@role Blade Directive For Laravel Spark

Assumes you're using teams

Add this to the boot() method of your AppServiceProvider

\Blade::directive('role', function($roles) {

        $user = auth()->user();

        $userRole = $user->roleOn($user->currentTeam);

        return "<?php if((is_array(with{$roles})) ? in_array('$userRole', with{$roles}) : with{$roles} == '$userRole') : ?>";
});

\Blade::directive('endrole', function() {

        return "<?php endif; ?>";
});

And use like so

@role('owner')
    <h1>Owner</h1>
@endrole

@role('member')
    <h1>Member</h1>
@endrole

Can also pass an array of multiple roles

@role(['member', 'owner'])
    <h1>Member or Owner</h1>
@endrole

@dillinghamio that's great for the array! I tried myself with the in_array() method and couldn't get it to work ;-) I love your solution better!

For L5.3 the return line needs to change to the following:

return "<?php if((is_array(with({$roles}))) ? in_array('$userRole', with({$roles})) : with({$roles}) == '$userRole') : ?>";

And in case anyone is wondering why they probably aren't seeing what they would expect when they switch users to one of a different role (i.e., masquerading or "becoming" another user, tests failing randomly, etc), it's because custom directives are cached and since there's a conditional involved in the directive, you'll have to php artisan view:clear it somehow. This means although the directive is great, it may not be the best choice of implementation depending on what you're trying to accomplish.
