The rights package facilitates the implementation of custom rights logic.

Classes

RightsDecorator

Base class for decorators that work with the ModuleWithRightCheck module subclass

The methods is_user_allowed(self, user) and user_is_not_allowed_response(self, *args, **kwargs) must be implemented in a subclass

Methods

Function	Parameters	Return Value	Description
RightsDecorator.current_user_is_allowed`(self)`		`True` or `False`	Check whether the current user has the necessary rights
RightsDecorator.is_user_allowed`(self, user)`	user: User	Should return `True` or `False`	This method must be implemented in a subclass to perform the right check for a given user
RightsDecorator.user_is_allowed_response`(self, args,` `*kwargs)`	args: Original arguments of the function call kwargs: Original keyword arguments of the function call	Value of the original function call	Calls the function that has been decorated
RightsDecorator.user_is_not_allowed_response`(self, args,` `*kwargs)`	args: Original arguments of the function call kwargs: Original keyword arguments of the function call		This method must be implemented in a subclass to notify the user that he/she does not have the necessary rights

ModuleContextRightDecorator

Base class for decorators that conditionally hide actions in PLANTA

This decorator is not (!) invoked when calling the decorated function, but instead works in tandem with the ModuleWithRightCheck to check via the is_functionality_allowed method if certain actions / buttons / links / context menu entries should be hidden/shown in a module

Methods

Function	Parameters	Return Value	Description
is_functionality_allowed`(self, module)`	module: Current module context	Should return `True` or `False`	This method must be implemented in a subclass to perform the right check for a given module

ModuleWithRightCheck

Base class for modules that use a RightsDecorator to gate their methods.

The module will automatically hide buttons for which the current user does not have access rights
If the current user has the necessary rights, the buttons will be shown in the window they are customized in
Remember to call the base implementations of the methods ModuleWithRightCheck overrides if you further override them.
When a user uses the "Save Customizing" function to save to the base MV, a ModuleWithRightCheck keeps the customized window settings regardless of whether the current user can see the button or not.

Methods

Function	Parameters	Return Value	Description
ModuleWithRightCheck.control_action_display`(self)`			Checks the module code for decorated functions and either unhides or hides them based on the rights of the user
ModuleWithRightCheck.create_mv`(self, title)`	title: MV name	Module variant ID	Extends the default MV creation to prevent data fields connected to a `RightsDecorator` from being moved to a different window in a MV
ModuleWithRightCheck.get_subclass_method_datafields`(self)`		A dictionary of {method_name: (DA, DF, Window)}	Fetches all data fields that have a customized module subclass method
ModuleWithRightCheck.has_methods_with_right_check`(self)`		`True` or `False`	Checks if any methods of the current class are decorated with a `RightsDecorator`
ModuleWithRightCheck.menu_override`(self, menu_id)`	menu_id: Menu item id	Default menu override return values	Extends the default module variant saving menu item to prevent data fields connected to a `RightsDecorator` from being moved to a different window in a MV
ModuleWithRightCheck.on_after_mv_switch`(self, old_mv, new_mv)`	old_mv: Previous module variant new_mv: Newly selected module variant		Calls `control_action_display`
ModuleWithRightCheck.on_load`(self)`			Calls `control_action_display`
ModuleWithRightCheck.save_mv_by_id`(self, id)`	id: Module variant ID	`True` or `False`	Extends the default implementation to prevent data fields connected to a `RightsDecorator` from being moved to a different window in a MV

Examples

Implementing a new decorator

Python

from ppms.rights import RightsDecorator


class R41ExclusivityDecorator(RightsDecorator):
    
    def is_user_allowed(self, user):
        return user == 'R41'

    def user_is_not_allowed_response(self, *args, **kwargs):
        return ppms.ui_message_box('Only R41 is allowed to use this function!')


@R41ExclusivityDecorator
def some_function_exclusive_to_r41():
    ppms.ui_message_box('Hello R41!')

Using the new decorator in a module subclass

Python

from ppms.rights import ModuleWithRightCheck


class R41ExclusiveModule(ModuleWithRightCheck)

    @R41ExclusivityDecorator
    def exclusive_method(self):
        ppms.ui_message_box('Hello R41!')

    def on_load(self):
        super(R41ExclusiveModule, self).on_load()
        self.menu(MENU_FILTER)
