WEPIFFlat file permissions

The main features of these permissions are:

• You can give each user permissions.
• You can create a number of groups and give each group permissions.
• You can assign groups to a user and they will receive the group's permissions.
• Everyone is in the default group.

Flat file permissions is hierarchy-aware:

• Providing node1.node2 will also provide access to both node1.node2.node3 and node1.node2.node4
• There is no "deny" permission.

Usage

To use this permission system, create these two files in your server's root folder:

perms_groups.txt

admins:*
mods:worldedit
default:worldedit.navigation

That creates three groups. The colon (:) separates the fields. The first one is group name and the second is comma-separated list of permissions. "*" means that group can do everything.

perms_users.txt

sk89q:admins:*
tetsu:mods:commandbook.time,commandbook.teleport
alex:mods

That defines three users. The colon (:) separates the fields. The first field is the player's name, the second is a comma-separated list of groups, and the third is a comma-separated list of extra permissions.
