Flexible per-object authorization backend for Django
Project description
django-rulez is a fork of django-rules, since some of the goals django-rules set themselves didn’t match our current project goals.You can refer to their github project page for more information about this cool project: https://github.com/maraujop/django-rules Kudos for the good work guys!
Generally, it is a per-object authorization backend, that stores the rules themselves as methods on model.
