Why not just make another blade directive for role?
@role('manager')
// users with manager role can access this area....
@endrole

@can('role') condition based on Roles instead of permissions
I followed this (https://laracasts.com/series/whats-new-in-laravel-5-1/episodes/16), tutorial and built a user authorization system.
in blade template file, how can I set a condition for a role name or id instead of a permission name. (i have a lot of permissions, but only 5 user roles, easier for me to build my pages according to roles names or ids).
@can('manager') //users with manager role can access this area.... @endcan
How do I register a policy for that?
Currently, the system works when I specify @can condition with a permission name.
Thanks.

Add this to your appserviceprovider boot() to only show the contents to the user if the are logged in and they have a role
Blade::if('role', function ($name) {
return auth()->check() && auth()-user()->hasRole($name);
});
You will need to implement hasRole($name) on your user model to fit your needs
You can then use this in your views
@role('manager')
// manager view specifics
@endrole

thanks guys , that worked out great!
If I wanted to give access to multiple roles for that same section, how can I set that up through blade ? Or should I be setting up a middleware for routes?

You could pass an array of roles to the directive then in you has role function
public function hasRole($names) {
return collect($names)->intersect($this->roles)->count();
}
Then in the view
@role(['manager','admin'])
Tweak as needed ?
