Admin users?

[AlphaJack]

Why is there a command php artisan monica:admin, if there isn't any admin interface? Is this a planned feature?
Is there a way to add or delete user accounts without manually editing the database?

You can add a user as instance admin with the following command:

...@...:/var/www/monica# php artisan monica:admin

 What is the user’s email?:
 > my@e.mail

my@e.mail will be added to the administrators of this instance

 Do you wish to continue? (yes/no) [no]:
 > yes

my@e.mail has been added to the administrators of this instance

but I do not notice any difference between with and without admin privileges.

There are only two files which reads or writes the admin status:

• (It looks like a login check skip?)

  monica/app/Providers/DAVServiceProvider.php

  Lines 46 to 49 in 657d824

  	if ($request->user()->admin ||
  	config('laravelsabre.users') == null) {
  	return true;
  	}

• (The php arthisan command)

  monica/app/Console/Commands/SetUserAdmin.php

  Lines 51 to 72 in 657d824

  	// Print a warning
  	if ($user->admin) {
  	$this->warn($user->email.' will be removed from the administrators of this instance');
  	} else {
  	$this->warn($user->email.' will be added to the administrators of this instance');
  	}
  	// ask for confirmation if not forced
  	if (! $this->option('force') && ! $this->confirm('Do you wish to continue?')) {
  	return;
  	}
  	// toglle admin status
  	$user->admin = ! $user->admin;
  	$user->save();
  	// Show new status
  	if ($user->admin) {
  	$this->info($user->email.' has been added to the administrators of this instance');
  	} else {
  	$this->info($user->email.' has been removed from the administrators of this instance');
  	}

The goal of this command is to have and admin panel (see #1876 ) which is not available yet.
