Hapi - how to access route scope from request object












0















I have a Hapi API, using JWT for authentication. My JWT's validate function works as



let validate = (decoded, request, callback) => {
// decoded.permissions is an array of the users's permissions


My route is defined with a dynamic scope as follows;



path: "/{portalId}/somedata",
method: "POST",
config: {
auth: {
strategy: "jwt",
scope: ['user-{params.portalId}']
}


I want to restrict the call to only be allowed is the user's permissions array contains an item for 'user-1', but I don't know what to check against in my validate function.



Where in the request can I find the route's scope restriction for the current call?



Or, how else can I construct this scheme to work for what I need?

          Welp, I ended up solving it a different way



          My route stayed the same but in the validation function I construct an array of scope string based on the decoded userId and then just add that to the scope



          userPermissions: string = buildUserPermissions(userId);
          // after they pass any checks
          return callback(null, true, {scope: userPermissions, user: user} );
