Easy way to add per command permissions/restrictions
Is there an easy way to add a restriction for any command so that it can only be ran by a member with a specific role or in a specific channel. i know you have to integrate it into your database but what the easiest way to set this up. ive been trying to set this up with a precondition for all commands where it checks the command name and checks the database to see if there are any restrictions in place

Database? No...
You can use preconditions with sapphire

What are preconditions and how do they work? | Sapphire
Preconditions are classes that will determine whether or not a command should be ran according to certain conditions.
In the precondition, you can simply check if the member has a specific role, if they do, return this.ok() otherwise return this.error()
And I see you mentioned precondition also, if you're having trouble, show me your precondition code and/ or error
I wanted to make a command to allow members to setup their own restrictions per command
kinda like how dyno does
Oh right, I see. In this case, then yes a database would be the best approach.
In the simplest form, you can use
guildId-commandId as the unique ID in the database, then have another 2 rows
1 for an array of role IDs and another for an array of channel IDs
I suppose you could do a row for user IDs tooAlright thanks
I managed to get the precondition part and the actual restriction part working. But i have one problem. I have some commands where i setup where i have permission levels setup like skyra but if a command has
PermissionLevels.Staff the command wont run for a user who isnt a staff even if they are whitelisted. Is there a quick and easy way to make the restriction whitelist take priority over the PermissionLevel preconditions? I think i have to update every precondition for permission level to check for the whitelist.here is my current code:

Easily share your source code with other developers.
I think you would have to update every precondition sadly.
