This plugin allows to manage access to front-end based on roles hierarchy or flat roles structure.

RainLab.User and Lovata.Buddies are supported as auth system

Features

  • create your roles and permissions
  • group roles into parent - children relations (or just create set of roles without parenting)
  • manage access to a CMS page (by role, permission, auth/anonymous)
  • use Twig helpers to allow or restrict access in views
  • use PHP helpers to allow or restrict access in php code

Requirements

Backend

Quick start

Add Access component to layouts or pages which access you want to control.

Then create some roles and/or permissions in Users > Roles Hierarchy.

Optionaly to use the power of roles hierarchy create roles system by assigning parent - child relations between them. Then you can create some permissions and assign them to roles depending on hierarchy (check screenshot).

CMS Pages access

After at least one role is created you can choose it in CMS Page settings to allow access only for users of that role or it's parents. Another option is to manage Page access by choosing permission. Or check "Only anonymous" checkbox to restrict access for any logged user.

Frontend

You can use twig helpers or PHP static functions to allow or restrict access.

Check if user got specific role

Twig: 
-  isRole($role_code, $user = null)
- user.isRole($role_code)
PHP: 
-  Helper::isRole($role_code, $user = null)
-  $user->isRole($role_code)

Checks if current user has specific role or a role with higher privileges (roles ancestors). Pass user object as second parameter to check it rather then authenticated user. Example: if user has admin role: isRole('admin') and isRole('superadmin') will return true.

Check if user got specific permission

Twig: 
- able($permission_code, $user = null)
- user.able($permission_code)
PHP: 
-  Helper::able($permission_code, $user = null) 
-  $user->able($permission_code)

Checks if current user's role has right to execute a permission. Permission should be assigned to the user's role or to a role with lower privileges (roles successors). Pass user object as second parameter to check it rather then authenticated user.

Get Role object by role code string parameter

Twig: 
- roleByCode($role_code)
PHP: 
-  Helper::roleByCode($role_code)

Use case for this helper: you want to add radio buttons role selector to your registration form:

    <div class="form-row text-center">
        <div class="form-group col-md-6">
            <label for="seller-role">Seller</label><br>
            <input id="seller-role" name="role_id" value="{{ roleByCode('seller').id }}" type="radio">
        </div>
        <div class="form-group col-md-6">
            <label for="buyer-role">Buyer</label><br>
            <input id="buyer-role" name="role_id" value="{{ roleByCode('buyer').id }}" type="radio">
        </div>
    </div>

role_id field is fillable in User model (for both supported plugins) so it will be saved automatically.

    There is a hardcoded URL to the " /admin" area if the user has a different Backend URL the links will not work. Found in the following files:

    ~/roles/controllers/roles/index.htm Upon the lines 16, 18, 31 ~/roles/controllers/Roles.php Upon the line 38

    Works perfect btw.
