Rbacan

a Role-based access control tool to control user access to the functionnalities of your application

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rbacan'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rbacan

run rails generate rbacan:install

copy the content in the generated file db/copy_to_seed.rb in your seeds.rb file you have there all the tools you need to create you roles and permissions

You might need to configure you user class_name if you're using a different class_name for the user, go to rbacan.rb in your initializers folder and make your change

    Rbacan.configure do |config|
    config.permittable_class = "YOUR USER CLASS_NAME"
    end

if you want to assign a role to a user it is simple you just have to do so:

user = current_user

user.assign_role(role_name)

to remove a role from user do this:

user.remove_role(role_name)

now when you want to test if a user have access to a functionnality use this:

user.can?(permission_name)

add this line to your user model:

include Rbacan::Permittable

run:

    rails db:migrate
    rails db:seed

enjoy :D
