Fix: for frontend pages with Server Error 500 when accessed by guests or users with basic permissions

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Improved permission API consistency by adding a placeholder to the basic permission component that explicitly documents that basic permissions do not assign any user groups.
    • This is a non‑operative change and does not alter existing permission behavior or control flow.

✏️ Tip: You can customize this high-level summary in your review settings.

Poem

🐰 A tiny method, humble and neat,
Returns empty rows with a gentle beat.
No groups to find, no logic to tug,
Just a quiet promise from a busy little bug. 🥕

279-289: Good fix for the Server Error 500.

The addition of getUserGroups to BasicPermission correctly addresses the 500 error by providing the missing method. The empty array return is appropriate since basic permissions don't support user groups.

The return value difference from MediumPermission (which includes [-1]) is intentional. Production code handles this correctly by either guarding calls (e.g., SearchResultSet checks if ('basic' !== permLevel) before calling) or explicitly checking the permission type (e.g., CurrentUser checks instanceof MediumPermission and defaults to [-1] otherwise).

The static analysis warning about the unused $userId parameter is expected and acceptable for this stub implementation.

278-288: Implementation looks correct for BasicPermission.

The method correctly returns an empty array since BasicPermission does not support group-based permissions, only user-level permissions. This implementation aligns with the "basic" permission model and likely resolves the HTTP 500 error by providing the required interface method.

Note: The unused parameter warning from PHPMD is a false positive—$userId is required by the PermissionInterface contract, as evidenced by the MediumPermission implementation.
