fetching roles across scopes

[Alex-Mason-1982]

is there a way to fetch roles across scopes? I've been looking for a while now and cant seem to find the option. I was hoping to be able fetch everyone in a particular role no matter the scope (for things like staff lists).

eg. you have 2 users user1: [{role: 'admin', scope: 'scope1'}] user2: [{role: 'admin', scope: 'scope2'}]

as far as i can tell getUsersInRole(['admin']) will return [] getUsersInRole(['admin'], 'scope1') will return [user1] getUsersInRole(['admin'], 'scope2') will return [user2]

is there an option that will do the following? getUsersInRole(['admin'], SOME_OPTION_HERE) that will return [user1, user2]

I have to admit, I've been really bad in keeping the documentation updated ...

https://github.com/Meteor-Community-Packages/meteor-roles/blob/ad88577fe37259bf4b1f2a0b2109d3acd21723eb/roles/roles_common.js#L801-L823

This shows that the function getUsersInRole() accepts two parameters:

• {Array|String} roles Name of role or an array of roles. If array, users returned will have at least one of the roles specified but need not have all roles.
• {Object|String} [options] Options:
  • scope: name of the scope to restrict roles to; user's global roles will also be checked
  • anyScope: if set, role can be in any scope (scope option is ignored)
  • queryOptions: options which are passed directly through to Meteor.users.find(query, options)
  • Alternatively, it can be a scope name string.

I guess what you want is getUsersInRole(['admin'], { anyScope: true }) or am I mistaken?
