[Cartoweb-users] control edit layers by role

[Oliver Christen]

Hi

you need to extend the edit plugin to handle the role when displaying the 
list of editable layers

the list of editable layer is generated in ClientEdit.php function 
renderForm()
see the loop foreach($layersInit->getLayers() as $layer) { ... }

to know if a user has a role:
$hasRole = SecurityManager::getInstance()->hasRole($roles); where $roles is 
an existing role defined in auth.ini

regards
Oliver
