I have got a simple web app in development, i want to establish a couple of user groups; Admin, Doctors & Patients.

Each group would have their access restricted to particular controller actions rather than individual content. So for example, Doctors can view patient records (index & view actions), but cannot delete them.

Usually i would create a groups model, and assign the various users to a group. And filter in the beforeFilter() method to determine if the user has access. But if ACL can do the job, why right the code, right?

Thanks

    You do not need to filter in the beforeFilter() method to determine if the user has access but you need to provide configuration to Auth component there. Follow Simple Acl controlled Application from tutorial (Setting up permissions).
