     1== Trac Permissions ==
     2[[TracGuideToc]]
     3
     4Trac uses a simple but flexible permission system to control what users can and can't access.
     5
     6Permission privilegies are managed using the [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin] tool.
     7
     8Regular visitors, non-authenticated users, accessing the system are assigned the default
     9role (''user'') named {{{anonymous}}}.
     10Assign permissions to the {{{anonymous}}} user to set privilegies for non-authenticated/guest users.
     11
     12In addition to these privileges users can be granted additional individual
     13rights in effect when authenticated and logged into the system.
     14
     15=== Available privileges ===
     16
     17 * {{{TRAC_ADMIN}}}
     18 * {{{LOG_VIEW}}}
     19 * {{{FILE_VIEW}}}
     20 * {{{CHANGESET_VIEW}}}
     21 * {{{BROWSER_VIEW}}}
     22 * {{{TICKET_VIEW, TICKET_CREATE, TICKET_MODIFY, TICKET_ADMIN}}}
     23 * {{{REPORT_VIEW, REPORT_CREATE, REPORT_MODIFY, REPORT_DELETE, REPORT_ADMIN, REPORT_SQL_VIEW}}}
     24 * {{{WIKI_VIEW, WIKI_CREATE, WIKI_MODIFY, WIKI_DELETE, WIKI_ADMIN}}}
     25 * {{{MILESTONE_VIEW, MILESTONE_CREATE, MILESTONE_MODIFY, MILESTONE_DELETE}}}
     26 * {{{ROADMAP_VIEW, ROADMAP_ADMIN}}}
     27 * {{{TIMELINE_VIEW}}}
     28 * {{{SEARCH_VIEW}}}
     29 * {{{CONFIG_VIEW}}}
     30
     31The {{{something_ADMIN}}} privileges are just shortcuts that can be used to grant a user all the ''something'' privileges in one go. Having {{{TRAC_ADMIN}}}
     32is like being {{{root}}} on a *NIX system, it will let you do anything you want.
     33
     34=== Granting privileges ===
     35
     36Currently the only way to grant privileges to users is by using the
     37{{{trac-admin}}} script. The current set of privileges can be listed
     38with the following command:
     39
     40{{{
     41  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission list
     42}}}
     43
     44This command will let the user ''bob'' delete reports:
     45
     46{{{
     47  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob REPORT_DELETE
     48}}}
     49
     50=== Permission groups ===
     51
     52Permissions can be grouped together to form roles such as
     53''developer'', ''admin'', etc.
     54
     55{{{
     56  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer WIKI_ADMIN
     57  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer REPORT_ADMIN
     58  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer TICKET_MODIFY
     59  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob developer
     60  $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add john developer
     61}}}
     62
     63=== Default permissions ===
     64
     65Granting privileges to the special user ''anonymous'' can be used to control
     66what an anonymous user can do before they have logged in.
     67
     68In the same way, privileges granted to the special user ''authenticated'' will apply to any authenticated (logged in) user.
