      Acl parseAcl​(Page page, java.lang.String ruleLine) throws WikiSecurityException

      Parameters:
      page - The current wiki page. If the page already has an ACL, it will be used as a basis for this ACL in order to avoid the creation of a new one.
      ruleLine - The rule line, as described above.
      Returns:
      A valid Access Control List. May be empty.
      Throws:
      WikiSecurityException - if the ruleLine was faulty somehow.

    • getPermissions

      Acl getPermissions​(Page page)
      Returns the access control list for the page. If the ACL has not been parsed yet, it is done on-the-fly. If the page has a parent page, then that is tried also. This method was moved from Authorizer; it was consolidated with some code from AuthorizationManager.
      Parameters:
      page - the wiki page
      Returns:
      the Acl representing permissions for the page
