[Catalyst] Questions with Authentication/Authorization [FINAL SOLUTION]

[Johannes Kilian]

Hello,

just for completeness the "final" solution.

Here my reimplementation of "roles":
------------------------------------------
package 'MyApp::User;

use strict;
use warnings;
use base qw(Catalyst::Authentication::Store::DBIx::Class::User);

sub roles {
    my ( $self ) = shift;
    ## this used to load @wantedroles - but that doesn't seem to be used by the roles plugin, so I dropped it.

    ## shortcut if we have already retrieved them
    if (ref $self->_roles eq 'ARRAY') {
        return(@{$self->_roles});
    }

    my @roles = ();
    if (defined($self->_user)) {
        my $role_relation = $self->config->{'role_relation'};
        my $role_field = $self->config->{'role_field'};

        push @roles,$self->_user->$role_relation->$role_field;
    }
    $self->_roles(\@roles);
    return @{$self->_roles};
}
-----------------------------------------------

Within my configuration I did the following:
-----------------------------------------------
authentication:
            registered:
                store:
                    class: DBIx::Class
                    user_model: BDB::Userinfo
                    user_field: userinfo_kuerzel
                    role_relation: fk_bdbrolle_pk
                    role_field: bdbrolle_name
                    store_user_class: MyApp::User
-----------------------------------------------

Voila - that was it. Everything works as expected (as Thomas predicted)

Thank you for your support
Johannes
