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.

    • If it cannot find that it will look for world.yml instead in case you named it that when that is not what is in level-name:
    • It will rewrite the config file to be the proper name. At this time it does not delete the old one though.

[/SPOILER]

 

I have a rather strange glitch. I just started up my bukkit server a couple days ago, and plugged in Permissions, and have noticed this most peculiar pattern:

In a thirty-two block square around the spawn point (128 deep, of course) it is impossible to place or dig blocks, regardless of permission status (Even as an admin.) Beyond this, however, everything works just how it's supposed to.

Bukkit build 670

Plugins:
CookieMonster
iConomy
LocalShops
MultiVerse
Permissions
RetractableBridge
Stargate
Stargate-DHD

 

The ' ' for permissions NEED to be there. If that was the cause, then Lildirt shoulden't be able to do anything either.

I didn't see any bad spacing either.

 

i dont have the ' in my file here ill post it for you AND YES ITS USEING 2.6 i updated it my self and added a small fix to the .jar....

ok tried adding the quotes arouns the user name but still doesnt make me an admin ...
here is my yml

Code:

plugin:
    permissions:
        system: default
        copies:
groups:
    Default:
        default: true
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
            build: false
        inheritance:
        permissions:
            - 'iConomy.access'
            - 'iConomy.rank'
            - 'iConomy.list'
            - 'iConomy.payment'
    Moderator:
        default: false
        info:

            - '*'
users:

        groups: owner
        permissions:

 

I see why your file is different.
You don't set it to read-only when you start your server. I do, therefore I still have the '' after each boot and restart and don't have the null's.
However, I will retry what you said.

EDIT: After doing again what you said, the permissions just shit out a ton of errors.

 

err shure well go with that

 

id like to say that i didnt work im still not an admin/owner and idk why

Code:

Now It doesn't let me change my permissions AT ALL! I need some help please. Because all of this was working fine until i typed reload once (which i have done before and this hasnt happened, but now everytime it does.) and now its completely useless.

Thanks,

Run the server with the permissions in read-only.
Edit the permissions by TURNING OFF read-only.

Edit: Found my essentials problem. Still have problems though.

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

 

Thanks for your work. Would it be possible to add a "sudo" type command so I could set myself as a user, but still manage the server as an OP with something like /sudo.. or whatever you want to name it. It COULD be a simple implementation where you have to create a "sudo" group (as a passive group that only get's read when users use the command, but it doesn't set their permissions until then, and only for THAT command), and add users/permissions.. and commands would be typed as such "/sudo /plugin reload Permissions".. just an idea.

 

If by "old format" you mean using the [square brackets] instead of hyphens for lists, you can do that just fine in 2.6. Of course, it will be converted when Permissions overwrites your file, but it will still work.

Not necessary; the list can be indented and it will still work.

They are called "single quotes", and they are optional. You don't need them, but it doesn't hurt to have them.

Your tool looks fairly nice, but the Plugins page is not a good design. It should instead be a listbox, and it should list all jar files in some specific directory, so that people can throw in other plugins they want to use and make it work with your tool.

Also, I can't endorse that your tool will encourage people to use Essentials. I really don't like Essentials.

Eh, it's not an evil file format for something the average user never needs to see. It's only evil when it's used like this as a configuration format.

What if you make yourself an op? If that solves the issue, then you're running into core spawn protection and you will need to edit your server.properties to disable it (set the radius to 0 or something like that).

I believe there was someone on IRC who was working on a sudo-like command, not for Permissions but as a separate plugin (probably relying on Permissions though). I can't remember who it was, though.

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

 

Stop using "/reload" to reload Permissions! That forces a overwrite, replacing your changes. Use "/permissions -reload all". I've been saying this for the past few pages over and over again already. Yes, this thread may be 129 pages long, but at least read the previous few pages, so you know what's happening.

 

Err, I can maybe get a reply?!

Yes, I do have permissions set FOR EACH WORLD. Meaning different .yml files for each world, though the permissions are the same.


Are my plugins conflicting, or am I make a rookie mistake? (I saw this error before on the topic, but I don't remember how to solve it or where it was on this topic. Plus, I don't think it was in the current build/version of us anyways.)

Sorry that I've posted on this a lot, but this is my only problem and it's taken almost a week to solve it. I bet Beta 1.5 will be here (in a couple weeks) before I can even get it to work.

 

Have you checked console to see if there are any errors? Maybe Permissions isn't loading at all. And as far as I know prefix and suffix need to be in - ' ' to work. If thats causing an error then it won't load.

 

No errors, and the [Administrator] and [Moderator] work fine on HeroChat.
Here's my log from a standard boot.

 

Can you use paste bin.

 

Can anyone help me with this? For some reason I cannot establish any prefixes or suffixes.

• HeroSneak
• iChat
• Vanish
• WorldEdit
• WorldGuard

Sorry if this issue was already addressed but reading 127 pages worth of posts is too much for me. Please help QQ

 

Why does my permissions file constantly change to a weird horizontal format?

 

Alrighty, here you go.

Ignore the "**** NOT ENOUGH RAM!!"
It will soon be on a dedicated server, if I can get it working that is.

 

Okay I failed to see that, thanks a lot, nowi have to start working on rewriting all my permissions xD

 

thanks bro. And I am already aware of the plugins listings.. I just threw that up there to show people what its for. As for essentials.. I love those plugins accept the group manager part. Anyhow.. already helped two people today through PM to get their server running.. one guy made a dragon that was HUGE.. took him 29 hours to make it. I was impressed. anyhow.. ttyl

 

You appear to be using both & and % for colour codes. Try replacing all of the %'s with &'s where you are using colour codes.

Everything is fone there. All i can see in the perms file is that you aren't using - ' ' for inhertance and fpr prefix and suffix. I highly recommend trying it with those added.

 

I did that before, but I'll do it again!
Though, they work and thats all I know, they work without the [ ] too.
:s

Edit: Nothing happened. He still can't even rightclick anything.

 

Is there a chance that build inherits? Try setting Visitor build to true and see if it helps. other than that there is something very wrong.

 

i have a problem. i cant change anyones rank when the servers up. i have to restart the server to change anything! why

 

I already tried that in the past, I infact disabled inheriting for most groups except for Unregistered to Registered, and Registered to Moderator.
:/ Yep, there must be something very wrong.

 

thanxs!

btw if anyone is interested, ive made a small program that will let u ude the old v2.5.5 config format with the 2.6 jar.

 

Did everything you said with no success =/ Prefixes and suffixes still no showing

 

Do you have a chat plugin (EssentialsChat, iChat etc) ?
