#9414: Documentation on has_perm and the permission_required decorator is confusing ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: wallenfe | Owner: nobody Status: new | Milestone: Component: Documentation | Version: 1.0 Keywords: | Stage: Unreviewed Has_patch: 0 | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ The documentation on using has_perm and permission_required is confusing in that it does not define how the permission string that is passed to those functions is defined.
The documentation should mention that the string is: ApplicationName.PermissionName. Since Permissions are defined on models, my first inclination was to try: ModelName.PermissionName This is the documentation page I am referring to: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#topics-auth And an example of the permission string being used, but without an explanation. " def my_view(request): if not (request.user.is_authenticated() and request.user.has_perm('polls.can_vote')): " -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9414> Django <http://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
