midnight/permissions

ACL and RBAC weren't the permission models I was looking for. So I wrote my own.

Installation

Install midnight/permissions via Composer.

Usage

You need a Container that can provide your PermissionService with permissions. In this example, we're going to use league/container, but any container implementing Psr\Container\ContainerInterface will work.

For brevity, the user and resource are arrays in this example. Most likely, they will be objects any real-world project.

class CanDoSomething implements Midnight\Permissions\PermissionInterface
{
    public function isAllowed($user = null, $resource = null): bool {
        return $user === $resource['owner'];
    }
}

$container = new League\Container\Container();
$container->add('can_do_something', CanDoSomething::class);

$permissionService = new Midnight\Permissions\PermissionService($container);

$permissionService->isAllowed('Rudolph', 'can_do_something', ['owner' => 'Rudolph']); // true
$permissionService->isAllowed('Rudolph', 'can_do_something', ['owner' => 'Christoph']); // false

Laminas Module

There's also a Laminas module that will let you access the PermissionService via the Service Manager, add permissions via the config and give you view helpers and controller plugins. It's called midnight/permissions-module.
