How do I add If-Else and Query to database?

Hi, I am planning to build a simple website that has 3 types of account, Admin, Seller, and Buyer.

I created a different row like, 'Firstname', 'Lastname' ,'Email', and 'Role'
Under 'Role' it has 3 types, admin, seller, and buyer
How can I code this in HomeController? My logic is to query the database: If the user have 'Seller' in Role Row, then he will be redirected to Seller Page only and cant access other pages.

You probably want to filter the HTTP requests entering your application.

So create a route group and assign a middleware that will redirect users based on their role, and inside that group you can protect your routes from a specific role in the same way.

You can also use this. Can work just like middleware. https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/authorization
