Overview

DO NOT POST QUESTION/BUG-REPORTS/REQUESTS IN THE REVIEWS

It is difficult to carry a conversation in the reviews. If you have a question/bug-report/request please use the Thread for that. You are more likely to get a response and help that way.

NOTE:

This documentation was last updated for version 2.0.4.

Please go to github for the most up-to-date documentation.

You can also download this plugin from this page.

A plugin that simplifies the login process. Instead of asking for commands, users simply chat away.

I also provides for a number of tweaks that can improve the usability of SimpleAuth.

Register process

Player connects for the first time. They are prompted to enter a NEW password. They enter their password directly, without having to enter /register.

They are asked for the password again to confirm. They re-enter their password (again without /register).

Login process

Player connects again. They are prompted to enter their login password. They type their login password directly (without /login). And they are in.

Documentation

Commands

  • chpwd <old-pwd>
    • Used by players to change their passwords.
  • resetpwd <player>
    • Used by ops to reset a players password. This actually unregisters the password.
  • preregister <player> <passwd>
    • Used by ops to pre-register players.
  • logout
    • De-authenticates a player.

Player pre-registration

It is possible to implement a web based pre-registration system with this plugin.

  1. rcon must be enabled on the PocketMine server.
  2. web server must be able to send rcon commands to PocketMine.
  3. Enable the whitelist functionality in PocketMine.
  4. Install SimpleAuth and SimpleAuthHelper.
  5. Optionally install PurePerms and disable simpleauthhelper.command.chpwd permission. You probably want users to change passwords from the web site.
  6. Whenever a user registers in web site, the web site script uses rcon to send the follwoing:
    • whitelist add player
    • preregister player passwd
  7. Whenever a user changes password in web site, we use rcon with:
    • resetpwd player
    • preregister player passwd

Database Monitor

This module is responsible for monitoring the SimpleAuth data provider to make sure that it is up and running and disable logins if it is not available.

It kicks off a background task that will poll the SimpleAuth data provider by trying to retrieve the data from the "canary-account". It is important that you have configured and have working SimpleAuth provider the first time you enable the database monitor. This is because the "canary-account" needs to be created (if it doesn't exist already).

On a regular interval, the SimpleAuth data provider is checked. If it is not running, all unauthenticated players are kicked and any new joins are not allowed.

Permission Nodes

  • simpleauthhelper.command.chpwd: Allow users to change passwords
  • simpleauthhelper.command.logout: Allow users to logout
  • simpleauthhelper.command.resetpwd (op): Allow ops to reset other's passwords
  • simpleauthhelper.command.prereg (op): Allow ops to pre-register users

Configuration

Configuration is through the config.yml file.

main

  • max-attemps: kick player after this many login attempts. NOTE: This conflicts with SimpleAuth's blockAfterFail setting
  • login-timeout: must authenticate within this number of seconds
  • leet-mode: lets players use also /login and /register
  • chat-protect: prevent player to display their password in chat
  • hide-unauth: EXPERIMENTAL, hide unauthenticated players
  • event-fixer: EXPERIMENTAL, cancels additional events for unauthenticated players
  • hack-login-perms: EXPERIMENTAL, overrides login permisions to make sure players can login
  • hack-register-perms: EXPERIMENTAL, overrides register permisions to make sure players can register
  • db-monitor: EXPERIMENTAL, enable database server monitoring
  • monitor-settings: Configure database monitor settings

monitor-settings

  • canary-account: account to query this account is tested to check database proper operations
  • check-interval: how to often to check database (seconds)

Translations

This plugin will honour the server language configuration. The languages currently available are:

  • English
  • German
  • Spanish
  • 中文

You can provide your own message file by creating a file called messages.ini in the plugin config directory. Check github for sample files. Alternatively, if you have GrabBag installed, you can create an empty messages.ini using the command:

 pm dumpmsgs SimpleAuthHelper [lang]
