Guardian
========

[](#guardian)

Guardian is a simple permissions and roles package for Laravel that provides permissions, roles and easily configurable access inheritence.

Installing Guardian
-------------------

[](#installing-guardian)

### Require Guardian via Composer

[](#require-guardian-via-composer)

Installation is a cinch; Simply require Guardian through Composer to pull the package into your project.

```
composer require michaelcooke/guardian

```

### Run Migrations

[](#run-migrations)

Then, run Guardian's migrations via Artisan.

```
php artisan migrate

```

### Configure App User Model

[](#configure-app-user-model)

Finally, configure Laravel to use Guardian's User model by editting the users provider configuration array in the `config/auth.php`.

```
'providers' => [
    'users' => [
        'driver' => 'eloquent',
        'model' => MichaelCooke\Guardian\User::class,
    ],

```

### Extend Guardian User Model

[](#extend-guardian-user-model)

Instead of configuring Laravel to use Guardian's User model directly, you may alternatively extend Guardian's User model in `app/User.php` to make use of Guardian while being able to add custom relationships and attributes to your User model for your app's specific needs.
