# `use-permission` ## Purpose `usePermission()` exposes a bitwise permission-check API over the current `user.roles` bitmask. The package ships a closed registry of 16 named permission flags (`Permissions` enum) covering user / post / admin / system / moderation / settings axes. The hook accepts either a `Permission` string key (for ergonomics in JSX) or a raw numeric bit (for composition), tests `(user.roles & bit) === bit` for each query, and returns helpers for the three common patterns: single flag, any-of, all-of. With no authenticated user every predicate returns `false`, mirroring the strictest safe default. `getPermissionNames()` projects the bitmask onto the human-readable flag names so consumers can render checklists without re-implementing the mapping. ## Features - 16-flag closed `Permissions` enum keyed by name with bit values. - Accepts string keys or numeric bits at every call site. - `hasPermission`, `hasAnyPermission`, `hasAllPermissions`, `getPermissionNames`, `userRoles` fields. - Unauthenticated users get safe-default `false` / `[]` returns. ## Usage: Basic ```tsx import { usePermission } from "@suaveplan/react-auth"; function DeleteButton() { const { hasPermission } = usePermission(); if (!hasPermission("POST_DELETE")) return null; return ; } ``` ## Usage: Advanced Compose checks against numeric bits and named flags together; render the user's effective permission list: ```tsx import { Permissions, usePermission } from "@suaveplan/react-auth"; function AuditBadge() { const { hasAllPermissions, getPermissionNames } = usePermission(); const moderator = hasAllPermissions([ Permissions.MODERATE_USERS, Permissions.MODERATE_CONTENT, 1 << 6, // ADMIN_READ — same bit, asserted by number ]); return (
{moderator ? "Moderator" : "Member"}
); } ``` ## API Reference - `const Permissions` — closed map of `{ NAME: bit }` for 16 flags. - `type Permission = keyof typeof Permissions`. - `interface UsePermissionResult` — `{ hasPermission(p): boolean; hasAnyPermission(ps): boolean; hasAllPermissions(ps): boolean; getPermissionNames(): string[]; userRoles: number }`. - `function usePermission(): UsePermissionResult`. ## Implementation Notes The `Permissions` map is `as const` so each key narrows to its literal numeric bit. The hook reads `user` from `useAuth()`, which means it shares the same context-rebind semantics as the rest of the auth surface — a `signIn` that changes `user.roles` propagates to every consumer on the next render without manual re-subscription. `getPermissionNames` iterates `Object.entries(Permissions)` and is intentionally O(n) in flag count (16) — short and constant. `userRoles` is exposed as a fallback `0` when unauthenticated, so callers performing custom bit checks do not need a separate `user === null` guard.
