Cloud code New user role and ACL

[hris...@gmail.com]

Hello there, 

Great job everyone!!! Well done!

I have a small issue with my cloud code. I have an aftersave fuction on Users which adds the new user to an existing Role and then changes his ACL so that only himself can read and write to his entry.

Unfortunately the user is not added to the Role and for the ACL It alters it but it is also adding "Public Read" to it.

Parse.Cloud.afterSave(Parse.User, function(request) {

  var user = request.user; 

  if (!user.existed()) {

  query = new Parse.Query("_Role");

  query.equalTo("name", "Admins");

  query.first({useMasterKey: true}).then(function(role){

  role.getUsers().add(user);

  role.relation("users").add(user);

  role.save(null, {useMasterKey: true});

        }).then(function(){

                                             

var userACL = new Parse.ACL(user);

user.setACL(userACL);

user.save(null, {useMasterKey: true});

});

  }

});

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best Regards.

Any thoughts on the issue?

Greetings, Captain!

I'll look into the proper solutions to your concerns.

But first, let me just focus on details:

- You might return the Promises to properly fit them on the ".then()" chain.
"role.save(null, {useMasterKey: true});" might become "return role.save(null, {useMasterKey: true});".

Same with "user.save()".

- I'll recommend the usage of "query = new Parse.Query(Parse.Role);" instead of "query = new Parse.Query("_Role");".

I still need to check another changes on the code, but this might be a good start.

Permission to leave, Captain? Aye aye!

Instead of:

role.getUsers().add(user);

role.relation("users").add(user);

Try to use just:

role.relation("users").add(user);

And let me know

Hello there!

Thank you for your reply.

I have tried that before but I also tried it again now in order to make sure.

Unfortunately nothing changed. 

Very strange! The code used to work perfectly when it was on Parse.

with

var user = request.object; 

Thank you Davi!!!
