tailbone.subscribers

Event Subscribers

tailbone.subscribers.new_request(event)

Identify the current user, and cache their current permissions. Also adds the rattail_config attribute to the request.

A global Rattail config should already be present within the Pyramid application registry’s settings, which would normally be accessed via:

request.registry.settings['rattail_config']

This function merely “promotes” that config object so that it is more directly accessible, a la:

request.rattail_config

Note

This of course assumes that a Rattail config object has in fact already been placed in the application registry settings. If this is not the case, this function will do nothing.

Also, attach some goodies to the request object:

• The currently logged-in user instance (if any), as user.

• is_admin flag indicating whether user has the Administrator role.

• is_root flag indicating whether user is currently elevated to root.

• A shortcut method for permission checking, as has_perm().
