Permissions #20

Open Joe0 opened 13 years ago

Joe0 commented 13 years ago

How should permissions be done? Should it be implemented like the official server, or something like one of the Bukkit plugins?

grahamedgecombe commented 13 years ago

I'm not really sure how the Bukkit system works, having never looked into it, but I think something quite flexible like the way they were developed in the OpenCraft ACM fork would be quite good. It had a number of permissions that could be given out, and you could assign those permissions to groups or individual users in a config file.

That's exactly how the plugins for Bukkit do it.

Essentially, each command, or special 'operation' has a permission that goes along with it (provided the developer of the plugin isn't lazy).

Just had a go at writing up a system that Bukkit's permissions system seems to use. I used class names from my old projects (LivingEntity, Player) as examples.

It should compile; I'm just not sure about the list.
