debug should only impact whether `elm` receives the `--debug` flag (enabling the time traveling debugger)

hey,
wanted to talk/ask about one thing. Recently in my project I encountered rather peculiar situation. We had a model for the user that may have the role and permissions against resources. You know, sth along `role: "admin", permissions: []`. So the domain of the problem suggested that admin does not need to have any permissions because he can do anything he likes while user can have certain permissions. That's why I modeled the user along this:
```
type alias User = {name: String, permissions: Permissions}
type Permissions
= AdminPerm
| UserPerm (Dict Key Permission)
```
don't mind the argument for UserPerm. The point is that I discarded the `role` from the data model in favor of union type with permissions. I wanted to avoid a danger that someone sets the permissions for the admin, which was not suppose to be possible in the light of requirements.
One problem down, another pops up. In view I gotta support changing the user role as well as changing permissions. For the ease of my mind, for now, I had created `type Role = Admin | User` which are only possible to be created manually in the view or derived from existing `User` with a function. However I still feel like I am lacking sth or doing one thing in two places even though you cannot use `Role` directly in the User record.
My question, therefore, is perhaps not related to Elm strictly, more to data modeling with types which, as far as I can tell, is encouraged in Elm.
I am just trying to get ahold of some ideas I might have missed. Wonder if someone had to model user related models in quite a safe way to avoid any weird modifications or states a user can end up. My goal is to make it somehow harder to operate on volatile data behind User model.

I'm more used to seeing permissions assigned to roles, and then roles to users who get the union of permissions of their roles. Is there a reason an entity needs both?

E.g. I'm used to seeing more like this:

type Role = Role { name: String, permissions: List Permission};
type User = User {name: String, roles: List Role};
```

You can put Resource in at the Permission or Role level, if you need per-resource control.

I think it's not that uncommon to have a system with just permissions and no roles, except an Admin Boolean

I'd probably model it like this:
```
type alias User = {name: String, role: Role}
type Role
= Admin
| NonAdmin (Dict Key Permission)

while it works nice for the admin, for user it requires me to create an empty dict inside the view and pass it along the update's msg

unless, maybe I can write down changing the role as sort of a toggle, therefore I don't have to pass permissions inside the update's msg, I just change the role to the opposite one

`UserRole` requires the additional data of what are the resources and what are the permissions.

Presumably you have a bunch of checkboxes or something onscreen that provide that info.

Anyhow, however you're denoting it, it's ultimately on your model.

Dede

elmlang

So when you go from AdminRole -> UserRole, you just send a small message from view, and then in your update bit handling the message, you look at the model to pick off the matrix of permissions and resources.

Hi all,
a question about `Browser.Event.on`
As we are living in the virtual dom, creating a load event is not possible. Am I right?
I have this custom event:
```
onLoad : msg -> Attribute msg
onLoad message =
on "load" (Decode.succeed message)
```
and run it in my renderer:
```
section
[ class "hscroller"
, onLoad (Init identifier)
]
```
and have properly set up the message in my update function.
But the message is not send… so: Am I’m doing something wrong, or not possible at all

if you're not doing it at initialisation then you're doing it in `update`

yes. I would do it in my update function. But I need a Msg to trigger that update function, right?

yep, but you need a `Msg` to `update` for the `view` to change at all

2019-02-16T05:10:37.512800

Earlean

So as soon as it’s rendered, it should throw a message to do stuff …
|
2019-02-16T05:10:51.513000

Cathey

elmlang

since the `view` only represents the `model` and you can't change the `model` except in response to some event

2019-02-16T05:11:06.513200
|
Earlean

before any element is rendered in the `view` there was an event that updated to `model` to a state that would result in that element being rendered in the `view`, that is when you do it.

exactly. So I need an event first. And I thought the `load`would do it, but that is not triggered according to the specs…
