Overview

LuckPerms is a free permissions plugin for Minecraft servers. Administrators use it to create groups and assign player permissions through commands, configuration files, or a browser-based editor. The project provides implementations for server platforms including Bukkit, BungeeCord, Fabric, Forge, Nukkit, Sponge, and Velocity, with NeoForge and Hytale also listed among supported platforms. For multi-server networks, permission data can be shared across instances using the same supported storage system; options include MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and others. The web editor works with all storage types. LuckPerms provides a public API for other plugins and a REST API extension that lets programs read and modify its data without direct database access. It can also run as a standalone app. The project says it does not report to analytics or monitoring services and does not automatically check for or install updates. It does download required libraries and translation bundles over the internet and connects to external services for features such as the web editor. Its FAQ says it supports Minecraft versions from 1.8.8 through the latest release.
