[jira] [Commented] (OAK-2490) Make it possible to use the PermissionProvider from within query indexes

["Chetan Mehrotra (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-2490?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14312579#comment-14312579 ] 

Chetan Mehrotra commented on OAK-2490:
--------------------------------------

Currently {{Query}} interface has a method {{org.apache.jackrabbit.oak.query.Query#getTree(String path)}} which returns a tree instance for a given path if its accessible. For ACL check requirements in current usecases within Indexes just need to check if a given path is accessible via {{ContentSession}} associated with the Query. So if QueryEngine can provide a method like below (in Filter or any other instance passed to Index while query evaluation) then that should be sufficient
{code}
boolean isAccessible(String path)
{code}

> As discussed on OAK-2423 and OAK-2473 it's useful to have a {{PermissionProvider}} down into {{QueryIndex}} implementations and/or {{SelectorImpl}}, depending on wether the ACL checks have to be done on an implementation base or generally.
