Show Permissions
================
:synopsis: Show all permissions for Django models
Introduction
------------
The ``show_permissions`` management command lists all permissions for the models in your Django project.
By default, it excludes built-in Django apps such as ``admin``, ``auth``, ``contenttypes``, and ``sessions``.
This command is useful to quickly inspect the permissions assigned to models, especially when customizing permission logic or managing role-based access.
Basic Usage
-----------
.. code-block:: bash
python manage.py show_permissions
This will output the list of permissions for models in all installed apps **excluding** built-in Django apps.
Examples
--------
Show permissions for specific apps and models:
.. code-block:: bash
python manage.py show_permissions blog
python manage.py show_permissions blog.Post
Show permissions including built-in Django apps:
.. code-block:: bash
python manage.py show_permissions --all
Show permissions for only a specific app using the `--app-label` option:
.. code-block:: bash
python manage.py show_permissions --app-label blog
Options
-------
* ``--all``
Include permissions for Django’s built-in apps (``admin``, ``auth``, ``contenttypes``, ``sessions``).
* ``--app-label <label>``
Only show permissions for the specified app label.
* ``app_label.model`` (positional argument)
Restrict output to specific model(s), optionally prefixed by app label.
* ``--verbosity {0,1,2,3}``
Set verbosity level (default: 1).
* ``--settings <path>``
Set a specific Django settings module.
* ``--pythonpath <path>``
Add a path to the Python module search path.
* ``--traceback``
Show full traceback on error.
* ``--no-color`` / ``--force-color``
Toggle colored output.
* ``--skip-checks``
Skip Django’s system checks.
Conclusion
----------
The ``show_permissions`` command is a handy tool for developers and administrators to audit or debug permission settings within their Django project.
