User Roles in Play!
Kenny Meyer
How can I implement multiple user roles in Play!, with each having
role-specific permissions and views, and what would be an appropriated
database scheme?
Basically, I have these roles:
- Administrator
- Organizer
- Contestant
- Unregistered (not authenticated or anonymous)
Each of those roles has different permissions and views within the web
application.
Is the Secure module sufficient for this purpose? If yes, are the any
code examples you can provide? Well, I would be thankful if you can
give me the basic idea, because I can't wrap my head around this.
There is this question on the list, which is very similar to mine:
http://groups.google.com/group/play-framework/browse_thread/thread/7f56fd62af992cec/9a40e8404ab42bfa?#9a40e8404ab42bfa
Consider the actual thread as a follow-up.
Thanks -- Kenny

you need. I can't really add more than what's detailed in
http://www.playframework.org/documentation/1.1.1/secure and
http://www.playframework.org/documentation/1.1.1/guide8 - these cover
everything you need, and the example code of yabe can be used as a
guide. Check ${your play installation}/samples-and-tests/yabe for the
yabe code.
If each user can have more than one role, consider the deadbolt module
- this allows you to and, or and not role combinations in your
security restrictions.

Have you go forward with this solution? I have same needs for my project.
I'm thinking we could work together to write a solution as a module.
I used to work with Microsoft Membership on my ASP.net/C# days. And I think we could be inspired, take ideas from their implementation:

Yes, the yabe application looks like a good starting point. I could
separate the admin interface from the "Anonymous" interface, but
currently I am stuck integrating the other roles. The documentation is
not very helpful in this case, which is sad.

I haven't thought about giving each user more than one role, but maybe
I will have to use deadbolt in the future.
Thank you very much for you help Steve!

I don't know if I can help you, but I am interested and eager to learn.
Are you planning to complement the Secure module (like deadbolt) or
writing an Auth system from scratch like from the ASP.NET
implementation?
I am just an average Java developer (still, but I'm working on it),
with a stronger background in other programming languages like Python.
Feel free to contact me personally, if you want to talk.

I thought would be great create a Authentication module similar to ASP.net, with DB and "controls" so you have everything from the module, and connect with Deadbolt module - I don't think we should rewrite things there already done.
I gonna contact you in PVT, just wondering if someone else have the same needs and how they are thinking to solve it.

Steve Chaloner
authorisation, if that's useful for you?

Look forward for the new commit.

Steve, it seems like deadbolt is exactly what I needed. The great
examples given in samples-and-tests/ made my day . :)
