Stephen McCants commented on SHIRO-459:
---------------------------------------
Our "quick" solution, which is probably not the correct long term solution, was
to add an "anon" setting to our filter. For instance:
/users/** = noSessionCreation, rest[POST-anon,GET-anon,DELETE-admin]
That lets anonymous users do POST (create a new account) and GETs (see their
new account) and requires admin permission/role for DELETEs.
So the work around was to combine the authc and anon filter into my "rest"
filter.
I think your proposed solution (along the lines of SHIRO-107) is better. Could
you end up with something like:
/rest:GET = anon
/rest:PUT = authcBasic, myFilter[SERVICE_PROVIDER,EXPERIMENTER]
/rest:POST = authcBasic, myFilter[EXPERIMENTER]
/rest:DELETE = authcBasic, myFilter[ADMINISTRATOR]
That would remove the redundant method references. It also starts to look at
lot like SHIRO-107. I'm wondering if maybe 107 should be reopened because it
isn't working correctly?
> Support role-based authorization depending on HTTP request method

> Key: SHIRO-459
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHIRO-459
> Project: Shiro
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Authorization (access control)
> Affects Versions: 1.2.2
> Reporter: Daniel Bimschas
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: features, newbie

> =====================
> Dear Shiro gods!
> I'm struggling to figure out how I can do role-based authorization depending
> on what HTTP method a request is using. I've posted this question on
> StackOverflow as it seems nobody has been asking it before (at least I
> couldn't find it with my search terms). I would be incredibly happy if you
> could take a look!

> =============================
> Then, in a second mail I proposed a solution to the issue:
> =============================
> Digging into the Shiro source codes I found that this feature is in fact not
> available in Shiro. I've now implemented my own custom filter (extending
> RolesAuthorizationFilter) that allows you to do exactly what I wanted.
> Configuration for the filter follows the following example:
> [main]
> myFilter=my.package.HttpMethodRolesAuthorizationFilter
> [urls]
> /rest = authcBasic,
> myFilter[PUT=SERVICE_PROVIDER&EXPERIMENTER,POST=EXPERIMENTER,DELETE=ADMINISTRATOR]
> So, in this example
> - a user must be authenticated to execute any operation
> - a user with both roles SERVICE_PROVIDER and EXPERIMENTER can send a PUT
> request,
> - a user with role EXPERIMENTER can send POST requests, and
> - a user with role ADMINISTRATOR can DELETE things
> I would be more than happy to contribute this little bit of code to the
> project in case you're interested!
