Larallow is a Permissions Package With Support for Scopes

Larallow for Laravel is a package for handling roles and permissions with advanced features such as scoped roles, polymorphic relations, translation support, and more. This package helps you manage permission tasks such as creating permissions, assigning/removing them from users, and finally checking those capabilities in your app.

Using this package, you can allow users permissions directly using the allow() method. You can assign permissions to users through a role, as you'd expect in a permissions package:

use App\Models\User;
use App\Enums\Permissions\UserPermission;
 
$user = User::find(1);
 
// Using enum
$user->allow(UserPermission::ViewClients);
 
// Or using string
$user->allow('edit_post');
 
// Assign a role to a user
$role = Role::find($roleId);
$user->assignRole($role);

On the other side of assigning permissions to users, this package provides the ability to create permissions and even group them:

use EduLazaro\Larallow\Permission;
 
// Simple permission creation
Permission::create('manage_offices')->label('Manage Offices');
 
// Create a permission for many types:
Permission::create('manage_offices')
    ->for([User::class, Client::class])
    ->label('Manage Offices');
 
// Scope a permission
Permission::create('manage_clients')
    ->for(User::class)
    ->on(Office::class)
    ->label('Manage Clients');
 
// Translate a permission
Permission::create([
    UserPermission::ManageOffices->value => __('Manage offices'),
])->for(User::class)
  ->on(Group::class);
 
Permission::create([
    UserPermission::ManageClients->value => 'Manage clients',
    UserPermission::ManageProperties->value => 'Manage properties',
    UserPermission::ManageDevelopments->value => 'Manage developments',
    UserPermission::ManageAppointments->value => 'Manage appointments',
    UserPermission::ManageUsers->value => 'Manage users',
])->for(User::class)
  ->on([
      Office::class,
      Group::class,
  ]);

This package provides various ways to check permissions for an actor and role:

// Check a role
$user->hasRole('admin');
 
// Scoped role
$user->hasRole('admin', $scopedModel);
 
// Check if the actor has at least one of the roles
$hasRole = Roles::query()
    ->roles($roleOrRoleIds)
    ->for($actor)
    ->on($scopeModel)  // Optional scope
    ->check();
 
// Check if the actor has all of the roles specified
$hasRole = Roles::query()
    ->roles($roleOrRoleIds)
    ->for($actor)
    ->on($scopeModel)  // Optional scope
    ->checkAll();

You can check roles in Blade templates using the @roles directive to determine capabilities in your views:

@roles(['admin', 'editor'])
    <p>You have some elevated role access.</p>
@endroles
