Casbin's newEnforcer crash the app
I'm trying to configure a RBAC using Casbin following the Doc.
Creating the AccessControlProvider, the newEnforcer function causes the error in the image.
I have checked the where is the index file from, and it is from csv-parse/lib package. I'm not using that library, I guess the casbin library uses it, but I don't know what to do to solve it.
here is my accessControl file
And here is the casbin configuration in the app file:

Hi @jaoc1811. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
Based on the information provided in the extracts, it seems like you're on the right track with setting up Role Based Access Control (RBAC) using Casbin in your refine application. However, the error you're encountering seems to be related to the
csv-parse/lib
package, which is not directly mentioned in the extracts.
The newEnforcer
function from Casbin is used correctly in your code, as shown in the extracts. It's used to create an enforcer with the model and adapter you've defined.
(Source: refine.dev docs (https://refine.dev/docs/advanced-tutorials/access-control))
However, the error you're encountering might be due to some compatibility issues or missing configurations for Casbin to work in a browser environment. As mentioned in the extracts, you might need to configure some polyfills for Casbin to work properly. This can be done using react-app-rewired
to override some configurations of your app.
First, add react-app-rewired
to your project:
Then, update the scripts in your package.json
:
Next, add the following packages:
Finally, include a config-overrides.js
file to the root of your app folder. You can find an example of this file here (https://github.com/anewman15/refine/blob/pixels-admin/examples/pixels-admin/config-overrides.js).
(Source: refine.dev blog (https://refine.dev/blog/refine-pixels-6))
If the error persists after these steps, it might be due to a specific issue with your project setup or a bug in the libraries you're using. In that case, you might want to reach out to the maintainers of the Casbin library or the refine community for more specific help.

@kapa.ai do you know how can I make an access control with CASL?
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
----------------------
I'm sorry, but the provided extracts do not contain information on how to implement access control with CASL in a refine application. My knowledge is based on the information provided in the extracts, and they only cover the implementation of Role Based Access Control (RBAC) using Casbin in refine.
For more information on how to implement access control in refine, you can refer to the refine access control documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/api-reference/core/providers/accessControl-provider/).
For implementing access control with CASL, you might want to refer to the official CASL documentation or other relevant resources.

Hey @jaoc1811 Do you get the same problem with the following example application?
There may be changes in the Cerbos package. You can try using the versions here.

Hi! I have not tried with Cerbos yet, I was looking with a simple solution like Casbin. But I have not succeed yet.
Maybe I'm gonna try with cerbos
But checking the casbin example, I saw that they use casbin 5.15.2 and I'm using 5.26. I'm going to install the same version and try again
I made it!
I had to copy the vite.config.js from the casbin example. I don't know why it was so different to the file generated by refine. I'm gonna mark it as resolved, thanks!
