React RBAC UI Manager - User Guide

react-rbac-ui-manager is a simple RBAC (Role Based Access Control) user interface library based on the material design system using the Material-UI lib.

Usage

Simple usage:

import Rbac from "@build-security/react-rbac-ui-manager";
import { PermissionsObject } from "@build-security/react-rbac-ui-manager/dist/types";

const handleChange = (value: PermissionsObject) => {
    console.log(value)
};

<Rbac
    onChange={handleChange}
/>

Customized icons:

import Rbac from "@build-security/react-rbac-ui-manager";
import { PermissionsObject } from "@build-security/react-rbac-ui-manager/dist/types";
import DeleteIcon from '@material-ui/icons/Delete';
import styled from "styled-components";

const handleChange = (value: PermissionsObject) => {
    console.log(value)
 };

const deleteIcon = styled(DeleteIcon)`
    background: red;
    color: black;

    &.MuiSvgIcon-colorError {
        color: black;
    }
`;
 
<Rbac
    icons={{
        deleteIcon: deleteIcon
    }}
    onChange={handleChange}
/>

👉 Note - the JSON Viewer is not part of this lib.
The live example (in codesandbox) contains a working version with external viewer
