# Jun 28th 2017, 05:10 aproapedelune sorry, I didn t get what Tarique said.
# Jun 28th 2017, 05:08 savant What docs for what?
# Jun 28th 2017, 05:08 savant The fellowship is over
# Jun 28th 2017, 05:08 savant Frodo left the one ring at Mount Doom
# Jun 28th 2017, 05:07 aproapedelune what docs?
# Jun 28th 2017, 05:04 tariquesani No ACL plugin no Ring triology references in docs either?
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:54 savant No problem
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:54 aproapedelune I got it. :slightly_smiling_face: Thank you!!
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:53 savant But should be easy to migrate :)
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:53 savant When you get to cases where you can have multiple roles per user or more than like 5 roles, then you can have a table
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:53 aproapedelune i ll try this
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:52 aproapedelune damn, you re a genius :)))
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:52 savant No need for an extra table
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:52 savant Works quite nice
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:52 savant And have constants in my app for the role name mapping to the actual role
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:52 savant Have that as an integer
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:52 savant In fact, I normally just have a role field in the users table
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:51 savant I use just users and groups
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:51 aproapedelune and regarding the databases, would it be better to have like a table for each category (admin, teacher, student, parent) , or just users and groups ( users having groups_id as fk)
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:49 savant Controller authorization works great
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:49 savant Did you need acl? Or can you get away with isAuthorized methods in your controller?
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:46 aproapedelune I m trying to create an app , something like a virtual student informations system. But it s not a piece of cake for me :)
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:44 savant I can probably try to get to docs for it this weekend
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:44 savant Afaik it works fine
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:44 savant We just don't have time to work on it
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:44 savant It's not
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:44 aproapedelune yep, I found the plugin. but I wanted to know if it s deprecated or something
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:44 savant Here is the plugin
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:43 savant https://github.com/cakephp/acl
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:43 savant Or some other single sign on solution
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:42 savant Or if they do, ldap Integration is better
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:42 savant Usually apps don't require such permissioning
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:42 savant None of the core team uses it
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:42 savant We just haven't documented it
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:42 savant It's now just a plugin
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:40 aproapedelune Hey! Could someone please tell me little more about ACL ? I know it was build in CakePHP 2, but why it isn t anymore? Is it another (better) method to create the authorisation part?
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:17 savant <3 ir
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:13 tariquesani ok, will get to that in a while :+1:
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:13 savant Also comment for duplicates would be pro!
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:12 tariquesani :slightly_smiling_face:
# Jun 28th 2017, 04:12 savant Cool if you can link them at least, will be a big help
