Jifty::RightsFrom(3)

NAME
Jifty::RightsFrom - Delegate access control to a related object

SYNOPSIS
  package Application::Model::Thing;
  use Jifty::DBI::Schema;
  use Application::Record schema {
    column owner => refers_to Application::Model::Person;
  }

  use Jifty::RightsFrom column => 'owner';

DESCRIPTION
Provides a "delegate_current_user_can" method that various task-related objects can use as a base to make their own access control decisions based on their task. "current_user_can" in Jifty::Record uses this method to make an access control decision if it exists.

Note that this means that a model class can use Jifty::RightsFrom, and still have a custom "current_user_can" method, and they will not interfere with each other.

  delegate_current_user_can 'column', $column_name, $right_name, @attributes
Make a decision about permissions based on checking permissions on the column of this record specified in the call to "import". "create", "delete", and "update" rights all check for the "update" right on the delegated object. On create, we look in the passed attributes for an argument with the name of that column.
