GetPerms

Table of Contents

The server must be running Java 8!

Bugs/problems/feature requests? Please file an issue at the Github repository.

Introduction

Ever had to get permission nodes for plugins on your server, but found that you either had to look for it on their website or individually look in plugin.yml? Or maybe you found a list of nodes, but it had the description next to it so you couldn't just copy and paste them all at one time? Well, this plugin is for you! GetPerms is a plugin that will pull permission nodes from each plugin on your server! This plugin will output them in two files:

permission_nodes.txt - A list of permissions without the descriptions for easy copy/paste
permission_nodes_desc.txt - A list of permissions with the descriptions for reference, grouped by plugin

Downloads

v1.1.16 (latest) @ dev.bukkit.org
v1.1.16 (latest) @ github.com
Latest developmental build @ github.com NOTE: The jarfile located here is a development build, so things aren't tested and bugs are likely to be present

View the complete changelog here.

Installation

Download the plugin here
Move the jar file to '/plugins' inside the server root directory

To start, you must download and install this plugin. To have the plugin generate the files, start your server, and wait for the server to finish fully starting up (look for 'Done! _ seconds'). Now, just wait until you see a message stating that GetPerms has finished generating files. Now you can either stop your server if you don't need it running, or you can leave it running. Now, locate the GetPerms permissions folder inside of the plugins folder (located at plugins/GetPerms/permissions/). In this folder, you should see at least two new files: permission_nodes.txt and permission_nodes_desc.txt. More information about each file can be located here.

Plugins must be in the 'plugins/' folder in order for GetPerms to grab the permission nodes from it. Also, GetPerms can only retrieve nodes that are in '[plugin_name].jar/plugin.yml'. Not all plugins provide all permissions in plugin.yml, so there may be some missing. Essentials is an example of this.

Bugs/problems/feature requests? Please file an issue at the Github repository.

Commands

For all commands, /gp can be used as an alias (like /gp regen)

Command	Description	Permission
/getperms reload	Reload the configuration file for GetPerms	getperms.reload
/getperms regen	(Re)generate the files containing the permission nodes lists	getperms.regen
/getperms update	Run the update task	getperms.update

If autoGen and regenerateOnPluginChange are both set to false in the config, one will need to use /getperms regen in order to generate the files.
NOTE: If disableOnFinish is set to true, these commands will not work once the plugin disables itself.

Permission nodes

Permission	Description	Default
getperms.*	Allows player access to all GetPerms commands	op
getperms.reload	Allows player to reload the GetPerms config file	op
getperms.regen	Allows player to regenerate permission list files	op
getperms.update	Allows player to run the update task	op

Temporary Plugin Permission Database

Essentials (permission_nodes.txt | permission_nodes_desc.txt)
WorldGuard (permission_nodes.txt | permission_nodes_desc.txt)

You can find more information about this database here. You can request to add plugins to the database here.

Reports

Bugs/problems/feature requests? Please file an issue at the Github repository.

Possible Todo

~~Add database of unretrievable permissions for retrieval~~ (info here)
Add a search command to search plugins for a specific permission node
Add a way to be able to import a permission node table (Such as with essentials) as a text file and convert it

This is my first plugin! Requests for another plugin? Want me to update an outdated/abandoned plugin? Request it here.

Thanks for mentioning it! However, I have actually already fixed it in the next version, which will be released soon.

Back from a looong break from Bukkit! Hm....let me check it out. Expect an update!

Oh, and I think if you enabled debug mode, you would have seen why. Look at the version in the config, and the version stated in the startup message. In the config, it says 1.1.4. The startup message says 1.1.6. Not sure as to why it didn't update the config automatically though. Changing the version in the config should cease the problem for now. My bad.

This little thing here:

2013-03-15 13:00:23 [INFO] [GetPerms] Enabling GetPerms v1.1.6
2013-03-15 13:00:23 [INFO] [GetPerms] This plugin is not sending usage stats.
2013-03-15 13:00:23 [INFO] [GetPerms] This plugin supports PermissionsEx, which will be used if detected.
2013-03-15 13:00:23 [INFO] [GetPerms] PEx detected! Using as permissions plugin!
2013-03-15 13:00:23 [INFO] [GetPerms] Downloading changelog and readme...

Is pissing me off.... It prevents my server from starting up, even though the config says not to download it:

#GetPerms config file.

#Config version. DO NOT CHANGE! Changing may cause undesirable results!
cfgV: "1.1.4"

#Is it the first run?
#DO NOT CHANGE! Even if it's still true after you run it, don't change it.
#Used to manage certain actions at startup.
firstRun: false

#Should the plugin send usage stats to metrics.griefcraft.com?
sendStats: false

#Display output on startup/shutdown/generation? Does not display error messages or
#debug messages even if debug is enabled. Will still display 'GetPerms vX.X.X enabled!'
silentMode: false

#Weather or not to automatically generate the permissions files on startup.
autoGen: true

#When true, if any plugin is removed, added, or updated, the permission files will be regenerated.
regenerateOnPluginChange: true

#Weather or not to check for updates.
autoUpdate: false

#Should the newest GetPerms.jar be downloaded?
autoDownload: false

#Disable the plugin once it finishes?
#When true, the commands to regenerate the permissions files will not work!
disableOnFinish: false

#Download the latest dev build? May have bugs and errors.
#If set to false, will only download the latest recommended build.
devBuilds: false

#Debug if needed for errors/bugs/info.
debugMode: false

Remove it now... This is as annoying as programs making you install yahoo toolbar, nobody wants this...

As of right now, Essentials is generated in a separate file, EssentialsPnodes.txt and EssentialsPnodesfull.txt. They will eventually be merged with pnodes.txt and pnodesfull.txt

@jeffjones33

A plugins.txt file is generated in GetPerm's config folder

Please look for a file called EssentialsPnodes.txt and EssentialsPnodesfull.txt in the root server directory as the permission nodes aren't directly supplied by the Essentials.jar file. These are in separate files because they are pulled from a database that I have.

If the aforementioned files are not found, please post a ticket with details so that I may accurately and quickly find the problem. Of course, if you don't have very many details, post a ticket anyway and try to answer as many questions as possible.

If they aren't provided in the plugin.yml, yes.

Will the database feature be able to grab permissions from commandbook and similar plugins?

I already DO use the Bukkit method that grabs i from the plugin.jar... As stated above 2 paragraphs below the header Installation, it reads:

"Plugins must be in the '/plugins' folder in order for GetPerms to grab the permission nodes from it. Also, GetPerms can only retrieve nodes that are in '[plugin_name].jar/plugin.yml' due to Bukkit's current methods. Not all plugins provide all permissions in plugin.yml, so there may be some missing."

What I'm stating there is that not all plugin authors place every permission node in their plugins' plugin.yml file. For those that do not put every permission node in the file, I am creating a database.

Let me know if you have anything else. :) And if its a bug or request, make a ticket for it :P
