AclManager for CakePHP 2.x

This plugins allows you to easily manage your permissions in CakePHP 2.x through the Acl module.

Features

  • Managing permissions for each node
  • Updating Database with missing AROs (Users, Roles, ...)
  • Updating Database with missing ACOs (Controller actions)
  • Revoking all permissions

Requirements

  • CakePHP 2.x

How to install

1. Set up your Acl environment (see any tutorial)

  • Install SQL tables through Cake Console
  • parentNode() method on your requester models

2. Configure Auth in your AppController

It should look something like this:

var $components = array('Auth', 'Acl', 'Session');

function beforeFilter() {
	
    //Configure AuthComponent
    $this->Auth->authorize = array(
    	'Controller',
    	'Actions' => array('actionPath' => 'controllers')
    );
	$this->Auth->authenticate = array('Form' => array('fields' => array('username' => 'login', 'password' => 'password')));
    $this->Auth->loginAction = array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'login', 'admin' => false, 'plugin' => false);
    $this->Auth->logoutRedirect = array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'login', 'admin' => false, 'plugin' => false);
    $this->Auth->loginRedirect = array('controller' => 'products', 'action' => 'index', 'admin' => false, 'plugin' => false);
    
}

function isAuthorized($user) {
    // return false;
    return $this->Auth->loggedIn();
}

3. Download AclManager

To the app/Plugin directory

4. Configure the plugin

See AclManager/Config/bootstrap.php

AclManager.aros : write in there your requester models aliases (the order is important)

5. Enable the plugin

In app/Config/bootstrap.php

CakePlugin::load('AclManager', array('bootstrap' => true));

6. Login with an existing user

The plugin conflicts with $this->Auth->allow(), do not use it. Just make sure that you are logged in.

7. Access the plugin at /acl_manager/acl

  • Update your AROs and ACOs
  • Set up your permissions (do not forget to enable your own public actions!)

8. Disable the authorizer Controller

Or uncomment return false in AppController::isAuthorized()

9. You're done!

Enjoy!
