Concept

• Access Control (WebForms)

• Access Control (MVC)

Example

WebForms (declaratively):

ASPX

<dx:ASPxFileManager ID="ASPxFileManager1" runat="server">    
    <SettingsPermissions>
        <AccessRules>
            <dx:FileManagerFileAccessRule Edit="Deny" Browse="Allow" Path="*.docx" />
            <dx:FileManagerFolderAccessRule Role="Administrator"  EditContents="Allow" Browse="Allow" Path="Documents" />
        </AccessRules>
    </SettingsPermissions>
</dx:ASPxFileManager>

WebForms (in code):

C#

ASPxFileManager fm = new ASPxFileManager();
...
FileManagerFileAccessRule fileRule = new FileManagerFileAccessRule();
fileRule.Path = "*.docx";
fileRule.Edit = Rights.Allow;
fileRule.Download = Rights.Allow;

FileManagerFolderAccessRule folderRule= new FileManagerFolderAccessRule();
folderRule.Role = "Administrator";
folderRule.EditContents = Rights.Allow;
folderRule.Browse = Rights.Allow;

FileManager.SettingsPermissions.AccessRules.Add(fileRule);
FileManager.SettingsPermissions.AccessRules.Add(folderRule);
...

MVC:

C#

@Html.DevExpress().FileManager( settings => {
    settings.Name = "fileManager";

    FileManagerFileAccessRule fileRule = new FileManagerFileAccessRule();
    fileRule.Path = "*.docx";
    fileRule.Edit = Rights.Allow;
    fileRule.Download = Rights.Allow;

    FileManagerFolderAccessRule folderRule= new FileManagerFolderAccessRule();
    folderRule.Role = "Administrator";
    folderRule.EditContents = Rights.Allow;
    folderRule.Browse = Rights.Allow;

    FileManager.SettingsPermissions.AccessRules.Add(fileRule);
    FileManager.SettingsPermissions.AccessRules.Add(folderRule);
    ...
}).BindToFolder(Model).GetHtml()
