    1 = Trac Permissions
    2 [[TracGuideToc]]
    3 
    4 Trac uses a simple, case sensitive, permission system to control what users can and can't access.
    5 
    6 Permission privileges are managed using the [TracAdmin trac-admin] tool or the ''General / Permissions'' panel in the ''Admin'' tab of the web interface.
    7 
    8 In addition to the default permission policy described in this page, it is possible to activate additional permission policies by enabling plugins and listing them in the `[trac] permission_policies` configuration entry in the TracIni. See TracFineGrainedPermissions for more details.
    9 
    10 Non-authenticated users accessing the system are assigned the name "anonymous". Assign permissions to the "anonymous" user to set privileges for anonymous/guest users. The parts of Trac that a user does not have the privileges for will not be displayed in the navigation.
    11 In addition to these privileges, users can be granted additional individual rights in effect when authenticated and logged into the system. All logged in users belong to the virtual group "authenticated", which inherits permissions from "anonymous".
    12 
    13 == Graphical Admin Tab
    14 
    15 To access this tab, a user must have one of the following permissions: `TRAC_ADMIN`, `PERMISSION_ADMIN`, `PERMISSION_GRANT`, `PERMISSION_REVOKE`. The permissions can be granted using the `trac-admin` command (more on `trac-admin` below):
    16 {{{
    17   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob TRAC_ADMIN
    18 }}}
    19 
    20 Then, the user `bob` will be able to see the Admin tab, and can then access the permissions menu. This menu will allow you to perform all the following actions, but from the browser without requiring root access to the server (just the correct permissions for your user account). '''Use at least one lowercase character in user names, as all-uppercase names are reserved for permissions.'''

    25 
    26 An easy way to quickly secure a new Trac install is to run the above command on the anonymous user, install the [http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/AccountManagerPlugin AccountManagerPlugin], create a new admin account graphically and then remove the TRAC_ADMIN permission from the anonymous user.
    27 
    28 From the graphical admin tab, users with `PERMISSION_GRANT` will only be allowed to grant permissions that they possess, and users with `PERMISSION_REVOKE` will only be allowed to revoke permissions that they possess. For example, a user cannot grant `MILESTONE_ADMIN` unless they have `PERMISSION_GRANT` and `MILESTONE_ADMIN`, and they cannot revoke `MILESTONE_ADMIN` unless they have `PERMISSION_REVOKE` and `MILESTONE_ADMIN`. `PERMISSION_ADMIN` just grants the user both `PERMISSION_GRANT` and `PERMISSION_REVOKE`, and users with `TRAC_ADMIN` can grant or revoke any permission.
    29 
    30 == Available Privileges
    31 
    32 To enable all privileges for a user, use the `TRAC_ADMIN` permission. Having `TRAC_ADMIN` is like being `root` on a *NIX system: it will allow you to perform any operation.
    33 
    34 Otherwise, individual privileges can be assigned to users for the various different functional areas of Trac ('''note that the privilege names are case-sensitive'''):

    98 
    99 == Creating New Privileges
    100 
    101 To create custom permissions, for example to be used in a custom workflow, enable the optional [trac:ExtraPermissionsProvider tracopt.perm.config_perm_provider.ExtraPermissionsProvider] component in the "Plugins" admin panel, and add the desired permissions to the `[extra-permissions]` section in your [wiki:TracIni#extra-permissions-section trac.ini]. For more information, please refer to the documentation  on the [wiki:TracIni#extra-permissions-section TracIni] page after enabling the component.
    102 
    103 == Granting Privileges
    104 
    105 You grant privileges to users using [wiki:TracAdmin trac-admin]. The current set of privileges can be listed with the following command:
    106 {{{
    107   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission list
    108 }}}
    109 
    110 This command will allow the user ''bob'' to delete reports:
    111 {{{
    112   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob REPORT_DELETE
    113 }}}
    114 
    115 The `permission add` command also accepts multiple privilege names:
    116 {{{
    117   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob REPORT_DELETE WIKI_CREATE
    118 }}}
    119 
    120 Or add all privileges:
    121 {{{
    122   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob TRAC_ADMIN
    123 }}}
    124 
    125 == Permission Groups
    126 
    127 There are two built-in groups, "authenticated" and "anonymous".
    128 Any user who has not logged in is automatically in the "anonymous" group.
    129 Any user who has logged in is also in the "authenticated" group.
    130 The "authenticated" group inherits permissions from the "anonymous" group.
    131 For example, if the "anonymous" group has permission WIKI_MODIFY,
    132 it is not necessary to add the WIKI_MODIFY permission to the "authenticated" group as well.
    133 
    134 Custom groups may be defined that inherit permissions from the two built-in groups.
    135 
    136 Permissions can be grouped together to form roles such as ''developer'', ''admin'', etc.
    137 {{{
    138   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer WIKI_ADMIN
    139   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer REPORT_ADMIN
    140   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add developer TICKET_MODIFY
    141   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob developer
    142   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add john developer
    143 }}}
    144 
    145 Group membership can be checked by doing a {{{permission list}}} with no further arguments; the resulting output will include group memberships. '''Use at least one lowercase character in group names, as all-uppercase names are reserved for permissions'''.
    146 
    147 == Adding a New Group and Permissions
    148 Permission groups can be created by assigning a user to a group you wish to create, then assign permissions to that group.
    149 
    150 The following will add ''bob'' to the new group called ''beta_testers'' and then will assign WIKI_ADMIN permissions to that group. (Thus, ''bob'' will inherit the WIKI_ADMIN permission)
    151 {{{
    152    $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add bob beta_testers
    153    $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission add beta_testers WIKI_ADMIN
    154 
    155 }}}
    156 
    157 == Removing Permissions
    158 
    159 Permissions can be removed using the 'remove' command. For example:
    160 
    161 This command will prevent the user ''bob'' from deleting reports:
    162 {{{
    163   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission remove bob REPORT_DELETE
    164 }}}
    165 
    166 Just like `permission add`, this command accepts multiple privilege names.
    167 
    168 You can also remove all privileges for a specific user:
    169 {{{
    170   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission remove bob '*'
    171 }}}
    172 
    173 Or one privilege for all users:
    174 {{{
    175   $ trac-admin /path/to/projenv permission remove '*' REPORT_ADMIN
    176 }}}
    177 
    178 == Default Permissions
    179 
    180 By default on a new Trac installation, the `anonymous` user will have ''view'' access to everything in Trac, but will not be able to create or modify anything.
    181 On the other hand, the `authenticated` users will have the permissions to ''create and modify tickets and wiki pages''.
    182 
    183 '''anonymous'''
    184 {{{
    185  BROWSER_VIEW
    186  CHANGESET_VIEW
    187  FILE_VIEW
    188  LOG_VIEW
    189  MILESTONE_VIEW
    190  REPORT_SQL_VIEW
    191  REPORT_VIEW
    192  ROADMAP_VIEW
    193  SEARCH_VIEW
    194  TICKET_VIEW
    195  TIMELINE_VIEW
    196  WIKI_VIEW
    197 }}}
    198 
    199 '''authenticated'''
    200 {{{
    201  TICKET_CREATE
    202  TICKET_MODIFY
    203  WIKI_CREATE
    204  WIKI_MODIFY 
    205 }}}
