🔑 PermissionsEx v2.0 [API 5]

[Twisted_Code]

I read somewhere that the console needs to be given permission to run commands and have 2 questions:

1. First of all, why? Are you worried the person who owns a given server computer might be a spy for another server or something?
2. Second of all, how do I actually give the console permission, assuming it’s still necessary?

[zml]

That’s not exactly true. The way it works is that the console is just a command sender like any other (player, command block, rcon console, etc). Therefore, plugins check permissions. Now normally, Sponge has the console permissions configured so that if the permissions plugin returns no result for a permission, the console is granted that permission, so generally the console has all permissions.

The difficulty is that there are some ways to accidentally explicitly deny all permissions to the console. When this happens, the console no longer has all permissions. However, normally this won’t happen.

basically tl;dr 1. because we don’t stop it, 2. it’s not necessary.

[Twisted_Code]

Okay, fair enough. I figured it was something like that, although I felt compelled to ask because it seems a little strange still.
Anyway, moving on, I also noticed that, by default, permissions.json apparently gives permission to anything in the context “localip”: “127.0.0.1”. I assume this means anything on the local computer, and that this is to ensure that the console has permission, right? Or am I completely confused because I’m so tired or something LOL?

[zml]

That affects players and is designed to help with small servers/lan servers so the player connecting from the same computer as the server can automatically manage things ingame. The console defaulting is built into Sponge (so it will apply to any permissions plugin)

Hello.

I still not familiar with subjects and methods to get perms info from player

How is the code to i get the group the player is, using my plugin? Can be with or without PEX, i only need to get te group, and set the group of player.

I making a rank plugin and i only need this to finish the plugin!
Thanks.

Don’t understand what you’re trying to say, but this might help

[unsupported Guide] PEX quick command reference

When i started using the Sponge version of PEX i was quite confused, after some testing and constantly re-reading the wiki page that @zml quickly created i have gotten a fair understanding of how commands work, seeing that other are having issues i have decided to write this reference guide to help you out. It is likely that this will become obsolete once @zml changes the command structure so i will be linking his instructions when the time comes but for now here are some examples (updated for …

[zml]

@SnowBlitzz lolno

That’s all exposed within Sponge’s permissions API. player.getParents() returns all parents (not necessarily just groups) of a player in the current context, player.getSubjectData().addParent(contexts, parent); (SubjectData is the raw data, Subject calculates context combinations and inheritance – so for editing you probably want to work with player.getSubjectData()). To get groups objects to add, you want to get the group Subject with permissionService.getGroupSubjects().get(groupName)

[FabioZumbi12]

Thanks, i got the player group with

player.getParents().get(0).getIdentifier()

But i dont know how to get all groups to compare if that identifier is a group(may have other thinks on “parents”).
And i dont know how to set the group of player.

I tryed to use

player.getParents().set(0, "Visitor");

But the “Visitor” need to be a Subject How to create a new Subject?

---

I dont know how to get

permissionService.getGroupSubjects().get(groupName)

to work. permissionService dont have any method.

[zml]

permissionService is an instance of PermissionService, gotten from the Game’s ServiceManager.

player.getParents().get(0).getContainingCollection().equals(permissionService.getGroupSubjects()) will evaluate to true if the parent is a group (make sure to do size checks as well so that users with no parents are handled as well.

pService.getGroupSubjects().get(“Visitor”) would get you a Subject for the visitor group. Also the parents list returned is immutable, so you want to work through the SubjectData (player.getSubjectData() to modify parents).

[FabioZumbi12]

Thank you! This helped me to prevent errors on get the group if the players have other settings on parents

{ "subjects": { "default": { "default": [ - Pastebin.com

I have a problem… you can see in my file, that the owner is alone with all permissions allowed. But once i change something at the Player Permissions like “essentialcmds.clearinventory”: -1, then the Owner also cant use it… whats wrong ?

[SnowBlitzz]

same here. everything seems to affect the owner

[zml]

That is by design. The default group applies to every user, even those in the Owner group as well. Since essentialcmds.clearinventory is more specific than the default permission, and both have the same weight (1), the essentialcmds.clearinventory permission takes effect. To counteract this, you can increase the weight of the owner default to 2 – so /pex group Owner def 2, which will then override the negation.

[NikkuMiru]

Thanks you very much helped me alot

[bycicle]

How admit to edit command block?

[SnowBlitzz]

adding groups that are child and parent to a ladder will not work, is this also intended?

why does everytime i wan to run PEX on my server it says its a ‘non-mod file’

You need to have Sponge installed.

[CamouflageBacca]

still the same and i still can’t use /pex
btw can you use PEX commands from commands?

[JamieS1211]

Is there a sponge version specific wiki page? I was also wondering if there was any way to split the permissions file with the ranks against what permissions etc. and the users file with users against ranks?
