Installation

You can install the package in to a Laravel app that uses Nova via composer:

Publish the Migration with the following command:

Migrate the Database:

Next up, you must register the tool with Nova. This is typically done in the tools method of the NovaServiceProvider.

If you want to hide the tool from certain users, you can write your custom logic for the ability to see the tool:

Finally, add MorphToMany fields to your app/Nova/User resource:

Add the Spatie\Permission\Traits\HasRoles trait to your User model(s):

A new menu item called Roles & Permissions will appear in your Nova app after installing this package.

Database Seeding

Publish our Seeder with the following command:

This is just an example on how you could seed your Database with Roles and Permissions. Modify RolesAndPermissionsSeeder.php in database/seeders. List all your Models you want to have Permissions for in the $collection Array and change the email for the Super-Admin:

Now you can seed the Database. Add $this->call(RolesAndPermissionsSeeder::class); to the DatabaseSeeder.

Note: If this doesn't work, run composer dumpautoload to autoload the Seeder.

Create a Model Policy

You can extend Sereny\NovaPermissions\Policies\BasePolicy and have a very clean Model Policy that works with Nova.

For Example: Create a new Contact Policy with php artisan make:policy ContactPolicy with the following code:

It should now work as exptected. Just create a Role, modify its Permissions and the Policy should take care of the rest.

Note: Don't forget to add your Policy to your $policies in App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider.

Note: Only extend the Policy if you have created your Permissions according to our Seeding Example. Otherwise, make sure to have viewAnyContact, viewContact, createContact, updateContact, deleteContact, restoreContact, destroyContact as Permissions in your Table in order to extend our Policy.

Super Admin

A Super Admin can do everything. If you extend our Policy, make sure to add a isSuperAdmin() Function to your App\User Model:

Customizations

Important

To customize the Role model you need to use Sereny\NovaPermissions\Traits\SupportsRole trait:
