Permissions Support

I am trying to write a plugin. I am a bit of a java noob. Could somone do an in depth tutorial on how to integrate Nikko's Permissions? Preferably a video tutorial, but a written one would be fine.

 

For me the best way is to look at working code, so pick one

 

Hi Astrognome, I could provide a video tutorial on how to use the "Permissions" plugin for you. It's rather simple, actually. Nikko provides some documentation on his plugin thread how to build in Permissions, however I can show you a good way (maybe the best) to use and allow the plugin to work with or without Permissions.

Though, for now, I'm heading to Zombies on Black Ops, I'll record a video later, probably in an hour.

 

Thanks, toxic! I couldn't quite figure out the code on Nikko's page.

Yheah. I tried to reverse engineer a plugin or two, but all the other other code blended in made it a bit confusing.

 

Code:

public class PermissionsClass{
    private static Permissions permissionsPlugin;
    private static boolean permissionsEnabled = false;

    public static void initialize(Server server) {
        Plugin test = server.getPluginManager().getPlugin("Permissions");
        if (test != null) {
            Logger log = Logger.getLogger("Minecraft");
            permissionsPlugin = (Permissions) test;
            permissionsEnabled = true;
            log.log(Level.INFO, " Permissions enabled.");
        } else {
            Logger log = Logger.getLogger("Minecraft");
            log.log(Level.SEVERE,
                    " Nijikokuns' Permissions plugin isn't loaded, there are no restrictions on commands.");
        }
    }


    private static boolean permission(Player player, String string) {
        return Permissions.Security.permission(player, string);
    }

    public static boolean enable(Player player) {
        if (permissionsEnabled) {
            return permission(player, "permission.nodes.here");
        }
        return true;
    }

This is the code I like to reuse

 

Thanks. I think I can figure it out now.

 

Classifying that as SEVERE is a bit... I don't know.. some owners just don't want to run it. Nice snippet though.

 

The level doesn't actually change how the message is displayed .
