The Laravel framework utilizes Composer for installation and dependency management. If you haven't already, start by installing Composer.

The easiest way to play with Authority-Controller, is to git clone this Laravel 5.1 demo application:

git clone https://github.com/efficiently/laravel_authority-controller_app && cd laravel_authority-controller_app/

Then inside the application's root, run these commands:

composer install
php artisan serve

In your Web browser, go to this URL: http://localhost:8000/users

You should see an AccessDenied exception.

With this error message: You are not authorized to access this page..

Go to: http://localhost:8000/auth/login

Fill the login form with [email protected] and password then click on the Login button.

You should see: You are logged in!.

Then go back to: http://localhost:8000/users

You should see: Administrator.

Congratulations, You have the basics to use AuthorityController!
