@chilly-king-10285 can you help me out with OPL where I have multiple modules within the system : • Appointment • Finance etc. I have the following permissions in Appointment modules 1. Create appointment 2. Delete appointment 3. Update blockouts etc. I have roles to which these permissions will be assigned and further these roles will be assigned to the user. I will do the permission whether is user has permission for the action or not

Sure, I can guide you on how to model this in Ory using the Ory Permission Language (OPL). Firstly, you need to define your objects and their relationships. In your case, the objects could be
Appointment
and
Finance
, and the relationships could be the different permissions like
createAppointment
,
deleteAppointment
,
updateBlockouts
, etc. Here is a simplified example of how you might define these in OPL:
Copy code
typescript import { Namespace, Context } from "@ory/keto-namespace-types"    class User implements Namespace {}    class Appointment implements Namespace {    related: {      creators: User[]      deleters: User[]      blockoutUpdaters: User[]    }   }    class Finance implements Namespace {    // Define relationships for Finance module here }
In this example,
creators
,
deleters
, and
blockoutUpdaters
are the roles that you mentioned. These roles are represented as relationships between the
User
and
Appointment
entities. Next, you need to define the permissions for each role. Permissions in OPL are essentially TypeScript functions that return a boolean value based on the relationships. Here is how you might define the permissions:
Copy code
typescript class Appointment implements Namespace {    related: {      creators: User[]      deleters: User[]      blockoutUpdaters: User[]    }     permits = {      create: (ctx: Context): boolean => this.related.creators.includes(ctx.subject),      delete: (ctx: Context): boolean => this.related.deleters.includes(ctx.subject),      updateBlockouts: (ctx: Context): boolean => this.related.blockoutUpdaters.includes(ctx.subject),    }   }
In this example, the
create
,
delete
, and
updateBlockouts
functions check if the subject (the user) has the corresponding role. Finally, you can use the Ory Permissions API to create and manage these relationships and permissions programmatically. For example, to check if a user has permission to create an appointment, you would ask Ory Permissions:
is User:Bob allowed to create on Appointment:X
. Please note that this is a simplified example and the actual implementation might be more complex depending on your specific needs. You can find more information on how to create a permission model in the [Ory documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/keto/modeling/create-permission-model).
