I am working on an app that has three roles (user, admin, business). I have the situation where all three roles interact with the same controller, but have access to different actions. Some actions are authorized for 2 roles (admin, business), and others are only authorized for one role (administrator).
Does anyone know if there is a commonly used pattern for security on a per action basis? What I would like to do is be able to map which roles are authorized to call which actions and be able to call a :before_filter in my controller. In my head I'm thinking of something like before_filter :authorize_action => :except [:public_action1, :public_action2] Thanks for any input. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
