Quick Samples

On a Model

The example below explains how to use the package on a model after installation.

use App\Enums\Role;
use App\Enums\Permission;

// Assign a 'Super Admin' role to this user
$user->assign(Role::SuperAdmin);

// Check if the user has the role
$user->hasRole(Role::SuperAdmin);
// Or 
$user->isSuperAdmin(); // returns true

// Check if the user can perform a operation
$user->can(Permission::DeleteTransactions); 
// Or 
$user->canDeleteTransactions(); 

// Check if the user has multiple permissions
$user->holds(Permission::DeleteTransactions, Permission::BlockUsers);

Pivot table (many to many relationship)

This demonstrates how to use the package on a many to many relationship. In this example, we assume we have a merchant relationship in our User model. And this relationship returns an instance of Laravel's BelongsToMany class.

Import the App\Enums\Role and App\Enums\Permission class.

use App\Enums\Role;
use App\Enums\Permission;

// Sample merchant
$merchant = Merchant::where('name', 'wallmart')->first();

// Assign a 'Super Admin' role to this user on the selected merchant (wallmart)
$user->of($merchant)->assign(Role::SuperAdmin);

// Check if the user has a super admin role on the selected merchant (wallmart)
$user->of($merchant)->hasRole(Role::SuperAdmin);

// Check if the user can 'delete transactions' on the selected merchant (wallmart)
$user->of($merchant)->can(Permission::DeleteTransactions);

// Check if the user has multiple permissions on the selected merchant (wallmart)
$user->of($merchant)->holds(Permission::DeleteTransactions, Permission::BlockUsers);

We used the user model to make the example explanatory, similar to the examples above the package will work on any model class.

Requirements

  • PHP 8.0 or higher
  • Laravel 8.0 or higher
  • Upon installation, the package publishes a config/roles-and-permissions.php file, ensure you do not have a file with the same name in your config directory.

Pros

  • The package can be used on any model, i.e any model can be assigned roles, and permissions.
  • Roles can be given multiple permissions.
  • Models have permissions via roles.
  • Models can be assigned multiple roles.
  • A many to many relationship can be assigned roles. (i.e the package can be used on a pivot table).
  • Supports role hierarchy. (A higher level role can be configured to have the permissions of lower level roles).

Crons

  • Permissions cannot be assigned directly on a many to many relationship.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require ajimoti/roles-and-permissions

If you have existing pivot tables that you want to apply the package on, you can add the table names to the pivot.tables array in the config/roles-and-permissions.php config file. The command below will add a role column to every pivot table provided in the array.

Run the command below, then you are set to use the package.

php artisan roles:install
