Cancan::Export
It is the rewrite of a vital parts of CanCan v.1.13.1 classes: Ability and Rule.
All method names writen in a snake case is rewrites of the CanCan ones.
This rewrite is simplified since we don't have ORM objects and real DB relations.
All we have on the client-side is plain old objects,
though as long as each object has _type' or type' property, it can be identified as an object of a specific model.
Usage
ability = new CanCanAbility(gon)
ability.can('read', 'CustomerOrder')
// => true or false
customerOrder = {partner_id: 123}
// or with restmod
customerOrder = CustomerOrder.$build({ partner_id: 123 })
ability.can('edit', customerOrder)
// => true, if a partner can edit only his orders and gon.user.partner_id == 123With angular
// include CanCan service into the $rootScope,
MyApp.run(['$rootScope', 'CanCan', function($rootScope, CanCan) {
angular.extend($rootScope, CanCan);
...
}])
// then, in templates you can authorize parts like
can('edit', customerOrder)
// and check the permissions in a controller like
$scope.can('edit', $scope.customerOrder)
