been checking one by one on the list, and the most part of it is outdated/left/does’nt exist.

this list must definitely be updated!

+1 for updating this really useful list, and adding Can Can :-)

It would be good to provide an example or tutorial on how to integrate declarative_authorization with devise

Hi,

some people have asked for a plug-in that could keep the roles assignment in the database, so that the role management can be dynamically configured. Is anyone aware of a good plug-in that implements this requirement?

Many thanx in advance!

Hi,

Looks like you haven’t added Cancan yet to your list.
That would be a great plus to this already very good reference page.

Thanks in advance ;-)

You are right. Now it’s correct.

Not to nitpick, but you’re missing a closing curly brace in your first example for your improved DSL, it should be as follows:

has_permission_on :companies, :to => :read do
if_attribute :branches => {
:manager => { :last_name => is { user.last_name } } }
if_permitted_to :read, :branches
end

[...] I’m aware there are quite a few other plugins out there. If you found another one and you’re very happy about it, please share. Tagged [...]

It seems that none of these plugins allow for dynamic permission setting (where an admin can grant permission on specific objects to roles in a live system).

Did I miss something?

Why not store the permissions in a table rather than in a file?

+ 1 for adding CanCan to the list: it is actually really usable, and could manage simple to complex scenarios
(thank you, Ryan Bates)

For usage questions, please turn to the mailing list http://groups.google.com/group/declarative_authorization/

Actually, this should just work. Maybe you have an error elsewhere in your code.
