Hi all,
I have some issues with django permissions model. Please bear in mind
that I have just started learning django so feel free to correct me if
I'm wrong :)
First of all it was hard to find how one can add a custom permission
to list of permissions of a model instance.
I ended up with a code like this:
from ... import model
...
c_type = ContentType.objects.get_for_model(model)
p = Permission.objects.get(codename=name, content_type=c_type)
user.user_permissions.add(p)
It does look like rather generic task to me, and If that is the right
way of doing that, it could be implemented as a helper function in
django, alongside with has_perm(), get_all_permissions() and others.
Or is there something like that already?
Second thing which I have problems understanding is a naming
convention for .has_perm() function parameter. Why for god's sake it
omits model name, including only package name and permission name?
Here is the quote from documentation:
has_perm(perm)
Returns True if the user has the specified permission, where
perm is
in the format "package.codename"
It's easy to imagine a situation when one has got several custom
permissions with same name for different models within same package.
Is this going to cause some sort of conflict or wrong name resolution
when using has_perm()?
