[bug] roles - Roles are not easily manageable #190

Closed funcyChaos closed 1 month ago

funcyChaos commented 9 months ago

I can see different roles as an enum as well as here and there in the code base, for authentication and controllers I don't see a way to assign a role to a user or what the default role for new users would be I also don't see a way to adjust the ability of roles, like to disallow them from making new Inns

I am still a bit new to MVC and I am new to Rust, but I am familiar with C and C++ which feels at least similar. I will look into solving this for myself, but would appreciate either advise or any other direction

Cheers, Funcy

Yeah, almost everything is hard-coded. I did have a plan to refactor this part, but I need more info to architect it properly.

Let me know if I can help? I definitely think it could be built pretty similarly to wordpress ( :eyes: )

Thanks for your feedback. The role-based access control is a feature that I'm working on. And there is a crate called oso that might be helpful. The problem is that freedit is lack of users, so I don't know which access should be controlled.
