cbSecurity Model

This object is used to provide you with human, fluent and explicit security authorizations and contexts.

Explicit Authorizations
The cbSecurity model is a specialized service that will allow you to do explicit authorizations in any layer of your ColdBox application.
There will be times where you will need authorization checks outside of the incoming request rules or the handler annotations. This can be from within interceptors, models, layouts or even views. For this, we have provided the cbSecurity model so you can do explicit authorization checks anywhere you like.
cbSecurity Model
You can inject our model or you can use our handy cbsecure() mixin (handlers/layouts/views) and then call the appropriate security functions:
1
// Mixin: Handlers/Layouts/Views
2
cbsecure()
3
​
4
// Injection
5
property name="cbSecurity" inject="@cbSecurity"
Copied!
All security methods will call the application's configured Authentication Service to retrieve the currently logged in user. If the user is not logged in an immediate NoUserLoggedIn exception will be thrown by all methods.
You can now discover our sections for securing using cbSecurity
