Role Manager角色经理

Posted on: 24/02/2020 (last updated: 13/08/2021) by Thomas Zahn

Role Manager, along with the User Manager, simplifies MongoDB admin tasks like granting and modifying roles, listing users by role, and more. 角色管理器与用户管理器一起简化了MongoDB管理任务,如授予和修改角色、按角色列出用户等等。Try them both today今天两个都试试.

Basics基础

Studio 3T’s Role Manager makes it easy to assign built-in roles and user-defined roles and list MongoDB users by role. But first, let’s look at a few basic concepts.

MongoDB privileges

A privilege is the foundation of a MongoDB role. It is made up of a resource and actions.

MongoDB resources

A resource is where the privileges are applied to, be it a cluster, a database, or specific collections within a database. 资源是应用特权的地方,可以是集群、数据库或数据库中的特定集合。You can choose one of three built-in resource options in Studio 3T:您可以在Studio 3T中选择三个内置资源选项之一:

MongoDB (privilege) actions

Actions define what a user can do within a MongoDB resource.操作定义用户在MongoDB资源中可以做什么。

You can find a list of privilege actions here. If you already know which actions to choose, skip to the next chapter.

Open Role Manager

Download the latest version of Studio 3T here.

To open Role Manager:

Create a new role创建新角色

  1. Open Role Manager and click on Add.打开角色管理器并单击“添加”。
  2. Enter a name for the new role and ensure that the target database is correct.输入新角色的名称,并确保目标数据库正确。
  3. To inherit privileges from existing roles, click on the Roles tab and add the relevant role. 要从现有角色继承权限,请单击“角色”选项卡并添加相关角色。This will spare the manual task of adding resources and actions step by step.这将省去手动逐步添加资源和操作的任务。
  4. Click on the Privileges tab.单击“权限”选项卡。
  5. Click on Add.点击“添加”。
  6. Choose the appropriate resource and click OK.
  7. Choose the appropriate actions and click OK.
  8. Check that everything is correct and click Create Rule.

View the JSON code behind the user creation by clicking on Show Code.

View a role

  1. Open Role Manager and choose a role.
  2. Click on View to open the role profile and implement any changes.

Remove a role

  1. Open Role Manager and select a role.
  2. Click on the Remove button.
  3. Click Yes to delete the role.

Find users granted a specific role

In MongoDB, users are defined for specific databases. Each user is then assigned a number of roles that in turn define the user’s privileges.

While MongoDB’s API makes it trivial to list all roles that a particular user has been granted, there is unfortunately no easy way for the reverse case where you want to find all users that have been granted a particular role, i.e. the role’s grantees. Studio 3T makes it very easy to find those users.

List MongoDB roles

First off, connect to your MongoDB server as a user that has sufficient privileges to manage users and roles.

Then, simply select the database that contains the role for which you want to find all grantees.

Click the “Roles” icon in the toolbar.

Inspect selected MongoDB role

This will open the roles management tab for this database.

Here, you can see all the built-in and user-defined roles created for the database.

Now, simply select the role for which you want to see all the users that have been granted that role. In our case, that is the user-defined role “rwAdmin”.

Then click the “Edit” button.

List MongoDB users with the selected role

By default, In the “Granted To” tab, you can see all grantees from the same database that the role is defined in.

In our case, that is natalie, paul, peter, and richard.

If you want to see all users from all databases that have been granted role “rwAdmin”, click the “Refresh for all DBs” button.

That’s it! You can now see all users from all databases that have been granted the role “rwAdmin” on our database “test”.

Modify MongoDB roles

In this view, you can now even conceptually add new users to this role. For this, click the “Add” button.

In the new dialog, you can choose users from any database that you want to add to the role.

Of course, users in MongoDB are not really added to a role. Rather, under the hood, the selected users will be granted the role instead. Click “Add” to add the selected users.

Complement this reading with the article, MongoDB Users and Roles Explained, or a little refresh on how to grant roles to multiple users and how to authenticate users (because a secure MongoDB instance is a happy MongoDB instance 🙂 ).
