package perms /* A really useful page to be aware of when looking at ACLs is https://hashicorp.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ICU/pages/866976600/API+Actions+and+Permissions speaking of which: TODO: put that chart in public docs. Anyways, from that page you can see that there are really only a few patterns of ACLs that are ever allowed; see the Allowed function for a description along with the code. This makes it actually quite simple to perform the ACL checking. Much of ACL construction is thus synthesizing something reasonable from a set of Grants. */ import ( "strings" "github.com/hashicorp/boundary/internal/types/action" "github.com/hashicorp/boundary/internal/types/resource" ) const AnonymousUserId = "u_anon" // ACL provides an entry point into the permissions engine for determining if an // action is allowed on a resource based on a principal's (user or group) grants. type ACL struct { scopeMap map[string][]Grant } // ACLResults provides a type for the permission's engine results so that we can // pass more detailed information along in the future if we want.
