    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.

    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 remove all permissions from u as user and remove all permissions from the admin group so it has only '*'
    --- merged: Mar 7, 2011 5:01 PM ---
    yes i think. when they inheritance each other because 'iConomyChestShop.shop.*' includes 'iConomyChestShop.shop.use'. and 'iConomyChestShop.*.*' them all.
    and btw: 'iConomyChestShop.*.*' is wrong it should be 'iConomyChestShop.*'

    So...

    I rename world.yml to default.yml (contradictory to what's written in TheYeti's documentation)
    i move netherworld.yml to bukkitroot/netherworld (not mentioned anywhere in TheYeti's documentation)
    i move worldedit.yml to bukkitroot/worldedit (as above)

    And people wonder why everyone is having trouble with Permissions...

    I shall try this soon...

    i'm testing this solution and it doesn't work either.

    normally if i want to move or delete a file that's is in use by the server
    windows start nagging about the file cannot be transfered (it's locked).
    if i play around with my world2 copy, windows never nags. So this file
    isn't in use by the server. I know the file is without errors, (switching
    default world in the server properties to world 2 works as expected)

    my config:
    server\world1
    server\world2

    world1.yml is located at server\plugins\permissions\world1.yml

    i've tried:

    server\world2\world2.yml
    server\world2.yml
    server\plugins\world2\world2.yml
    server\plugins\permissions\world2.yml
    server\plugins\permissions\world2\world2.yml

    and none of them seems to work.

    the difference between world1.yml and world2.yml is that
    the user is assigned to different group. in world2.yml he
    has a 'lower' permission.

    i'll keep on testing, untill i got the [beep] thing working.
    Maybe someone here can point me in a right direction ?

    Aww, my permissions won't work! :(

    There's no errors in when I run the server. And I can't see anything wrong with my config file. The config got the same name as my world.

    HURRA!

    Multiworld Permissions WORK now! Thanks Yeti!

    YOU NEED:
    You must have a YML file called the same as your default world, in the folder */plugins/permissions/. (EG: If you default world was called "world", then you must have "world.yml".)
    One additional YML file per world in the same location. For example the world "nether" would need a "nether.yml".

    If the additional world has the same permissions as another world (EG 'nether' has the same permissions as 'world') then this is what it'll look like (using the said example).
    Code:
    plugin:
        permissions:
            system: default
            copies: world
    If the additional world has different permissions, then the file needs filled out in much the same was as your default world file.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Personally, i have three worlds. My main/default world is "world", i have a nether world called "netherworld" which has the same permissions as "world" so it's like single player in a way. and finally the third world called 'worldedit' which gives everyone access to WorldEdit plugin. This is, if you like, a free-build world.

    Here are my example YML files for the three worlds, located in */plugins/permissions/ :

    world.yml
    Code:
    plugin:
        permissions:
            system: default
            copies:
    
    groups:
        Default:
            default: true
            info:
                build: true
            permissions:
                - 'general.afk'
                - 'general.spawn'
                - 'general.player-info'
    
    users:
        ZephDavies:
            permissions:
                - '*'
    netherworld.yml
    Code:
    plugin:
        permissions:
            system: default
            copies: world
    worldedit.yml
    Code:
    plugin:
        permissions:
            system: default
            copies:
    
    groups:
        Default:
            default: true
            info:
                 build: true
            permissions:
                - 'worldedit.*'
                - 'general.*'
    
    users:
        ZephDavies:
            permissions:
                - '*'

    i think u mean that u alway get "no permissions to do..." ? the file seems to be ok, although u could remove the two last points of the mod group cause they are unnecessary, but this shoulnd solve anything... i dont know, maybe first try out only one goup with one permission to be sure that it basically works...
    --- merged: Mar 7, 2011 7:55 PM ---
    ok, but would did u do, im interested...
    --- merged: Mar 7, 2011 8:00 PM ---
    thank u, ill ask theyeti to make a link in the OP to this post.
    and where do u put the additional files? (edit it in ur post)

    make them OPs or use an additional plugin which supports these commands, permissions only support the permission system not the commands...

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

    Ok so I was told to upload my whole server for the community. Permissions isnt working for admins. I started with admins to see if I could get them in there to start setting up(starting with myself) I was testing with a couple commands and eventually just started listing everything out of frustration(as you can see)

    Here is a link to the server files:
    https://www.yousendit.com/download/T2pFYUowdVVJMHZ2Wmc9PQ
    (16MB file)

    Thoughts and help would be greatly aperciated.

    this is beyond rediculous. i go from using heyo wich makes permisions literaly as easy as possible to this. ive been trying to figure this out since yesterday and i have made zero progress becuase the instructions leave way too much unexplained. why doesnt somyone who actualy has this plugin working just post their YML file so we can all just copy/paste and edit it to what we need? ive read through every page on this (30+) and im still in the same spot as where i started.

    what im trying to do is simple, i just switched to bukkit a few days ago (as theres no other option)
    and just want to add the starget mod. to do this it needs permissions. i got this plugin, put it in the pluginsfolder followed by the world.yml (as my world name is world) in the permissions folder in the plugins folder.

    the permissions i need are

    stargate.use
    stargate.create
    stargate.destroy
    stargate.hidden
    stargate.private

    it shouldnt be this hard to go from using a groups.txt for permissions to this. this uterly fails in comparison.

    all i want is for somyone to post a yml configuration with those permissions set to default for anyone who joins my sever.
    or for somyone to post their yml configuration so that i can edit it to somthing i can use.
