Usage

In app/Config/bootstrap.php add: CakePlugin::load('Authorize');

Configuration AclAuthorize:

Setup the authorize class

Example:

    //in $components
    public $components = array(
        'Auth' => array(
            'authorize' => array(
                'Controller',
                'Authorize.Acl' => array('actionPath' => 'Models/')
            )
        )
    );
    //Or in beforeFilter()
    $this->Auth->authorize = array(
        'Controller',
        'Authorize.Acl' => array('actionPath' => 'Models/')
    );

In the above example ControllerAuthorize is checked first. If your Controller::isAuthorized() returns true on admin routing, AclAuthorize will only be checked for non-admin urls. Also you need to set actionPath in a similar way which is used with Actions- and CrudAuthorize.

Configuration HabtmDbAcl:

Setup the HabtmDbAcl adapter

in app/Config/core.php

Configure::write('Acl.classname', 'Authorize.HabtmDbAcl');

Make sure if you need to alter settings for HabtmDbAcl, you pass those to AclComponent $settings['habtm'], and have it loaded before any Auth configuration.

    //in $components
    public $components = array(
        'Acl' => array('habtm' => array(
            'userModel' => 'Users.User',
            'groupAlias' => 'Group'
        )),
        'Auth' => array(
            //your Auth settings
        )
    );
