able.to view helper: check access or assign access?

[gautamarora]

Hi, Is the use of the able.to helper to check if the user has access on a certain target or to assign access to a target.

From the docs, i expected it to check access, but it seems it assigns.

I have the fix in place if this is a bug, or else think another helper to check access will be useful.

It should just check access, assigning should, use the abilities definition in the example. Though, as per this request and your others: I can not legally continue work on this project, though I can advise on it and will be happy to take pull requests and/or someone to takeover the project. It exists as it is today because I extracted what parts I could.

ok, i think there was a bug and instead of checking it was assigning the ability. fixed at: https://github.com/gautamarora/ability-js/commit/6e8b09c77f6af447c2df91747dd985e27f764770

can issue a pull, if you think its right

That's correct, go ahead and submit a pull request!
