Dashlet Permissions

jainkumar11

Hi All,

Greetings!!!!!
I have a custom dashlet which I want to be available only to specific set of users.
And to all other users this dashlet should not be displayed.

Can something of this sort be done in Alfresco.
If yes please provide some pointers.

Thanks
KJ

Hello,

this is totally possible, but the approach to take depends on how you determine the "permission". A simple approach would be group membership based permission, e.g. retrieve the list of groups for the current user and check if a specific group is among them. A very different thing is checking for a permission applied on a specific node - here you would have to retrieve the node info and permissions granted to the current user on that node. Both approaches require your web script controller to make a remote call to a repository web script to retrieve the necessary data. More complex requirements may force you to adapt or implement a web script in the repository to suit your needs…

Hi,

Maybe this can help you to give you an idea, because I had to do something similar, for checking if a user is member from a particular site. If the user is not member of a site, then you do not give the content:

String site = req.getParameter("site");
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;String userName = req.getParameter("userName");
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;String jsonRes = new String();
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//Verify if the user is registered in the site.
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;boolean isMember = siteService.isMember(site, userName);
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if(isMember){
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//TODO something…
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;else{
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;//TODO something…
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

That code is implemented with java, but the services are also available with JSON. All depends how you are programming your webscript.

As you can see I used the siteService, so I guess you have to look for the service you need

I hope this can help you.

Regards!
