Views Entity Operation Access

Provides a Views access control plugin checking if the user can perform an operation on an entity by adding an appropriate entity parameter upconverter for Drupal 8 routes.

Instructions

• Create a page view
• For the path, ensure there is an entity type parameter. The parameter is usually the machine name of the entity type in the location of the ID.
  For example:
  • user/9/my_comments = user/%user/my_comments
  • node/23/related = node/%node/related
• Set Access plugin to 'Entity Operation'
• Set Access options:
  • Parameter name: the name used in place of the entity ID. For '%user', set to 'user' etc
  • Entity type: the entity type to match to the entity ID.
  • Operation to check: view, edit, update, delete, other etc. Will check whether the current user has permission to execute this operation on the entity in the path.
