# Permission Manager SDK for Java
A Spring Boot SDK for integrating permission management into your Java applications. This library provides a robust and flexible way to manage user permissions across different domains and scopes.
## Features
- Annotation-based permission checks
- Programmatic permission management
- Integration with Spring Security
- Support for domain-based permissions
- Scope-based access control
- Multi-domain permission management
- Flexible user ID resolution
## Requirements
- Java 21 or higher
- Spring Boot 3.3.0 or higher
- Spring Cloud 2023.0.2 or higher
## Installation
Add the following dependency to your `pom.xml`:
```xml
de.mumme-it
permission-manager-sdk
0.1.0
```
## Configuration
### 1. Enable the SDK
Add the `@EnablePermissionManager` annotation to your Spring Boot application class:
```java
import de.mummeit.common.annotations.EnablePermissionManager;
@SpringBootApplication
@EnablePermissionManager
public class YourApplication {
public static void main(String[] args) {
SpringApplication.run(YourApplication.class, args);
}
}
```
### 2. Configuration Properties
Add the following properties to your Spring Boot application properties file (`application.yml` or `application.properties`):
```yaml
permission-manager:
base-url: http://your-permission-manager-url # Required: URL of your Permission Manager instance
security:
enabled: true # Optional: Enable/disable security checks (defaults to true)
```
These properties can be configured in any valid Spring Boot configuration source (application.yml, application.properties, environment variables, etc.) following Spring Boot's standard property resolution order.
## Usage
### 1. Annotation-Based Permission Checks
Use the `@RequiresPermission` annotation to protect your methods:
```java
import de.mummeit.pmg.api.annotation.RequiresPermission;
@RestController
@RequestMapping("/api")
public class YourController {
@RequiresPermission(domain = "users", permission = "read", scope = "*")
@GetMapping("/users")
public List getUsers() {
// This method will only execute if the user has the "read" permission in the "users" domain
// The "*" scope means this permission applies to all scopes
return userService.findAll();
}
@RequiresPermission(
domain = "orders",
permission = "update",
scope = "region-#orderId", // Example of prefix-based scope
userIdExpression = "#request.getHeader('X-User-Id')"
)
@PutMapping("/orders/{orderId}")
public Order updateOrder(@PathVariable String orderId, @RequestBody Order order) {
// This method checks permissions with a specific scope and custom user ID resolution
return orderService.update(orderId, order);
}
@RequiresPermission(
domain = "reports",
permission = "view",
scope = "region-*" // Example of wildcard scope matching all regions
)
@GetMapping("/reports")
public List getReports() {
// This method allows access to users with permission for any region
return reportService.findAll();
}
}
```
### 2. Multiple Permission Requirements
You can require multiple permissions using repeated annotations:
```java
@RequiresPermission(domain = "users", permission = "read")
@RequiresPermission(domain = "orders", permission = "write")
public void methodRequiringMultiplePermissions() {
// This method requires both permissions
}
```
### 3. Programmatic Permission Management
Use the `PermissionManager` class to manage permissions programmatically:
```java
@Service
@RequiredArgsConstructor
public class YourService {
private final PermissionManager permissionManager;
public void grantUserAccess(String userId) {
// Grant access to all user-related operations
permissionManager.grantAccess(
userId,
"users",
List.of("read", "write"),
List.of("user_role"),
"*" // Wildcard scope - applies to all scopes
);
// Grant access to specific region
permissionManager.grantAccess(
userId,
"reports",
List.of("view"),
List.of("reporter"),
"region-europe" // Specific region scope
);
// Grant access to all regions
permissionManager.grantAccess(
userId,
"reports",
List.of("view"),
List.of("global_reporter"),
"region-*" // Wildcard scope - applies to all regions
);
}
public boolean checkAccess(String userId) {
// Check access for all scopes
boolean hasGlobalAccess = permissionManager.hasAccess(
userId,
"users",
"read",
"*"
);
// Check access for specific region
boolean hasRegionAccess = permissionManager.hasAccess(
userId,
"reports",
"view",
"region-europe"
);
return hasGlobalAccess && hasRegionAccess;
}
public void revokeAccess(String userId) {
permissionManager.revokeAccess(
userId,
"users",
List.of("read", "write"),
List.of("user_role"),
"global"
);
}
}
```
### 4. Multi-Domain Permission Management
```java
List permits = List.of(
new Permit("users", List.of("read"), List.of("user_role")),
new Permit("orders", List.of("write"), List.of("order_manager"))
);
permissionManager.grantMultiDomainAccess(userId, permits, "global");
```
### 5. User Permission Queries
```java
List userPermissions = permissionManager.findUserPermissions(userId, "global");
```
## Exception Handling
The SDK throws the following exceptions:
- `AccessDeniedException`: When a permission check fails
- `InvalidPermissionRequestException`: When invalid parameters are provided
- `IntegrationFailedException`: When integration operations fail
Example exception handler:
```java
@ControllerAdvice
public class PermissionExceptionHandler {
@ExceptionHandler(AccessDeniedException.class)
public ResponseEntity handleAccessDenied(AccessDeniedException e) {
return ResponseEntity.status(HttpStatus.FORBIDDEN)
.body("Access denied: " + e.getMessage());
}
}
```
## Best Practices
1. **Scope Usage**:
- Use scopes to implement fine-grained access control at the resource level
- Leverage wildcards (`*`) for global access
- Use prefix-based wildcards (e.g., `region-*`) for category-wide access
- Be consistent with scope naming conventions (e.g., `region-europe`, `region-asia`)
2. **User ID Resolution**: Customize user ID resolution using SpEL expressions when needed.
3. **Error Handling**: Always handle permission-related exceptions appropriately.
4. **Permission Granularity**: Design permissions with appropriate granularity for your use case.
5. **Security Context**: Ensure proper security context is available when using default user ID resolution.
