Generic way to check user permissions

[matthias-hiemer]

Hi there!

I'm new to Ninja Extra and was wondering how I can check for permissions in a generic way.
Checking a single permission class of type BasePermission works fine to protect an endpoint.

For Example:

    class HasDocumentPermission(permissions.BasePermission):

        def has_permission(self, request, controller) -> bool:
            user = request.user or request.auth
            return user and user.has_perm("api.view_document")

    @http_get(
        "",
        response={200: List[DocumentSchema], 404: Message},
        permissions=[HasDocumentPermission],
        by_alias=True,
    )
    @requires()
    def get_documents(self):
        # Gets documents

But: We have multiple permissions in multiple groups in our project. So, creating boilerplate permission classes doesn't seem to be the most elegant way.
Can I do this somehow by using a BasePermission class, that takes a permission as parameter? Or do I need another concept, like another decorator?

Thanks and best regards
Matthias

Hi @matthias-hiemer it seems like in the latest release, you are now able to use the BasePermission class. Hope it will help you.
