Add management GUI

[ohadco]

Hi, I'm trying to create an administration page where I can see all of the users using my app. I have created a controller with privileges only for me, and I have a regular index view. In this controller I can access the users by using '@users = User.all' but when I try to get to the tenant (to show it's ID and name), I can't do that. Any suggestions how can I access all the tenants from this admin controller?

Thanks!

If you set up User and Tenant models per the README instructions, then there will be no difference between accessing User.all and Tenant.all, since neither of them are tenanted tables. When you have a given user x, then list = x.tenants will be the list of all tenants belonging to that user. So, list.first.name will be the name of the first tenant for user x; list.first.id will be the tenant id, etc.

I think, however, you want to be very careful about constructing a frontdoor unlimited access for an admin, such as you are describing. With my web app, I accomplished those objectives with rake tasks which only I can run from the platform itself. Not a frontdoor solution. It is very dangerous - from a security standpoint - to have special rights for a user that are really beyond the scope of the app itself.

I cannot use 'user.tenant' \ 'user.tenants' since the user table has an empty tenant_id attribute for all of the rows (looks like milia config - I guess it's because of user's model 'acts_as_universal_and_determines_account'). The connection is from the Member - it has both user_id and tenant_id. Is there anything wrong with my configurations? the user should hold value for tenant_id?

Thanks.

yes, something is definitely wrong with the setup. Member has been setup incorrectly. You must have "acts_as_universal_and_determines_tenant" in the Tenant model only. Member should have: "acts_as_tenant". Please look carefully again at the README.

Tenant model has 'acts_as_universal_and_determines_tenant' Member model has 'acts_as_tenant' User model has 'acts_as_universal_and_determines_account'

is that O.K.?

yes, that is correct. Make sure that your db/migrate files are correct as well and that there is a xxxxxx_create_tenants_users_join_table.rb there: class CreateTenantsUsersJoinTable < ActiveRecord::Migration def change create_join_table :tenants, :users do |t| t.index [:tenant_id, :user_id]

t.index [:user_id, :tenant_id]

end

end end
