needed

    iTech, i found the root of the problem for mine, its the CraftBook v3.0 alpha2 , if you download the lastest build of craftbook and put nodes of craftbook to your players, it wont say that anymore
    *TO SAY NOW, i have +20 groups*

    nodes include-
    craftbook.mech.*

    all craftbook nodes can be found here -

    just bringing my post back to attention : anyone know a resolution or when the right clicking error will go :( every time one of my players right click they get the message which spans their chat 'You dont have permission to do this'
    ! also my prefixes or suffixes will not work :(

    I'm also getting this, I get it when right clicking on doors and chests, however it doesn't stop me from doing anything just spams the chat channel.

    I also have LWC v2.3 installed ? Not sure if this is adding to it ?
     
  6. I have made a little Python script to translate whitelist.txt in Permissions.yml

    Code:
    #!/usr/bin/python
    # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
    
    #Mask
    config = """    %s
           group: %s
           permissions:
    """
    
    #Whitelist file
    fic = ('white-list.txt')
    
    config_perm = ''
    
    #Asking for world name and group name
    print '-'*50
    print 'Welcome in Whitelist To Permissions script'
    print '-'*50
    world = raw_input('Enter your world name : (case sensitive) ')
    group = raw_input('Enter your group name : ')
    
    #Reading the file
    userlist = open(fic, 'r').readlines()
    
    #Apply the mask and add a :
    for line in userlist:
            config_perm = config_perm + config % ((line[:-1] + ':'), group)
    
    #Write the file
    def write_permissions_yml():
            perm_file = 'plugins/Permissions/' + world + '.yml'
            perm_write = open(perm_file, 'a')
            perm_write.write(config_perm)
            perm_write.close()
    
    write_permissions_yml()
    
    #Work done
    print '-'*50
    print 'Translation done !'
    print 'Thanks for using ;)'
    
    #EOF
    It ask you the world name and the group name, and generate the world.yml permissions file adding all the whitelisted players at the end of the permissions file.

    Have fun ;)

    You need to install a plugin which gives items out, since permissions cannot have any effect on default commands. Plugins such as Essentails and DefaultCommands (my personal favorite) will work for you

    Hello,
    the users of my plugin xWarp has following problem:
    http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/tp-xwarp-v2-7-9-a-mywarp-fork-556-602-617.857/page-8#post-200051

    I'm using only your “getPermissionInteger()”:
    Code:
    public int getInteger(CommandSender sender, PermissionValues value, int def) {
            if (this.handler != null) {
                if (sender instanceof Player) {
                    int result = this.handler.getPermissionInteger(((Player) sender).getWorld().getName(), ((Player) sender).getName(), value.name);
                    return result < 0 ? def : result;
                } else {
                    return def;
                }
            } else {
                return def;
            }
        }
    Now where is the problem? Is it intended and the users has to live with this, or does I use it wrong, or is it a problem in your plugin?

    I am having an issue trying to get this to work. I can get everything to load seemingly ok but regardless of what commands I give groups access to they can use commands they shouldnt. for example I dont want my moderator group to be able to use essentials.ban so I didnt include it in their permissions, yet they can still use the command.

    Not sure what I am doing wrong and could use some help. I attached my file just in case

    Thanks

    Nope. this was an issue caused by myself. the update from peasant to settler is done with a script I wrote which failed for 2-3 users while I was doing an update. Once I manually changed the user to settler level it worked fine.

    Oh and if you do not believe me I can only invite you over to my server and try for yourself. There is no other "proof" that I can supply except that.

    here is my config.

    So according to the YML your config has No errors just like mine doesn't either. But your saying you can update users to another group with no problems ? Including New people ? Because the groups of the permissions file is what we all are talking about. We cannot update people. So if you got this all figured out, please explain what you did to fix it to the creators of this plugin.. because they might need your help.

    And are you using CB670 and 2.6 of Permissions ? Because this version is what we are talking about.

    I also would love to see it first hand.. I'll see if I can get in there within 10 minutes of this post.

    Alright, I've just about given up on this, I've read through a ton of examples, read tutorials, and used the extent of what I've learned from coding, but I'm not sure what's going wrong. Here's the file I'm using, I don't really have access to the server logs since it's not my server and it's on a dedicated connection, so I don't have the console. Thanks in advance guys, I don't know what's wrong with it.

    Oh, and I have a users section and all, I just didn't think it'd be something that would matter, and figured people would rather not have their usernames thrown about. Anyway, thanks in advance again.

    Might have been a better idea to just replace all the usernames with User1, User2, etc. At the very least, try removing all but one user to make sure that the error isn't in that section.

    The other thing I would suggest is to ask whoever is running the server to give you console access. Or at least send you the server log.

    Ok after testing around here is the solution: Do not let bukkit/permissions write to your file.
    I have a website w. a PHP script through which the people apply for a new level. In order for the webiste to be able to write to the file, I changed the file ownership to the 'apache'-user. Once I let minecraft write to the file, I would end up with a file that consisted only of

    {}

    So the solution: write-protect your file.

    Created a bug in the bugtracker:

    Haha, well, I have the HUGE document of the server log totaling 116222kb, but I don't really think anyone wants to download all that jazz. I'll switch over the usernames and upload that then.

Thank you Uncovery for the wonderful tour of your city. Its his PHP website that handles it all. Its amazing.. and of course, that Cathedral you guys hand built.. AMAZING.. I have never seen the like.

    You definitely rock in my books man. I highly recommend everyone to see his server.

    Well with what uncovery just shown me.. you can use PHP to edit the YML permissions config file. The options are now open.. :)

    The only CON to it is, you must know how to code in PHP for your website.. lmao

    OK, first things first, you are giving the people who are part of the Admins group more permissions. They don't need any, they've got everything. Anyone who inherits - '*' from their group needs to have nothing else, literally. No other permissions.

    Second, why would you put all those individual permissions instead of just putting them in the groups permissions?
     
  25. Offline

    zorphon

    Good point... but that doesn't change the fact that Keput can't do the things I gave him to do.

    Wait, so if people are in the Admins group they automatically get all permissions? What if I didn't want certain admins to have some config type permissions?
     
  26. Offline

    Celtic Minstrel

    No.

    Then you don't give '*' to admins, or you add '-permission' to those users where permission is the permission needed to use those config things.

    The numbers shouldn't be a problem; it's only a problem if the name contains no letters (eg someone whose name is 23525).

    Perhaps there's a problem somewhere else in the config? Do you get an error on startup?

    EDIT: ninja'd again...
    You see that - '*' in the permissions for the Admins group? That means they have access to every permission node, period. Obviously, this is something you want to give to an EXTREMELY few people. This is why people have multiple groups with varying permissions.
    Now, as to how you can limit, that's where the exclusions come in. If there's a particular node, like perhaps wormhole.build, that you didn't want someone to have you would put this in their individual "users" permissions:
    - -wormhole.build
    With that extra minus just before. This is really what the user permission values are for, the groups are where you put most of the mass of the permissions. Try putting all of the permissions you're trying to give Keput under the Default group permissions, and removing all of those extra permissions underneath the other users (who are admins).
