Laravel Roles & Permission

Another Laravel package to manage Roles and Permissions

Based on what I have learned in Laracast

Thanks to Jeffrey Way

Note:

• Tested on Laravel Framework version 5.3.26 .
• The system uses the default Laravel User model.
• You need a database connection.

Steps

1. Require with composer

composer require heymowski/laravel-roles-permissions

2. Add ServiceProvider

/*
 * Package Service Providers...
 */
 Heymowski\RolesAndPermissions\RolesAndPermissionsServiceProvider::class,

3. Publish package files

php artisan vendor:publish

Copied Files:
- Config File: /config/RolesAndPermissions.php
- Migrations:
	2016_11_28_123904_create_roles_table
	2016_11_28_124218_create_permissions_table
	2016_11_28_124701_create_permission_role_table
	2016_11_28_125042_create_role_user_table
- Seeds (Some roles and permissions): 
	RoleSeeder.php
	PermissionSeeder.php

4. Migrate Tables

php artisan migrate

5. Add trait to your User model

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;

use Heymowski\RolesAndPermissions\Traits\HasRoles;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable, HasRoles;

6. Test System

To test the system you have to be logged in
http://localhost:8000/rolesandpermissions/role

7. Add rules to your Blades or Controllers

@can('permission_name')

	The Current User Can ...

@endcan

@cannot('permission_name')

	The Current User Can't ...

@endcannot

if (Gate::allows('permission_name')) {

	The current user can ...

}

if (Gate::denies('permission_name')) {

	The current user can't ...

}
