labd / django-perms-provisioner Goto Github PK

Mainly used as reference for the user the easy the configuration of the user permissions:

• Clean up config file: see which user permissions are defined but not existent in the in the database
• See which user permissions are missing: add user permission lines to the config file and comment them out (so it is easy to add items just by uncommenting them)

Some ideas:

• Add an option to enable/disable the automatic adding/removing of stale/missing user permissions --updateConfig (-u)
• Add an option to automatically sort (alphabetically) the user permissions in the config file --sort (-s)

Configuration files now always need to be defined when running the commands.

It would be useful to be able to set a fixed path in your settings where to store/read the configuration file.
This way, you can ship the configuration file with your python package, and incorporate it in your project.

PERMS_PROVISION_CONFIG = os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, "assets", "permissions.yml")`

Useful if for example if you want to periodically reset the entire group permissions.

YAML
pro: clean syntax and layout, easy to read
con: need extra dependency in project

JSON
pro: no need for extra dep; can use python's own JSON module
pro2: complies with django's default configuration formats (think of the datadumps for example)
con: a bit less clean (but still quite clean tho) then YAML

Read the configuration file and update the user permissions in the database so that it matches the pre-defined config
