Cantango Editor is a Rails mountable Engine providing web-interface for editing CanTango gem's permissions for any Rails 3 app.
It is no more than a nice-looking wrapper interface which is used for editing permissions stored in special yaml file: default is a config/permissions.yml. See "Yaml Permissions store" section on Permissions for more details.
CantangoEditor assumes that you're on Rails 3.1 and using CanTango gem with Permission engine enabled
include in Gemfile:
gem 'cantango_editor', :git => "git://github.com/stanislaw/cantango_editor.git"
bundle updateTo understand Cantango's permission_engine's options better please see wiki on Cantango's Permissions.
Create file cantango_editor.rb in config/initializers and write there:
# Your_app's root/config/initializers/cantango_editor.rb
CantangoEditor.configure do |config|
# Permission types to be displayed in interface
# default: [:user_types, :account_types, :roles, :role_groups, :licenses, :users]
config.permission_types_available = [:roles, :user_types]
# If you do not enumerate all permission_types here -
# those that are unmentioned here will just appear empty, having no permission_groups.
# default: { :roles => [:admin, :user] }.
config.permission_groups_available = { :roles => [:guest, :user], :user_types => [:admin] }
# default: all Models extracted from ActiveRecord's tables list
config.models_available = config.models_default - [Admin, CustomSession]
# Cancan's actions
# default: [:create, :read, :update, :delete, :manage]
config.actions_available = config.actions_default | [:write, :assign_roles]
end# Your_app's root/config/routes.rb
mount CantangoEditor::Engine => "/cantango_editor"Cantango is heavily based on CanCan authorization system. If you want to have good understanding of how Cantango's permissions rules work we recommend you to read carefully these sections from CanCan's wiki:
- Interface for categories too
- As always more and better tests
