Method Details

expandAllPermission

public static List<String> expandAllPermission(@NonNull
 String permission)

Transforms a given permission into the expanded version with all of the permission types. For example, given a permission ALL_PRODUCT this will return [CREATE_PRODUCT, READ_PRODUCT, UPDATE_PRODUCT, DELETE_PRODUCT]. Note that the result set will not include the given permission which means that if the given permission does not start with ALL_ then an empty list is returned

Parameters:

permission - a permission that starts with ALL_

Returns:

the CRUD-expanded ALL_ permission or an empty list if this is not an ALL_ permission

getPermissionRoot

public static Optional<String> getPermissionRoot(@NonNull
 String permission)

Obtains the 'root' of the permission which is defined as anything that comes after one of the PermissionType.prefixes(). Example: given ALL_PRODUCT this will return PRODUCT and given SOME_PERMISSION this will return an empty optional

Parameters:

permission - a permission

Returns:

the root of permission or an empty Optional if permission does not start with PermissionType.prefixes()

• PermissionType.prefixes()
• getPermissionType(String)

getPermissionType

@Nullable
public static String getPermissionType(@NonNull
 String permission)

Obtains the permission type of the given permission based on PermissionType.prefixes(). This assumes that the type is coded as a prefix in the given permission. If no permission type can be found, this returns the entire given permission unchanged.

Parameters:

permission - a permission to get the prefix for

Returns:

the prefix of the given permission from PermissionType.prefixes() or the permission unchanged if it does not have a prefix
