I create a custom permission definition in DB. On next step I assign it to a user role. This next step is impossible until I restart the app (so the list of permission definitions is being actualized). I do not want app restart - I need a "hot-reload" for permission definitions. How can I implement this? No dramatic changes, no switching to dynamic permissions! - I just need a small "Refresh" method, which would trigger permission definition list reload - so they all would be available for role assignment. Please, show a piece of code.

    I've overridden ABP PermissionAppService and debugged it. No issue found inside - the code below is called and contains correct data:

        public virtual async Task UpdateAsync(string providerName, string providerKey, UpdatePermissionsDto input)
        {
            await CheckProviderPolicy(providerName);
    
            foreach (var permissionDto in input.Permissions)
            {
                await PermissionManager.SetAsync(permissionDto.Name, providerName, providerKey, permissionDto.IsGranted);
            }
    
            await RabbitMqManager.UpdateAbpPermissionsAsync(input.Permissions, providerName, providerKey, CurrentTenant.Id);
        }
    

    So moving on, I've overriden PermissionManager too and found out that SetAsync does not actually update DB:

    I can see though, that there's no point to override PermissionManager - its method is very simple:

        public override async Task<PermissionDefinition> GetOrNullAsync(string name)
        {
            Check.NotNull(name, nameof(name));
        
            return await _staticStore.GetOrNullAsync(name) ??
                   await _dynamicStore.GetOrNullAsync(name);
        }
        
    

    So I proceeded - overridden StaticPermissionDefinitionStore:

        [Dependency(ReplaceServices = true)]
        [ExposeServices(typeof(IStaticPermissionDefinitionStore))]
        public class ApiStaticPermissionDefinitionStore : StaticPermissionDefinitionStore, IApiStaticPermissionDefinitionStore
        {
            public ApiStaticPermissionDefinitionStore(
                IServiceProvider serviceProvider,
                IOptions<AbpPermissionOptions> options) : base(serviceProvider, options)
            {
            }
        
            public void AddPermissionDefinition(string key, PermissionDefinition permissionDefinition)
            {
                if (!PermissionDefinitions.ContainsKey(key))
                {
                    PermissionDefinitions.Add(key, permissionDefinition);
                }
            }
        }
    

    My idea was to create a method in my IStaticPermissionDefinitionStore override, where I would FORCE adding a new PermissionDefinition to the existing collection. However, after adding it I've discovered that a whole custom permission definition collection is broken. BTW - inside AddPermissionDefinition I've looked at a whole PermissionDefinitions collection and suprisingly discovered that not all definitions are there: my custom definitions were not there by this time (yet?)

    Probably you can suggest another way around this?

    hi

    It uses Lazy to store the permissions.

    You can copy all the code of StaticPermissionDefinitionStore and create a new MyStaticPermissionDefinitionStore

    https://github.com/abpframework/abp/blob/dev/framework/src/Volo.Abp.Authorization/Volo/Abp/Authorization/Permissions/StaticPermissionDefinitionStore.cs#L18

    I already did this before. And I'm getting the error about missing custom permission definition group: All other permission definition groups are at place. When I do not override StaticPermissionDefinitionStore - the custom permission definition group is present as expected.

    What do I need to adjust in MyStaticPermissionDefinitionStore to make the group available?

    hi

    You can check the source code of StaticPermissionDefinitionStore

    I've finally managed to resolve my issue. I will show my approach - probably this would come in handy for someone:

    Actually two steps are needed:

    1. Create permission itself and add it as a child either to another custom permission or to the root permission node (in my case it is roleSubgroupPermissionDefinition):

       readModuleRolePermissionDefinition = roleSubgroupPermissionDefinition?.AddChild(readRoleName).WithProviders(ModulePermissionRoleValueProvider.ProviderName);
      
    2. Add the created permission to PermissionDefinitions collection of ABP static permission store:

       await (_staticPermissionDefinitionStore as IExtendedStaticPermissionDefinitionStore).AddPermissionDefinitionAsync(readModuleRolePermissionDefinition.Name, readModuleRolePermissionDefinition);
      

    For this, i've extended ABP class with own methods. They are very simple - just to have access to PermissionDefinitions collection:

        public Task AddPermissionDefinitionAsync(string key, PermissionDefinition permissionDefinition)
        {
            if (!PermissionDefinitions.ContainsKey(key))
            {
                PermissionDefinitions.Add(key, permissionDefinition);
            }
            return Task.CompletedTask;
        }
    

    Nothing more is needed - no refresh or something...

    Thank you for your cooperation.
