Even though CakePHP provides a very powerful access control layer, sometimes we just need to implement user roles without having to go into the details of specifying which role is allowed access to which action.
This recipe shows how to limit access to certain actions by role-using routing prefixes, which constitutes a perfect solution for simple role-based authentication. In order to accomplish this recipe, we will assume the need to add three user roles in our application: administrators, managers, and users.
We should have a working authentication system, so follow the recipe, Setting up a basic authentication system. The users
table should also contain a field to hold the user's role (named role
.) Add this field with the following SQL statement:
ALTER TABLE `users` ADD COLUMN `role` VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT NULL AFTER `password`;
- Edit your
app/config/core.php
file and look for the line that defines theRouting.prefixes
setting. If it is commented out, uncomment it. Then change it to:Configure::write('Routing.prefixes', array('admin', 'manager'));
- Add the following code at the end of your
UsersController
class definition:public function dashboard() { $role = $this->Auth->user('role'); if (!empty($role)) { $this->redirect(array($role => true, 'action' => 'dashboard')); } } public function admin_dashboard() { } public function manager_dashboard() { }
- Create a view for each of these actions, and put content into it to reflect which view is being rendered. Therefore, you would have to create three files:
app/views/users/admin_dashboard.ctp
app/views/users/manager_dashboard.ctp
app/views/users/dashboard.ctp
For example, the contents for
dashboard.ctp
could simply be:<p>Dashboard (User)</p>
- Edit your
app/controllers/app_controller.php
file and change thecomponents
property declaration to include the following setting for theAuth
component:public $components = array( 'Auth' => array( 'authorize' => 'controller', 'loginRedirect' => array( 'admin' => false, 'controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'dashboard' ) ), 'Session' );
- While still editing your
AppController
class, change theisAuthorized
method and replace it entirely with the following:public function isAuthorized() { $role = $this->Auth->user('role'); $neededRole = null; $prefix = !empty($this->params['prefix']) ? $this->params['prefix'] : null; if ( !empty($prefix) && in_array($prefix, Configure::read('Routing.prefixes')) ) { $neededRole = $prefix; } return ( empty($neededRole) || strcasecmp($role, 'admin') == 0 || strcasecmp($role, $neededRole) == 0 ); }
- Copy the default CakePHP layout file named
default.ctp
from yourcake/libs/view/layouts
folder to your application'sapp/views/layouts
folder. While editing this layout, place the following code in theapp/views/layouts/default.ctp
layout file, right where you want the link to the dashboard to appear.<?php $dashboardUrl = array('controller'=>'users', 'action'=>'dashboard'); if (!empty($user['role'])) { $dashboardUrl[$user['role']] = true; } echo $this->Html->link('My Dashboard', $dashboardUrl); ?>
CakePHP will recognize prefixes defined in the Routing.prefixes
setting as part of the URL, when they are preceding a normal route. For example, if admin
is a defined prefix, the route /admin/articles/index
will translate to the admin_index
action in ArticlesController
.
Since we are utilizing the controller authentication scheme in the Auth
configuration, we know that every time a user is trying to access a non-public action, AppController::isAuthorized()
is executed, and inside the method we set true
if the user has access, or false
otherwise.
Knowing that, we can check to see if a prefix is being used when a controller action is about to be executed. If the current route being accessed includes a prefix, we can match that prefix against the user's role to make sure they have access to the requested resource.
We are able to link to a role-only resource just by prefixing it with the appropriate prefix in the route. For example, to link to the manager's dashboard, the URL would be:
array( 'manager' => true, 'controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'dashboard' );
