Hi Mads,
Ehm. Custom permissions? I think you need to clarify what you want to do. It's probably possible without doing anything custom.
If you want to set permissions on a non-dynamicweb object, we can oblige out of the box:
Setting:
int id = 0;
string userId = "123456";
string key = "UniqueIdentifierForEvent"; //this is the PK used in the database - make sure it is unique, as it will override existing permissions otherwise.
string name = "MyCustomCode"; //General area is the custom code for the "MyCustomCode" project
string subName = "Database"; //Permissions for the Database section of the project
PermissionLevel level = PermissionLevel.Read | PermissionLevel.Edit; //Allow both read and edit. All permissions are enum flags and can be concatenated together
var permission = new UnifiedPermission(id, userId, key, name, subName, level);
var service = new UnifiedPermissionService();
service.Save(permission);
You can call "permission.ToIdentifier();" to see exactly what "thing" you've assigned permissions to. You need such an identifier to check permissions again:
Getting:
string key = "UniqueIdentifierForEvent";
string name = "MyCustomCode";
string subName = "Database";
var identifier = new UnifiedPermissionIdentifier(key, name, subName);
PermissionLevel level;
if(service.TryGetPermission(identifier, out level)){
if(level == PermissionLevel.Edit){
...
} else if(level == PermissionLevel.Read){
...
}
}
If you have an object that should be permission controlled, you can implement the interface "IPermissionControlled" to get the same behavior as fx. Dynamicweb.Page.vb
Custom permission object:
public class MyCustomObject : IPermissionControlled {
public string ImportantProperty{get;set;}
public string Identifier {get;set;}
public IPermissionControlled GetParent()
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
public UnifiedPermissionIdentifier GetPermissionIdentifier()
{
return new UnifiedPermission(Identifier, "MyCustomObject", ""); //note that subName may be empty if you prefer...
}
}
You can now use the following code:
var newObject = new MyCustomObject();
if(newObject.HasPermission(PermissionLevel.Read)){
...
}
etc.
Hope this helps you finish your task. :)
