Configuring PurePerms

I'm setting the groups permissions and i'm wondering how can i block the player from using (let's say) whitelist commands.
What I'm doing is using - '*' and then add exceptions like - -pocketmine.command.whitelist
So here is how i do it

Code:

Admin:
  alias: adm
  isDefault: true
  inheritance: []
  permissions:
  - '*'
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.add
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.disable
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.enable
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.reload
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.remove
  - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.list
  worlds: []

isn't there any simpler way than this. and i'm doing this for iprotector commands and other ones.
Thanks

 

Why are you removing all the whitelist subcommand permissions? I'm pretty sure it would work by just removing pocketmine.command.whitelist

 

Nope. I tried it before, didn't work

 

I know that this doesn't really answer the question, but you probably shouldn't use the * permission (ever). Lots of plugins have default: false permissions for stuff you usually wouldn't want and you'd have to check each and every one. It's probably less work to just add the permissions the Admins should have.

The problem is that * will go through each registered permission node on the server and give it to the player.

For example, even if you remove permission for the parent node "pocketmine.command.whitelist", the nodes "pocketmine.command.whitelist.add", ".disable", ".enable" ... are still on the player.

 

i know that * goes into every permission node and that's why i used - -pocketmine.command.whitelist.add etc.... So is it much better to give the permissions instead of using *
?

 

Usually, yes
