Restricted Access to a Contract is a common practice. By Default, a contract state is read-only unless it is specified as public.
We can restrict who can modify the contract”s state or call a contract”s functions using modifiers. We will create and use multiple modifiers as explained below −
-
onlyBy − once used on a function then only the mentioned caller can call this function.
-
onlyAfter − once used on a function then that function can be called after certain time period.
-
costs − once used on a function then caller can call this function only if certain value is provided.
Example
pragma solidity ^0.5.0; contract Test { address public owner = msg.sender; uint public creationTime = now; modifier onlyBy(address _account) { require( msg.sender == _account, "Sender not authorized." ); _; } function changeOwner(address _newOwner) public onlyBy(owner) { owner = _newOwner; } modifier onlyAfter(uint _time) { require( now >= _time, "Function called too early." ); _; } function disown() public onlyBy(owner) onlyAfter(creationTime + 6 weeks) { delete owner; } modifier costs(uint _amount) { require( msg.value >= _amount, "Not enough Ether provided." ); _; if (msg.value > _amount) msg.sender.transfer(msg.value - _amount); } function forceOwnerChange(address _newOwner) public payable costs(200 ether) { owner = _newOwner; if (uint(owner) & 0 == 1) return; } }
