Rails authorization plugins
- by jacklin
We are evaluating plugins for Authorization in Rails. The two at the top of our list are
cancan and declarative_authorization.
I would like to get some feedback from anyone currently using either of these plugins.
The problem we are going to face with any authorization plugin is that we have a
database per customer model and will need to modify the plugin to work within that
model. Because of this fact I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has had to tweak the
plugins at all as well.
I'm just starting to look around at the code. It seems like cancan might be a little easier to customize.
Any thoughts?
