Permissions are an important part to any application. Even in a RESTful API you'll need to check that the API key has permission to perform the action requested. In some cases it makes sense to handle authentication in a middleware, but in other cases, it's more helpful to have a standard set of permissions.

This library follows a CRUD based permissions systems. See [basic example](#basic-example) for example on how this is accomplished.

Basic Example
-------------

[](#basic-example)

Let's assume you have a feature in your application that checks if a user is logged in. You can create a permissions object like this:

```
// index.php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// some code

// then you probably have something that tells you who the current role is of the person
// likely you have something where you pull the current role
// from a session variable which defines this
// after someone logs in, otherwise they will have a 'guest' or 'public' role.
$current_role = 'admin';

// setup permissions
$permission = new \flight\Permission($current_role);
$permission->defineRule('loggedIn', function($current_role) {
	return $current_role !== 'guest';
});

// You'll probably want to persist this object in Flight somewhere
Flight::set('permission', $permission);
```

Then in a controller somewhere, you might have something like this.

```
