Using conditional middleware

[mohsenbostan]

Hi, I am trying to use conditional middleware.
I have some permissions that the package will handle. and in my users table, I have a field called is_creator.
I have a route that should only be accessible by people who have the relevant permission or when the is_creator field in the database is set to true.

Would you please tell me how to handle this properly?

maybe https://spatie.be/docs/laravel-permission/v4/basic-usage/super-admin#gatebefore

So you can check

return $user->is_creator && request()->is('your_route');

It seems like a dirty way to do things, doesn't it?

[erikn69]

Yea, but it is in the docs, and make the work, but other ways to do that are more "dirty"
You can wait for another solution

Your application needs to enforce the required rules.
This package only provides responses in relation to roles/permissions that it tracks.

So, your application code can combine your own application logic (ie: test for is_creator property) and role/permission from this package (hasRole('foo')), and any other logic your application needs.
You are welcome to put that into a custom middleware if you wish.

I don't have any other options, thanks.
