How can I make it so that only the author can view nodes of a certain type? (Drupal)

Question

Drupal

The bottom line is,
there is a type of nodes, for example, "Note".
And only he can see the “notes” created by the user and, accordingly, he should not see strangers.

Answer 1

Alternatively, create your own module and use hook_node_access (if it's D7). You will get something like this:

<?php
    function MY_MODULE_node_access($node, $op, $account) {
        if ($node->type == 'MY_NODE_TYPE' && $op == 'view') {
            if ($node->uid == $account->uid) {
                return NODE_ACCESS_ALLOW;
            }
            return NODE_ACCESS_DENY;
        }
    }

On the topic, the first thing that came to my mind: REST API Design Rulebook, RESTful Java with Jax-RS, RESTful Web Services Cookbook.

Answer 3

>> as applied to Java
It is better not to apply Java to web development. On the topic: learn JavaScript, now everyone is building on it

Answer 5

Talk by Joshua Bloch (author of Effective Java, Java Concurrency In Practice, worked at Google as Chief Java Architect): " How to design a good API and why it matters ".

Answer 6

If we are talking about web api - definitely REST. Otherwise, proceed from the task and your needs. For example, if you have a user database, write methods/functions getUserIdList(), getUserById(), and so on. Combine them into modules/classes according to functionality. Let's say users need to be separate from products. Remember abstraction. For example, if you suddenly decide to cache a list of user ids, the interface should remain the same.
In general, I think it comes with experience.
