Hyrax Permission Working Group - 2019-12-04

Attendees:

Agenda

  • Review previous meeting
  • Discuss Permissions Matrix, what unanswered questions we have around that
    • Question was raised re: viewer/manager/editor roles on matrix not being filled in. LaRita explained that nothing applies at site level, etc for these roles, and they do have data filled in at some of the lower "levels". 
  • Report back from JP concerning Notch8's prior work
    • We’ve only done some very bare work on the actual permissions in samvera space, but we’ve build role based systems in the past with very fine grained controls. We’d like to apply those design patterns to samvera because at that level rails is rails, though there is some complexity with solr

      The pals phase 1 work was all about elevating the users from being per tenant to being one set and then leaving the permissions as per tenant.

      Pals phase 2 is expected to be straightening out the confusion around groups, roles and permissions between the Hyku code, the hyrax code and the actual user expectations
  • Schedule next meeting
    • discussed Tuesday 12/10 between 1-4 Eastern as a time that suits everyone. Jeremy Friesenwill schedule a meeting.

Action Items

  • JP add notes re: Notch8's prior work
