Fabric
On Fabric, the only system provided is Minecraft's op permissions system. Because of that, PermissionsEx provides all of its own integrations with Minecraft itself, and some other mods. We are happy to work with other mods to implement permissions checks as well -- feel free to pop into our Discord.
Minecraft permissions
We aim to replace every op check in vanilla (i.e. unmodded) Minecraft with a permissions check. To that end, we provide the following permissions:
Permission
Purpose
minecraft.command.<command>
Use the command command. Commands available to all users in vanilla should be granted by default.
minecraft.bypass.whitelist
Allow users to log in to a whitelisted server without being whitelisted
minecraft.bypass.spawnprotection
Allow users to build within the spawn protection radius
minecraft.bypass.playercount
Allow users to log in even when the server has reached its player limit
minecraft.bypass.movespeed.player
Bypass the "Player moved too fast" limit
minecraft.bypass.movespeed.vehicle
Bypass the "Player moved too fast" kick when in a vehicle
minecraft.bypass.chatspeed
Bypass the kick for sending chat messages faster than allowed by the game
minecraft.updatedifficulty
Allow setting the game's difficulty
minecraft.<commandblock/jigsawblock/structureblock>.<view/edit/break>
Allow placing/editing/viewing/breaking a command block, jigsaw block, or structure block depending on which permissions are given
minecraft.debugstick.use.<target>
Allow using the debug stick on the targeted block. Targets are specified as <namespace>.<item> (e.g. minecraft.stone). Some functionality may require being in creative mode due to client limitations.
minecraft.nbt.<query/load>.<entity/block>
Allow placing blocks or entities while preserving their NBT data (BlockEntityTag and such)
minecraft.selector
Allow using selectors in commands
minecraft.adminbroadcast.send
Allow sending admin broadcasts to other players
minecraft.adminbroadcast.receive
Receive messages sent to "ops" from command output
Subjects for Minecraft entities
Players are represented as users
The server console is represented as the subject system:Console
Command blocks are represented as commandblock:<name>, where the default command block name is @
Sign representation has not been decided yet
RCON connections are represented as system:Recon (Yes, that is Recon -- that's what the Rcon command source is named internally.)
Functions executed through tags #minecraft:tick and #minecraft:load tags are represented as function:minecraft:tick and function:minecraft:load respectively
NOTE: functions currently only perform permissions checks when they're loaded, not on individual executions. This needs to be resolved for function permissions to actually be useful.
Contexts
Context Key
Example Value
Description
world
minecraft:the_nether
The identifier of a dimension a subject is currently in
dimension_type
minecraft:the_nether
The identifier of the type of dimension a subject is in
remoteip
127.0.0.1
The IP address a subject is connecting from
localhost
myminecraftserver.com
The hostname a client is connecting to the server with
localip
[2607:f8b0:400a:801::200e]
The ip (on the server) that is receiving the connection from a subject
localport
25565
The port (on the server) that the client is connecting to
function
permissionsex:test_function
The function currently executing. When nested functions are in progress, multiple values will be specified.
Other mods
We provide a permission resolver for WorldEdit so its commands check PermissionsEx for permissions
Developer information
PEX provides a significant level of integration into Fabric. This provides some details on what we look for when trying to provide permissions checks
Permission check methods
ServerCommandSource.hasPermissionLevel
Entity.allowsPermissionLevel
Entity.getPermissionLevel
PlayerEntity.isCreativeLevelTwoOp
ServerPlayNetworkHandler.isServerOwner
MinecraftServer.isOwner
MinecraftServer.getPermissionLevel
PlayerManager.isOperator
PlayerManager.areCheatsAllowed
PlayerManager.getOpList
PlayerManager.getOpNames
OperatorList.get
Known outstanding issues
Broadcast to ops should have the subject type of the source in the permission somehow
Check whether we enforce creative mode for certain items (debug stick, etc)
Changing permissions is very slow -- investigate this
Client checks op for
F3 Debug toggle creative/spectator
Debug stick and other technical blocks
Waterfall/BungeeCord
Sponge (v7 and v8)
