scottkf / ability-js Goto Github PK

Currently ability supports only redirects for regular http requests.
ajax support could be added by adding check for req.xhr and sending a 403 before hard redirect.

would be great to add support for target wildcards
e.g. 'tweets/*': ['read'] would match all urls like:
/tweets
/tweets.:format?
/tweets/new
/tweets/:id
/tweets/:id/edit
/tweets/:id.:format?

maybe i'm missing something and this might already be possible.

Hi,
Is the use of the able.to helper to check if the user has access on a certain target or to assign access to a target.

From the docs, i expected it to check access, but it seems it assigns.

I have the fix in place if this is a bug, or else think another helper to check access will be useful.
