This post is a follow up from : zend framework 2 acl in 5 minutes
Step 1
Code in config/autoload/global.php
'navigation' => array(
'default'=> array(
array(
'label' => 'Home',
'route' => 'home',
'resource'=> 'home',
),
array(
'label' => 'Login',
'route' => 'login',
'resource'=> 'login',
),
array(
'label' => 'Register',
'route' => 'register',
'resource'=> 'register',
),
)
)
Step 2
Code in layout.phtml
echo $this->navigation('Navigation')->setAcl($this->acl)->setRole('guest');
Step 3
Add navigation factory in the config
Code in module.config.php
'service_manager' => array(
'factories' => array(
'Navigation' => 'Zend\Navigation\Service\DefaultNavigationFactory',
),
),
Simple as that.

This works perfectly for me however I want to use a partial view script and I was wondering if you knew how to access the ACL information within the partial script

Hello Micheal ,
as the acl object in injected in the layout , so you can access it in any view helper like this :
$acl = $this->getView()->layout()->acl;
I suggest that do not use acl logic in the partial loop.
If you share your problem , may be I can help with a better solution.

Other excellent tutorial, thank you so much. But how can I create another menu – for back end for example. Thanks in advance!

Hello RK,
you can add a factory for the navigation like this:
Go to config -> service_manager -> factories
Add ‘AdminNavigation’ => ‘Application\Factory\AdminNavigation’
Then in that file you have :
class AdminNavigation extends Zend\Navigation\Service\AbstractNavigationFactory
{
function getName()
{
return ‘admin_menu’;
}
}
Then you go to your navigation array and add key : ‘admin_menu’ and its pages array.
Got it ?

@Micheal Wilkinson:
If you need to check permissions on page in your partial you can use the accept() method:
foreach ($this->container as $page){
if($this->navigation()->accept($page)) {
echo $this->navigation()->menu()->htmlify($page);
}
}

Hello, nice article, thank you.
but i’m wondering how to pass user role to checkAcl function in module class ?
In previous article we do like this:
$route = $e->getRouteMatch()->getMatchedRouteName();
$userRole = ‘member’;
if (!$e->getViewModel()->acl->isAllowed($userRole, $route))
.
.
.
But how do it in this way ?

Hello,
the user role, most of the times is stored in the user object, right?
Then you can have a new instance of Zend\Session and get your current user.
If user does not exists in the session, then the role can be guest.
