I am thinking about rewriting an existing application which uses PostgreSQL via Django (ORM and Web-Framework written in
Python).
Up to now the permission checks are done at the application level.
Up to now queries like: "Show all items which the current user is allowed to
modify" result in complicated SQL and
this leads to slow queries.
Up to now there is one db-user and the application does the filtering of rows
to prevent application users to see
items which they are not allowed to see.
I guess most web applications work like this.
I would like to reduce the "ifing and elsing" in my python code (less
conditions, less bugs, more SQL, more performance)
How could an application which gets written from scratch use PostgreSQL to
implement
row based permissions?
