After Installation

Configuration Files

Set the proper values in the config/auth.php. These values will be used by laratrust to refer to the user model.

You can also publish the configuration for this package to further customize table names and model namespaces.

Use php artisan vendor:publish, the laratrust.php and laratrust_seeder.php files will be created in your app/config directory.

Automatic setup (Recommended)

If you want to let laratrust to setup by itselft, just run the following command:

php artisan laratrust:setup

This command will generate the migrations, create the Role and Permission models and will add the trait to the User model.

Note

The user trait will be added to the Model configured in the auth.php file.

And then do not forget to run:

composer dump-autoload

Important

If you did the steps above you are done with the configuration, if not, please read and follow the whole configuration process

Migrations

Now generate the Laratrust migration:

php artisan laratrust:migration

It will generate the <timestamp>_laratrust_setup_tables.php migration. You may now run it with the artisan migrate command:

php artisan migrate

After the migration, four new tables will be present:

• roles — stores role records
• permissions — stores permission records
• role_user — stores many-to-many relations between roles and users
• permission_role — stores many-to-many relations between roles and permissions
