Ownership allows to limit a permission to the owner property of an instance. 2 7 keywords are available

  • $selfowner: User must be the owner of the instance to be able to perform an action

  • $anyowner: No restriction on ownership

  • $boardcollaborator: Specific to boards domain - Identify the surfer as a collaborator on a board

Groups pkgsecugroup

Groups allow to centralize multiple permissions on one or many objects, for one or many roles and one or many users.

  • name: Name of the group

  • template (boolean): it is convenient to have

  • $teammember:

    Status
    colourPurple
    titlesince 2024.1
    Allows to check whether the surfer is part of the field team (team is a child multi on user). This requires the structure to have the pkg/security/collaborative config tag

  • $teamleader:

    Status
    colourPurple
    titlesince 2024.1
    Allows to check whether the surfer is denoted in the field jobowner. This requires the structure to have the pkg/security/collaborative config tag

  • $teamviewer:

    Status
    colourPurple
    titlesince 2024.4
    Allows to check whether the surfer is part of the field viewers (viewers is a child multi on user). This requires the structure to have the pkg/security/collaborative config tag.
    Caution, $teamviewer ownership can only be used with view action

  • $public:

    Status
    colourPurple
    titlesince 2024.4
    Allows to check whether the instance is NOT private →private field as a child activated = 2. This requires the structure to have the pkg/security/collaborative config tag.

Groups pkgsecugroup

Groups allow to centralize multiple permissions on one or many objects, for one or many roles and one or many users.

  • name: Name of the group

  • template (boolean): it is convenient to have groups as templates. If template is true, then this instance is not used when resolving groups to which belong a user

  • activated (boolean): Inactive instances are ignored

  • objectsselector (string): A structure selector to define which objects are managed by the group. For instance:

    • assetkeyword would apply to structure named assetkeyword.

    • #damobject would apply to any structure having the tag damobject (on table level)

    • assetkeyword,#damobject would apply to structure assetkeyword and to any object having the tag damobject

  • permissions (childmulti → pkgsecupermission): Permissions granted to users belonging to this group for objects matching objectselector

  • roles (childmulti →role): All users of selected roles will be members of the group

  • users (childmulti →user): All users selected will be members of this group

It is possible to automatically extend some bases with the ones provided by the plugin:

  1. Set plugin parameter extend_bases to true

  2. Make sure extended_bases references to the coma-separated list of bases you want the plugin to extend (base_list,base_search by default)

  3. Make sure extend_with references the coma-separated list of bases you want to use to extend the extended_bases list of bases (base_pkgsecurity_view by default)

By doing so, you will be instructing the plugin to extend base_list and base_search with base_pkgsecurity_view for each object.

...

Preventing bases for Developers to be extended

Given that

  1. extend_bases = true

  2. extended_bases = base_list,base_search

  3. extend_with = base_pkgsecurity_view

To deactivate the extension for all objects for role 4 (and therefor to be able to see any instance), you can define the config to:

...

@pkgV1ObjectActions is defined to check for an objectname if some permissions were given to a user for the corresponding objectdata action → No additional configuration is required on objectactions: an action from objectactions domain will be granted if some permissions were given on objectdata
