Usage

First, add the Konekt\Acl\Traits\HasRoles trait to your User model(s):

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Konekt\Acl\Traits\HasRoles;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasRoles;

    // ...
}

⚠ Note that if you need to use HasRoles trait with another model ex.Page you will also need to add protected $guard_name = 'web'; as well to that model, otherwise you'll get an error

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Spatie\Permission\Traits\HasRoles;

class Page extends Model
{
   use HasRoles;

   protected $guard_name = 'web'; // or whatever guard you want to use

   // ...
}

Roles & Permissions

This package allows for users to be associated with permissions and roles. Every role is associated with multiple permissions. A Role and a Permission are regular Eloquent models. They require a name and can be created like this:

use Konekt\Acl\Models\Role;
use Konekt\Acl\Models\Permission;

$role = Role::create(['name' => 'writer']);
$permission = Permission::create(['name' => 'edit articles']);

If you're developing a library, and you want your users to customize the models instead of the built-in ones, you can use their proxy counterparts that will forward the calls to the custom models:

use Konekt\Acl\Models\RoleProxy;
use Konekt\Acl\Models\PermissionProxy;

$role = RoleProxy::create(['name' => 'writer']);
$permission = PermissionProxy::create(['name' => 'edit articles']);

If you're using multiple guards the guard_name attribute needs to be set as well. Read about it in the using multiple guards section of the readme.
