Could have sense to put role name in a const inside UserVoter?
So in controller we can write $this->isGranted(UserVoter::USER_VIEW, $user);

Yea, I think this is a great idea actually! You won't be able to use the constant in Twig, but you can use it everywhere else, and it's also documented (via being present as a constant).

Thanks again for that awesome tutorial! One question:

I want to have the profile url directly after the main url of the site: site.com/publicUsername

The solution I came up with is:

MainController.php



    /**

     * @Route("/{user}", name="user_profile")

     */

    public function profileAction(Request $request, User $user)

    {
...

But... EXPLOSION!
Now if I try to access site.com/register of course it says that AppBundle\Entity\User object not found instead of using the route for user_register.
I can't find any way to "prioritize" the routes, what would you suggest?
How can I have the profiles directly accessible after the site url? www.site.com/publicUsername

Hey Mike P.!

The only way I know to prioritize urls is to define them first, you would have to put all your routes before


/**
  * @Route("/{user}", name="user_profile")
 */

If you are going that way, would be better to use a YML format, so you can prioritize them easier.

UPDATE

I just found the "ChainRouter", I've never used it, but look's like it might help you achieving your goal

Cheers!

Thanks Diego, I want to share the solution:

Tt seems that "define them first" was the right track, but instead of changing the order of the controller action, I defined it as last entry in the routing.yml like proposed here: https://stackoverflow.com/q...

Is there a way to do a "allowUnlessDenied" test rather than isGranted?

I have a case where I'd like to allow users access unless they are specifically denied by a voter.

MolloKhan SFCASTS Geoff Maddock 8 years ago edited

Hey Geoff Maddock

I think you can just invert the logic when checking for denied access role


// someController.php

public function someAction() {
    // If this is true, throw exception
    if ($this->isGranted('ROLE_ACCESS_DENIED')) {
        throw $this->createAccessDeniedException('You were banned from this action!');
    }
}

Cheers!

If I add a Voter for the user view action, do I see it right that the @SECURITY annotation of the controller action is no longer necessary?
(/**
* @Security("is_granted('ROLE_USER)
*/)

|

weaverryan SFCASTS Mike-Profile 8 years ago edited

Yo Mike P.!

Whether you've created a custom voter or not.. you still need to call either the "is granted" function somewhere: either in the @Security annotation or in your controller (via $this->denyAccessUnlessGranted() or $this->isGranted()). So, it depends on what you mean by "add a Voter for the user view action". Are you calling isGranted (in one of these forms) in that action? If you are not, then the security system (and your voter) are never called.

Cheers!
