pas.plugins.memberpropertytogroup

Plone PAS plugin to create virtual groups based on member properties.

The main use case are organisations that have an existing LDAP infrastructure that organises groups through member properties instead of LDAP groups.

If you have a vanilla Plone site without LDAP, you most likely do not need this plugin.

Features

• Create virtual groups based on member properties
• Create multiple virtual groups based member properties
• Create virtual group based on a member properties prefix
• Grant local permissions based on virtual member properties groups

Installation

Add pas.plugins.memberpropertytogroup to the Plone installation using pip:

pip install pas.plugins.memberpropertytogroup

or add it as a dependency on your package's setup.py

    install_requires = [
        "pas.plugins.memberpropertytogroup",
        "Plone",
        "plone.restapi",
        "setuptools",
    ],

Start Plone and activate the plugin in the addons control-panel.
