BjyAuthorize - Acl security for ZF2

Deprecated

This package is now officially deprecated and will not receive any future updates or bug fixes.

As long-term support for Zend Framework 2 ended on 2018-03-31, any users who currently rely on this package are heavily encouraged to migrate to Zend Framework 3 or another framework.

This module is designed to provide a facade for Zend\Permissions\Acl that will ease its usage with modules and applications. By default, it provides simple setup via config files or by using Zend\Db or Doctrine ORM/ODM (via ZfcUserDoctrineORM).

What does BjyAuthorize do?

BjyAuthorize adds event listeners to your application so that you have a "security" or "firewall" that disallows unauthorized access to your controllers or routes.

This is what a normal Zend\Mvc application workflow would look like:

And here's how it would look like with BjyAuthorize enabled:

Requirements

Installation

Composer

The suggested installation method is via composer:

php composer.phar require bjyoungblood/bjy-authorize:1.4.*
php composer.phar require zf-commons/zfc-user:0.1.*

Configuration

Following steps apply if you want to use ZfcUser with Zend\Db. If you want to use Doctrine ORM/ODM, you should also check the doctrine documentation.

  1. Ensure that following modules are enabled in your application.config.php file in the this order:
    • ZfcBase
    • ZfcUser
    • BjyAuthorize
  2. Import the SQL schema located in ./vendor/BjyAuthorize/data/schema.sql.
  3. Create a ./config/autoload/bjyauthorize.global.php file and fill it with configuration variable values as described in the following annotated example.

Here is an annotated sample configuration file:

<?php

// For PHP <= 5.4, you should replace any ::class references with strings
// remove the first \ and the ::class part and encase in single quotes

return [
    'bjyauthorize' => [

        'default_role' => 'guest',

         * be applied to the active user. the identity provider tells us which
         * roles the "identity role" should inherit from.
         * for ZfcUser, this will be your default identity provider
        */
        'identity_provider' => \BjyAuthorize\Provider\Identity\ZfcUserZendDb::class,

         *

         */

        /* role providers simply provide a list of roles that should be inserted
         * into the Zend\Acl instance. the module comes with two providers, one

Helpers and Plugins

There are view helpers and controller plugins registered for this module. In either a controller or a view script, you can call $this->isAllowed($resource[, $privilege]), which will query the ACL using the currently authenticated (or default) user's roles.

Whenever you need to stop processing your action you can throw an UnAuthorizedException and users will see you message on a 403 page.

function cafeAction() {
    if (!$this->isAllowed('alcohol', 'consume')) {
        throw new \BjyAuthorize\Exception\UnAuthorizedException('Grow a beard first!');
    }

    // party on ...
}
