I've managed to make it possible for a user to post something that all users can read/write. { "*" : { "read" : true, "write" : true } }. But how can I make a post read/writable to user and only readable to everybody else.

I've found this, but I don't know how to replace the examples userId with the actually logged in user:

{ "5278cafce4b01085e4b7945a": { "read": true, "write": true },
"*" : { "read" : true } }

I'm thinking something like this (added javascript in acl of service added to page), but with this code I don't know how to make it readable to all users instead:

var acl = {};
acl[value]= { "read": true, "write": true };
return acl;

I already have a localStorage var of current users id, if that's for any help.

Also; I want to, in another page, list posts from this collection, but only those who were posted by the user. Solution?

Thanks. V

This tutorial shows how to do it: http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/build...

Almost... It doesn't show how I make an item read:true for all users.

I get it that that code gives the current user read:true write:true. Please, just tell me how to also make it read:true for all users while read:true write:true for current user.

I don't consider this question answered

Hello! We're working on your request.

You need to do mapping from your variable in localStorage to acl field in save request and add the following JS in mapping: prevar acl = {};
acl[value] = { "read": true, "write": true };
acl[ "*" ] = { "read" : true };

return acl;/pre

Thank you Maryna, that's the answer I was looking for!

As to my second question: Maryna's code worked and now I want to list only the logged in users posts, in other words only posts of this kind that was created by the currently logged in user. Like on a page "Your posts".

I'm thinking maybe a query service passing userId localStorage variable into "where" param and coding something like:

var where = {};
where = {"_id" : [value]};
return where;

and then mapping response to the list. But It doens't do it... any thoughts?

Thanks, V
