angular-shiro-custom

angular-shiro-custom !Build Status
====================

This is customized version of angular-shiro package from (https://github.com/gnavarro77/angular-shiro)

angular-shiro is an attempt to bring Apache Shiro to the AngularJS world.

What is it all about?

angular-shiro-custom is born out of the such simple needs as

if the user is not an admin then this button must not be available*
if the user does not have that permission then he should not be able to do or access that action or resource*

As Apache Shiro is all about those issues (and more), instead of reinventing the wheel, angular-shiro-custom is strongly inspired, if not more, from its JAVA mentor.

Getting started

$3

Using bower

bower install angular-shiro-custom --save

or by downloading project as zip

angular-shiro-custom

$3

- Load angular-shiro-custom script

``javascript

`
- Add angular-shiro-custom module to your application module dependencies

`javascript
angular.module('myApp', ['angularShiro', ...])
`
- Authenticate Subject/User to your application

`javascript
subject.login(new UsernamePasswordToken('myLogin','myPassword')
.then(function(data){
// do whatever you need on successful authentication
}, function(data){
// do whatever you need on authentication failure
});
`
- Apply your authorization rules

`javascript
// This button is visible only to authenticated Subject having the ADMIN role
type="button"
class="btn btn-default"
ng-click="edit()"
has-role="'ADMIN'">Edit
`

Authentication

Authentication is Subject based.

The Subject is availbale for injection under the name subject.

You can make a login attempt for a Subject/user through the use of subject method login(token)

var token = new UsernamePasswordToken('username','password');
subject.login(token);

The default authentication mecanism is to send a POST request to /api/authenticate with the following post data :

{"token":{"principal":"username","credentials":"password"}}

The response returned from the backend have to be a json object that comply to the following structure :

{
info : {
authc : {
principal : {
// the Suject/User principal, for example
"login":"edegas",
"apiKey":"*"
},
credentials : {
// the Subject/User credentials, for example
"name" : "Edgar Degas",
"email":"degas@mail.com"
}
},
authz : {
// list of the Subject/User roles, for example
roles:["GUEST"],
// list of the Subject/User permissions, for example
permissions:["newsletter:read","book:*"]
}
}
}

Authorization

The authorization support is based on the same elements of Authorization as Apache Shiro.

Authorization can be done in 2 ways :

* Programmatically, in interacting directly with the current Subject instance
* Directives, in adding directives on UI elements

$3

#### Programmatically

| Subject Method | Description
| ------------- |-------------
| hasRole(roleName) | Returns true if the Subject is assigned the specified role, false otherwise.
| hasRoles(roleNames)| Returns an array of hasRole results corresponding to the indices in the method argument
|hasAllRoles(roleNames)|Returns true if the Subject is assigned all of the specified roles, false otherwise.

#### Directives

* has-role
* lacks-role
* has-any-role

$3

#### Programmatically

| Subject Method | Description
| ------------- |-------------
| isPermitted(permission) | Returns true if the Subject is permitted to perform an action or access a resource summarized by the specified permission, false otherwise
|isPermitted(permissions)| Returns an array of isPermitted results corresponding to the indices in the method argument
|isPermittedAll(permissions)|Returns true if the Subject is permitted all of the specified permissions, false otherwise

#### Directives

* has-permission
* lacks-permission

$3

angular-shiro offers the ability to define ad-hoc filter chains for any matching $location path in your application.

Use angularShiroConfig setFilter(path, filter(s)) to associate the filter(s) to the paths.

app.config(['angularShiroConfigProvider', function(config) {
config.setFilter('/admin/**', 'roles["ADMIN","GUEST"]');
} ]);

For example,

config.setFilter('/admin/**','authc, roles["ADMIN"]');

declares that any path matching /admin or any of its sub paths (ex : /admin/user,/admin/user/profile) will trigger the authc, roles["ADMIN"] filter chain in that order.

or in other words

config.setFilter('/newsletter/*','perms["newsletter:read", "newsletter:edit"]');

declares that to access any path matching /newsletter or matching any of its first level sub paths (ex : /newsletter/:id) the Subject\User must
be granted with the read or edit permission on the newsletter` entity.

$3

|Filter Name | Description
| ------------- |-------------
| anon | Filter that allows access to a path immediately without performing security checks of any kind
| authc | Filter that allows access if the current user is authenticated, otherwise forces the user to login by redirecting to the configured path
| logout | Filter that immediately log-out the current user and redirect him to the configured path
| perms | Filter that allows access if the current user has the permissions specified by the mapped value, or denies access if the user does not have all of the permissions specified and redirect him to the configured path
| roles | Filter that allows access if the current user has the roles specified by the mapped value, or denies access if the user does not have all of the roles specified and redirect him to the configured path
