What is the nice way to limit/ omit column field displays

[dakila]

Hi All,

Is there an option in rum similar to __omit_fields__ in sprox?

Currently what I do to achieve 'exclude a field' is iterate on the
table's columns and 'policy.register' them individually for each
actions 'show' and 'index' . But Im noticing a slow response on the
first request, but it is only on the first request , but after that
everything rocks big time :)


for table in tables:
for action in tg.config.get('rum_permission_view')
['actions']:
if 'User' in str(table) and action in
('index','show'):
for c in class_mapper(table).iterate_properties:
if hasattr(c,'key') and
getattr(c,'key')=='password':
pass
elif hasattr(c,'key'):
p.register(viewer, obj=table,
action=action, attr=c.key)
else:
pass
else:
p.register(viewer,obj=table,action=action)

Hi!
I included an example here:
http://bitbucket.org/brickenstein/rum-policy/changeset/b1f71f0c7cf0

Indeed exclusions are very essential. We should consider to make it a
little bit more unmagical.

By the way, I suppose, that the slowness might also be prevented by
initialization and importing everything essential on app server start.

Cheers,

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your example, was able exclude the display of the password
attribute. The reduced number of 'register' calls did made the first
request faster.

Regarding exclusions, I think the exclusion example is of great help
already.
