User groups for Decorators?

Hello,

Is it possible to have a decorator work only for a specific user group?

If not, what is the best way to check if a user is in the admin group inside a decorator?

Thanks

Where do you want to use the decorator? Frontend? Admin backend?

Hello, I wanted to use the decorator in the backend.
I think I already found the solution.

Solution if you want to use the group ID:

Code: Select all

$context = $this->context();

$customer = \Aimeos\MShop::create( $context, 'customer' )->get( $context->user() );

$groups = $customer->getGroups();

$isAdmin = in_array( 1, $groups );
$isEditor = in_array( 2, $groups );

dump( 'isAdmin', $isAdmin );
dump( 'isEditor', $isEditor );
dump( 'isSuper', $customer->isSuper() );

Solution if you want to use the group code:

Code: Select all

$context = $this->context();

$customer = \Aimeos\MShop::create( $context, 'customer' )->get( $context->user() );

$groups = $customer->getRefItems( 'customer/group' );

$isAdmin = (bool) $groups->find( function( $value, $key ) {
	return $value->getCode() === 'admin';
});

$isEditor = (bool) $groups->find( function( $value, $key ) {
	return $value->getCode() === 'editor';
});

dump( 'isAdmin', $isAdmin );
dump( 'isEditor', $isEditor );
dump( 'isSuper', $customer->isSuper() );

But I don't need this code anymore, because I've created the decorator in a different way.
It used to mess with order modifications in the frontend, but I think it's fixed now.
The decorator is in a different location now -> Aimeos\Admin\JQAdm\Common\Decorator.
Used to be in Aimeos\MShop\Common\Manager\Decorator.

Don't mess with group IDs and use the access() view helper instead:

I tried this, but in the following case the user is in the admin group, but not in the editor group.

Code: Select all

$view = $this->view();
dump( $view->access( ['editor'] ) );

Whatever I put in the array, be it 'editor', 'admin', it always returns true.

This is done in a decorator Aimeos\Admin\JQAdm\Common\Decorator\<My Decorator>::save()

It's OK to do that in a decorator or a template - that doesn't matter.
If it returns true in both cases, then the user must be in both groups because the code for checking is very easy:
