Pundit scopes
Hi, i have no idea how to choose best way. There are three models User, Department and Task. Each user assigned to one department (belongs to). Department has many tasks. How to write a policy or something to do without using Pundit, when user can see only tasks from assigned department?
Dmitry,
Without Pundit, you can scope your queries in the controller with @tasks = current_user.department.tasks
so that it always accesses them through the User.
With Pundit, you can setup a scope to reference the Department on the user:
class TaskPolicy < ApplicationPolicy
class Scope < TaskPolicy
attr_reader :user, :scope
def initialize(user, scope)
@user = user
@scope = scope
end
def resolve
@scope.where(department_id: @user.department_id)
end
end
end
And use this by saying @tasks = policy_scope(Task)
