#13503: Documentation for "Custom permissions" is misleading ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ Reporter: dmoisset | Owner: nobody Status: new | Milestone: Component: Documentation | Version: 1.1 Keywords: | Stage: Unreviewed Has_patch: 0 | ---------------------------+------------------------------------------------ The documentation at http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#id2 gives an example of custom permissions. It Creates a "USCitizen" model, and custom permissions "can drive", "can vote", etc. These makes it look like the permissions system allows you to describe actions performed by models; when actually the permission system allows you to describe actions performed by *users* (django.contrib.auth.models.User) over other models.
A more realistic (and useful) example, would be something on the lines of a model "Article" with permissions "can publish" and "can edit title", for example -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/13503> 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.
