Sample Issue

Feature-Add custom error message

Feature definition

We should be able to add customised error message when a user is denied access to a resource. This will make it provide consistency in messages sent to the client.

Proposed solution

Add a second parameter to the config method which holds the custom message as an object.

acl.config(configObject, {
    status:"UNAUTHORISED ACCESS"
    message: "YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO ACCESS THIS RESOURCE, CONTACT ADMIN FOR CLEARANCE"
});
