The Model macro literally does what our model! step did. ```ruby class Song::Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( :authorize! ) step Model( Song, :new ) end ``` Note that Model is not designed for complex query logic - should you need that, you might want to use [Trailblazer Finder][trailblazer_finder_link] or simply write your own customized step. Due to a lot of requests, we have adjusted the `:find_by` method so you can specify a key to find by. ```ruby class Song::Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( :authorize! ) step Model( Song, :find_by, :title ) end ``` Not specifying the third parameter in the Model Macro for `:find_by`, will result in defaulting it back to `:id`. [trailblazer-finder-link]: https://github.com/trailblazer/trailblazer-finder/ ## Policy Macro An optional Policy Macro for Trailblazer Operations that blocks unauthorized users from running the operation. You can abort running an operation using a policy. "Pundit-style" policy classes define the rules. ```ruby class Comment::Policy def initialize(user, comment) @user, @comment = user, comment end def create? @user.admin? end end ``` The rule is enabled via the ::policy call. ```ruby class Comment::Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy( Comment::Policy, :create? ) end ``` The policy is evaluated in #setup!, raises an exception if false and suppresses running #process. ### Policy::Pundit - Macro The Policy::Pundit Macro allows using Pundit-compatible policy classes in an operation. A Pundit policy has various rule methods and a special constructor that receives the current user and the current model. ```ruby class MyPolicy def initialize(user, model) @user, @model = user, model end def create? @user == Module && @model.id.nil? end def new? @user == Class end end ``` In pundit policies, it is a convention to have access to those objects at runtime and build rules on top of those. You can plug this policy into your pipe at any point. However, this must be inserted after the "model" skill is available. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Model( Song, :new ) step Policy::Pundit( MyPolicy, :create? ) # ... end ``` Note that you don’t have to create the model via the Model macro - you can use any logic you want. The Pundit macro will grab the model from ["model"], though. This policy will only pass when the operation is invoked as follows. ```ruby Create.( {}, "current_user" => User.find(1) ) ``` Any other call will cause a policy breach and stop the pipe from executing after the Policy::Pundit step. #### Policy::Pundit - API Add your polices using the Policy::Pundit macro. It accepts the policy class name, and the rule method to call. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Model( Song, :new ) step Policy::Pundit( MyPolicy, :create? ) # ... end ``` The step will create the policy instance automatically for you and passes the "model" and the "current_user" skill into the policies constructor. Just make sure those dependencies are available before the step is executed. If the policy returns falsey, it deviates to the left track. After running the Pundit step, its result is readable from the Result object. ```ruby result = Create.({}, "current_user" => Module) result["result.policy.default"].success? #=> true result["result.policy.default"]["policy"] #=> # ``` Note that the actual policy instance is available via ["result.policy.#{name}"]["policy"] to be reinvoked with other rules (e.g. in the view layer). #### Policy::Pundit - Name You can add any number of Pundit policies to your pipe. Make sure to use name: to name them, though. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Model( Song, :new ) step Policy::Pundit( MyPolicy, :create?, name: "after_model" ) # ... end ``` The result will be stored in "result.policy.#{name}" ```ruby result = Create.({}, "current_user" => Module) result["result.policy.after_model"].success? #=> true ``` #### Policy::Pundit - Dependency Injection Override a configured policy using dependency injection. ```ruby Create.({}, "current_user" => Module, "policy.default.eval" => Trailblazer::Operation::Policy::Pundit.build(AnotherPolicy, :create?) ) ``` You can inject it using "policy.#{name}.eval". It can be any object responding to call. ### Policy::Guard - Macro A guard is a step that helps you evaluating a condition and writing the result. If the condition was evaluated as falsey, the pipe won’t be further processed and a policy breach is reported in Result["result.policy.default"]. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( ->(options, params:, **) { params[:pass] } ) step :process def process(*) self["x"] = true end end ``` The only way to make the above operation invoke the second step :process is as follows. ```ruby result = Create.({ pass: true }) result["x"] #=> true ``` Any other input will result in an abortion of the pipe after the guard. ```ruby result = Create.() result["x"] #=> nil result["result.policy.default"].success? #=> false ``` #### Policy::Guard - API The Policy::Guard macro helps you inserting your guard logic. If not defined, it will be evaluated where you insert it. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( ->(options, params:, **) { params[:pass] } ) # ... end ``` The options object is passed into the guard and allows you to read and inspect data like params or current_user. Please use kw args. #### Policy::Guard - Callable As always, the guard can also be a Callable-marked object. ```ruby class MyGuard include Uber::Callable def call(options, params:, **) params[:pass] end end ``` Insert the object instance via the Policy::Guard macro. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( MyGuard.new ) # ... end ``` #### Policy::Guard - Instance Method As always, you may also use an instance method to implement a guard. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( :pass? ) def pass?(options, params:, **) params[:pass] end # ... end ``` #### Policy::Guard - Name The guard name defaults to default and can be set via name:. This allows having multiple guards. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step Policy::Guard( ->(options, current_user:, **) { current_user }, name: :user ) # ... end ``` The result will sit in result.policy.#{name}. ```ruby result = Create.({}, "current_user" => true) result["result.policy.user"].success? #=> true ``` #### Policy::Guard - Dependency Injection Instead of using the configured guard, you can inject any callable object that returns a Result object. Do so by overriding the policy.#{name}.eval path when calling the operation. ```ruby Create.({}, "current_user" => Module, "policy.default.eval" => Trailblazer::Operation::Policy::Guard.build(->(options) { false }) ) ``` An easy way to let Trailblazer build a compatible object for you is using Guard.build. This is helpful to override a certain policy for testing, or to invoke it with special rights, e.g. for an admin. #### Policy::Guard - Position You may specify a position. ```ruby class Create < Trailblazer::Operation step :model! step Policy::Guard( :authorize! ), before: :model! end ``` Resulting in the guard inserted before model!, even though it was added at a later point. ```ruby puts Create["pipetree"].inspect(style: :rows) #=> # 0 ========================>operation.new # 1 ==================>policy.default.eval # 2 ===============================>model! ``` This is helpful if you maintain modules for operations with generic steps.
