How to install Minecraft Data Packs

This is a quick pack that I made mainly for my server, but I thought I'd publish here. It's a very lightweight pack to allow certain players (eg. mods) to perform a certain command. You can specify the command and players. This works on vanilla servers, and has no dependencies. This would also work on singleplayer, although I'm not quite sure why you'd want that. (Map making?)

Setup and Usage
  1. Download the file somewhere onto your computer and unzip.
  2. Navigate to "BPerms/data/bperms/functions".
  3. Open "setcommand.mcfunction" and setplayers.mcfunction with Notepad++ or similar.
  4. In "setcommand.mcfunction", underneath the comment, type the command(s) you wish to run when the trigger is run. Separate commands should go on separate lines. Do not prefix the commands with a forwards slash. Once you're done, save and close the file. Note: if you used a command like /ban or /stop, you will need to make sure you have the relevant function-permission-level in server.properties.
  5. In "setplayers.mcfunction", on line 4, replace "PLAYERNAME" with the name of a player you wish to grant permissions. You can copy and paste this line as many times as you would like, each with a different player. You can also use target selectors to do things like grant permissions to a certain team. Once you're done, save and close the file.
  6. Navigate back to the folder "BPerms", and copy the folder into your world datapacks folder. More info here.
  7. Once you have installed your datapack, the players you specified will be able to type the following command: /trigger BPerms
    This will run all the commands you specified in setcommand.mcfunction.
I am very new to functions datapacks, so if you find an error, or have a way to make the pack more efficient, please please please let me know here or on discord @Beatso#1815.
Also, feel free to use this datapack on your server/map etc. Credit would be nice :). You can totally customise this and change things to your heart's content.

A not so bad idea is to have teams instead of manually letting people add themselves t the datapack so for example if someone did /team join admin then they could get ban privileges or /team join builder to give them access to modify spawn... I did the same premise to select a player in my Discipline datapack: [url="www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/play-test-discipline-1-15/[/url]"]www.planetminecraft.com/data-pack/play-test-discipline-1-15/[/url]

If you need to check for a team you can do @a[​team=teamname]

yeah, this is a good idea. I mainly made this for my own server, where we have teams for other things, so it would interfere. I might make a teams-based version in the future, though. Or maybe I could use tags?

nope, AFAIK you can't have a player on more than one team:

A very small, but good first time datapack! You don't actually have to zip the data pack after modification, it can run in extracted form, just make sure the data folder of the datapack is at the second level below /datapacks of the world save. (E.g. /datapacks/bperms/data exists)
