defmodule Janus.Authorization do @moduledoc """ Authorize and load resources using policies. Policy modules expose a minimal API that can be used to authorize and load resources throughout the rest of your application. * `authorize/4` - authorize an individual, already-loaded resource * `scope/4` - construct an `Ecto` query for a schema that will filter results to only those that are authorized * `any_authorized?/3` - checks whether the given actor/policy has _any_ access to the given schema for the given action These functions will usually be called from your policy module directly, since wrappers that accept either a policy or an actor are injected when you invoke `use Janus`. Documentation examples will show usage from your policy module. See individual function documentation for details.

This function is most useful in conjunction with `scope/4`, which builds an `Ecto` query that filters to only those resources the actor is authorized for. If you run the resulting query and receive `[]`, it is not possible to determine whether the result is empty because the actor wasn't authorized for _any_ resources or because of other restrictions on the query. For example, you might use the following pattern to load all the resources a user is allowed to read that were inserted in the last day: query = from(r in MyResource, where: r.inserted_at > from_now(-1, "day")) if any_authorized?(query, :read, user) do {:ok, scope(query, :read, user) |> Repo.all()} else {:error, :not_authorized} end This would result in `{:ok, results}` if the user is authorized to read any resources, even if the result set is empty, and would result in `{:error, :not_authorized}` if the user isn't authorized to read the resources at all. ## Examples iex> MyPolicy.any_authorized?(MyResource, :read, actor) true iex> MyPolicy.any_authorized?(MyResource, :delete, actor) false """ @spec any_authorized?(filterable, Janus.action(), Policy.t()) :: boolean() def any_authorized?(schema_or_query, action, policy) do {_query, schema} = Janus.Utils.resolve_query_and_schema!(schema_or_query) case Policy.rule_for(policy, action, schema) do %{allow: []} -> false _ -> true end end @doc """ Create an `%Ecto.Query{}` that results in only authorized records. Like the `Ecto.Query` API, this function can accept a schema as the first argument or a query, in which case it will compose with that query. If a query is passed, the appropriate schema will be derived from that query's source. scope(MyResource, :read, user) query = from(r in MyResource, where: r.inserted_at > from_ago(1, "day")) scope(query, :read, user) If the query specifies the source as a string, we cannot derive the schema. For example, this will not work: # Raises an ArgumentError query = from(r in "my_resources", where: r.inserted_at > from_ago(1, "day")) scope(query, :read, user) ## Options * `:preload_authorized` - Similar to `Ecto.Query.preload/3`, but only preloads those associated records that are authorized. Note that this requires Ecto v3.9.4 or later and a database that supports lateral joins. See "Preloading authorized associations" for more information. ## Preloading authorized associations The `:preload_authorized` option can be used to preload associated records, but only those that are authorized for the given actor. An additional query can be specified for each preloaded association that will be run as if scoped to its parent row. This can simplify certain queries dramatically. For instance, imagine a user search interface that lists users along with their most recent comment. Naughty comments can be hidden by moderators, but those hidden comments should still be visible if a moderator is searching. Here's how that might be accomplished: iex> last_comment = from(Comment, order_by: [desc: :inserted_at], limit: 1) iex> User ...> |> search(search_params) ...> |> MyPolicy.scope(:read, current_user, ...> preload_authorized: [comments: last_comment] ...> ) ...> |> Repo.all() [%User{comments: [%Comment{}]}, %User{comments: [%Comment{}]}, ...] Some things to note about this example: * The `last_comment` query runs as if scoped to each user's comments. This means that the `:limit` applies to each user's comments, not the entire set of comments. * The comment will be the last inserted comment that is authorized to be read by the `current_user`. Moderators may be able to see hidden comments, while normal users may not. It is also possible to nest authorized preloads. For instance, you could preload comments and their associated post. MyPolicy.scope(User, :read, current_user, preload_authorized: [comments: :post] ) This would load all comments. You could incorporate the `last_comment` query above by specifying it as the first element of a tuple, followed by the list of inner preloads: MyPolicy.scope(User, :read, current_user, preload_authorized: [comments: {last_comment, [:post]}] ) This would load only the latest comment as well as its associated post (assuming it too is authorized to be read by `current_user`). ## Examples iex> MyPolicy.scope(MyResource, :read, actor) %Ecto.Query{} iex> MyPolicy.scope(MyResource, :read, actor) |> Repo.all() [%MyResource{}, ...] iex> MyResource ...> |> MyPolicy.scope(:read, actor) ...> |> order_by(inserted_at: :desc) ...> |> limit(1) ...> |> Repo.one() %MyResource{} iex> MyResource ...> |> MyPolicy.scope(:read, actor, ...> preload_authorized: :other ...> ) ...> |> Repo.all() [%MyResource{other: %OtherResource{}}, ...] """ @spec scope(filterable, Janus.action(), Policy.t(), keyword()) :: Ecto.Query.t() def scope(query_or_schema, action, policy, opts \\ []) do case Policy.run_hooks(:scope, query_or_schema, action, policy) do {:cont, query_or_schema} -> Filter.filter_query(query_or_schema, action, policy, opts) :halt -> Filter.filter_query(query_or_schema, action, %Janus.Policy{}, opts) end end @doc """ Authorizes a loaded resource.
