Extended Entity Access for Routes

Simplify per-bundle entity access checking for routes. Example: _entity_access: <ENTITY_TYPE>[:<BUNDLE>].<OPERATION>.

From the developer perspective, this module - just improvement of existing access_check.entity service. Default implementation - \Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityAccessCheck - overridden and empowered with possibility to verify entity bundle, if it specified. That's all.

Example

For instance, you want to add a local task to the page of specific entity bundle. To do this you'll just need to define a new route (in example.routing.yml) and a task itself (in example.links.task.yml).

example.routing.yml:

example.route:
  path: '/admin/structure/types/manage/{node_type}/example-page'
  defaults:
    _title: 'Example page'
    _form: '\Drupal\example\Entity\NodeType\Form\ExamplePage'
  requirements:
    _entity_access: 'node_type:article.update'

example.links.task.yml:

example.route:
  title: 'Example task'
  base_route: entity.node_type.edit_form
  route_name: example.route

IMPORTANT: The buildForm() method of \Drupal\example\Entity\NodeType\Form\ExamplePage class must contain additional argument, named exactly as entity type (argument type can be omitted).

/**
 * {@inheritdoc}
 */
public function buildForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state, \Drupal\node\Entity\NodeType $node_type = NULL): array {
  return $form;
}

Page and local task as well will not be accessible if this requirement will be ignored.
