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.

I keep getting this error.
Im on [602] and [2.5.5]

ONLY PERMISSIONS IS INSTALLED.
Im just testing around.
Without permissions no error, with it i get this:

Code:

2011-03-30 11:44:06 [INFO] Invalid config file found and converted to proper name/format.

 

Guys I've gota problem that i've tried to solve for like 2 hours and couldn't find a way how to. Finally I decided to post here.
The problem:
Okay, so when i put my name or someone else to users and then add me or someone else to group and when i join the server and type something in the chat it just puts like a prefix that I CAN'T FU#!N remove! So this is really disturbin as if i try to use iChat. Beacouse then i have like 2 prefixes ex. AdminAdmins. ._.
Some help please?
This is how the code looks like in permissions config.

Code:

    Admins:
        default: false
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
            build: true
        inheritance:
        permissions:
            - '*'

users:
    RoXx:
        group: Admins
        permissions:

Thanks in advance!

 

Server crash -> Permissions not working at all, tried disabling addon etc... :<

 

This is probably a problem with iChat then, not Permissions. The prefix/suffix feature is just something for other plugins to.. plug in to.
Try getting rid of iChat temporarily? If that fixes it, you might want to post in the iChat thread.

do you get it every time, or only once? TheYeti might have just changed the format for the config file :/

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

 

If you read the developer's Changelog at the top, he states that the Permissions updated 2.5.5 plugin does this:

Better handling of configuration file errors.

• If you do not have a world config file for the default world at startup it will now look for config.yml
• 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.

Just make sure to have your Permissions config file(the .yml file) use the same name as the world in your server.properties file under level-name: .

 

This is correct. However, I looked at the source code, and while it does do that checking, it prints the warning message regardless of whether it actually found a problem.

So you can safely ignore it.

 

Got some wierd warning popping on each server start since 602.

"Invalid config file found and converted to proper name/format", plugins\Permissions .yml file is named as from level-name, so everything seems to be correct, but...

 

ok im having a few problems
1.when i try to use any command from SpawnControl it says i dont have the right permissions when all ive done in the config file is put my name as an admin so i should have all commands.
2.i also have citizens install and when i try too make an npc it doesn't do anything, it doesn't say you dont have right permissions or wrong command or anything nothing shows up ingame or on the console

so yeah if anyone could help i would like that alot

 

Bum da bum, post your config file?

 

Dont rage..

 

Kinda late reply, huh?

 

@TheYeti MySQL is not working for me

 

Crap your right. will push a fix for that. my apologies. don't know how that got missed in testing.

 

I'm so lost as a first time installer... Mainly what the hell is "Permissionsworld.yml" doing in the root plugins folder lol. Then in the Permissions folder I got a rename yml file so I named it world.yml. But not sure if this is correct or what.

 

noob here.
I have worldedit and worldguard, that should help me.
but another important question...
WTF I CAN'T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING.
Can you help me please?
1.I have Permissions and Permissions Plus, what's the difference, should I delete one of them?
2.How exactly can I make 4 groups: New,Member,Trusted,Admin?
new has almost nothing that he can do..he can only talk and use /spawn
3. What exactly is multiworld?
4. How can I start configuring PERMISSIONS so I can make a few people admins and disable certain items for non-admins and building in certain zones? ( can I do that with worldguard+worldedit or should I use EpicZones? )
what I did so far:
renamed the RENAME.yml file in the Permissions folder in plugins to [myworldname].yml , witch is world.yml

 

Question 2:

Code:

groups:
    New:
        default: true #this means people are this permission unless they are assigned another permission below
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
            build: false #or true, if you want them to be able to place or remove blocks\
        inheritance:
        permissions:
            - 'whatever.permission.is.used.by.spawn'
    Member:
        default: false
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
            build: true
        inheritance:
            - New #this means that Members have all the same permissions as New, plus additional ones below
        permissions:
            - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
             - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
             - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
             - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
    Trusted:
         default: false
         info:
             prefix: ''
             suffix: ''
             build: true
         inheritance:
             - Member #this means that Trusted have all the same permissions as Members, which includes all the permissions New has, plus additional ones below
         permissions:
             - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
              - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
              - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
              - 'whatever.permissions.these.guys.have'
    Admins:
        default: false
        info:
            prefix: ''
            suffix: ''
            build: true
        inheritance: #admins do not inherit permissions because they have access to all permissions
        permissions:
            - '*' #this means they have all permissions
users:
    Wolfthal:
        group: Admins
        permissions:
    Some_Dude:
        group: Trusted
        permissions:
               - 'any.extra.permissions.not.usually.given.to.Trusted'
                - 'any.extra.permissions.not.usually.given.to.Trusted'
                - 'any.extra.permissions.not.usually.given.to.Trusted'
                - 'any.extra.permissions.not.usually.given.to.Trusted'

Question 4;

Most plugins support permissions, and they will have permissions nodes posted on their first posts. Each permission node as an action which it applies to, for example there would be a permission node for using the spawn command, or a permission node that would allow you to build in protected zones. All you have to do is paste those permissions nodes in the appropriate group, adhering strictly to the format provided. Don't copy and paste from this post, because the format is changed when I post on this board.

 

1) I haven't heard of Permissions Plus before. Link, please?

2) By the rest of your post, it doesn't look like you've opened the Config file. Open it, and it should have instructions there- if you need more help, come post here again.

3) Multiworld is when multiple world are running on one server. Like two save files in SP that you can teleport between, but can't walk from one to the other. For Permissions multiworld support, it means each world can have different permissions. (Ex. In one world I can build, and in the other I can't.)

4) I think you'll need an external plugin to stop certain users from using certain blocks. For zone restrictions, it would probably be better to comment in the Worldguard/Worldedit threads to get some info on them. For configuring permissions, see 2)

 

On startup this is what I get. What does I do?

Code:

This is what my world.yml looks like:

Code:

# System is no longer used, but may become used in the future
# Copies is for multiple-world support
#   Put the name of the world you wish for it to be a clone of, otherwise leave it empty.
#   If this file is for your default world (the one in server.properties) then you must
#   leave copies blank.
#  Example: copies: Derp    -  This will clone the permissions of the world Derp
#
# Make sure to rename this file to the name of the world that is in sever.properties under
# level-name.  So if it is level-name: world  then this should be world.yml and in the
# plugins/Permissions directory (ie. plugins/Permissions/world.yml)
#
# NOTE: Do not use tabs while editing this document.  Use only spaces.  A good way to avoid

# AntiBuild is included with this.  To disable a group from being able to build then
# set the build: flag to false (build: false).  If you want a group to be able to build
# then set it to true.
##
# Groups can contain inheritance.
#   To make a group inherit the permissions from another
#   group simply place the groups name in the "inheritance:" like so:
#
#   Example:
#       inheritance:
#           - Default
##
#   All permissions including the asterisks must be placed in single quotes.
#   like so:
#
#       - 'foo.bar'
#
#   Otherwise errors will happen!
##
#   Globalized Permission settings:
#
#       If a permission contains periods (.) you can denote a globalized parameter:
#
#           - 'foo.*'
#
#       This will allow you to use all general commands.
#
##
#   Single Asterisk denotes all commands:
#
#       - '*'
#   If you give a group this permissions, do not have the group inherit any permissions
#   from other groups.  Any users assigned to this group should NOT be given any additional
#   permissions either.
##
#   To exempt a node use the - prefix like so:
#       - '-foo.bar'
##
#   prefix: and suffix: do not do anything on their own.  You need another outside plugin
#   such as iChat or HeroChat in order for these to do anything.

What Bukkit version are you using?

 

Bukkit-0.0.0-544-g6c6c30a-b556jnks

ok ok ok... I see it now. I fixed it.

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

 

Haha, yeah
2.5.5 only works with 602. (Maybe 600 and a bit above, but yeknow.

 

I think Permissions Plus is something to let you set permissions from in-game, much like GroupManager except for Permissions.

 

So it's an extension to Permissions?

 

I think so?

 

Code:

# System is no longer used, but may become used in the future
# Copies is for multiple-world support
#  Put the name of the world you wish for it to be a clone of, otherwise leave it empty.
#  If this file is for your default world (the one in server.properties) then you must
#  leave copies blank.
#  Example: copies: Derp    -  This will clone the permissions of the world Derp
#
# Make sure to rename this file to the name of the world that is in sever.properties under
# level-name.  So if it is level-name: world  then this should be world.yml and in the
# plugins/Permissions directory (ie. plugins/Permissions/world.yml)
#
# NOTE: Do not use tabs while editing this document.  Use only spaces.  A good way to avoid
# doing this is to use Notepad++ and replace the tab with 4 spaces.

##
# AntiBuild is included with this.  To disable a group from being able to build then
# set the build: flag to false (build: false).  If you want a group to be able to build
# then set it to true.
##
# Groups can contain inheritance.
#  To make a group inherit the permissions from another
#  group simply place the groups name in the "inheritance:" like so:
#
#  Example:
#      inheritance:
#          - Default
##
#  All permissions including the asterisks must be placed in single quotes.
#  like so:
#
#      - 'foo.bar'
#
#  Otherwise errors will happen!
##
#  Globalized Permission settings:
#
#      If a permission contains periods (.) you can denote a globalized parameter:
#
#          - 'foo.*'
#
#      This will allow you to use all general commands.
#
##
#  Single Asterisk denotes all commands:
#
#      - '*'
#  If you give a group this permissions, do not have the group inherit any permissions
#  from other groups.  Any users assigned to this group should NOT be given any additional
#  permissions either.
##
#  To exempt a node use the - prefix like so:
#      - '-foo.bar'
##
#  prefix: and suffix: do not do anything on their own.  You need another outside plugin
#  such as iChat or HeroChat in order for these to do anything.

Cant get something right. Is my file set up right?

 

That's an easy one. Add four (4) spaces before the "Default", "Moderator" and "Admins" lines.

Edit: in the "Users" section, some of the "Permissions:" lines need extra spaces. Make sure the "Permissions" Sections line up with the lines that specify which group the user is in. (That is, the "Group:" Sections.)

Edit2: Say, wheres your "Plugin:" sections?
Go to the very first line, press enter a couple times, and go to the first line again, and copy/paste this in:

Code:

plugin:
    permissions:
        system: default
        copies:

 

Dude thank you so much for the help really appreciate it. Which line do you mean though to add the plugin part?

 

Look at where it is in this example.
Now add that to yours.

And you're welcome ^_^

 

Okay so thank you so much. But apparently my main issue is that the jar file is nule :/. So im gonna look back into this later
