Two topics shall be mentioned here explicitly:
Hitobito provides a powerful meta-model to describe group structures. Groups are always of a specific type and are arranged in a tree. Each group type may have several different role types.
This core part of Hitobito does not provide any specific group or role types. They have to be defined in a separate plugin, specific to your organization structure.
An example group type definition might look like this:
class Group::Layer < Group
self.layer = true
children Group::Layer, Group::Board, Group::Basic
class Role < Leader
self.permissions = [:layer_full, :contact_data]
end
class Member < Role
self.permissions = [:group_read]
end
roles Leader, Member
end
A group type always inherits from the class Group.
It may be a layer, which defines a set of groups that are in a common permission range.
All subgroups of a layer group belong to this range unless a subgroup is a layer itself.
Then all possible child types of the group are listed. When creating subgroups, only these types will be allowed. As shown, types may be organized recursively.
For the ease of maintainability, role types may be defined directly in the group type. Each role type has a set of permissions. They are general indications of what and where. All specific abilities of a user are derived from the role permissions she has in her different groups.
See Gruppen- und Rollentypen for more details and hitobito_generic for a complete example group structure.
Hitobito is built on the plugin framework Wagons. With Wagons, arbitrary features and extensions may be created for Hitobito. As mentioned above, as there are no group types coming from Hitobito itself, at least one wagon is required to define group types in order to use Hitobito.
See Wagon Guidelines or Wagons for more information on wagons and its available rake tasks.
