react-permissible

Making the permission management for React components easier.

react-permissible is a React Component allowing to:

• manage visibility of particular components depending on users permissions
• replace particular component when the user isn't permitted to see it
• manage accessability to particular view depending on users permissions
• fire a callback when the user isn't allowed to go to access the component/route

Why?

Currently there's no permission management in React. The existing components are either over-engineered (full ACL support etc.), or limited to role-based management. react-permissible is simple at its core and solves only one problem. Access the Component if the permissions match, do something otherwise.

Installation

npm i @brainhubeu/react-permissible

Usage

import { PermissibleRender } from '@brainhubeu/react-permissible';

...

render() {
  return (
    <PermissibleRender
      userPermissions={permissions}
      requiredPermissions={requiredPermissions}
    >
      <RestrictedComponent/>
    </PermissibleRender>
  );
}

Where:

• userPermissions is an array of permissions set for current user
• requiredPermissions is an array of required permissions

More detailed documentation with several use cases covered is available here.

Running tests

npm test

Roadmap

• Passing a callback function as a prop for PermissibleRender component
