Row level permission -- status?

[gustav...@gmail.com]

Hello

I was investigating the current state of things in terms of row based
permission but could not get an up to date information. I did check
http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/RowLevelPermissions, but last
commit on this branch was done 2 years ago.

Is there any other solution available that would allow row level
permission?

Thanks
Gustavo

The Django admin's ModelAdmin class, which you must subclass to
provide an admin interface for your models, has methods (consult
source) which determine whether a given user has permission to edit a
given object. By default these are simply the class-level permissions,
but you are free to override them and will have access to the
individual object to perform whatever checks you like.

Personally, I think this obsoletes any attempt at generic "row-level
permissions" implementations.
