  class Access

    # # # # # # # #
    # The Access class is responsible for checking if an attribute
    # can be read or written. It uses 7 access levels and the
    # read and write attributes in the schema yml file for the model.
    #
    # If your current access level is above the key level, then you
    # can read or write, if not you get nil. This is very useful for APIs
    # where f.ex. you want to show the email to logged in users, but not to all.
    #

    # Access levels (7)
    AL = [:all, :user, :owner, :dev, :admin, :super, :app]

    # Holds the keys from the model schema
    attr_accessor :keys

    # The access control class
    def initialize(schema)
      @keys = schema.keys
    end

    # Key readable?
    def read?(key)
      ok?(@keys[key][:read] || :all) rescue false
    end

    # Key writable?
    def write?(key)
      ok?(@keys[key][:write] || :all) rescue false
    end

    # Ok?
    def ok?(level)
      !Mongocore.access || (g = self.class.get).nil? || AL.index(level.to_sym) <= AL.index(g || :app)
