Big Integer migrations for User role permissions in Laravel 5.8

[grimlock591]

If you run the script to publish the migrations and later run the migrations you get an error because Laravel 5.8 uses big integer instead of Integer for its user table migrations.

Try to replace the function up() in the migration with this:
`public function up()
{
DB::beginTransaction();

    // Create table for storing roles
    Schema::create('roles', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->bigIncrements('id');
        $table->string('name')->unique();
        $table->string('display_name')->nullable();
        $table->string('description')->nullable();
        $table->timestamps();
    });

    // Create table for associating roles to users (Many-to-Many)
    Schema::create('role_user', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->bigInteger('user_id')->unsigned();
        $table->bigInteger('role_id')->unsigned();

        $table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users')
            ->onUpdate('cascade')->onDelete('cascade');
        $table->foreign('role_id')->references('id')->on('roles')
            ->onUpdate('cascade')->onDelete('cascade');

        $table->primary(['user_id', 'role_id']);
    });

    // Create table for storing permissions
    Schema::create('permissions', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->bigIncrements('id');
        $table->string('name')->unique();
        $table->string('display_name')->nullable();
        $table->string('description')->nullable();
        $table->timestamps();
    });

    // Create table for associating permissions to roles (Many-to-Many)
    Schema::create('permission_role', function (Blueprint $table) {
        $table->bigInteger('permission_id')->unsigned();
        $table->bigInteger('role_id')->unsigned();

        $table->foreign('permission_id')->references('id')->on('permissions')
            ->onUpdate('cascade')->onDelete('cascade');
        $table->foreign('role_id')->references('id')->on('roles')
            ->onUpdate('cascade')->onDelete('cascade');

        $table->primary(['permission_id', 'role_id']);
    });

    DB::commit();
}

`
It works for me.
