I know you can have permissions on individual models that control which users have access to them, but I need something for my apps.
Ex. If a user logs in, does he have access to the store_app? The forum_app? etc. I have a solution that looks something like this: models.py: class MyUser(AbstractUser): for app_short_name, app_long_name in settings.APP_CHOICES: add_field = "allow_{} = ".format(app_short_name) add_field += "models.BooleanField(verbose_name='Allow Access to {}', default=False, null=False)".format(app_long_name) exec(add_field) settings.py: APP_CHOICES = [ ('store_app', 'Store App'), ('forum_app', 'Forum App'), ] It works, but I'm not sure if it's bad practice to have dynamically generated fields in models.py like this, or if there's a better/simpler way to do this. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
