A skeleton for creating applications with [CakePHP](http://cakephp.org) 3.x. The skeleton has been preloaded with the [Acl](https://github.com/cakephp/acl), [AclManager](https://github.com/ivanamat/cakephp3-aclmanager) plugins. Manages groups, roles, users and ACL.

Loaded plugins
--------------

[](#loaded-plugins)

- The framework source code can be found here: [cakephp/cakephp](https://github.com/cakephp/cakephp).
- The Acl plugin source code can be found here: [cakephp/acl](https://github.com/cakephp/acl).
- The AclManager plugin source code can be found here: [ivanamat/cakephp3-aclmanager](https://github.com/ivanamat/cakephp3-aclmanager).

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

1. Download [Composer](http://getcomposer.org/doc/00-intro.md).
2. Run `php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist pedrazadixon/cakeapp app_name`.

If Composer is installed globally, run

```
composer self-update && composer create-project --prefer-dist pedrazadixon/cakeapp app_name
```

You should now be able to visit the path to where you installed the app and see the setup traffic lights.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

### MySQL

[](#mysql)

Import the `config/schema/cakephp.sql` file to your database.

### APP

[](#app)

Read and edit `config/app.php` and setup the 'Datasources' and any other configuration relevant for your application.

Uncomment `$this->Auth->allow();` from initialize function on `AppController`. This lets you create Groups, Roles and Users.

```
public function initialize() {
    ...

    // Only for ACL setup
    $this->Auth->allow();
}

```

Uncumment `return true;` from isAuthorized function on `AppController`. This allows you to access the Acl Manager plugin.

```
public function isAuthorized($user) {

    // Only for ACL setup
    return true;

    ...
}

```

Create the first group, the main role and the first user.
---------------------------------------------------------

[](#create-the-first-group-the-main-role-and-the-first-user)

- Now go to the Groups area and create your first group.
- Access Roles area and create a new role for the group you created. It is recommended to create the first role with the name 'Root'. The role you have created with id 1 will always have all permissions.
- Create a user with the group and role you just created.
- Log in on `/Users/login` as the user created, go to `/AclManager` and click on `Restore to default` to create ACOs and AROs automatically.

Comment the uncommented
-----------------------

[](#comment-the-uncommented)

Comment `$this->Auth->allow();` from initialize function and `return true;` from isAuthorized function on `AppController`.

```
public function initialize() {
    ...

    // Only for ACL setup
    // $this->Auth->allow();
}

public function isAuthorized($user) {
    // Only for ACL setup
    // return true;

    ...
}

```

Enjoy!
------

[](#enjoy)

Now you can start customizing your permissions and Develop your app. Do not forget to update the ACOs when creating new functions.
