Export Role Permissions Manager settings

1

Hi

I’ve an app in my local setup where I’ve configured some permissions for different roles in the Role Permissions Manager. Is it possible to export it in a fixture (JSON) like format and apply these changes to the production site?
Since there are a lot of roles/permissions, I’m looking for a solution to export/import these permissions rather than manually creating and maintaining them on the server & development setup.

Thanks

You can export the table Custom DocPerm

I’ve generated a fixture but all the records have "user_permission_doctypes": null and when I migrated this on the server I couldn’t see for which doctype the permissions are applied. Thus, effectively it didn’t help.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Thanks

I have a hard time understanding this. What is the right way to export permissions from one site to another? I understand you can export fixtures on the table Custom DocPerm but how are these permissions connected to a doctype since there is no link between the permissions and doctypes?

Noticed the same thing. Did you get a solution?

fixtures = [{
“doctype”: “Role”,
“filters”: {
“name”: [“in”, “Item Manager Sabila”]
},
“doctype”: “Custom DocPerm”,
“filters”: {
“role”: [“in”,“Item Manager Sabila”]
}
}]

Even after doing this, its not exporting except system manager in production site from local.

You can export the table Custom DocPerm
I don’t think that above solution is a quite solution to that @rmehta

I was wondering if somebody experienced explain how we could export the custom roles permissions to our custom app so we could use it on other ERPNext instances. I am able to export all customizations that i do on doctypes via property setters fixture but for the role and permissions i dont know what is the best way

fixtures = [
{“dt”: “Property Setter”, “filters”: [[“module”, “=”, “mycustomapp”]]}
]

the below is the solution,

i am sharing this so others can benefit from, note that the General Manger is the role that i have created on my dev instance

fixtures = [

{“dt”: “Property Setter”, “filters”: [[“module”, “=”, “mycustomapp”]]}
 
{"dt": "Custom DocPerm", "filters": [["role", "=", "General Manager"]]},

{"dt": "Role", "filters": [["name", "=", "General Manager"]]},

]
