Zend_Acl Screencast available
Saturday, August 9th, 2008As announced in my last blog post, I’m publishing today the second part of my Zend_Auth/Zend_Acl screencast series covering the usage of Zend_Acl. In this tutorial I’m showing how to build a static “Access Control List” and how to integrate it with the help of a plugin into an existing application.
I’ve used this way of implementing Zend_Acl some month ago on a medium-sized but simple CRUD user interface as a part of a bigger web application. So what I’m showing here is not just theory but capable for small or even medium real life projects. Maybe I will do a third screencast or write a tutorial which shows some advanced stuff like how to dynamically create and modify access control lists with the help of a database and how to cache the whole thing.
For now, enjoy the screencast.

Hey, thank you so much for this screencast! I’ve been developing with ZF for some months now, but I had never implemented Zend_Acl because I somehow had the impression that it was much more difficult than it really is. Now, after having seen your screencast, I’ve been able to migrate the authorization mechanism of one of my applications in a few hours. Again, thank you for this amazing effort, keep up the good work. Greetings from Spain!
