Hey all,
I am trying to find a method that can return a list of groups that have a given access
right to a given page. Is there a method(s) that allow me to do that? I'm aware that
you can create an object of AccessRights onto a given page and filter in groups and users
that have access rights to a given page, but only admins can see that. I need to generate
a list of groups that have granted access so that when an unregistered user tries to log
onto a page that he doesn't have access to, a list will be generated so that he can
ask for membership to those groups.
Thank you,
Felix Wu

Hello Felix,
I think you're looking for:
$xwiki.hasAccessLevel("edit", "XWiki.SomeUser",
"Main.DocumentInQuestion"))
see:
http://maven.xwiki.org/site/xwiki-core-parent/xwiki-core/apidocs/com/xpn/xw…
It says users, but I think you can use a group name instead.

Caleb and the XWiki community,
Thanks for the response! I wasn't actually aware that this method could take groups as
parameters, but if you're right, then it really might solve our problem! However,
given the number of groups that we have on xwiki, it may prove a little tedious. Are there
any methods that perform these functions:
xwiki.getGroupsWhoHaveAccessToAGivenPage("view,edit, etc",$docname)
or a context method:
context.getGroupsWhoHaveAccessToThisPage("view, edit, etc")
that would allow us to get a list of users back? I haven't heard of a method in xwiki
that actually returns an array or list, so I may just be hoping for too much, but if
anyone can think of a way to implement this, then it would be fabulous.
Thanks!
Felix
