We just need to create roles and permissions to synchronize with the user, so we can set what roles can perform a function or what permissions are allowed to perform a function.

Previously if we were going to create a seeder for the permission name like this: //user permission View | Create | Edit | Delete => USER Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘view user’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘create user’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘edit user’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘update user’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘delete user’]); //user permisson View | Create | Edit | Delete => ROLE Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘view role’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘create role’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘edit role’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘update role’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘delete role’]); //user permisson View | Create | Edit | Delete => PERMISSION Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘view permission’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘create permission’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘edit permission’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘update permission’]); Permission::create([‘name’ => ‘delete permission’]); Then we will replace it with a function like this, First, we retrieve data from the route in our application with this command : $routeCollection = Route::getRoutes()->get(); https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--KYl6vWmM--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/y5kn2vzafn85t6i2h1kz.png

The overall code is as follows : $routeCollection = Route::getRoutes()->get(); foreach ($routeCollection as $item) { $name = $item->action; if(!empty($name[‘as’])) { $permission = $name[‘as’]; $permission = trim(strtolower($permission)); $permission = preg_replace(‘/[\s.,-]+/’, ‘ ‘, $permission); Permission::create([ ‘name’ => $permission ]); }}
