GSync

Summary

This is a rather silly plugin that I made for my own personal use, and then decided to make available to the public. Simply put, this plugin generates a file based on the GroupManager permissions file at a set interval and notifies a webpage about the update. The webpage may then download the file from the server via FTP (or SFTP, if that's your thing) and use it to assign permisisons to users on the website. This will, of course, require users to register with their Minecraft username. The sample PHP files should help you get set up using this plugin.

Issues?

MalformedURLException This is the result of, well, a malformed URL. For example, this would be thrown by the URL "http:/example.com/" (missing "/").

ClassCastException This is most likely the result of a non-HTTP protocol. For example, this will be thrown if your URL begins with "ftp://".

300-399 response code This shouldn't typically happen unless you attempt to access the wrong website. If this is not the case, you should be able to fix it on your own given the context. If not, Google may be of assistance.

403 response code The plugin doesn't have permission to access the webpage. Ensure that your permissions are set to an appropriate value such as 775. Also, ensure that your webserver configuration allows access. In Apache, this is done with a VirtualHost module.

404 response code The webpage couldn't be found. Ensure that it is named correctly and is in the proper directory.

500-599 reponse code This is the result of a sever error. This is often the result of the webserver being overloaded, or, perhaps more commonly, a syntax error in the page's code.
