This package let user decides on which package URL these routes should be registered ``` Route::multiAuthImpersonate('impersonation'); ``` Alternatively, you can execute this macro with your `RouteServiceProvider`. ``` namespace App\Providers; class RouteServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider { public function map() { // here you can supply an array of guards ex ['web','employee','etc'] so that each can impersonate other Route::middleware('web')->group(function (Router $router) { $router->multiAuthImpersonate('impersonation'); }); } } ``` ``` // Where $id is the ID of the user you want impersonate route('impersonate', $id) // You should also add `guardName` route('impersonate', ['id' => $id, 'guardName' => 'admin']) // Generate an URL to leave current impersonation route('impersonate.leave') ``` ### Defining impersonation authorization [](#defining-impersonation-authorization) By default all users can **impersonate** an user. You need to add the method `canImpersonate()` to your guard model: example: ``` class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail { use Notifiable,Impersonate; // /** // * @return bool // */ public function canImpersonate() { return true ; } } ``` By default all users can **be impersonated**. You need to add the method `canBeImpersonated()` to your guard model to extend this behavior: ``` /** * @return bool */ public function canBeImpersonated() { // For example return $this->can_be_impersonated == 1; } ``` ### Using your own strategy [](#using-your-own-strategy) - Getting the manager: ``` // With the app helper app('impersonate') // Dependency Injection public function impersonate(ImpersonateManager $manager, $user_id) { /* ... */ } ``` - Working with the manager: ``` $manager = app('impersonate'); // Find an user by its ID $manager->findUserById($id); // TRUE if your are impersonating an user. $manager->isImpersonating(); // Impersonate an user. Pass the original user and the user you want to impersonate $manager->take($from, $to); // Leave current impersonation $manager->leave(); // Get the impersonator ID $manager->getImpersonatorId(); ``` Testing ------- [](#testing) ``` composer test ``` Changelog --------- [](#changelog) Please see [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) for more information on what has changed recently.
