## How to use it

First, install

```
npm install --save hapi-rbac
```

Then, import the module in your hapi server instance.

```js
async () => {
    try {
      await server.register({
        plugin: require('hapi-rbac'),
        options: {
          // rbac-option See API reference
        }
      });
    } catch(er) {
      // ...
    }
}

```

Then, configure your policies. Check the [API Reference](https://github.com/franciscogouveia/hapi-rbac/blob/master/API.md).

## Learn more about _Rule Based Access Control_

To have a better idea of how this works, you can check my Bachelor's project presentation about XACML
[here](http://helios.av.it.pt/attachments/download/559/_en_XACML.PAPOX.Presentation.pdf) (english),
or [here](http://helios.av.it.pt/attachments/download/557/_pt_XACML.PAPOX.Presentation.pdf) (portuguese).

Even though this plugin doesn't implement the XACML specification, it was based on its policies.
