A simple, elagant and straight-foward user permissions package for your Laravel applications.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require starfolksoftware/persona

You can publish and run the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="persona-migrations"
php artisan migrate

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="persona-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    'roles' => [
        // 'owner' => [
        //     'key' => 'owner',
        //     'name' => 'Owner',
        //     'permissions' => ['*'],
        // ],
    ],
];

Add the HasRole trait to your user model:

use StarfolkSoftware\Persona\HasRole;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasRole;

    // ...
}

Register your roles and permissions in the config file:

return [
    'roles' => [
        'owner' => [
            'key' => 'owner', // must be unique
            'name' => 'Owner',
            'permissions' => ['*'],
        ],
    ],
];

You can check if a user has a particular permission as in the following:

$user->hasPermission('post:edit');

Giving the permissions key the value '*' means the hasPermission(...) method will always return true.
