Roleify, a rails authorization plugin

Vandaag heb ik een paar updates gepushed naar de Roleify rails plugin.

Changes

• one can now use ‘namespaced’ controllers
• added a helper method to hide/show blocks for a specified role

Example

The initializer

Roleify::Role.configure("role_a", "role_b") do
  {
    :role_a => { :dashboard_issues =>  :all },
    :role_b => { :issues => "index" }
  }
end

So, role_a refers to a Dashboard::IssuesController and role_b refers to an IssuesController.

The Helper

module ApplicationHelper
  include Roleify::RoleifyableHelper
end

The View

<% allowed?(Roleify::Role::ROLE_A) do %>
  whatever you want for role_a eyes only
<% end %>
