Hi, When referring to GeoFence I'm referring to GeoServer geofence-server community module.
GeoFence security rules are considered by their priority, so is very important to users be able to manage rules priority. Right now in GeoServer rules priorities can be managed by drag and drop or with up and down buttons. The current GeoFence REST interface allow us to retrieve security rules with some filters and to perform CRUD operations. When building an external UI to manage GeoFence security rules I came to the use case were I need an operation that will allow me to move rules between several pages updating their priorities. Use case, the user is visualizing security rules with pagination and he is currently on page 2 and he wants to select some rules and move them to the previous page updating those rules priority. I would like to extend the current GeoFence REST interface: http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/user/community/geofence-server/rest.html with a resource that allow us to move one or more rules between several pages updating their priority. The resource will accept as parameters the same parameters as the current resource used to retrieve rules, a list containing the ids of the rules that need to be moved and the targeted page. Moving a set of rules to another page means assigning to the moved rules a lower priority than the first rule of the targeted page. If a filter is active it will be taken in account to find the rule with the highest priority of the targeted page. Opinions on this ?
