Ar-acl
Introduction
Ar-acl is Access Control Library for codeigniter. This library works with two methods.
1. User access control by role, e.g:
a) “admin/” is admin page that can be accessed only by admin.
b) “salary/” is employer’s salary page that can be edited by hrd dept and accounting dept.
2. User access control by Very Private Page (VPP) check, e.g:
a) “profile/edit/john.r” is a page to edit profile information that can be edited ONLY by user who logged on with username “john.r”.
Features
1. Restrict user based on role group.
2. Restrict user to access, edit or delete other user private page.
Advantages
1. No database needed. Work faster.
2. No need to modify controller. This library is autoloaded.
Set Up
1. Add ar_acl to the autoload libraries to use it.
$autoload['libraries'] = array('ar_acl');
2. Copy folder config and libaries to application folder.
