Nova + field-level permissions

This is covered in the following lesson

https://laracasts.com/series/laravel-nova-mastery/episodes/7

@D9705996 - Thanks. Is it possible to allow certain user roles to view a field but not update it, while allowing another admin role to update it? The documentation and the nova lesson isn't so clear on that scenario.

I think you can use policies for this

https://nova.laravel.com/docs/1.0/resources/authorization.html#policies

so you could do something like if you are protecting a Post Model

    public function view(User $user, Post $post)
    {
    return in_array('view-posts', $user->permissions);
    }

    public function update(User $user, Post $post)
    {
    return in_array('update-posts', $user->permissions);
    }

You would then need to amend the policy logic to fit your application (Above Im assuming you have a many-to-many relationship between user and permissions but feel free to amend as you need.

Just remember that the policies live and are registered in your Application and not Nova. You might want to consider using Spatie's Permission package (or similar) for your roles, permission, etc
