I want to use entrust (https://github.com/Zizaco/entrust) if possible. I am using Laravel 5.4 and install entrust. If possible an small example with explain of entrust will be helpful.

Answer 1

Step 1. After creating a project in laravel, open the composer.json and update the require object with entrust like this
"require": {
"php": ">=7.1.3",
"fideloper/proxy": "~4.0",
"laravel/framework": "5.5.*",
"laravel/tinker": "~1.0",
"tymon/jwt-auth": "1.0.0-rc.1",
"zizaco/entrust": "dev-master"
},
Then Run
composer update
Step 2. Open config/app.php and find providers array and add the following line.
Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustServiceProvider::class,
Below providers array find aliases and add the following line
'Entrust' => Zizaco\Entrust\EntrustFacade::class,
Then Run this command
php artisan vendor:publish
After this you will see a new file in config directory named entrust.php
Step 3. Open app/Http/Kernel.php and add the middleware
<?php
/**
* The application's route middleware.
*
* These middleware may be assigned to groups or used individually.
*
* #var array
*/
protected $routeMiddleware = [
....
'role' => \Zizaco\Entrust\Middleware\EntrustRole::class,
'permission' => \Zizaco\Entrust\Middleware\EntrustPermission::class,
'ability' => \Zizaco\Entrust\Middleware\EntrustAbility::class,
]; ?>
Step 4. Run This
php artisan entrust:migration
Above command will create the 4 tables roles, permissions, role_user and permission_role
Now You are ready to go
