Make rocket-authz middleware

[hsluoyz]

Rocket is one of the top web frameworks in Rust. We already made a Actix middleware (#92) but haven't got a Rocket one.

I think this demo (https://github.com/oiatz/Rocket_Casbin_Demo) is not enough. We will need a full-fledged rocket-authz middleware here: https://github.com/casbin-rs/rocket-authz

The Rocket community has urgent need for good authorization:

• Add auth support as contrib library rwf2/Rocket#8
• https://github.com/SergioBenitez/Rocket/search?q=auth&type=Issues

Who can help on Rocket?

seems @hackerchai wants to work on this. I'm not sure if Rocket supports middleware...

[hackerchai]

I will check it these days.@GopherJ

Can anyone work on this?

Can anyone work on this?

@hsluoyz I have researched for rocket middleware. I will take this task. If anyone can implement it right now it is also welcomed.

@hsluoyz I think this issue is high priority. I will start to work on this right now.

@hackerchai OK. I have created the repo here: https://github.com/casbin-rs/rocket-authz. Looking forward to your progress and PRs! This step means a lot to us and should be highly prioritized.

@hsluoyz Now the current job in my hand is making real-world-example using actix casbin middleware. After done that, I will put myself in the rocket middeware.

Just need to add Enforcer to Rocket State, and get this in Request Guards.
I've written a demo for this Rocket_Casbin_Demo

[hsluoyz]

@simoin can you add a README?

[ghost]

@hsluoyz Done

[hsluoyz]

I'm not an expert on either Rust or Rocket. @GopherJ @hackerchai @PsiACE Can you give some comments on: https://github.com/simoin/Rocket_Casbin_Demo ?

@simoin Thanks for your work. Maybe Fairing is a better method to implement Casbin middleware for Rocket.

@hackerchai Exactly, you could refer to rocket_contrib::database do

[hsluoyz]

@simoin can you add this middleware to our official site?

[ghost]

@hsluoyz it is just a binary, not a middleware library.

[hsluoyz]

@simoin Can it be regarded as an example project to show how to integrate Casbin-RS into Rocket?

[ghost]

I've rewrote the proj with Fairing.

[hsluoyz]

OK. Can you add this to our official site?

[ghost]

@hsluoyz I've sent a PR to casbin-website.

[hsluoyz]

@simoin thanks! Merged: casbin/casbin-website#122
