README

A Laravel package that extends Spatie Laravel Permission with resource-based permissions and roles. This package allows you to assign permissions and roles to users for specific resources (polymorphic relationships), while maintaining full compatibility with Spatie's existing global permission system.

Features

• Resource-based permissions: Assign permissions to users for specific resources (e.g., articles, projects, documents)
• Resource-based roles: Assign roles to users for specific resources
• Polymorphic relationships: Works with any Eloquent model as a resource
• Seamless integration: Works alongside Spatie's existing permission system
• Full Spatie compatibility: Uses Spatie's Permission and Role models directly

Installation

composer require fishdaa/laravel-resource-permissions

Publish Migrations

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=resource-permissions-migrations

Run Migrations

php artisan migrate

Publish Configuration (Optional)

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=resource-permissions-config

Quick Start

1. Add Trait to User Model

use Fishdaa\LaravelResourcePermissions\Traits\HasResourcePermissions;
use Spatie\Permission\Traits\HasRoles;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasRoles; // Spatie's trait
    use HasResourcePermissions; // Resource permissions trait
}

2. Use Resource Permissions

$user = User::find(1);
$article = Article::find(1);

// Give permission for a specific resource
$user->givePermissionToResource('edit-article', $article);

// Check permission for a resource
if ($user->hasPermissionForResource('edit-article', $article)) {
    // User can edit this article
}

// Assign role for a resource
$user->assignRoleToResource('article-editor', $article);

// Get all permissions for a resource
$permissions = $user->getPermissionsForResource($article);
