# # Defines the authentication behavior for controllers in BrowserCMS. It can be added to any controller that needs to # hook into the BrowserCMS Authentication behavior like so: # # class MySuperSecureController < ApplicationController # include Cms::Authentication::Controller # # 1. Guests - These represents users that are not logged in. What guests can see and do can be modified via the CMS UI. Guests # are not considered to be 'logged in'. # 2. 'Current' User - The currently logged in user is stored in a thread local, and can be accessed anywhere via 'Cms::User.current'. # This allows model code to easily record which user is making changes to records, for versioning, etc. # # 3. 'Admin' Access Denied Page - If users try to access a protected controller, they are redirected to the CMS administration Login page # which may be different than the 'front end' user login page. (Cms::Controller handles that differently) # # # To Dos: It appears as though we are storing the 'current' user in two places, @current_user and Cms::User.current. This is probably not DRY, but # more testing would be needed. # module Cms module Authentication module Controller # Inclusion hook to make #current_user and #logged_in? # available as ActionView helper methods. def self.included(base) base.send :helper_method, :current_user, :logged_in? if base.respond_to? :helper_method base.extend ClassMethods base.send :include, Cms::UsersService.controller_module end module ClassMethods # Determines if the current user has at least one of the following permissions.
