[Grok-dev] Security declarations

[Marc Rijken]

Hi,

In the security declarations we have to use the name of the permission. 
For me it is more logical and less error sensitive when the string may 
be replaced by the class.

The current situation is:

class FooPermssion(grok.Permission):
     grok.name('foo.permission')
     grok.title('Foo Permission')

class FooRole(grok.Role):
     grok.name('foo.Role')
     grok.title('Foo Role')
     grok.permissions(
         'foo.permission', # string
         )

class FooView(grok.View):
     grok.name('index.html')
     grok.require('foo.permission') # string

My preferred situation is:

class FooPermssion(grok.Permission):
     grok.name('foo.permission')
     grok.title('Foo Permission')

class FooRole(grok.Role):
     grok.name('foo.Role')
     grok.title('Foo Role')
     grok.permissions(
         FooPermission,  # class instead of string
         )

class FooView(grok.View):
     grok.name('index.html')
     grok.require(FooPermission) # class instead of string

What do you think?

Regards,

Marc
