    GroupManager - The Permissions 2.x plugin sucessor.
    Version: v1.0 alpha-5

    Yes, it has multiworld and multigroup users support now. When 1.0 final release, next step is database (SQLite/MySQL).

    ---

    If you use Essentials:
    - Don't use both EssentialsGroupManager.jar and GroupManager.jar! Just choose one, because they are the same!
    - Don't use both EssentialsGroupBridge.jar and FakePermissions.jar! Just choose one, because they are the same!


    ---

    As the growth of this plugin is getting faster and faster, I needed to put multiword support the soon as I could.
    Now it's here. And GroupManager is keeping all of it's good stuff! Did I say it is going to bring a lot more of new stuff too?

    Purpose of the plugin:
    The purpose has changed. Permissions got better. But it still not enough. Why I did, and keep doing this?
    I started it thinking that it would make me happy. Now it's because it will make YOU happy.

    Advantages against Permissions:
    • User multigroup support.
    • Full command list to change anything during game or thru the console.
    • Good API to change things. You to change a player group you can do getPlayer(name).setGroup(getGroup(name))
    • Exception nodes.
    • It separates groups files from users files.

    New Features:
    • User multigroup support(yay!)
    • Multiworld support(meh).
    • It has world permission mirroring(you can make a world nether having the same permissions of world2 instead of default world1).
    • It saves only the files that will have contents changed.
    • It separates groups files from users files.
    • It cleans old backup files older than 24h.

    Previous Features(included):
    • It has the same file format as Permissions, no need to get used with anything new.
    • It comes with a fake Permissions plugin, that attaches GroupManager to all your permissions dependent plugins. No need to make any changes, nor update other plugins. Just adjust your permissions files and GO!
    • Commands to change users permissions are REALLY on-the-fly(no touching files).
    • It saves the permissions data periodically.
    • It backups every file before overwrites.
    • Tons of commands for complete user/group/permission management during game/console.
    • It has a fantastic temporary permissions system, that let's you to make changes in users, with the possibility to go back at any time(and it never is saved on files).
    • Negative nodes(aka '-'): You can take off specific permissions from users that have a full set.
    • Exception node(aka '+'): Used when a user/group has a set of negative nodes, and you want to allow a specific one.

    User's subgroups: a brief explanation
    You can see on the file structure(down here on same post), that users have an optional node called subgroups. That node is a list, just like "permissions" node. There you can list a user subgroup, it can be as many as you want.
    What a user inherits from subgroups? Only permissions. It means nothing on a subgroup's info node(prefix, suffix, build and other variables) will be considered.
    The user will still be considered as a member of that group, but will only inherits it's permissions, like some commands, kits, etc.

    This reduces the needs of a nest of groups inheriting each other.
    You can have one user in Peasant group, which has only some basics, and them let him join in Miner as a subgroup, where he can get Miner kits, or other related to miner group.
    Later, when your town needs a railer, you can just add the group Railer to him as subgroup, and he will have both things at same time. When the job is done, you just remove the subgroup.
    This gets even more interesting when you have groups related to towns, factions, teams… etc.

    World mirroring: a brief explanation
    Let's say you have a config file like this:
    Code:
    settings:
      data:
        save:
          minutes: 10
      logging:
        level: INFO
      permission:
        world:
          mirror:
            world1:
              - world2
              - world3
            world4:
              - world5
    It means that all your permissions of world2, and world3 will be the same of world1. And it means all permissions of world5 will be the same of world4.
    It won't copy any file. In fact, it won't matter if there is files for world2… when the permissions get load, every request for world2 will be redirected for world3. Simple as that.

    If no mirroring is specified, any world not loaded will automatically mirror the default world of the server.

    File structure: a brief explanation
    The files read for GroupManager 1.0+ for data management are two files per world. The users file are users.yml. The groups file are groups.yml.
    The thing is that those files are located in:
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/WORLDNAME

    So the file structure for the world called anjoCaidoWorld and netherWorld will be:
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/anjoCaidoWorld/groups.yml
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/anjoCaidoWorld/users.yml
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/netherWorld/groups.yml
    plugins/GroupManager/worlds/netherWorld/users.yml

    The files might look like this:
    groups.yml
    Code:
    groups:
        Admins:
            default: false
            info:

            subgroups:
              - Miner
              - Railer
    You can see that the node structure are exactly the same used for GroupManager 0.99d(-) and Permissions, it means you can use the same files here.
    Note: Every node that doesn't make part of the respective file is ignored. So if you are migrating from older GroupManager or Permissions you can just duplicate your files as groups.yml and users.yml. When comes the time where is needed to save the file, all unused data for each file will be discarded. So you don't need to split files, just duplicate them with correct names, it will work.

    Negative and Exception nodes: a brief explanation
    Let's say you have a group SemiAdmin like this.
    Code:
    groups:
      SemiAdmin:
        default: false
        permissions: [+groupmanager.manpromote, -groupmanager.*,
          '*']
        inheritance: [Moderator]
        info: {prefix: '', build: false, suffix: ''}
    You should read this way:
    '*' -> means this group will have access to all commands.
    '-groupmanager.*' -> Where all his commands of groupmanager where removed.
    '+groupmanager.manpromote' -> Except manpromote.

    It means he can do everything that is not of GroupManager, AND manpromote.

    It's like listing essentials.*, worldedit.*, worldprotect.*, everyotherthing.* and groupmanager.manpromote.

    It gives a very big flexibility on permissions.

    Note:
    For every level of inheritance,
    Every permission starting with '+' is tested first. Then comes permissions starting with '-'. Then comes normal permissions(including '*').

    Commands:
    • Now on multiword support, every command will act only on the selected world.
    • If none/invalid world is selected, it will run on the default world.
    • If the world selected is a mirrored world, it will work on the mirror world.
    (on next version, when a command involves a player, there will be a toggle that will automatically act on the victim(player) world is in)

    All commands that changes permissions only allow you to change users below in a inheritance level(eg. Admins can't mod other Admins, but can modify Moderators).
    Except for Console, he can modify anyone.

    So, what happens with all of these plugins that already use Permissions?
    They will still work. I made a fake Permissions plugin, that will replace your old Permissions plugin. And the new fake one will attach directly on GroupManager system. So all plugins will think they are working with Permissions, but they will work with GroupManager.
    The most incredible thing is that all those plugins will receive the benefit of instant changes.

    I'm a server Administrator, what should I do to use it?
    If you already have Permissions, do this:
    1. Remove Permissions.jar from you plugins folder. (leave the Permissions folder there, if it is named diferently than this, the automatic import will not work)
    2. Paste GroupManager.jar with FakePermissions.jar on your plugins folder.
    3. Run.
    4. With all file structure done, you create your worlds folder and copy your files there.

    All your old plugins will still work like a charm.

    I'm a plugin developer, how should I use this plugin?
    You can read the java-doc, linked below. It's not complete yet, but it has the essential.
    Here is some code examples...

    Loading in your plugin:
    Code:
    import org.anjocaido.groupmanager.GroupManager;
    import org.anjocaido.groupmanager.dataholder.worlds.WorldsHolder;
    import org.anjocaido.groupmanager.dataholder.WorldDataHolder;
    public void onEnable() {
            Plugin p = this.getServer().getPluginManager().getPlugin("GroupManager");
            if (p != null) {
                if (!this.getServer().getPluginManager().isPluginEnabled(p)) {
                    this.getServer().getPluginManager().enablePlugin(p);
                }
                GroupManager gm = (GroupManager) p;
                WorldsHolder wd = gm.getWorldsHolder();
            } else {
                this.getPluginLoader().disablePlugin(this);
            }
        }
    WorldsHolder contains everything you need. You can easily do anything with it.

    Here is a example of a plugin that in a special circumstance, needed to put the player in a special group, with no permissions at all.
    Code:
    public void markAsNotLoggedIn(Player player) {
                OverloadedWorldHolder perm = gm.getWorldsHolder().getWorldData(player);
                Group lockDown = perm.getGroup("NotLoggedIn");
                if(lockDown == null){
                    lockDown = perm.createGroup("NotLoggedIn");
                }
                perm.overloadUser(player.getName());
                perm.getUser(player.getName()).setGroup(lockDown);
        }
    From now on the user is in this special group. And every change on him is temporary. Until the code below is executed.
    Code:
    public void restorePermissions(Player player){
                OverloadedWorldHolder perm = gm.getWorldsHolder().getWorldData(player);
                perm.removeOverload(player.getName());
        }
    And, finally, how to check a user permission:
    Code:
    public boolean canChangeGroup(Player player){
                return gm.getWorldsHolder().getWorldPermissions(player).has(player,"groupmanager.mangroup");
        }
    F.A.Q.
    Q: It is compatible with permissions... but where it get it's data from?
    - A: It gets from users.yml and groups.yml in the world folder, located properly inside GroupManager worlds folder.
    Q: Can I use commands from other plugins to change permissions?
    - A: No. I made the decision to store data in GroupManager folder because I don't think it is right my plugin mess around with other ones files. Unfortunately, other plugins of group modification tries to access other files than mine.

    • World selection is optional, except for console.
    • Not selecting a world makes it run on same world of the command sender.
    • Fixed "temporary permissions" system.
    • Fixed most of commands bugs(I fixed all errors I could see)
    • Fake Permissions says it's 2.5 now, so plugins like HeroChat works now(yay).

    • User specific variables. Prefixes, Suffixes and more.
    • Negative permission node(prevails normal nodes). Like '-groupmanager.*'
    • Exception permission node(prevails negative nodes). Like '+groupmanager.manpromote'

    • It writes a template it self if doesn't find any data.yml file on the folder.
    Version 0.9d:
    • FakePermissions adapted to new CB builds.
    Version 0.9c:
    • Multiple inheritance fixed.
    • Added a command to toggle auto-saving, so you can edit the file while it is disabled.
    • Tested with server 1.3
    Version 0.9b:
    • Now variables work with spaced strings.(you can add prefix with spaces)
    • Fixed some errors while loading files in later 400+ builds.

    • Added variables manipulation command(things in info node, such as prefix, suffix, build, and custom ones)
    • Improved FakePermissions support for the Nijikokun's original one.
    • FakePermissions force loading of GroupManager before itself.
    Version 0.8:
    • Added tons of commands. Resulting in a complete control, inside the game.
    • Renamed some commands in the same format Wulfspider sugested.
    • FakePermissions.jar updated to take care oc Misc field, which some Permissions plugins need.
    Version 0.7:
    • Added commands /manpromote and /mandemote
    • Fixed a bug where a file with an empty permissions node in a group could fail the plugin to load.
    • now /addpermissions can only add permissions that the player have access.

    Toasty

    Why not list permissions with a "-" before each node, and each node on a separate line?

    Having to list permissions in a serial manner on one line is rather annoying. I can't section of a group of permissions and put a comment above them, nor can I temporarily remove a permission with a simple hash character before it.

    I'm curious as to why this design aspect was changed.

    I agree with others and toasty.

    Please give us a 'readability' option that would make the 'permissions' sections of data.yml print out like so on saves:
    PHP:
    permissions: [
          +
    groupmanager.mandemote,
          +
    groupmanager.manpromote,
          -
    groupmanager.*,
          
    '*'
        
    ]
    This would make it more readable, while still working with the yaml parser. Efficiency maniacs could still set the 'readability' option to 'false' if they really wanted to.

    Even better would be if you also made the 'readability' option keep #Comments in between saves.

    I do realize both of these would probably be quite the hack though. Some of us would really appreciate it though =)

    My only complaint is that the feedback on /manuadd isn't very descriptive (it would be nice if it told you what user was put where).

    As far as my suggestions, it would be nice if users were optionally notified when their rank changes (and at whose hand).

    Otherwise, I'm very pleased.

    You should put this in the faq! It wasn't necessary in Permissions, so it was damn confusing when it first happened, I thought I'd screwed up the actual permissions themselves.

    Q: I just upgraded from Nijijokun's Permissions and my users can't use kits any more!
    - A: Add essentials.kit to their group's permissions, in addition to essentials.kit.*

    I need a permission so I don't always have complete admin [*] access, but can change my permissions to whatever group I need to test.
    Essentials used to have this type of override permission, but they are forcing their users to switch to this permission plugin and ditched the overriding command.

    Also, why did you choose manu<blah>
    I would prefer shorter commands, like /gmgrp <name> <group>
    as typing is not one of my hobby's.

  20. Hi, we have a big problem :p
    We imported permissions config file in GroupManager, the groups seems working because all the players have their color/prefix/suffix but no command works.

    The admins have no commands working too.
    Why? :) Craftbukkit 450


    EDIT: ok, Essentials seems to not work on 450... :/

    tkelly

    I'd like to request an easier to remember command structure and/or a "/gm help" command. I find myself always coming back here to look up a command that I've already used 10 times.

    Here's my suggestions. I realize that many commands overlap between groups and player. However, I'm sure that GM could intelligently figure out whether a user is talking about a player or a group.
    And anyway, this is more of a suggestion/inspiration than a "you must do it this way!".

    I'm with tkelly on this. A simple /gm command, rather than 2 dozen /manwhatever
    But updating the wrapper for Permissions 2.4 and having multiworld support is more of a priority.

    Very weird stuff happening for me.
    Commands such as '/manglistp admins' show correct permissions, and querying players seams to work fine. But the only commands that are being restricted are the Groupmanager commands themselves. Using CB build 452 (same happens on 450) and Essentials plugins...

    Can someone give me a pointer as to what I may be doing wrong?

    Yeah so I made myself a Newcomer, but I can still use almost every command available...
    Also, when I make myself an admin "Adminx" I should have all commands, but I can't use any groupmanager commands.

    Did I forget to do something or do something wrong?

    I still can't figure out why NONE of the GroupManager commands work on our server. Me and the other player running it are both listed as Admins in the data.yml file and our permissions are set to ['*'] Howver, it keeps saying we are "not allowed to use that command" We are even both op'd to make extra sure we should be able to do everything. Still get the same "you are not allowed to use that command" I can use every other command.

    P.S.
    Does anyone know what part of Essentials (I think its Essentials) that broadcasts every time you place a block like TNT or lava or others? It even is broadcasting when I try to place a stone block that is out of reach. I want to turn it off because it is so annoying

    Think I had the same error.
    Just updated to bukkit build #457. The error didn't happen anymore.

    Essentials protect, im getting the same problem as you too. :l

    one question do you actully need permissions ? like permission 2.0 in the plugin folder to work? or can you just download groupmanager and edit data.yml?
