If you want to quickly add authentication and authorization to Laravel projects, feel free to check Auth0's Laravel SDK and free plan at https://auth0.com/overview. |
This package allows you to manage user permissions and roles in a database.
Once installed you can do stuff like this:
// Adding permissions to a user
$user->givePermissionTo('edit articles');
// Adding permissions via a role
$user->assignRole('writer');
$role->givePermissionTo('edit articles');
Because all permissions will be registered on Laravel's gate, you can check if a user has a permission with Laravel's default can
function:
$user->can('edit articles');
See the documentation site for detailed installation and usage instructions.

Special thanks to Alex Vanderbist who greatly helped with v2
, and to Chris Brown for his longtime support helping us maintain the package.
- Povilas Korop did an excellent job listing the alternatives in an article on Laravel News. In that same article, he compares laravel-permission to Joseph Silber's Bouncer, which in our book is also an excellent package.
- ultraware/roles takes a slightly different approach to its features.
- santigarcor/laratrust implements team support
- zizaco/entrust offers some wildcard pattern matching
