roles

i give users special URL with access key in it. users accessing the public page via this special url should be able to see some additional data as compared to simple anonymous user. i want to give some additional role to anonymous user based on parameters provided in request so i can do something like this in my template: <@sec.authorize ifAnyGranted="ROLE_ADMIN, ROLE_USER, ROLE_INVITED_VISITOR"> ...some additional stuff for invited user to see </@sec.authorize> currently i'm implementing Spring's OncePerRequestfilter : protected void doFilterInternal(HttpServletRequest request,

I've read the other subjects but it doesn't solve my problem so: I've got this ->add('role', 'choice', array( 'label' => 'I am:', 'mapped' => true, 'expanded' => true, 'multiple' => false, 'choices' => array( 'ROLE_NORMAL' => 'Standard', 'ROLE_VIP' => 'VIP', ) )) And whatever I do, I get this error: Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\xampp\htdocs\xxx\vendor\symfony\symfony \src\Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\ChoiceList\ChoiceList.php line 458 In my form type the setRole method is not even called (when I rename it to some garbage the error still occurs). Why is this happening? //

ASP.NET MVC has good support for role-based security, but the usage of strings as role names is maddening, simply because they cannot be strongly-typed as enumerations. For example, I have an "Admin" role in my app. The "Admin" string will now exist in the Authorize attribute of my action, in my master page (for hiding a tab), in my database (for defining the roles available to each user), and any other place in my code or view files where I need to perform special logic for admin or non-admin users. Is there a better solution, short of writing my own authorization attribute and filter, that

What is the best database schema to track role-based access controls for a web application? I am using Rails, but the RBAC plugin linked by Google looks unmaintained (only 300 commits to SVN; latest was almost a year ago). The concept is simple enough to implement from scratch, yet complex and important enough that it's worth getting right. So how do others architect and implement their RBAC model? To my rather basic knowledge in that area, the basic actors of an RBAC are: Resources. Permissions. Users. Roles (i.e. Groups). Resources <- require -> ( one or many ) Permissions . Roles <- are

I am trying to make an app with Rails 4. I am looking at role management and want to use Rolify because it supports instance level role assignment. For others looking at the same problem, there are 2 really good answers below (I can only tick one but I used both). Check out lorefnon & Cyb3rDud3 answers below). I'm still figuring it out, but have made a migration with an array (as lorefnon shows) and the controller/routes functions (as Cyb3rDud3 shows). What is completely baffling me is that all the documents for the Rolify gem use the console to define roles. How do I define roles in my code?

I am using the Authorize attribute like this: [Authorize (Roles="Admin, User")] Public ActionResult Index(int id) { // blah } When a user is not in the specified roles, I get an error page (resource not found). So I put the HandleError attribute in also. [Authorize (Roles="Admin, User"), HandleError] Public ActionResult Index(int id) { // blah } Now it goes to the Login page, if the user is not in the specified roles. How do I get it to go to an Unauthorized page instead of the login page, when a user does not meet one of the required roles? And if a different error occurs, how do I

I want to create a view that has different displays according to the role the user is in. Should I create a different view for different roles or should I check the roles on the Veiw page itself rather than in the actions? How would I check the role on the view page? Or should i use check the roles on the Veiw page its self rather than on actions, if so can someone plz show me how do check that on view page You need to do both. Check roles on actions as a security measure and check roles on views to enable/disable specific controls. Within your view page the long form of checking a role is
