m_acl

• Module: core

The m_acl model gives access the id of the currently logged in user, and provides a mechanism to do basic access control checks.

The following m_acl model properties are available in templates:

Property	Description
user	Returns the current user id. If not logged in, this returns undefined.
is_admin	Check if the current user isa lowed to access the admin. Internally, this checks the use, mod_admin_config ACL.
use, admin, view, delete, update, insert	These properties are shortcuts to check if the current user is allowed to do some action.
is_allowed	Perform custom ACL checks which are different from the ones mentioned.

This example prints a greeting to the currently logged in user, if logged in:

{% if m.acl.user %}
    Hello, {{ m.rsc[m.acl.user].title }}!
{% else %}
    Not logged in yet
{% endif %}

This example checks if the user can access the admin pages:

{% if m.acl.is_admin %} You are an admin {% endif %}

This example performs a custom check:

{% if m.acl.is_allowed.use.mod_admin_config %}
User has rights to edit the admin config
{% endif %}
