Shinobi brings a simple and light-weight role-based permissions system to Laravel's built in Auth system. Shinobi brings support for the following ACL structure:

• Every user can have zero or more roles.
• Every role can have zero or more permissions.

Permissions are then inherited to the user through the user's assigned roles.

The package follows the FIG standards PSR-1, PSR-2, and PSR-4 to ensure a high level of interoperability between shared PHP code. At the moment the package is not unit tested, but is planned to be covered later down the road.

Begin by installing the package through Composer. The best way to do this is through your terminal via Composer itself:

composer require caffeinated/shinobi

Once this operation is complete, simply add the service provider to your project's config/app.php file and run the provided migrations against your database.

Caffeinated\Shinobi\ShinobiServiceProvider::class

You'll need to run the provided migrations against your database. Publish the migration files using the vendor:publish Artisan command and run migrate:

php artisan vendor:publish
php artisan migrate
