Seems like I found a better keyword argument than fallback_to_model. For the following backends setting:
AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = ( 'django.contrib.auth.backends.ModelBackend', 'guardian.backends.ObjectBackend', 'roles.backends.RoleBackend', ) And the ways to check: user.has_perm('foo.change_bar', obj) # default: check all, model checker expected to NOT disown her child user.has_perm('foo.change_bar', obj, backends=('object', 'role', )) # just check backends specified; 'role' for *.RoleBackend Advantages: - One will not have to use package specific API for checking just the object permissions, for example. - Cleaner and generic: allows backends re-use each other. For example, I am writing a RoleBackend and can easily make calls to model or object permission backends, in order not to reinvent the wheel. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
