Sprobe Laravel Basic ACL
========================

[](#sprobe-laravel-basic-acl)

Simple Laravel ACL implementation using groups and permissions.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install this package by running this command:

```
composer require sprobe/acl

```

After running composer install, add the following line to your `config/app.php` file

```
'providers' => [
    ...
    ...

    // load the acl service provider
    Sprobe\Acl\SprobeAclServiceProvider::class,
]

```

How to Use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

First run the migration to create the database tables needed:

```
php artisan migrate

```

Create a group via artisan command:

```
php artisan acl:make-group Administrator

```

Then create a resource via artisan command:

```
php artisan acl:make-resource users

```

Note that the resource should match your route

```
Route::post('users', 'UserController@create');

```

Then create the Read and Write permissions via artisan command:

```
php artisan acl:make-permission Write
php artisan acl:make-permission Read

```

Add the following `Permissible` trait to your user model `app\Models\User.php`

```
...
use Sprobe\Acl\Traits\Permissible;

class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail
{
    use HasApiTokens, Notifiable, Permissible;
...

```

You can assign the user to a group on your controller/service/repository

```
$user = App\Models\User::find(1);
$user->assignToGroup('Administrator');

```

Then you can give the group permission to that resource:

```
$group = Sprobe\Acl\Models\Group::findByName('Administrator');
$group->givePermissionToResource('users', true); // set second param to true if you want to give Write permission, false if read-only

```

You can activate the ACL by declaring it on your controller e.g `UserController.php`:

```
public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();

    // enable api middleware
    $this->middleware('acl');
}

```

or directly on your routes:

```
Route::get('users', 'UserController@index')->middleware('acl');

```
