Installation

# NPM
npm install casbin.js@next --save

# Yarn
yarn add casbin.js@next

Get started

New a casbin.js enforcer with a model string and a memory policy, see Model section for details:

import { newEnforcer, newModel, MemoryAdapter } from 'casbin.js';

const model = newModel(`
[request_definition]
r = sub, obj, act

[policy_definition]
p = sub, obj, act

[role_definition]
g = _, _

[policy_effect]
e = some(where (p.eft == allow))

[matchers]
m = g(r.sub, p.sub) && r.obj == p.obj && r.act == p.act
`);

const adapter = new MemoryAdapter(`
p, alice, data1, read
p, bob, data2, write
p, data2_admin, data2, read
p, data2_admin, data2, write

g, alice, data2_admin
`);

const enforcer = await newEnforcer(model, adapter);

Note: you can also initialize an enforcer with policy in DB instead of file, see Persistence section for details.

Add an enforcement hook into your code right before the access happens:

const sub = 'alice'; // the user that wants to access a resource.
const obj = 'data1'; // the resource that is going to be accessed.
const act = 'read'; // the operation that the user performs on the resource.

// Async:
const res = await enforcer.enforce(sub, obj, act);
// Sync:
// const res = enforcer.enforceSync(sub, obj, act);

if (res) {
  // permit alice to read data1
} else {
  // deny the request, show an error
}

Besides the static policy file, casbin.js also provides API for permission management at run-time. For example, You can get all the roles assigned to a user as below:

const roles = await enforcer.getRolesForUser('alice');

See Policy management APIs for more usage.

Policy management

Casbin provides two sets of APIs to manage permissions:

Management API: the primitive API that provides full support for Casbin policy management.
RBAC API: a more friendly API for RBAC. This API is a subset of Management API. The RBAC users could use this API to simplify the code.
