role_fu

RoleFu is a modern, explicit role management gem for Ruby on Rails. It is designed as a cleaner, more performant alternative to legacy role gems, providing full control over role assignments and granular permissions.

#Why RoleFu?

• Explicit Models: Uses an explicit RoleAssignment join model instead of hidden tables, making it easy to add metadata or audit trails.
• N+1 Prevention: Built-in support for has_cached_role? and optimized scopes.
• Strict by Default: Resource-specific checks are strict, ensuring global roles don’t accidentally leak permissions unless configured otherwise.
• Advanced Features: Supports temporal (expiring) roles, metadata, audit logging, and granular abilities.
