Please forgive for asking, i have been working on my websites login/registration pages for some time and finally have both working seemingly flawlessly, my next task is access control so i can do some work on my forum without the need to load my SSH and make database changes.
My Composer.JSON for a list of packages i have already
"require": {
"php": "^7.1.3",
"ext-iconv": "*",
"doctrine/doctrine-migrations-bundle": "^2.0",
"knplabs/knp-markdown-bundle": "^1.7",
"sensio/framework-extra-bundle": "^5.1",
"symfony/asset": "^4.0",
"symfony/console": "^4.0",
"symfony/flex": "^1.1",
"symfony/form": "^4.0",
"symfony/framework-bundle": "^4.0",
"symfony/maker-bundle": "^1.1",
"symfony/orm-pack": "^1.0",
"symfony/profiler-pack": "^1.0",
"symfony/security-bundle": "^4.0",
"symfony/translation": "^4.0",
"symfony/twig-bundle": "^4.0",
"symfony/validator": "^4.0",
"symfony/yaml": "^4.0"
},
"require-dev": {
"sensiolabs/security-checker": "^4.1",
"symfony/dotenv": "^4.0",
"symfony/web-server-bundle": "^4.0"
The problem i have is that my login form auto outputs 'ROLE_USER' when the database returns an empty array, however i am unclear on how i can add an object to the database JSON as i need the 'ROLE_ADMIN' string.
I understand that i could add an admin user to memory but i would like to depend solely on the database having something typed out in a doc on my root server dosent feel right to me (for some reason)
I have checked the symfony docs and looked around on here and not found anything that jumps out at me as helpful.
I would like to grant a user (me) 'ROLE_ADMIN' while all other users still get the 'ROLE_USER' that 'getRoles()' returns. my firewall already has hierarchy set up Admin inherits user so i shouldnt have trouble locking myself out of other pages.
i already have a few counts of access control implemented as shown bellow
../config/packages/security.yaml
...
access_control:
- { path: ^/admin, roles: ROLE_ADMIN }
- { path: ^/profile, roles: ROLE_USER }
And
../templates/forum/index.html.twig
...
{% if is_granted('ROLE_ADMIN') %}
<li><a href="{{ path('page_admin') }}">Admin</a></li>
{% endif %}
...
Here i will drop all my controller/entity info for you guys -*all of my registration/authentication files are generated with maker-bundle
