MicroPermissions.DataAccess 1.0.0

Micro Permissions

Minimalistic ASP.NET Policy/Resource Permissions permission system. It was inspired by Policy-based authorization in ASP.NET Core. The difference here is it was designed to be used across multiple types of projects (service, aspnet core, common libraries), more modular and customaziable while keeping it simple and small.

How to start

1. Install nuget

dotnet add package MicroPermissions.AspNetCore

2. Add permission context

public class PermissionContext
{
    // You can use whatever properties you want, but here is example:
    public string UserName { get; private set; }
    public string[] Roles { get; private set; }

    public PermissionContext()
    {
        // you want to initialize UserName and Permissions depending on your project architecture
        // common case would be fetching from database user and his roles
    }
}

3. Add permission handler or filter

// Typically for operations, creating/updating resources, viewing single entity etc.
public class BasicRequestPermissionHandler : IPermissionHandler<PermissionContext, BasicRequest>
{
    public Task HandleRequestAsync(PermissionContext context, PermissionRequestEventArguments perm, BasicRequest request)
    {
        if (context.Roles.Contains("basic"))
            perm.GrantAccess();

        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }
}

// Typically for returning collection of entities, hiding protected fields etc.
public class TaskPermissionFilter : IPermissionFilter<MyPermissionContext, IQueryable<Task>>
{
    public Task FilterResourceAsync(MyPermissionContext context, PermissionFilterEventArgs<IQueryable<Task>> perm)
    {
        perm.FilteredResource = perm.OriginalResource.Where(task => task.Owner == context.UserName);

        return Task.CompletedTask;
    }
}

you can use whatever logic you want or request type
