    Creating DNN modules with ES

    Are there any basic examples that show creating a DNN module with ES? 

    If not, do you have any recommended references on how to create a DNN module and then use ES?

    If I allowed a client to create a module and use ES to access the data can they bypass the DNN permissions to access site level data directly? I would not want a user to be able to install a module and then gain acess to just any table in the database. Are there security recommendations on this?

    Re: Creating DNN modules with ES

    In order to install a module in DNN you must have host level access. Anyone who is a host is a super user, and as such they should have all the security required. If you allow a client to create a module for you regardless of whether or not they use ES, you would have to inspect the code to verify secure functionality otherwise you are just trusting the developer is doing what they should. This is no different regardless of how the module is written. To create a module using es, use the DNN WAP starter kit for your language, and then just set es up like you would normally.

    Hi

    Have you taken a look at the info under the "Support" menu on the main www.entityspaces.net site? There is info there specifically on DNN Modules

    Hope that helps

    Yes, the support menu on the main site has a subsection devoted to DNN with a sample app and source code. Also this more recent thread contains an overview of the module creation process with a link to a C# starter kit.
