Rights and Roles

This Extension handles several improvements for TYPO3 permission system.

  • Prefix Groups with [G]
  • Prefix Roles with [R]

1. Rights and Roles Matrix

It provides a Backend Module for a list of all Groups starting with [G]. It shows a Matrix of assigned or not assigned rights in table with the information about assignment of right to group (or to role).

2. Overload the access to pages etc

In the default you can only assign a single user or a single group to the access for pages. This is sometimes not the correct way (see https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_Control_List).

So ACLs are not implemented in TYPO3. The solution is this extension.

You can implement the two following hooks in your code to archive this goal:


$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['t3lib/class.t3lib_userauthgroup.php']['getPagePermsClause'][] = function ($params) use ($configuration)
{
    // Call the hook from RightsAndRoles Extension
    $hook = new \BK2K\RightsAndRoles\Hook\BackendUserGroupRightsHook($configuration);
    return $hook->getPagePermsClause($params);
};

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['t3lib/class.t3lib_userauthgroup.php']['calcPerms'][] = function ($params) use ($configuration)
{
    // Call the hook from RightsAndRoles Extension
    $hook = new \BK2K\RightsAndRoles\Hook\BackendUserGroupRightsHook($configuration);
    return $hook->calcPerms($params);
};

Now you are able to configure your permissions.

You have to add the following structure in your configuration:

  EXT
    page:
      debug: 1          # Debug mode flag
      access:           # the Access configuration
        13:
          0: 1

This means, that the group "13" (in this example a base group for simple editor) can read (decimal 1, binary 1) all pages (0). The rights are calulated by standard binary additions (see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission):

  NOTHING: 0       (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::NOTHING)
  PAGE_SHOW: 1     (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::PAGE_SHOW)
  PAGE_EDIT: 2     (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::PAGE_EDIT)
  PAGE_DELETE: 4   (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::PAGE_DELETE)
  PAGE_NEW: 8      (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::PAGE_NEW)
  CONTENT_EDIT: 16 (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::CONTENT_EDIT)
  ALL: 31          (@see \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Type\Bitmask\Permission::ALL)

If a usergroup can view the page and should be able to edit the content, the correct binary value should be "PAGE_SHOW | CONTENT_EDIT", which is calculated in decimal 17. If a usergroup should have a specific access of a single page, you can add this page ID in the group block:

  EXT
    page:
      access:
        13:
          25: 19

With this configuration the usergroup "13" can "PAGE_SHOW && PAGE_EDIT && CONTENT_EDIT" for the Page with ID "25". You can also combine the default page "0" (every page) with specific Page ID like:

  EXT
    page:
      access:
        13:
          0: 1
          25: 19
