Jquery Checkbox Assign Multiple Permissions to a Role

Table of contents

In this post, I will share a simple code on how to implement a jquery checkbox to assign multiple permissions to a role. In case you are implementing multiple permissions with a checkbox to a role then this post might help you.

Previously, I posted about how to implement the jQuery TableCheckAll plugin which I created. You can visit here the previous post.

jquery multiple select checkbox

Okay, you have the idea already what is the expected output. Let's process how to do it.

First, Clone the TableCheckAll jquery Plugin.

git clone https://github.com/codeanddeploy/Jquery-Table-Check-All-Plugin.git

Once you downloaded it, create a new file inside the folder you downloaded. Let's say index.html then paste the code below:

Second, Here is the full source code

In this section, we have a sample source code that can implement to your project.

Take note: The .select-all-permissions and .select-permission classes are able to select all modules permissions. So you don't need to replace these classes.

For .select-permission class, you need to add this in every module permission checkbox including the module select all permission checkbox. As you can see in this code:

<tr>
  <th scope="row">Clients</th>
  <td><input type="checkbox" class="select-permission select-all-module-permissions select-all-client-permissions" data-class="select-all-client-permissions"> Select All</td>
  <td><input type="checkbox" class="select-permission select-module-permission select-client-permission" data-class="select-client-permission"> Create Client <input type="checkbox" class="select-permission select-module-permission select-client-permission" data-class="select-client-permission"> Edit Client</td>
</tr>

To trigger the module permission we need also to add class .select-module-permission and specific class for each module permission with custom attribute data-class="select-{module_name}-permission" and class name .select-{module_name}-permission.

Take note that the {module_name} is your module name without space.

Then in each module select all checkbox. You need to add .select-all-module-permissions class name. Because we use this to loop all available modules.

Then next we will add a custom attribute data-class="select-all-{module_name}-permissions" and add a class .select-all-{module_name}-permissions in each module select all checkbox.

Here is the full source code.
