I use angular-permission and I want to check if user has access to specific states.
My state config:
$stateProvider
.state('app', {
url: '/',
abstract: true,
data: {
permissions: {
only: ['BASE']
}
}
})
Is there a method or something which I can use in controllers to determine it?
// somewhere in controller
if (Permission.hasAccessToState('app')) {
// I want to check if user has access to state without navigating to it
};
If anyone is interested, here is a corresponding discussion on github.
I did not find something in the documentation wiki. But according to the source and comment there seems to be an Authorization
Service available which u can take advantage of.
//inject PermissionMap and Authorization
App.controller('Controller',function(PermissionMap,Authorization,$scope) {
//get the state by name an assign it to `state`
var permissionMap = new PermissionMap(state.data.permissions);
var authorizationResult = Authorization.authorize(permissionMap);
authorizationResult
.then(function () {
//authorized
})
.catch(function (rejectedPermission) {
//unauthorized
});
});
Check out this code and see if it works
UPDATE
After ur reply, i looked deeper into the code. Maybe we need StatePermissionMap and StateAuthorization instead.
var statePermissionMap = new StatePermissionMap(state);
StateAuthorization
.authorize(statePermissionMap)
.then(function () {
//authorized
})
.catch(function (rejectedPermission) {
//unauthorized
})
