designing a role system

[albjeremias]

Implement a role system on the backend. the roles will be the following:

Registered User

• can select all public networks
• can create a button on any public network
• can access and create buttons private networks, which are assigned to this user
• can publish on the newsfeed of the button

Guest

• can explore the public networks and read the buttons

Network administrator

• Can set a network as private and generate a link to invite new users to the network
• Can remove users from a network so they won't have access no more
• Can edit the network

Network creator (same as Network admin and also) :

-Can delete the network
-Can block other admins

Instance/server administrator

• can create networks, and generate a link to invite users to manage it, can invite users to manage network
• all the above

@watchoutfreedom does this make sense?

[watchoutfreedom]

yes, it would be good to define this alongside the user model. Some features like "support" other users can affect those categories but I feel those 4 are the main important ones.

When are we defining the user model?

When are we defining the user model?

#9

[albjeremias]

this will define maybe api endpoints, and also is verrry related with the ACL. which means #10 and #25 need to be implemented first
