# ActiveAdminAccessControl

active_admin_access_control is a gem designed to simplify access control management within Active Admin using roles and permissions. It provides an easy way to define roles, assign permissions, and manage user access within the Active Admin panel.

# Features

- Define roles and permissions for users.

- Assign roles to users.

- Manage permissions for each role.

- Access control directly within the Active Admin panel.

## Installation

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

    $ bundle add active_admin_access_control

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

    $ gem install active_admin_access_control

## Usage

    $ rails generate active_admin_access_control:install

This command will set up the necessary files and configurations for access control.

## Running Migrations

Run the migrations to set up the necessary database tables:

    $ rails db:migrate

## Seed Data

In your seed file (db/seeds.rb), comment out the creation of the default Active Admin admin_user:

    # db/seeds.rb

    # AdminUser.create!(email: '[email protected]', password: 'password', password_confirmation: 'password')

Then, run the seed command:

    $ rails db:seed

## Update Admin User File

We need to update admin user files accordingly: 

    # app/admin/admin_users.rb

    ActiveAdmin.register AdminUser do

      permit_params :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :role_id

      index do

        selectable_column

        id_column

        column :email

        column :role

        column :current_sign_in_at

        column :sign_in_count

        column :created_at

        actions

      end

      filter :email

      filter :current_sign_in_at

      filter :sign_in_count

      filter :created_at

      form do |f|

        f.inputs do

          f.input :email

          f.input :password

          f.input :password_confirmation

          f.input :role

        end

        f.actions

      end

    end

 

    # app/models/admin_user.rb

    class AdminUser < ApplicationRecord

      # Include default devise modules. Others available are:

      # :confirmable, :lockable, :timeoutable, :trackable and :omniauthable

      devise :database_authenticatable, 

         :recoverable, :rememberable, :validatable

  

      belongs_to :role

    end

## Accessing Roles and Permissions

Once everything is set up, you can access roles and permissions within the Active Admin panel. Navigate to the appropriate section to manage roles and assign permissions to users.
