Authorizations

The Authorizations module (authorizations) allows you to assign an authorization level (a numerical value) to specific roles or users on your server.

This authorization level is used throughout the La Cabra environment to determine who has permission over whom when applying sanctions, interacting with modules, or executing moderation commands.

Golden Rule of Authorizations

Let’s consider two users: User1 and User2.

1. If the level of User1 is equal to or lower than that of User2, User1 will not be able to sanction User2 (an error will appear indicating the lack of permissions).
2. User1 will only be able to sanction User2 if their level is strictly higher.

How does it work?

To declare authorizations in your configuration file, you must use the role ID or the user ID in quotes, followed by a colon (:) and the authorization level (a number).

Configuration example

authorizations:
  '299564414997104192': 100 # Manuel777 (User ID)
  '662355640987025485': 100 # Admin Role (Role ID)
  '418587824107945994': 50  # Moderator Role (Role ID)
  '633417290599104512': 10  # Helper Role (Role ID)
