[bothans-dev] an explanation about rights in Bothans

[Vincent GUILLARD]

Bothans architecture relies on five map group: services, plugins, users, cores, targets .
There are also major sub map under certain map groups. For example there are monitoredservices under targets, catégories under plugins, ...

on each node of every map group, we have to think a right as "this is what this user can do on this node".

rights:
on a user node, target node, core node, monitored services, plugin mode, service node: modify, delete, view
on each root map node: add, modify, view
on service node : add virtual service (filtered from another service)

Each node contains a hash table whose key is the useri_id or a group_id and value is the rights. If the key is a group, we check if the user_id is part of this group_id. (Group are defined in the usr map).

Remember that user_id is the key, and user_name is a human way to access it.
