Command Scopes

此内容尚不支持你的语言。

A scope is a granular way to define (dis)allowed behavior of a Tauri command.

Scopes are categorized into allow or deny scopes, where deny always supersedes the allow scope.

The scope type needs be of any serde serializable type. These types are plugin-specific in general. For scoped commands implemented in a Tauri application the scope type needs to be defined in the application and then enforced in the command implementation.

For instance, the Fs plugin allows you to use scopes to allow or deny certain directories and files and the http plugin uses scopes to filter URLs that are allowed to be reached.

The scope is passed to the command and handling or properly enforcing is implemented by the command itself.

Examples

These examples are taken from the Fs plugin permissions:

The scope type in this plugin for all commands is a string, which contains a glob compatible path.

[[permission]]
identifier = "scope-applocaldata-recursive"
description = '''
This scope recursive access to the complete `$APPLOCALDATA` folder,
including sub directories and files.
'''

[[permission.scope.allow]]
path = "$APPLOCALDATA/**"

[[permission]]
identifier = "deny-webview-data-linux"
description = '''
This denies read access to the
`$APPLOCALDATA` folder on linux as the webview data and
configuration values are stored here.
Allowing access can lead to sensitive information disclosure and
should be well considered.
'''
platforms = ["linux"]

[[scope.deny]]
path = "$APPLOCALDATA/**"

[[permission]]
identifier = "deny-webview-data-windows"
description = '''
This denies read access to the
`$APPLOCALDATA/EBWebView` folder on windows as the webview data and
configuration values are stored here.
Allowing access can lead to sensitive information disclosure and
should be well considered.
'''
platforms = ["windows"]

[[scope.deny]]
path = "$APPLOCALDATA/EBWebView/**"

The above scopes can be used to allow access to the APPLOCALDATA folder, while preventing access to the EBWebView subfolder on windows, which contains sensitive webview data.

These can merged into a set, which reduces duplicate configuration and makes it more understandable for anyone looking into the application configuration.

First the deny scopes are merged into deny-default:

[[set]]
identifier = "deny-default"
description = '''
This denies access to dangerous Tauri relevant files and
folders by default.
'''
permissions = ["deny-webview-data-linux", "deny-webview-data-windows"]

Afterwards deny and allow scopes are merged:

[[set]]
identifier = "scope-applocaldata-reasonable"
description = '''
This scope set allows access to the `APPLOCALDATA` folder and
subfolders except for linux,
while it denies access to dangerous Tauri relevant files and
folders by default on windows.
'''
permissions = ["scope-applocaldata-recursive", "deny-default"]

These scopes can be either used for all commands, by extending the global scope of the plugin, or for only selected commands when they are used in combination with a enabled command inside a permission.

Reasonable read only file access to files in the APPLOCALDATA could look like this:

[[set]]
identifier = "read-files-applocaldata"
description = '''
This set allows file read access to the `APPLOCALDATA` folder and
subfolders except for linux,
while it denies access to dangerous Tauri relevant files and
folders by default on windows.'''
permissions = ["scope-applocaldata-reasonable", "allow-read-file"]

These examples only highlight the scope functionality itself. Each plugin or application developer needs to consider reasonable combinations of scope depending on their use cases.
