What happened?

Can't get the authGroups permissions defined in the /modules/Auth/Config/AuthGroups.

when i request a list of permissions using setting('AuthGroups.permissions'), i expected all the permissions array but i get default permission array defined in AuthGroup.

public array $permissions = [
    'admin.access'        => 'Can access the sites admin area',
    'admin.settings'      => 'Can access the main site settings',
    'users.manage-admins' => 'Can manage other admins',
    'users.create'        => 'Can create new non-admin users',
    'users.edit'          => 'Can edit existing non-admin users',
    'users.delete'        => 'Can delete existing non-admin users',
    'beta.access'         => 'Can access beta-level features',
];

Steps to Reproduce

I am using codeigniter4/shield as Auth modules.

I have /modules/Auth/Config/AuthGroups with some of dummy permission. this is the core config for my all base auth group configuration.

namespace Modules\Auth\Config;

// other stuffs
use CodeIgniter\Shield\Config\AuthGroups as ShieldAuthGroups;

class AuthGroups extends ShieldAuthGroups
{
    // other stuffs
    public array $permissions = [
        'admin.access'        => 'Can access the sites admin area',
        'admin.settings'      => 'Can access the main site settings',
        'groups.settings'     => 'Can access the groups settings',
        'groups.edit'         => 'Can edit existing user groups',
        'users.list'          => 'Can view a list of users in the system',
        'users.manage-admins' => 'Can manage other admins',
        'users.view'          => 'Can view user details',
        'users.create'        => 'Can create new non-admin users',
        'users.edit'          => 'Can edit existing non-admin users',
        'users.delete'        => 'Can delete existing non-admin users',
        'users.settings'      => 'Can manage User settings in admin area',
        'beta.access'         => 'Can access beta-level features',
        'site.viewOffline'    => 'Can view the site even when in "offline" mode',
        'widgets.settings'    => 'Can view the settings for site Widgets',
        'consent.settings'    => 'Can view the settings for the Consent module',
        'recycler.view'       => 'Can view the Recycler area',
        'logs.view'           => 'Can view the logs',
        'logs.manage'         => 'Can manage the logs',
        'me.edit'             => 'Can edit user\'s own settings',
        'me.security'         => 'Can change user\'s own password',
    ];
    // other stuffs
}

i have another config class called /modules/Languages/Config/AuthGroups. this is the auth group config where i only defined the language modules related auth group & permissions.

namespace Modules\Languages\Config;

// other stuffs
use Modules\Auth\Config\AuthGroups as ConfigAuthGroups;

class AuthGroups extends ConfigAuthGroups
{
    protected array $permissions = [
        'languages.access'       => 'Can access the Languages Files Management Module',
        'languages.view'         => 'Can view all language files',
        'languages.view_single'  => 'Can view individual language files',
        'languages.create'       => 'Can create new language files',
        'languages.edit'         => 'Can edit existing language files',
        'languages.edit_content' => 'Can edit translations within a language file',
        'languages.edit_meta'    => 'Can edit metadata of a language file (e.g., name, locale)',
        'languages.delete'       => 'Can delete language files',
        'languages.manage'       => 'Can manage all aspects of language files (create, edit, delete)',
        'languages.upload'       => 'Can upload language files',
        'languages.download'     => 'Can download language files',
        'languages.import'       => 'Can import translations from an external source',
        'languages.export'       => 'Can export translations to an external source',
        'languages.approve'      => 'Can approve or reject changes made to a language file (for workflows)',

    ];
}

Steps

Setup the codeigniter 4 app starter using composer.
Installed codeigniter shield v1.0.2.
After successfully performing the installation process of "CodeIgniter Shield", create a directory named Config inside /modules/Auth/Config in the project root. Move all auth config related files to this folder. Update everything necessary including namespaces and all.

add newly created namespace to app/Config/Autoload.php:

public $psr4 = [
APP_NAMESPACE => APPPATH,
'Config'      => APPPATH . 'Config',
'Modules\Auth'=> ROOTPATH.'modules/Auth/',
];

Define base permissions to /modules/Auth/Config/AuthGroups with:
```
namespace Modules\Auth\Config;
```

// other stuffs use CodeIgniter\Shield\Config\AuthGroups as ShieldAuthGroups;

class AuthGroups extends ShieldAuthGroups { // other stuffs public array $permissions = [ 'admin.access' => 'Can access the sites admin area', 'admin.settings' => 'Can access the main site settings', 'groups.settings' => 'Can access the groups settings', 'groups.edit' => 'Can edit existing user groups', 'users.list' => 'Can view a list of users in the system', 'users.manage-admins' => 'Can manage other admins', 'users.view' => 'Can view user details', 'users.create' => 'Can create new non-admin users', 'users.edit' => 'Can edit existing non-admin users', 'users.delete' => 'Can delete existing non-admin users', 'users.settings' => 'Can manage User settings in admin area', 'beta.access' => 'Can access beta-level features', 'site.viewOffline' => 'Can view the site even when in "offline" mode', 'widgets.settings' => 'Can view the settings for site Widgets', 'consent.settings' => 'Can view the settings for the Consent module', 'recycler.view' => 'Can view the Recycler area', 'logs.view' => 'Can view the logs', 'logs.manage' => 'Can manage the logs', 'me.edit' => 'Can edit user\'s own settings', 'me.security' => 'Can change user\'s own password', ]; // other stuffs }


the methodology is inspired by [Bonfire 2 Auth Module](https://github.com/lonnieezell/Bonfire2/blob/develop/src/Auth/Config/AuthGroups.php)
