The Bakery Everything CakePHP

I wrote this initially for Cake 1.1 - basing it on ideas from "obAuth" by Steve Oliveira, but upgraded it to 1.2 rather than using the built in Auth component, mostly because this works how I want it to and, once setup, is really easy to use.

Main Features:

- Per action / per controller / inline access control
- Optional Group support for HABTM and User BelongsTo Group associations
- A "super-user" functionality allowing one group automatic access granted
- Optional tamper-proof Cookie support
- Custom password hashing to suit your Model

An update to the original DarkAuth component (http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/darkauth-another-way), with increased efficiency and easier access control. It works exactly how I want to, so it might not be your first choice, but it's a solid alternative to the inbuilt AuthComponent.

Main Features:

- Per action / per controller / inline access control
- Group support for HABTM and BelongsTo Group associations, or disable groups control completely.
- A "super-user" functionality allowing one group automatic access granted
- Optional tamper-proof Cookie support
- Custom password hashing to suit your Model
- Passes User Info and Access Matrix to view
- Methods to access User Info / Access Matrix in Controller
