Policies (Core Hook)

Status

Stability: 2 - Stable

Purpose

This hook's responsibilities are:

1. Use sails.modules to read policies from the user's app into self.middleware.
2. Normalize the policy mapping config (sails.config.policies)
3. Listen for route:typeUnknown and bind a policy if the route requests it.
4. Listen for router:before and when it fires, transform loaded middleware that match the policy mapping config (i.e. controller actions) to arrays of functions, where the original middleware is "protected" by one or more relevant policy middleware.
