NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::Authorization::Driver::SimpleGroup - Simple Group based Authorization driver

SYNOPSIS

	use base qw(CGI::Application);
	use CGI::Application::Plugin::Authorization;

	__PACKAGE__->authz->config(
	      DRIVER => [ 'SimpleGroup' ],
	      # You are responsible for setting a group param somehow!
	      GET_USERNAME => sub { my $authz = shift; return $authz->cgiapp->session->param('group') },
	);

DESCRIPTION

       This driver achieves simplicity by assuming that the "username" method of CGI::Application::Plugin::Authorization will return a group
       rather than a username. Thus it can be directly compared with the list of authorized groups passed to authorize

EXAMPLE

	use base qw(CGI::Application);
	use CGI::Application::Plugin::Authorization;

	__PACKAGE__->authz->config(
	   DRIVER => [ 'SimpleGroup' ],
	   # You are responsible for setting a group param somehow!
	   GET_USERNAME => sub {
	       my $authz = shift;
	       return $authz->cgiapp->session->param('group');
	   },
	);

	sub cgiapp_prerun {
	   my $self = shift;

	   # here is an example of how you could set the
	   # group param that will be tested later
	   if ($ENV{REMOTE_USER} eq 'mark') {
	       $self->session->param('group' => 'admin');
	   }
	}

	sub my_runmode {
	   my $self = shift;

	   # make sure the user has 'admin' privileges
	   return $self->authz->forbidden unless $self->authz->authorize('admin');

	   # if we get here the user has 'admin' privileges
	}

METHODS

   authorize_user
       This method is not intended to be used directly. Just follow the SYNOPSIS.

       This method accepts a username followed by a list of group names and will return true if the user belongs to at least one of the groups.

NAME

       CGI::Application::Plugin::Authorization::Driver::DBI - DBI Authorization driver

SYNOPSIS

	use base qw(CGI::Application);
	use CGI::Application::Plugin::Authorization;

	# Simple task based authentication
	__PACKAGE__->authz->config(
	    DRIVER => [ 'DBI',
		TABLES	    => ['account', 'task'],
		JOIN_ON     => 'account.id = task.accountid',
		USERNAME    => 'account.name',
		CONSTRAINTS => {
		    'task.name' => '__PARAM_1__',
		}
	    ],
	);
	if ($self->authz->authorize('editfoo') {
	   # User is allowed access if it can 'editfoo'
	}

DESCRIPTION

       This Authorization driver uses the DBI module to allow you to gather authorization information from any database for which there is a DBD
       module.	You can either provide an active database handle, or provide the parameters necessary to connect to the database.

   DBH
       The DBI database handle to use. Defaults to "$self->dbh()", which is provided and configured through CGI::Application::Plugin::DBH

       When describing the database structure you have two options:

       TABLE(S), JOIN_ON, USERNAME and CONSTRAINTS:
	   Use these values to describe the table structure, and an sql statement will be automatically generated to query the database

       SQL:
	   just provide one SQL parameters that gives a complete sql statement that will be used to query the database

       Following is a description of all the available parameters:

   TABLE(S)
       Provide either a single table name, or an array of table names.	You can give the table names aliases which can be referenced in later
       columns.

	    TABLE => 'group',

	- or -

	    TABLES => ['user U', 'group G'],

   JOIN_ON
       If you have specified multiple tables, then you need to provide an SQL expression that can be used to join those tables.

	    JOIN_ON => 'user.id = group.userid',

	- or -

	    JOIN_ON => 'U.id = G.userid',

   USERNAME
       This should be set to the column name that contains the username.  This column will be compared against the currently logged in user.

	    USERNAME => 'name'

	- or -

	    USERNAME => 'U.name'

   CONSTRAINTS
       Constraints are used to restrict the database query against the options that are passed to the "authorize" method.  In the common case, you
       will check these parameters against a group permission table, although there is no limit to the number of parameters that can be used.
       Each constraint can be set to a static value, or it can be set to '__PARAM_n__' where 'n' is the position of the parameter that is passed
       in to the "authorize" method.

	    CONSTRAINTS => {
		'user.active' => 't',
		'group.type'  => '__PARAM_1__',
		'group.name'  => '__PARAM_2__',
	    }

   SQL
       If you need to perform a complex query that can not be defined by the above syntax, then you can provide your own SQL statment where the
       first placeholder is used to fill in the username, and the rest of the placeholders are filled in using the parameters passed to the
       authorize method.

	    SQL => 'SELECT count(*)
		      FROM account
		      LEFT JOIN ip ON (account.id = ip.accountid)
		      LEFT JOIN task ON (account.id = task.accountid)
		     WHERE account.name = ?
		       AND (ip.address >> inet ? OR task.name = ?)
		   ',

EXAMPLE

	#
	# Example table structure (for PostgreSQL):
	#
	CREATE TABLE account (
	  id	     SERIAL NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
	  name	     VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
	);
	CREATE TABLE task (
	  id	     SERIAL NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
	  accountid  INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES account(id),
	  name	     VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL
	);
	CREATE TABLE ip (
	  id	     SERIAL NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
	  accountid  INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES account(id),
	  address    INET NOT NULL
	);
	INSERT INTO account (name) VALUES ('testuser');
	INSERT INTO task (accountid, name) VALUES (1, 'editfoo');
	INSERT INTO ip (accountid, address) VALUES (1, '192.168.1.0/24');

	# Simple task based authentication
	__PACKAGE__->authz->config(
	    DRIVER => [ 'DBI',
		# the handle comes from $self->dbh, via the "DBH" plugin.
		TABLES	    => ['account', 'task'],
		JOIN_ON     => 'account.id = task.accountid',
		USERNAME    => 'account.name',
		CONSTRAINTS => {
		    'task.name'   => '__PARAM_1__',
		    'task.active' => 't'
		}
	    ],
	);
	if ($self->authz->authorize('editfoo') {
	   # User is allowed access if they can 'editfoo'
	}

	# IP address configuration
	__PACKAGE__->authz('byIP')->config(
	    DRIVER => [ 'DBI',
		SQL => 'SELECT count(*)
			  FROM account JOIN ip ON (account.id = ip.accountid)
			 WHERE account.name = ?
			   AND ip.address >> inet ?
		       ',
	    ],
	);
	if ($self->authz('byIP')->authorize($ENV{REMOTE_ADDR}) {
	   # User is allowed to connect from this address
	}

	# both together in one test
	# IP address configuration
	__PACKAGE__->authz->config(
	    DRIVER => [ 'DBI',
		SQL => 'SELECT count(*)
			  FROM account
			  JOIN ip ON (account.id = ip.accountid)
			  JOIN task ON (account.id = task.accountid)
			 WHERE account.name = ?
			   AND task.name = ?
			   AND ip.address >> inet ?
		       ',
	    ],
	);
	if ($self->authz->authorize('editfoo', $ENV{REMOTE_ADDR}) {
	   # User is allowed to connect from this address if they can
	   # also 'editfoo'
	}

METHODS

   authorize_user
       This method accepts a username followed by a list of parameters and will return true if the configured query returns at least one row based
       on the given parameters.
