Role Permission Keys
This function is currently in development and is being expanded - not all features are implemented.
SWPM keys are not substitute for a rank mod that limits use of Minecraft commands, or the commands of other mods.
Note: These permissions and restrictions are primarily being developed for use in official SWE servers, but are included in the mod for others needing similar functions for server management. The keys determined reflect the roles within our community and staff team, but have been adapted to generic role names for easy application on other servers.
Note: Role Permission Keys are by default only useful for multiplayer servers. This wiki page will assume multiplayer use.
Getting Started
Keys permit a user to access a specific set of commands relevant to the role (key). Currently non-configurable.
The list of commands accessible to each Key is listed below under the Key name.
To begin using the Keys:
A server manager with console access will need to run this command to assign the Owner Key.
/swpm assign key <player> swpm:owner
From there, the player with the Owner Key can then assign the necessary Keys to the desired staff.
The below Index states which Keys give which commands/permissions.
The Owner Key should not be given to anyone who is not absolutely necessary. The Owner Key grants access to assigning/revoking any Key to/from any player.
Why is the Owner Key required when normally all access is given via OP?
This mod is made to run on multiplayer servers which assumes the use of rankings, staff, and protections of dangerous permissions from undesirable uses. Some mods require OP access to be given to players to do tasks below the Mod/Admin level (e.g. World Edit and volunteer/paid Builders). It was deemed unsafe to make OP access default as any lower level staff with OP for tasks like building, could then assign/revoke any Key from anyone.
Key Rankings
Each set of commands is exclusive to the Key, regardless of ranking, meaning multiple keys will be required to run commands from different 'sets'. This Key system is based on hierarchy logic which assumes that an Admin will most likely need to be a Mod first before being promoted, therefore an Admin will already have the Mod Key and its permissions.
Ranks
The Keys are ordered by rank. More dangerous permissions are given to higher level ranks, like Mod or Admin.
Currently Active Keys (highest rank to lowest) with Assigned Minecraft Colors:
- Owner (Blue)
- Admin (Yellow)
- Mod (Gold)
Assigned/revoked by Admin Key and higher ranking. Technically not within Rankings.
Other:
- Blacklist Bypass (Black)
Default Access
There is currently no Key needed to run these commands.
This is intended in future to have these permissions transferred to the Player Key, requiring a permission system to obtain the Player Key. e.g. SWPM would automatically assign the Player Key once the player has agreed to the rules, to then gain access to the server.
