How to define a policy method with no argument in Laravel 5.2?
If a policy method has been defined with no arguments like this:
class PostPolicy{ use HandlesAuthorization; /** * Determine if the user can create a new post. * * @param \App\User $user * @return bool */ public function create(User $user) { return $user->is_admin; }}You may use the authorize method like this:
class PostController extends Controller{ /** * Show the form for creating a new post. * * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response */ public function create() { $this->authorize('create', \App\Post::class); //... }}and within blade templates by using the @can Blade directive:
@can('create', \App\Post::class) <!-- The Current User Can Update The Post -->@endcanIt's also possible to use Gate facade, the User model or the policy helper.
