What is the best way to create permissions for use in authorization if those permissions aren't related to any specific model? I can't seem to find anything to tell me how to do this. In fact, it looks like even the database tables for permissions assume they are associated with a model (auth_permission table has a content_type_id and the content_type table refers to a model).
For example. I'd like to restrict certain buttons on a form or certain links to particular users. Also, I want to have my own page for a superuser to see and enable/disable these permissions for any user, so my solution needs to take that into account as well. Should I create my own Permission model with a ForeignKey to the built- in User model? Any help on the best way to do this would be appreciated. I'm just getting started converted my application to django and I'm stuck on this. thanks, mike --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
