    Version: 1.19.5

    PLEASE USE BUKKIT-DEV FORUM FOR DISCUSSION/HELP
    http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/permissionsex/
    THANKS IN ADVANCE.

    PermissionsEx (PEX) is a new permissions plugin, based on Permissions ideas and supports all of its features. But PEX is more! It offers different backends, powerful ingame management, fine grained restrictions for world modification.

    [​IMG]

    Current features
    1. Bukkit Permissions (SuperPerms) compatible.
    2. Several backend support. Currently bundled backends is File (YAML) and SQL (MySQL, SQLite). Also it's possible to add your own.
    3. YAML backend, with new, fully rethinked, config schema. Now all user, groups and their permissions are stored in one file - permission.yml. BTW file name is adjustable too.
    4. SQL backend, most delicious. Currently MySQL and SQLite supported, but other DB (like Postgre) are possible too. PEX deploys the DB scheme (tables and initial data) automatically. This means, that you only need to provide data on how to connect to the db, everything else PEX will handle by itself.
    5. Flexible architecture and API - you can change a lot programmatically.
    6. Compatibility layer with TheYeti's Permissions (2.7.4) (as a separate part of the plugin). In most cases plugins, which use Permissions, will alsowork with PEX also.
    7. Rich chat/console command interface. You can do almost everything ingame. Command list below.
    8. Modifyworld - Embedded restrictions mechanism (we call it "modifyworld"), which provides the possibility to control players abilities, such as destroying/placing blocks, riding carts/boats or even getting spotted by mobs and much more. Disabled by default.
    9. Multigroup inheritance. User, as well as Group, can be member of several groups. And inherit their permissions, options and prefix/suffix.
    10. Permissions based upon Regular Expressions. This mean you can use regular expressions. Example: modifyworld.blocks.(destroy|place).(3|12) - this permission allow place or destroy only sand (12) or dirt (3) blocks. There is still limitation on dot usage in your regexps - dots are escaped by default.
    11. Multiworld permissions. Just don't specify world and permission would work in any world.
    12. Multiworld inheritance. You can inherit different groups in different worlds.
    13. Easy migration from Permissions 2.x. Converter for both YAML and SQL are embedded into PermissionsCompat. Just use simple instruction.
    14. Perfomance friendly. Low-level caching helps alot when you have 100+ online users :)
    15. Promotional/Demotional system. You can assign ranks to groups and promote/demote users to higher/lower ranked group.
    16. World-inheritance - permissions/option of one world can be inherited by another world.
    17. Timed Permissions - you can give user permission only for some amount of time.
    18. Chat Manager - small chat plugin, bundled with PEX. With prefixes/suffiex and colors. Check wiki for more details.

  2. Yes, seriously. I wouldn't suggest it if I wasn't serious (or at least have a winking smiley after it :))

    Why? I take it that strikes you as bad in some way?

    Are you using the PermissionsCompat bridge? (it's the permissions.jar file in the PEX zip)
    WorldEdit doesn't support SuperPerms based permission interfaces so you'll need to have the compatibility layer to get it to realise that PEX is there.

    Question: Does this have the same format as bukkitpermissions? I was using bukkitpermissions until I found out that worldedit permissions nodes don't work with it. Would I be able to just copy/paste the bukkit permissions over to PEX?

    EDIT: it would be nice if I could get a quick reply I am in the middle of setting up a server atm
     
  5. No. The format PEX uses is closer to what the pluging Permissions 2/3 uses.

    Umm, do do realize that it's a weekend now and there isn't any dedicated support group for this plugin, right? :)

    Thats for the old and dead permissions 3, did you read the wiki about multiworld permissions? By default all permissions you set up is global. If you dont want that you need to specify the world after the nodes, i'd suggest making your first world the one with all the permissions and then set - -'*' on your second world. So basically no one will have any permission there for a quick and dirty fix.

    Hi, I've also posted this in the IRC channel, but apparently everyone is in bed, even though there are 40+ users logged in:

    Is there anyone who can help me with converting from permissions 3?
    I've tried following the guide "Migrate-from-Permissions" in the wiki
    putting groups.yml and users.yml in a single world.yml
    It now has created a permissions.yml, with the users and groups from my old permissions
    but I get lots of errors
    I think it's in the wrong format
    Code:
    06:51:32 [SEVERE] null; mapping values are not allowed here initializing PermissionsEx v1.14 (Is it up to date?)
    mapping values are not allowed here
     in "<reader>", line 106, column 14:
                group:
                     ^
    
    I think the advice on the wiki to move users.yml and groups.yml into one world.yml and then run the suggested commands might not be sufficient to migrate from Permissions 3.
    I think there are some syntax differences in the yml, but I'm stuck.

    I did follow the steps in the wiki.

    I would really like to use my old Permissions 3 config, instead of having to use the in game command to recreate everything.

    My permissions.yml looks somewhat like this (simplified):

    Code:
    users:
        User1:
            group:
            - Default
        User2:
            group:
            - Member
        User3:
            group:
            - Admin
        User4:
            group:
            - Default
            - Member
    
    groups:
        Default:
            permissions:
            - essentials.motd
            - essentials.rules
            options:
                prefix: ''
                build: 'true'
                suffix: ''
        Member:
            permissions:
            - lwc.protect
            - essentials.afk
            - essentials.helpop
            - essentials.msg
            - essentials.r
            - essentials.list
            - nSpleef.member.creategame
            - nSpleef.member.join
            - nSpleef.member.leave
            - nSpleef.member.list
            - nSpleef.member.deletegame
            inheritance:
            - Default
            options:
                prefix: ''
                build: 'true'
                suffix: ''
        Moderator:
            permissions:
            - lwc.mod
            - essentials.*
            - nSpleef.admin.*
            inheritance:
            - Member
            options:
                prefix: ''
                build: 'true'
                suffix: ''
        Admin:
            permissions:
            - '*'
            options:
                prefix: ''
                build: 'true'
                suffix: ''
    Is there anyone who knows where to find the syntax for either Permissions 2.7's world.yml, or PermissionsEx's permissions.yml?

    I currently can't use the ingame commands, I only get exceptions.
     
  9. I would suggest dropping your permissions entries into the online YAML parser at https://yaml-online-parser.appspot.com/ and use that to help figure out your formatting issue.

    I'm suggesting this method for the following reasons:
    1. You didn't post your actual permissions config
    2. The simplified one you posted passes validation, so there is no way for anyone to make any helpful suggestions.
    I'm not trying to be a jerk, really I'm not, this is the only way I can think of right now that might help you with the limited amount of info you provided.

    is there a way to pull every permission node from the plugins into a txt file? or do i have to fetch all the permission nodes myself from all these wiki and dev pages

    is it possible to have a feature where we can toggle with /globalchat or /localchat and that will be the default chat? it seems most people are not a fan of the ! for global.... i love this chat plugin cause of the minimalistic feel

    I found a bug:
    After i typed in the console:
    pex user YourPlayerName group set Admins

    i was in the group "Admins." but the "." you must remove. So that was the problem.

    also the "*" doesnt work:
    - '*.'

    I dont know how to set all permissions for me. Which are the permissions for pex?
    - pex.* doesnt work...
    /help command from bukkit also doesnt work

    It is a bit bugy...

    It seems other also thinks its weird

    "Please read this if you are using PermissionsEx
    PermissionsEx loads nodes in a very screwed up manner. You need to put any wildcards AFTER their negations. So if you want to allow access to all networks except 'Bah' you would do it as such:

    Code:
    - -stargate.network.Bah - stargate.network.*
    This is a PermissionsEx issue, and there is nothing I can do to make it easier to use negations."

    suffix: ''
    build: false

    I want to enforce that default cannot build

    I love Chat Manager. But to me it would be nice to add two new variables. 1. Group name like %group and 2. %displayname for plugins that can change your name in game, like /nick in essentials or towny.

    I was running around #1145 then saw that craftbukkit finally had a recommended build so put that in. After upgrading to #1185 I now get the following error when starting my server. After starting it still seems to operate ok, but I don't like having a startup error.

    [SEVERE] Error occurred while enabling PermissionsEx v1.14 (Is it up to date?): org.bukkit.plugin.PluginDescriptionFile.getPermissions()Ljava/util/ArrayList;
