A succinct guide to getting started

(assuming you have restful authentication setup already)

1. If you’re using submodueles:

   git submodule add git://github.com/jbarket/restful-authorization.git vendor/plugins/restful-authorization

   otherwise:

   script/plugin install git://github.com/jbarket/restful-authorization.git

2. ./script/generate authorized role user




3. At the top of a controller (probably AdminController, if you have one), add:
   
   authorize_role “pro”, where pro is whatever role you want to require
   
   
4. In the console:
   

   
   u = User.find(123) where 123 is whatever user you want to make an admin
   r = Role.create!(:name => "pro")
   u.roles << r
   </pre>

5. That’s it
