Flask-Login-Role

A super light-weight alternative to Flask-User or Flask-Security that adds role requirements for views to Flask-Login.

Features

role_required

This decorator requires that a user be authenticated and have their role attribute set to one of the roles specified. If the current user is authenticated but does not have their role in the specified roles, the user is sent to the LoginManager.no_role callback.

no_role

This method of LoginManager requires that you provide a no_role_view attribute to LoginManager. no_role_view can be provided where you provide a login_view for unauthorized users.

Installation

pip install Flask-Login-Role@git+https://github.com/glyzinieh/flask-login-role

Usage

See examples/app.py for an example of proper set up.

• User model will need a role attribute with the required permissions.
• from flask_login_role import no_role, and add a no_role method to LoginManager
• Give LoginManager a no_role_view attribute that is a string that indicates which view function to redirect authorized but unprivileged users to.
• from flask_login_role import role_required wherever routes are defined, and decorate privilleged routes.
