Permissions

The admin panel uses a permission function to control access to various actions.

Building a Permission Checker Function

Implement a function matching the PermissionFunc type:

type PermissionFunc func(PermissionRequest, interface{}) (bool, error)

Example with role based access:

permissionFunc := func(req admin.PermissionRequest, ctx interface{}) (bool, error) {
    user, ok := ctx.(*User)
    if !ok {
        return false, nil
    }

    if user.Role == "admin" {
        return true, nil
    }

    // Additional permission checks
    return false, nil
}

Examples of Different Permission Schemes

Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Permissions are assigned based on user roles.
Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC): Permissions are granted based on user attributes and resource properties.

Integration with Authentication Systems

You can integrate the permission function with your authentication system by passing the user context from your web framework.
