The base plugin to handle access control.

Access plugins are responsible for controlling a user's access to the view. Views includes plugins for checking user roles and individual permissions.

To define an access control plugin, extend this base class. Your access plugin should have an annotation that includes the plugin's metadata, for example: @Plugin( id = "denyall", title = @Translation("No Access"), help = @Translation("Will not be accessible.") ) The definition should include the following keys:

  • id: The unique identifier of your access plugin.
  • title: The human-readable name for your access plugin.
  • help: A short help message for your plugin.
