Get infos from permissions plugin

Hi everybody, I'm looking (again, sorry) for help.
(I remind to you that i'm french, i'm sorry for the grammatical errors )

I would like to display admin & modos list from any permissions plugin found in the /plugin folder
(pex, groupmanager and other), with their colors.

I'm an absolute beginner, any help would be helpfull
(i don't ask you to write the entire script ^^ )

Thank you!

 

You could add all the plugins to your workspace and do it for every single one, ore you could use Vault, they already added multiple permission plugins to their library, you could easily acces it from there

 

Will peoples have to download vault to run my plugin?

 

ShCr
Yes

 

Pleas tag me with EcMiner cause i don't get notified when you don't tag me

 

Thx EcMiner,

i think i'll not use vault.
How should i beggin?

 

ShCr You should download all the permission plugins you want your plugin to be supported and add them to your library

 

Thx EcMiner, i'll try it and i'll try to see if i can do something

 

Hello ShCr,
What about using vault? :3

 

I already said that, ShCr decided to not use vault

 

oops sorry
didn't read that :3

 

Exactly, i'm a kind of badass.

Well, my dear EcMiner (i'm sorry to annoy you), i've put the pex "external jar" in my project to begin, and iv've tried to do stuffs, but i really don't have any idea about how to detect if pex is installed in the /plugin folder, and how to acces to the permissions.yml.

Thank for helping me, that's nice.

 

You have multiple ways of doing this, but what i find the most simple way is this:

Code:java

public void checkPermissionsEx() {
Plugin pex = getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("PermissionsEx");
if(pex !=null) {
// PermissionsEx is detected and installed correctly
} else {
// PermissionsEx has not been detected
}
}

you have to run this method inside the onEnable() method, and in the plugin.yml you have to put: softdepend: [PermissionsEx]

 

EcMiner

Thx dude you're awesome.
I'll try to do shits today.

[Edit] Well, i've got errors on the "public void checkpermissions".

Here's my code:

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Code:

    @Override
    public void onEnable ()
    {
        saveDefaultConfig();
        public void checkPermissionsEx()
        {
            Plugin pex = getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("PermissionsEx");
            if(pex !=null)
            {
                //detected.
            }
            else
            {
                //not detected at all.
            }
        }
        this.getLogger().info("Enabled");
        super.onEnable();
    }
    

"public void checkpermissionsex"
- syntax error on token "void", @ expected
" Plugin pex = getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("PermissionsEx")"
-Illegal modifier for parameter pex; only final is permitted
-Plugin cannot be resolved to a type

 

You can not put a method inside a method, you have to create it outside the onEnable() method and type this in the onEnable() method: checkPermissionsEx();

 

How do i call the checkPermissionsEx() in the onEnable()?

 

ShCr
[OFF TOPIC]
Method Inception
[ON TOPIC]
Just put the method outside of the onEnable() method and then to call it, just type the method name and it's parameters(if any) like so, checkPermissionsEx();

 

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

[CODE:JAVA]
@Override
public void onEnable ()
{
saveDefaultConfig();
checkPermissionEx();
this.getLogger().info("Enabled");
super.onEnable();
}

@Override
public void onDisable()
{
this.getLogger().info("Disabled");
super.onDisable();
}

public void checkPermissionsEx()
{
Plugin pex = getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("PermissionsEx");
if(pex !=null)
{
//detected.
}
else
{
//not detected at all.
}
}
[/CODE:JAVA]

Like that GodzOfMadness?

I have an error on "checkPermissionEx" in the onEnable method:
-The method checkPermissionEx is undefined for the type mypluginname

 

ShCr You forgot an 's' in checkPermissionsEx() in your onEnable() method

 

F*ck, thx!

I'll try to work with this for the moment, thx guys, really.

Hi, sorry about the long time (I was busy with setting up my first server !).

Well, i take back the work on my plugin, and i added PermissionsBukkit to my plugin:

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Code:java

 
public void checkPermissionsBukkit()
{
Plugin pb = getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("PermissionsBukkit");
if(pb !=null)
{
this.getLogger().info("PermissionsBukkit Found!");
}
else
{
// PermissionsEx has not been detected
}
}
 

This is in my @override, under the onEnable & onDisable methods (no more method inception! ).

What I want to do:
If in my config.yml "perms" is set to true, the plugin will display a list of the players in the "group"
If not, the plugin will just diplay the "list".

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

config.yml

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Code:

staff:
 
  #If perms is set to true, the plugin will look for a permissions plugin in your server,
  #and load a list of the members off the group.
  #If perms is set to false, the plugin will display the list below.
 
  perms: true
  group: Admin
 
  list:

My plugin code:

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

Code:java

if(sender.hasPermission("si.staff"))
{
if(this.getConfig().getBoolean("staff.perms")==true)
{
sender.sendMessage(getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("PermissionsBukkit").getConfig().getString("groups."+this.getConfig().getString("staff.group")));
}
else
{
//send list in the config.yml
}
}
else
{
sender.sendMessage(ChatColor.RED+getConfig().getString("no permissions message"));
}

I don't know how ,to take the PermissionsBukkit list and display it, and i simply don't know how to take the list in my config.yml. I've tried a lot of things, but it diddn't work...

Could you please (again) help me?
