I know a few of my plugins leverage it heavily. I've even gotten to the point where if I'm just storing something simple then I use meta on the user to do it instead of my own plugin.
#luckperms-api
hollow grotto
rapid egret
yea its great
its also helping my sponge transition
as he provides a ton of features within LP itself
hollow grotto
For instance, I was having to do my own implementation of custom join/leave messages per-player, so that's stored in the player's meta. Otherwise it pulls from a pre-defined list of defaults, though I'm not entirely certain how I'm doing that piece yet.
rapid egret
ah i support that for claim enter/exit but its stored with claim data
hollow grotto
That'll be the interesting piece for me though because I'm doing the same. Sponge's plugin base isn't as large, but most if not all of it is actively supported.
rapid egret
but definitely reasonable to have as meta
hollow grotto
Fortunately, going from C# to Java isn't terribly painful and I'm able to figure most things out.
And when I'm not, Luck's usually willing to help out
hollow grotto
They generally have the same feel, they just have a slightly different syntax, like enums being all upper or methods being in camel case vs pascal case.
My biggest complaint is I often miss some of the syntax sugar from C#, though I hear Kotlin is supposed to help with that. I always see Kotlin in a mobile development context though so I'm not entirely sure how it does with just compiling to Java IL.
rapid egret
aye
hollow zodiac
okay I am back. @hollow grotto I dont want to have a bunch of custom permissions per each user...
I'd rather have custom contexts or metas on a per session basis
Kotlin syntax is like typescript...
I dont like how you have to declare var name ten the variable type.
feels so weird to me...
am I the only one?
You know what. Example code mwould make a lot of sense. Any example plugins that use the luckperms API? I'd love to tap those for knowledge.
hollow zodiac
there needs to be a way to unregister context calculators...
crystal sonnet
No matter what you do, don’t calculate anything expensive in your context calculator. They’re essentially called every time a permission is checked and should be made as efficient as possible
(They’re cached for a tiny bit but called often. Though you should really treat them like they are called every permission check)
hollow zodiac
❤ thank you
Okay so I wont do a calculator then.
I'll do a transient meta or transient manually set context somehow
crystal sonnet
I mean you certainly can do a context calculator
Just be sure to calculate the context data outside of it
@hollow zodiac
hollow zodiac
need to be able to unregister the calculator if i go that route though... otherwise reloading my plugin will turn into a memory leak
crystal sonnet
Pretty sure there’s a method to do that. Did you check?
hollow grotto
It's spigot. I'd not worry too much about it leaking. 😆
hollow zodiac
@crystal sonnet I did, but I was unable to find it...

Hey Taylor! Please don't tag staff members.
hollow zodiac
@hollow grotto I mean. I try to make sure my own plugins are leak free at least. And any plugin devs that dont properly handle reloads I avoid their plugins like the plague.
It's just bad practice to not do proper memory management
hollow grotto
Nah, you're totally right. I was just making a joke.
hollow zodiac
Oh. Sorry.

You're good!

hollow zodiac
searching for the unregister api right now...
hollow zodiac
"Everything in CachedData is indexed by Contexts, as this is how LuckPerms processes all lookups internally." Can someone paraphrase this?
contexts handle the indexing of cached data?
hollow zodiac
public void test(){
LuckPermsApi api = this.plugin.getLuckPermsAPI();
if (api == null) return;
ContextManager cm = api.getContextManager();
UserManager um = api.getUserManager();
CompletableFuture<User> lpUFuture = um.loadUser((UUID)null);
lpUFuture.thenAcceptAsync(lpU -> {
UserData cd = lpU.getCachedData();
// Need to somehow set the user's context so that their context cache will be:
// "SS3_RedstoneT1" = true (Is there a way to specify an int and then do a less/greater than operation?)
// "SS3_RedstoneT2" = true
// "SS3_RedstoneT3" = true
// "SS3_RedstoneT4" = true
// (And then I want the cache to be good to go until I update the cache again)
// Now modify the user here.
um.saveUser(lpU);
});
}
Thank you for your help so far by the way
rapid egret
You really should be using meta for that not contexts
astral heath
Anyone able to help me with an issue?
hollow zodiac
Okay so the meta is really just a caching mechanism then? I basically set meta on a player, then have to calculate contexts from the meta?
I really want to use the luckperms interface for configuring permissions, but... this is...
It would almost be easier to just do my own custom permission s configuration right now.
crystal sonnet
@astral heath try asking your question
astral heath
So I use Luckperms obvs... I want it so when a player enters a worlguarded area it will give them a certain permission is this possible?
charred sun
I left a question in general before I realized this channel existed. I can copy it over if requested, but it's currently last message in general.
hollow grotto
@astral heath The answer to your question is kind of. This can be done through region flags. It depends on what permissions you want to give though. I recommend looking at the WorldGuard wiki to see what you can do here.
If that doesn't meet your needs, you can write a custom context accepting a region name. Consumption would look like this:
/perm user <user> permission add essentials.fly true region=mountain_home
hollow zodiac
Hey, can I be added as a contributor to the Luckperms project so I can make a PR for the unregister and unsubscribe methods? my github is Pangamma

@hollow zodiac you don't need to be contributor of the project
Just fork it, make your changes and make a PR

@hollow zodiac If you need help, I've documented a procedure on this.
Well, technically I stole it from Microsoft
Actually, this guide may be better https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/

@astral heath there is an extension to LuckPerms called ExtraContexts, which will let you define worldguard regions as contexts for permission nodes

Are any special eclipse plugins needed?
hang on. it is building.
How was this compiling?
hollow zodiac
Could not fetch model of type 'BuildEnvironment' using Gradle distribution
hollow zodiac
Alright. I looked into the API....
you guys are using functional interfaces for the context creators...
great for lambdas...
There is a problem though.
in order for a removal to work, you need to be able to perform a .equals check.
By default, if no .equals method is specified, and the type is of a class or interface, the comparison will be on the pointer.
So if you have the pointer to the exact same instance you added, that instance can be used in the removal call.
As you can see, that plan just got thrown out the window.
In its current state there is no safe way to remove a context calculator.
Youd need to provide some form of key or batch set for it.
or perhaps return an integer value for the "ID" of the calculator in the map that could be used to remove it. Similar to how the bukkit scheduler works.
Man this is painful rn... no one cares about any of this but me.
hollow grotto
@hollow zodiac This is a C# best practice though I can imagine it would apply just about anywhere - I strongly recommend using the Unicode form of non-standard (read non-Utf8) characters when possible. The Yen character isn't terribly uncommon, but some encodings still don't support it. This is especially the case if you're going to be pushing to some type of git repository like GitHub or GitLab, as some peoples' computers may not fully support that character. If they do any pushes, that character may get scrambled or replaced by the dreaded □.

@hollow zodiac if I’m not entirely mistaken, remove the project from eclipse (make sure your working copy is unaltered) and run ./gradlew eclipse from the root dir (no ./ if it’s the windows cmd. Leave it if you use power shell)
And not having an equals is ok. You just have to store the object somewhere to be able to remove it

@crystal sonnet you're correct. If you have an instance of the object you can remove that object. But in one instance, you passed in the object to the method and this towards the list as a wrapped object. You have no access to that new object that was just stored

The API should work consistently across the board
use the API singleton on bungee
and did any of your messages show up in the console?
I mean, you're showing us a lot of code but nothing whatsoever of what is shown in the console
Did you register your event handlers in bungee?
Something tells me that you probably broke the chat one
Okay, stop bungeecord
go into the folder and delete the plugin jar, leae the debug messages in there, e.g. the "it works" one at the top of the event and reexport your plugin jar and restart
Now, when you chat at the bare minimum you should see the log message
Also, make sure that that Utils class is using the logger and not System.out
hollow zodiac
Are you un registering your plugins and all of your data every time you unload the plug in?
hollow zodiac
speaking of unregister... any chance of a fix today?
long moon
I know that you can remove event subscriptions
fun destruct() {
val iter = plugin.luckPermsApi.eventBus.getHandlers(UserDataRecalculateEvent::class.java).iterator();
while (iter.hasNext()) {
val handler = iter.next()
if ((handler.consumer.javaClass.classLoader as PluginClassLoader).plugin == plugin) {
handler.unregister()
}
}
}
(there is probably a more "proper" way than that, but that's what I went for)

Hello.
What causes this error:

On ln43 there is if(!event.isUser()){...}
also event.getTarget() instanceof User works fine 🤔
hollow grotto
> [03:19:47 WARN]: java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException
It's been a while since I've done Java, but don't you need private void myMethod() throws SomeException? It sounds like that may be the cause but I'm also really rusty.
sudden kelp
Somehow possible to remove a Meta Node without knowing the value/getting the value first?
hoary hornet
@hollow grotto As far as I know java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException is throwed because event.isUser() throws exception or rather when you try to call that method
hollow grotto
isUser(), judging by its name, should be safe. It should either return true or should some sort of cast fail or something it should return false. It shouldn't ever throw.
I'd say to file an issue and to use instanceof User for now.
hoary hornet
My assumption it's because of getTarget() but yeah instance of User worked I guess I should file an issue then.
jaunty pecan

Just calling MetaDataMap.remove(key) and it's done? Without building a node and unsetting it? I am not that advanced:D
Ah, guess create a MetaNode with the key and an empty string and call clearMathcing on Permissionholder and pass the created node?
hollow grotto
Extending off my question in #support-1, if I am going to be storing a collection of items in a user's meta, can I store that directly or should I do something like String.join(';' myCollection)? and store the collection as a string in a known format?
graceful cliff
Need some one on one help please and thank you
crystal sonnet
@hollow grotto I'd just do it with the join
As that makes the value easily humanly editable
@graceful cliff try asking your question first
hollow grotto
That's definitely true. Fortunately, this field should normally only hold one value, though I want to provide the capability to have more than one.
Essentially I'm making a plugin that has feature parity to EasyTitlesReloaded but for SpongeForge, but I want players to be able to have their own custom titles should they donate and buy one.
So I'm storing user-specific titles in user meta, as well as their currently selected title.
crystal sonnet
Yeah. Do it like that
marble pasture
hey guys can you help me with something?
how do you add a primary group with luckperms
hollow grotto
TL;DR you don't https://github.com/lucko/LuckPerms/wiki/Default-Groups
The default group is built in and is roughly analagous to @Everyone from Discord in that it's a role everyone has.
marble pasture
But I want to add a primary group for a plugin I'm using....
hollow grotto
What is it exactly you're trying to do?
marble pasture
Ok so I'm using a plugin called DiscordSRV
And when I type in chat it broadcats to discord
but It doesnt broadcast my prefix
But if I add a primary group to me
then it will broadcast that before my name
hollow grotto
Ah, ok. So your primary group in that context whatever group you have with the highest weight.
Typically, default has a weight of 0 and that goes up until you hit your admin or owner group, which should have a weight higher than any other group. That's also how prefixes are determined in-game.
If you run /lp user <username> info it should show what your primary group was resolved to be.
hollow grotto
The primary group is calculated based on the most superior group the user is a member of.
For instance, if I were to list the groups I am a member of with their weights, I'd have the following:
default - 0
mod - 90
admin - 100
Because the admin group has the highest weight, that makes it the most superior, and therefore that is calculated to be my primary group.
If you want to see all groups and their weights, you can use /lp listgroups. To configure a weight for a group, use /lp group <group> setweight <weight>
marble pasture
So if I'm owner I set 100
hollow grotto
The important thing is that superior groups have a higher weight than inferior groups. The exact weight doesn't matter, but you should use something that gives you ample breathing room in case you need to add groups later. I used 100, but you could use 500 or 1000 or whatever you like. Just don't get too crazy with it.
hollow grotto
That works
marble pasture
Ok, but how do I create a group

Could be yes

Could you add a way to grab all permissions from a ContextSet without going through nodes?
I'm currently building it myself internally

I don't think tracks exist how you think they do. They just set up a handy advancement system. A group can be a member of a track, but a player can not. As far as the LP Player object is concerned, it's just a member of a group.
If you wanted to see that, you'd need to get a collection of all of the groups the player is a member of and then test each group to see if it's part of the track you want.

But setting a node with the same key does not overwrite the old key and just adds another "limit = 3". I couldnt figure out how to delete or overwrite a meta via key without having the value. Can anyone tell me how to delete a meta node when just having the key?
vagrant dome
int permsamount = Main.lp.getUser(target.getUniqueId()).getOwnNodes().size();
List<Node> perms = Main.lp.getUser(target.getUniqueId()).getOwnNodes(); ```
this is the way im getting the permissions but it shows other stuff aswell which i dont want how would i fix this?What's the problem you're trying to fix here? If you don't need the other data, don't use it.
Also, just use int permsamount = perms.size()
@vagrant dome
sweet path
Is there any way to detect when a group receives or is removed permissions?
vagrant dome
@opal salmon i want to get the players permissions but it shows like this https://paste.helpch.at/okabunovon.cs
List<Node> perms = Main.lp.getUser(target.getUniqueId()).getOwnNodes();
sender.sendMessage(C.color("&7Permissions &8(&e"+ perms.size() +"&8) &7: &e" + perms).replace("[", "").replace("]", ""));```You are invoking List.toString here, which probably doesn't get the output you want.
I suggest doing a forEach on perms and sending the Node.getPermission()
Be aware that a permission might be negated, so check with Node.getValue()
@vagrant dome
crystal sonnet
@sweet path yes. There are events. Check the docs
They are generally pretty generic, so your best bet would be to filter them yourself

Hey can anyone help me with this?

Thanks! 😄
nvm
long moon
was juuuust about to ask "what's wrong with the loadUser method?"

xD I didn't realize that method actually exists 😛
crystal sonnet
Step 1: Make a feature request/issue asking about a feature
Step 2: Check if that feature already exists
Fucking. Genius 🤪

So I'm running a copy of the plugin on the proxy (bungee) and the sub servers, from a proxy plugin how would i get an instance of the api?

Wrong channel, there is a wiki page on migrating

Does the Bungee plugin not instantiate an instance of the Api?

permission.getExpiry().getDay()+"d. "+permission.getExpiry().getHours()+"h. "+permission.getExpiry().getMinutes()+"m."
Should return 29days 23hrous 59minutes or similar
something to 30 days
crystal sonnet
Is that a question or a reply to someone?
crystal sonnet
Are you trying to make a GUI for LP?
crystal sonnet
Then I don’t understand what you’re even asking
brave saffron
I add a parent group for 30 days
Luckperms in console says 30 days
But api shows 1 day, 16h and 11mins
brave saffron
You are fast enough that I didn't manage to ask 😄
What could be an issue, that permission.getExpiry().getDay() doesn't show the correct day?
and others too
crystal sonnet
What does it say by now?
brave saffron
Didn't understand the question
brave saffron
Yes
crystal sonnet
Ok. Then I don’t know
brave saffron
😄
Will try debuging, maybe async causing the problem
Is time in getTime() in miliseconds?
Ohhh, I got it
permission.getExpiry().getDay()+"d. "+permission.getExpiry().getHours()+"h. "+permission.getExpiry().getMinutes()+"m." will show when it expires, not how much time is left
crystal sonnet
That makes sense
autumn tide

Hey guys
I want get the all player groups, and I need help
I'm try this:
public static List<String> getGroups(Player player)
{
List<String> groupsString = new ArrayList<>();
if (player == null)
return groupsString;
LuckPermsApi api = LuckPerms.getApi();
if (api != null) {
Set<Group> groups = api.getGroups();
if (groups != null && !groups.isEmpty()) {
for (Group group : groups) {
if (group != null) {
if (player.hasPermission("group." + group.getName())) {
String displayName = group.getDisplayName();
if (displayName != null && !displayName.isEmpty()) {
groupsString.add(displayName);
}
}
}
}
}
}
return groupsString;
}
But it's not working
crystal sonnet
What is it doing then?
nocturne elbow
the groupsString retuns empty
crystal sonnet
Check the javadocs of getDisplayName. It might be that it returns nothing if no display name is set @nocturne elbow
hollow grotto
String displayName = group?.getDisplayName() ?? group?.getName();
Erm, wait, ignore me
That's the weird C#/Java crossbreed code again
hollow grotto
That should be very well documented.
nocturne elbow
I already solved this! tnks
hollow zodiac
It would be super cool if I could use 4.3.100 or whatever it is for my maven API work
If this thing worked it could be automatic.
This is why I don't like maven. I can't just pop in a jar dependency and call it good.
brave saffron
Just a quick note, to the mods:
LuckPerms GUI doesn't use API to change any of the groups, tracks or users information (permissions, etc). Plugin uses API to get information, but only for that. It runs commands as a player to change that information (like adding a prefix plugin runs command as a player /pl group $group prefix add "prefix"). So if user has any issues with Luckperms, it really isn't because of the GUI, and you can support those users
crystal sonnet
Doesn’t mean we know which ones it uses
And out of principle I don’t support unofficial addons
crystal sonnet
Maybe except the ones I know throughly
brave saffron
But it doesn't change any information via API, so that is equal as if player itself run those commands
You can dont give support to addons, but the base principle how GUI works is that evey change is made via commands
So if something doesn't work, GUI has not a slightest effect on it
crystal sonnet
Again. I don't know which commands it runs @brave saffron
brave saffron
Example: "lp user "+g.getName()+" parent add "+message
crystal sonnet
Sure
I get that
But I don't know which action runs which command
Also there could be errors in the implementation creating invalid commands
Especially with edge cases
Like spaces could be passed incorrectly
So unless you provide us with a way to know which commands have been run it's beyond our scope to help
And even if you do, you can't expect us to do support for your plugin
Even if it's an addon
Or do you provide addons for your plugin that you are not familar with (and didn't create)
brave saffron
Tools.sendCommand(p, "lp user "+g.getName()+" unset "+'"'+permission.getPermission()+'"'+" "+Tools.contextConverter(permission.getFullContexts()));
This command is used everywhere where I remove any permission
crystal sonnet
Posting your code won't change anything
crystal sonnet
Then I honestly don't understand you informing us that your plugin just uses commands
brave saffron
I sow a message that a person had issues with LuckPerms, and someone wrote that they don't support addons (even when the issue still existed without it)
So I just want to make clear that GUI doesn't change anything with API, everything is with commands
crystal sonnet
As long as they're not using commands, it's not our buisness. Even if it's not within your addon
brave saffron
So if a plugin runs the same command as it would be done normally, then it won't be supported?
If you have issues while changing any information, first try the same thing with LuckPerms commands before contacting me or LuckPerms developers!
Then this line is needed in the resource
Thanks for clarifying it
crystal sonnet
I can’t provide support if I don’t know the commands the user is running. Or the GUI running for them

Does UserManager.loadUser return a valid user instance even for players that never joined?

But the database entry for this uuid is still default - what am I doing wrong?
Please, can someone have a look, it's kinda urgent 😅
hollow grotto
@opal salmon This is how I do it. This is tested and it works.
public void addToGroup(Player player, String groupName) {
// player.sendMessage("In Add Method");
User user = loadUser(player);
Group group = luckPermsApi.getGroupManager().getGroup(groupName);
if (group == null) {
player.sendMessage("Group " + groupName + " not found!");
return;
}
Node node = luckPermsApi.getNodeFactory().makeGroupNode(groupName).build();
user.setTransientPermission(node);
}
Oh, wait, you're trying to set the primary group...
opal salmon
Thanks for your response!
I am, but this might be sufficient. Will test asap
hollow grotto
fwiw this comes from a class I built called LuckPermsTool. When the plugin loads, I do the following:
// Hook LuckPerms
luckPermsTool = new LuckPermsTool(this);
if (luckPermsTool == null) {
log("Unable to hook LuckPerms!");
return;
}
log("LuckPerms hooked!");
Because the LuckPerms API is a hard dependency for this plugin, if it is unable to load it, then it calls return, which aborts loading the plugin.
Here's the relevant ctor
private final LFUtils plugin;
public LuckPermsApi luckPermsApi;
public LuckPermsTool(LFUtils plugin) {
this.plugin = plugin;
RegisteredServiceProvider<LuckPermsApi> provider = Bukkit.getServicesManager().getRegistration(LuckPermsApi.class);
if (provider != null) {
this.luckPermsApi = provider.getProvider();
}
}
After that, whenever I need to do something with LuckPerms, I use the tool.
@EventHandler
public void onAfkChangeEvent(AfkStatusChangeEvent event) {
IUser user = event.getAffected();
Player player = user.getBase();
// player.sendMessage("In AfkListener Event!");
// getValue = isGoingAfk()
if (event.getValue()) {
// plugin.luckPermsTool.addAfkPrefix(player);
plugin.luckPermsTool.addToGroup(player, "afk");
} else {
// plugin.luckPermsTool.removeAfkPrefix(player);
plugin.luckPermsTool.removeFromGroup(player, "afk");
}
plugin.nametagEditTool.refresh(player);
}
So...
user.setPrimaryGroup(group); returns DataMutateResult.FAIL
Any idea what might cause this? @crystal sonnet
frank driftBOT
Hey Flare! Please don't tag staff members.
opal salmon
sry
crystal sonnet
@opal salmon yes. Setting the primary group is not the same as assigning a group
And with default settings it does nothing, as the primary group is calculated automatically
You’ll need to assign the user the group

compact zinc
Does getPrimaryGroup return the group with the highest weight?
Also UserPromoteEvent doesnt seem to get called when I add a user to a group
proud crypt
probably because it only fires when you promote along a track
not sure but that would be my reasoning for it
compact zinc
Yeah that's kinda was I thought when it didnt work. Is there an event that gets fired when a player is added to a group?
compact zinc
How does getPrimaryGroup work?
Will it return the group with the highest weight the player has?
viral comet
how do i get the player rank
jaunty pecan
rank or ranks?
in luckperms, players can inherit from multiple groups
you can get their "primary group" - maybe that's what you're looking for
compact zinc
What can cause a NodeMutateEvent?
Also is there a better event to check for when a player's group is changed than NodeMuate?
willow dust
what’s a primary group?
compact zinc
uhhh depends on your settings. If you want to see what primary group would return for a player just do /lp user [player] info
crystal sonnet
@compact zinc NodeMutateEvent is fired on any change
Though check it's Java docs
@willow dust And the primary group is like "the most important group a player has"
LP only even has that becuase Vault mandates it
upper nacelle
Anyone know how to get who gave a user a group/permission? Or when someone got it? I found api.getActionLogger(), however I can't figure out how to link it to api.getUser("").getPrimaryGroup()
hollow grotto
I don't believe LP audits that by default. If it does, it's most likely in a log file somewhere, not stored in a database.
Why do you need to link it to a user's primary group?
crystal sonnet
Yes it stores that in the database @hollow grotto
@upper nacelle my guess is that you’ll have to iterate over the logs to find the most recent appropriate change
hollow grotto
Oh? TIL. That's outstanding.
upper nacelle
I am creating a system that shows who gave a player a rank and when. Looks like this might not be easily doable. rip
crystal sonnet
Yeah. The logs aren't really designed for that
And there could also be manual changes to the database
hollow grotto
Your best bet might be to hook... there's an event for that, but I don't remember what it's called. I'd say watch for that event and then record that information yourself. If you use Helper, you can hook into an H2 or MySQL database pretty easily.

hardy halo
is it possible to add a transient permission trough the LP api? and if it is how would do that is there some example i can look up?
or i just need ability to add and remove permission to a specific player
crystal sonnet
If it wasn’t possible, I wouldn’t have mentioned it 😉
Not sure if there are any examples on it, but all examples can be found on the wiki @hardy halo
Though in any case, the Javadocs should explain pretty much everything
hardy halo
yea i figured how to use it did what i needed, will see later if it works when he tests it @crystal sonnet
frank driftBOT
Hey Lynx! Please don't tag staff members.
crystal sonnet
Awesome
nocturne elbow
Hey all just sanity checking? User#setPermission(Node) where Node is a group node == add user to group?
I see User#setPrimaryGroup -- but I've handled that case, now just need to handle how to add a regular weighted group.
crystal sonnet
You are correct
And you can completely ignore the primary group method
It’s for settting which of players groups is the primary one. And not for changing the groups the plate is in @nocturne elbow
nocturne elbow
aha!
so I always use setPermission(Node) to get them in there, but setPrimaryGroup to actually signal the primary?
crystal sonnet
Yes. But by default the primary group is calculated automatically
So attempting to change it won’t even do anything
Just ignore it
nocturne elbow
Meaning what? Let me give some context on what I'm doing. I am creating a plugin to hook between AdvancedAchievements and LuckPerms. Essentially, when a user receives an achievement it runs through a list of arbitrary requirements on my end and then applies a group or groups. There is an option however to add a group that will be primary to the user. What's the proper way to set the primary group for a user?
(If it's calculated.)
crystal sonnet
It means that whenever the groups of a player change, LP looks at them and automatically selects one of them as the primary group
At least with the default settings
nocturne elbow
I see. Hmm ok. I was looking at this as if the primary group would override the weighted prefixes. However, if I'm wrong in that sense then I understand what you're saying by "ignore it"
Thank you!
crystal sonnet
Prefixes are completely independent of the primary group
nocturne elbow
Hey again. I have stopped worrying about primary groups -- however, even after receiving a successful DateMutateResult, according to lp user <player> info the group has not changed.
Here's my output indicating success: https://hastebin.com/adacetukom.md
Here's the code if you want to look: https://hastebin.com/esopabugeh.kt
Do I need to do something to merge immediately or something?
Mmm might need this! https://puu.sh/D0K5D/ce1cdcbfb5.png
No luck (😉 ) 😦
If the group is in a track, am I required to promote?
long moon
Have you like, considered saving your changes?
nocturne elbow
that's what im asking
do I need to do that? Docs do not state so
it says just call the method

How are you including the LP API in your workspace @hybrid remnant ?
crystal sonnet
As I said. For basic stuff like that, there are examples on the wiki
And you haven’t answered my question
hybrid remnant
yes i have
crystal sonnet
I asked how you include the LP API
hybrid remnant
ohh im getting confused!
Can I start again, how would I go around implementing a way to give perms to players. Can I not just add LuckPerms to my build path
crystal sonnet
Also you should use gradle or maven
hybrid remnant
gradle i hate, ill use maven
crystal sonnet
Then it’ll automatically include javadocs and sources in your IDE
hybrid remnant
yh which is good
crystal sonnet
So hovering over classes and methods will show you the docs for that method
hybrid remnant
Yes, thats easier. Bukkit doesnt do that, how would I change a normal java poject into a maven one, or do i have to restart?
vernal sonnet
@hybrid remnant https://github.com/lucko/LuckPerms/wiki/Developer-API
hybrid remnant
crystal sonnet
Bukkit can also be included with Maven or Gradle
And in fact should
As that also will include javadocs
Which is beyond helpful
Though out of interest, what do you dislike about gradle?
hybrid remnant
Ik thanks. Can I make a java project into a j=maven one?
hybrid remnant
oh ok
I have had bad experiences with it... like when trying to make mods for forge and other cases
crystal sonnet
Ok. Really up to you
hybrid remnant
well thanks for the help

Though it’s far superior in pretty much every way. Except maybe popularity
And for a basic java project it’s ridiculously simple
Though in any case pick one and start familiarizing yourself with it

Hello! So I am working on a custom staffchat plugin for bungee. I am curious on how to use LuckPerms as an add-on, or if this is even possible.
teal tartan
Like get prefix or what?
tacit tiger
Yeah
So I want to replace [prefix] with their prefix over bungeecord.
Pretty simple except for getting their prefix
Oh wait I just figured out that I can use vault to do this.
That makes a lot more sense.
Now the only other thing I have to figure out is how to check their permission. Will probably use vault also.
neat jackal
How to check for permissions:
Player p = how.yougettheplayer();
if(p.hasPermission("some.perm")) {
//if he has
//some code
} else {
//if don't has
//some code
}
Or moment, bungeecord
Not plain bukkit
neat jackal
That works for Bukkit Plugins, but I don't know if it works for Bungee too
tacit tiger
It may work for bungee, but bungee perms are different then bukkit perms

@tacit tiger lp has it's api
tacit tiger
For bungeecord?
tacit tiger
hmm is there any documentation for using the bungee api?
crystal sonnet
@tacit tiger the LP API is the same for all platforms
eager lark
why does api return "default" group as primary when player has another one on the server he is on
hollow grotto
Is that player on the hub server and the world world when that line is hit in code?
crystal sonnet
@eager lark does helper have a higher group weight?
proud crypt
they posted in general, it does
LP is displaying the correct primary group (as you can see in that screenshot) but the API isn't
crystal sonnet
Ah ok
hollow grotto
I think that's his IDE being over-protective
It's possibly seeing getUser and saying "that could return null"
crystal sonnet
But since the player should be online from what I understand, that should never happen
sick elbow
Yea, it didn't do that before
crystal sonnet
It’s likely throwing elsewhere

thanks for the help 👍
hollow grotto
For future reference, I'll often break down code like this when I get errors like that.
{
try
{
var api = LuckPerms.getApi();
var user = api.getUser(player.getUniqueId());
var group = user.getPrimaryGroup();
}
catch (NullPointerException ex)
{
// ...
}
}```Splitting it into multiple lines helps the JIT debugger when stepping through your code
(also I know the var keyword gets a lot of flak in Java but I'm a C# dev so fite me)
hollow grotto
Just as a general rule, only use var when the type is obvious from context.
// good - user is a User
var user = api.getUser();
// bad - what is file? A string array? A stream?
var file = input.read();
yes the player the player was in the hub, the api don't found primary group
rapid egret
@hollow grotto you shouldn't be catching an NPE like that...If the user is not loaded, you should be attempting to load it. If it is still null at that point, then the user has never logged into the server.
use LP's UserManager
ah @sick elbow was making the call 😃
https://github.com/lucko/LuckPerms/blob/master/api/src/main/java/me/lucko/luckperms/api/LuckPermsApi.java#L263
As per docs, it can return null if not loaded
I recommend always using the UserManager to handle all user operations
hollow grotto
Good point. That was more of a demonstration of splitting your code into multiple lines for debugging purposes, though I should have mentioned the user manager.
sick elbow
thanks bloodshot 👍

Once you split all of the properties, put in some debug logic, either sending results to the player or the console, the console being preferred.
This will let you know what's failing, if you're not getting any explicit exceptions in the console

You have a List of nodes, each of those does represents an entry on the users permissions, e.g. groups, meta, etc; There are methods exposed on Node, which allow you to check what type of node a node is, meaning that you can take that list and filter out what you want

@keen tree You mean next highest group by weight or the next highest group in a track?
Both can be done, just very differently.

Just api in where I can find it. How to use/ call.

Just a quick question: is it possible to create and save a User from a UUID alone, without having an associated Player?
crystal sonnet
@gilded bane as far as I know, that should just work
gilded bane
Okay, just checking
Wasn't sure because getUser's docs say it throws a NPE if the user doesn't exist
crystal sonnet
I mean LP can handle unknown UUIDs just fine. I’d be surprised if the API didn’t

Hello all! Not sure if this is the right place, if not my appologies.
Completely new to Luck perms and how to make it work for me. I'm configuring a pixelmon server using the sponge version of Luck Perms in conjunction with Nucleus.
I've run into some problems...
-Though I've managed to set basic perms for users mods and admins don't get access to any of the admin level commands even if I can see the codes for these in the /lp group <group> edit tool.
-I'm also unable to find how to add basic minecraft commands like /gamemode to Luck Perms in a way that actually allows it XD
-I can not seem to figure out how to re-enable my ability to edit protected spawn areas.
-Lastly I have not been able to figure out how to set my self as server owner, with 0 restrictions.
I am using Nodecraft Server hosting.
Thank you all for your time and help! This Discord has become my last fallback for answers having spent a good 6 hours researching and testing last night
modern veldt
@deft scroll still need help?
deft scroll
I do!
modern veldt
Okay let's go to general since this is for API questions
velvet hatch
i have pixelmon installed but the auto fill for pixelmon and pixel extras is not showing up in the editor neither is normal minecraft
@modern veldt
modern veldt
I am pretty sure you can search up the pixelmon permissions on google
Also this is API chat please use general
modern veldt
Did you give yourself the right group?
velvet hatch
yes
velvet hatch
i put the command it said into my user group and myself just the same need to be OP
stuff from nucleus works tho
modern veldt
Because you are doing something wrong with the permissions
This isn't a LuckPerms problem i am sure.
velvet hatch
i just did another command it works
im trying to add the check spawns plugin for pixelmon and then it doesnt work but others seem to
modern veldt
Maybe the plugin isn't working at all, And it isn't a permissions error
velvet hatch
luckperms or pixelmon

Hello, I'm trying to set the permission node keepinventory.enabled to false, but it doesn't seem to be working.
Would someone be able to tell me if I'm doing something wrong? Thanks 😄

Hi ! I use the bungeecord api and to get the suffix I have to get the context but I don't know how it work , my code is ```java
public String getSuffix(ProxiedPlayer player) {
User user = LuckPerms.getApi().getUser(player.getDisplayName());
Contexts contexts = LuckPerms.getApi().getContextForUser(user).orElseThrow(() -> new IllegalStateException("Could not get LuckPerms context for player " + player));
MetaData metaData = user.getCachedData().getMetaData(contexts);
String suffix = metaData.getSuffix();
System.out.println(suffix);
return suffix;
}```
Don’t use player.getDisplayName(). Use player directly when getting the user @sinful moat
sinful moat
Ok
crystal sonnet
The wiki also has examples on how to get stuff @sinful moat
sinful moat
The method getUser doesn't accept a ProxiedPlayer so I get the UUID
And it doesn't work
crystal sonnet
That doesn’t answer my question
But as I said. The wiki contains plenty of examples on how to get stuff from the API
sinful moat
I'm already looking for an exemple but I don't found
crystal sonnet
Did you find the examples at all?
sinful moat
I find that exemple Contexts contexts = api.getContextManager().getApplicableContexts(player); but if I replace api with Luckperms.getApi() it tell me that I have to cast it to an object
drifting valley
Yeah, create an object and then run that command LuckpermsAPI api = Luckperms.getApi();

LuckPerms chat-prefix not working on my minecraft server.. Why?
i have essentials-chat
please help
@here
gilded bane
This channel is for developers making use of LuckPerms' API
If you need help using LP, ask in #support-1
fiery helm
Okay 😄
sinful moat
I've a problem , I did everything you said but eclipse tell me I have to cast api , but it cast at LuckpermsPlugin
gilded bane
LuckPermsPlugin isn't part of the API; what dependency are you using

Hey guys. Haven't really been active with Minecraft since college as well as work but I used to host the server called "RuneCraft" for five years.
I currently work as a SR Identity and Access Manager for a company and was looking for project opportunities to work on for identity governance to put on my resume. Do you guys need support in the development of your plugin?
Experienced in:
Creating connectors between third party applications and our enterprise application.
Creating schemas to extract consumer data and map it to the enterprise application.
Code optimization and documentation for enterprise applications.
crystal sonnet
@clever charm Luck is the sole writer of the plugin. Though I think he’s good for now
In any case, the plugin is open source, so feel free to jump onto issues marked as “help wanted”
hollow grotto
I was at one point looking at hooking into the LP API and providing AD Sync, but that's sorta on the backburner.
Essentially it would allow mapping LP groups to AD groups and Minecraft users to AD accounts.
So when a player joins the server, it does a check for AD groups and ensures they're in all of the corresponding LP groups.
And when one is updated, it updates the other.
But due to the nature of the component, I definitely feel a stand-alone plugin would be better. That's probably best in your case too, Ri - I'm sure these tools would be useful for someone and may even get an honorable mention on the LP readme, but I feel that functionality might be a bit too localized for a majority of users to leverage.
clever charm
Is there not a standalone plugin for that already @hollow grotto ?
Seems like something that would be developed already haha
hollow grotto
No idea. This was just something on my to-do list
I've not actually researched it yet
clever charm
Time to develop it before you kek
hollow grotto
Tbch though, I'm not sure if that would've been developed already. We may be the only two people on the planet interested in hooking LP/Minecraft to AD.
Most people have no interest
hollow grotto
I'd probably do this in two parts - an LD API that maps users by GUID to the corresponding AD GUID, and a second plugin which hooks that API and LP's to perform group syncs
That said, it'd probably need to be a read only API for safety reasons.
I doubt Minecraft's a very secure platform (doesn't need to be). I mean, it's secure enough for what it is, but if you give it write access to an AD environment, you gotta be very careful.
clever charm
I'd much rather just support write requests than read requests since if you had the plugin able to read the ad user if it was misconfigured you could have staff members get members personal information on their ad account. If it was writing it could cause data issues if massive amounts of AD users were generated but at least the server wouldn't be able to read in PII.
The connectors would be writing
minecraft server to ad server, then having a third party application such as your website reading from the ad server.
If you wanted to read from the AD I'd have the server able to read from it but not allow any ingame commands even if the user is op if that is possibly from the Minecraft server. Haven't touched programming in minecraft for a while though so not sure what would be supported or not.

Hello, I want to use the API in a BungeeCord plugin. But I dont know where to "register" it. I just found this: https://github.com/lucko/LuckPerms/wiki/Developer-API#obtaining-an-instance-of-the-api
crystal sonnet
No need to register it. Just use it @nocturne elbow
nocturne elbow
So LuckPerms.getApi() is just enough?
crystal sonnet
Yup
gilded bane
getApi works on all platforms, but those platforms with a services manager have an additional way to retrieve it
hollow grotto
I've mentioned this before, but while LuckPerms.getApi() works fine, for safety reasons I've wrapped it in a class called LuckPermsTool
public class LuckPermsTool {
private final LFUtils plugin;
public LuckPermsApi luckPermsApi;
public LuckPermsTool(LFUtils plugin) {
this.plugin = plugin;
RegisteredServiceProvider<LuckPermsApi> provider = Bukkit.getServicesManager().getRegistration(LuckPermsApi.class);
if (provider != null) {
this.luckPermsApi = provider.getProvider();
}
}
// Utility methods here
}```That way, if lpTool.luckPermsApi == null I can abort the start of my program or else handle it as needbe. If it's non-essential, my utility methods are configured to be non-op (i.e. they don't do anything).
It also gives me one centralized location that I can use for any utility methods I may need, like adding/removing group memberships and so forth.

java.lang.IllegalStateException: API is not loaded.
How to be sure that it's loaded?
hollow grotto
The safest way is probably the way described in my code sample above.
Since swallowing exceptions is considered bad practice, you can do something like this in your onEnable():
// Hook LuckPerms
RegisteredServiceProvider<LuckPermsApi> provider = Bukkit.getServicesManager().getRegistration(LuckPermsApi.class);
if (null == provider) {
log("Unable to hook LuckPerms!");
return;
}
log("LuckPerms hooked!");
Be sure to also place it in the dependencies section of your plugin.yml (assuming you're building a Bukkit plugin). This will delay Bukkit loading your plugin until at least all of its dependencies are loaded.
