如何限制当前登录的用户仅查看属于他们的产品？

Question

If a user is logged in with a specific role - vendor - they should only see items that they have created in their store. They should not be able to see products from other vendors.

So I am trying to do this in my authorization (using Devise, CanCan, Rolify).

I tried this:

user ||= User.new # guest user (not logged in)
if user.has_role? :vendor
  can :dashboard
  can :manage, [Product, Vendor], :vendor_id => user.id
  can :view, [Product], :vendor_id => user.id
end

But....haven't had much luck with that...what am I missing?

Edit 1

I know that I can restrict the products in the controller like:

 @product = current_user.products

But that's not what I am looking for. In this case, a vendor (ie user with role :vendor ) should only be able to see products they added to the store, but they shouldn't be able to see products that other vendors add. However, a buyer (ie a user with role :buyer ) should be able to see all the products from all buyers (as will an admin/etc). A buyer won't be able to see the prices, and some other attributes on some of the products, etc.

How can I achieve all of that?

Answer 1

In the controller you can only find the products belonging to that user.

def show
  @product = @user.products.find(params[:id])
  ...

Same applies to edit and update action. Cancan in this case is not required.
