Inactive [ADMN/DEV] PermissionsEx (PEX) v1.19.5 - Tomorrow is Today! [1.4.6-R0.1]

just using the /pex.. commands

Yeah.. I could do that, but that means I have to type in 1 command per prefix, per suffix, per groupname, and a few permission nodes at a time, which is less then desirable

you also can edit the yaml file (if you use file backend) and after you set up all of your permissions, just use /pex reload

I'm pretty new to hosting this server of mine and I'm trying to get this all down. Is there any way I can someone to link me to a "completed" permissions.yml" file so I can use it as a reference? I am having a hard time understanding how to build the code for groups and whatnot. I have the basic theory down, but I don't know what the individual 'nodes' are to set up specific permissions for moderators etc. Thanks in advance!

Sorry if it is posted but is there a way to convert permissions over to this? So I don't have to rewrite 40+ members?

Version 1.03
Autocomplete for users (taken from registred users and online users) and groups names.
New command for user removing (pex user <user> delete)
Fixed several nasty bugs. Thanks for bugreports!

There is 3rd party Perl script, which converts TheYeti's yaml files into SQL queries.
I think better ask Abadon (he is a author of script) for help.

Anyway, im currently planning to write a C utility (for Linux and Windows) to do such things.

can't wait for xml support

Can not find said thing sir. searched bukkit and google.

Also for some reason while manually adding in at least admins, on of my groups usually has * for permissions and no inheriting, but for some reason this is giving me a parse error? Checked spaces...everything is correct.

This... wow this is just epic! Sounds a lot better than the usual permissions

EDIT: Denial permissions?!? I love you
ANOTHER EDIT: Oh that probably was already in the default permissions, didn't know that
Either way, do prefix and suffix work in this?

To be honest denial permissions are Permissions feature

yes.

Code:

/pex user <user> prefix [newprefix]
/pex user <user> suffix [newsuffix]
/pex group <group> prefix [newprefix]
/pex group <group> suffix [newsuffix]

Ahhh ok great. I can't seem to be able to enable the permissions.modifyworld setting. It doesn't show up in my config.yml

Sorry, you need to add it manualy. You gave me idea, i'll add command to edit config.yml from chat/console.

Would be useful
What exactly would I need to add, then?
I tried it, but it didnt work.

Code:

permissions:
    backends:
        sql:
            driver: mysql
            uri: mysql://localhost/dbname
            user: dbuser
            password: dbpass
    backend: sql
    basedir: plugins/PermissionsEx
    modifyworld: true
    informplayers:
        modifyworld: false
        changes: true

see "modifyworld: true"

Yeah, that would work if I used file backend, but I've chosen to do stuff differently then before (moving from GroupManager).

I'm trying out a MySQL solution instead. I don't suppose it's possible I create the file in its entirety while using file backend, then switch to MySQL and have it convert everything over?

Not yet. I will think about dumping inmemory data to sql dump. Thank you for idea

Sounds good.

I am having trouble getting the SQL portion to work however. I assume I need to add a SQL table that holds the values for which user is in which group?

Show errors pls.

To enable SQL backend you just need set "permissions.backend = sql", also provide host, user, password and database name.
PEX will automaticaly create tables and initial data (default group).

Yeah, I've done that, the default table is setup. After that, I am placed in the default usergroup, but there's no way in-game for me to change anything as I just have "modifyworld.*"

Edit: just gave the default usergroup '*' permission in MySQL WorkBench, can change everything from there

DragonSupremacy, you would be better set to make initial changes (create admin group, give it '*' and put your self into admin group) from console. or at least dont forget to remove '*' from default after you are done

Hiya, this looks very interesting, any way to import the text file into mysql backend? thank you.

I'd love to use this but I'm not convinced of its stablity yet. using Permissions with an SQL backend is just...amazing. I can't wait to use this on our high-traffic server.

I have an issue, though. I'll stop you here if you know there are issues entering commands to pex within the console as thats where I have been testing. This is on build 803 running only Regios and PermissionsEx. Compatibility layer installed too. (was playing around with it)

This happens on group delete, doesn't matter which group.

Code:

>pex group donator delete
21:19:21 [INFO] Group donator removed!

Update: This happens on any user or group remove, not just groups.

Look like you are trying to remove virtual user or group. Anyway this is a bug.

Hi there!
I actually don´t get it how to set up Admin rights like '*' or world.'*' .
Means i know ho to open it and I knew how to do this with TheYeti´s Permissions, but with PEX it still wont work.
Any idea?

btw: do prefixes and suffixes work atm?

/edit i think i got it:
I used "Info:"

@tehkode: Thanks for updating that. I appreciate your quick response in only the way a server owner can

@NeoBlu: The best way is to use PEX from the in-game console and add the permission using the command 'pex group <group> add <permission> [world]' for the total admin rights. Here's what I did right off the bat:

pex group admin create (create admin group)
pex group admin add * (add * wildcard to admin group)

Then, add yourself to the admin group for the wildcard permission to take effect:
pex group admin user add shatteredbeam (adds me to admin group)

Once you've done this, you can start using /pex commands ingame. There are much finer granular controls you can use instead of the * wildcard, look at the original post if you're only looking to add pex nodes for in-game control.

As for prefixes and suffixes, they do indeed work, but PEX is not a chat mod, it only sets the fields. You'll need something like iChat to actually display the prefix/suffix information.

Hope that helps.

Will you make an API ?
Or the Permissions API works here ?
And all of the plugins that support Permissions work with this plugin ?

EDIT:
Sorry !
I didn't read the whole thread
Keep up good work !

You are sure what PermissionsCompat - "Permissions.jar" (http://webbukkit.org/jenkins/public/PermissionsCompat/PermissionsCompat-master-bin.zip) is inside "plugins/" ?
