Permission tree

In Allay, permissions are represented as a tree structure.

Representation of a Permission Node

Strings represent permissions, with dots indicating the parent-child relationship between nodes.

Examples:

• allay.cmd.tell
• allay.cmd.help
• allay.text.color

Permission Matching (Test Code in test/perm/PermTreeTest.java)

Example 1:

Let's say the player "cool_loong" has the permission allay.cmd.tell.

Then the player "cool_loong" has permissions for

• allay
• allay.cmd
• allay.cmd.tell

But does not have permissions for allay.cmd.help etc.

Example 2:

Let's say the player "cool_loong" has the permission allay.cmd.

Then the player "cool_loong" has permissions for

• allay
• allay.cmd

But does not have permissions for allay.cmd.tell, allay.cmd.help, etc.
