Codeigniter ACL with automatic fetch controllers / methods and insert into database for dynamic process
ACL stands for access control list. It is a way to restrict users access to features of your site depending on their permissions. To make it easier to add permissions for users when changes are made to your site, permissions are connected to the role rather than user. User can have multiple roles.
There is also a guest role which is activated on all users and guest user also Where guest user action permission will be allowed to access that guest page
- Automatically fetch controller and methods name and insert it into table for you.
** You have to only the assign controller and methods permission to roles and all sets**
Controller and method will automatically validate by acl hook and if user has permission to access that page then it will give the true else it will redirect it to unauthorized page
This library uses the active record classes. So make sure _$active_record_ is set to _TRUE_ in your /application/config/database.php file.
Database You are able to have your table and fields named however you like. Those modifications will need to be reflected in the AclModel.php, AcosModel.php, UsersModel.php, RolesModel.php, UserRolesModel.php files in model folder.
