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.

Keys permit a user to access specific set of command relevant to the role (key). 
Each set of commands is exclusive to the key, meaning multiple keys may be required to run commands from different sets.

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.


Key Overview and 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.
Each set of commands is exclusive to the Key, meaning multiple keys will be required to run commands from different 'sets'.

In multiplayer servers, OP does NOT immediately grant full access to any SWPM function. 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 could then assign/revoke any Key from anyone which could be overwhelmingly harmful to a server's defense against management abuse.

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):

  1. Owner
  2. Admin
  3. Mod

Other:
(assigned/revoked by Admin Key and higher ranking. Technically not within Rankings)

  1. Blacklist Bypass
To begin using the Keys:

A server manager with console access will need to run this command to assign the Owner Key (recommended to assign the Key to oneself).

/swpm assign key <player> swpm:owner

From there, the player with the Owner Key can then assign the necessary Keys to the desired staff at their discretion, using the below index of command sets per Keys.

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.
