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.

[/SPOILER]

 

ok i dont know-.- maybe TheYeti could help

 

In the same location. It all goes in there. Edited to make that clearer.

 

Should I just send him a message?

 

First you need a [GEN] plugin which allows kick ban. Lets assume it's called "essentials" and the command is "essentials.kick" and "essentials.ban"
Under "Mod:", under "Permissions:" you add:
- 'essentials.kick'
- 'essentials.ban'

 

i appreiciate the help but i have no idea what the problem is. i copied jandalf's file and before i edited it i tried to see if i worked and i get "could not determain persmissions version: 2.5.3

 

my multiworld setup works too ...
makes me ...
thanks to the 2.5.3 version

            - 'stargate.private'

 

Zeph that had even more errors than before.

 

Yeti, would it not be better (if possible) to assign users to groups, rather than a group to users?

EG:

Code:

users:
    group: Admins
        Bob:
            permissions:
                - 'extra.permission'
        Jim:
        Fred:
    group: Mods
        Alvin:
        Simon:
        Theodore:

It'll be a lot shorter that the current way around it is.

In console? could be a setup thing then a permissions thing. Can you post them?

 

They were basically the same errors I had before I added spaces to the file, but I fixed. Either way my LoginMessage doesn't work.

 

thnks again for the attempted help but the result is the same wich leads me to believe its A: my bukkit build, B:everyones have a format error when setting persmissions (highly unlikly) or C: theres a mystery error on my version alone.

i have one more request and if this doesnt work im switching back to unofficial heyo builds because although they are faulty the essentials that i need for my server will run.

my ingame name is prismweed. if you can edit the yml file to work for stargates for me then that would amazing but so far every config ive made and tried by people all get me the same result in console


"could not determain permissions verion:2.5.3"

and

"[stargate] permissions not loaded, using defaults"

 

it's how you define it yourself, i have my world.yml structure to user roles rather then users.
still in testing phase though, but everything is working.

just ignore the part of # debug temp shit

as you can see every group inherits from the one above.
It's just the way it works best for me. and you can define it
in any way you see fit. Just wanted to show me my system.

Thats in "Minecraft\plugins\Permissions\world.yml" correct?

I fixed those... still not working.

 

world.yml:

Code:

#   Put the name of the world you wish for it to be a clone of, otherwise leave it empty.
#   Does not work for the default world.
#  Example: copies: Derp    -  This will clone the permissions of the world Derp
plugin:
    permissions:
        system: default
        copies: Anarchia

1. Where's Anarchia.yml?
2. If world is your default world, RTFM: "# Does not work for the default world."

 

http://pastebin.com/ki9jKQZb
what did i do wrong...
cb biuld 445
permissions latest.
only Ops have commands working and everyone else is pulling "[INFO]: null" errors :/

I originaly tried using my old config from permissions 2.0 but realized parsing was different so I did a quick rework of someone else's posted earlier and renamed to the proper world name.

 

'Anarchia' is on the same server as 'world'. What does that mean '# Does not work for the default world'? It says
'system: default'. its like a contradiction. help what does this mean?

 

I think I actually got permissions to work after almost a week, now my last question:

Can you change a user's group through the game client? Say, I want to have everyone by default to not be able to build, but if i know them I will make them one level up.

 

1. groups:
2. Alien:
3. default: false
4. info:
5. prefix: '&1[&6Alien&1]&e'
6. suffix: '&f'
7. build: true
8. inheritance:

-
the inheritance in group alien has to be empty or a group assigned to it.
it cannot have only a -
Is the group Alien neccesary ? it looks like it's an empty group. If you want
to have 'unknown' users assigned to an empty group you could rename the
groupname to Default and set te the default value to true. the other groups
can't have default set to true then.

furthermore i can't see any users assigned to the groups.

I hope this helps...

Greetzzz Saturnine

 

Alien is for bad players, i'll remove it though as we haven't used it much anymore.
I removed all the players from the users: line down to save you the trouble of looking through them all (quite a large list).

 

If you put "# Does not work for the default world" with the line above it, and apply context... If you really can't perform such basic association, please stop trying to run a server, and borrow and read a few books on common sense from your local library.

Regardless of the logical impossibility of copying Anarchia, per the above: You have no Anarchia.yml. How the heck do you expect it to copy something that doesn't even exist?

 

Hoe did you get it to work? What solution worked best for you? Thanks

 

@yeahman: the group name Default is reserved for users not assigned to a group. if you look @ my config (a few posts back), you can see an example. except for the debug temp part ... thats for testing purpose only. I have the build option disabled for the default group, they may look around but not much else.

 

I have no clue why your being rude. now go f--k yourself. I could use some real help, not an @zz hole response.
--- merged: Mar 7, 2011 11:28 PM ---

ok, kewl. thank you! I think this answers my question too
--- merged: Mar 7, 2011 11:29 PM ---
Is it too much to ask for the plugin manager to get all this cluster f--k pulled together and documented?

 

First I updated to 2.5.3 from 2.5.2 Don't know if anything major happened or not, the changelog doesn;t seem to indicated that. After that I continue to fiddle with my config and it worked.

My real question is how do I move player from one group to another? Can it be done through the game. I don;t understand how this could be usable if you had to do it manually.

 

K, I tried everyone's advice and still no luck.
I removed the inheritance line from aliens, changed holedigger to default, etc etc.
It must be a conflict with essentials or something? :/

 

THIS WORKED. What also helped out is that there was further documentation in the yml file. Thanks korin!

I got it to work by following the advice I just quoted in this post.

 

I took a closer look @ yor .yml and saw that you had every inheritance configured as a list aka
inheritance:
- group
I guess permissions doesn't like that, so try inheritance: group

also make a backup from your yml file, delete all groups but one and see if that one does work.
if that works you know you're on the right way and can add more groups.

Good luck

 

Can someone please answer how to change a person's permissions group?

 

try: http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/admin-yeditor-v1-2-β-edit-permissions-on-the-fly-440.4186/

havent tested it yet and don't know if it supports multiworlds.

 

This is exactly what I wanted, thanks!
I just really think that it should be built in.
Hopefully it works.
