v2.3.0

• [Bug] fix two missing methods identified in #31. Methods were previously removed, but documentation was not updated. Methods have been returned.
• [Improvement] Added support for PHP 8.4 and Laravel 12.
• [Improvement] Updated NPM dependencies to address potential vulnerabilities
• [Change] Removed styleci in favour of Laravel Pint.

v2.2.5

This is a really, really, really tiny release, just to update the JS dependencies.

• Updated typescript dependency to ^4.9.0.
• Updated mocha dependency to ^10.1.0.

v2.2.4

Added some syntactic sugar with a has method on the UserCollection class. It's really just an alias for anyHave.

v2.2.3

Added a describe method to the User class.

v2.2.2

Support for versions of Laravel > 8.

v2.2.1

Updated dependencies to get round a vulnerability in nanoid versions less than 3.1.31. Nanoid is a dependency of Mocha which is used for testing the simple JavaScript component we added.

Other dependencies have been upgraded as well.

v2.2.0

This only updates there JavaScript library. Just a little more logical, I think.

• Slight breaking change in the JavaScript helper. The constructor will now only accept a permissions array or JSON encoded string.
• You don't need to pass a whole user object into the Deadbolt() constructor.

v2.1.0

This release includes something a little different. Deadbolt was initially started so I could easily test permissions in a JavaScript front-end. That requirement hasn't really changed, so I've added a simple JavaScript class which can be used to test for permissions on the front-end.

It's really simple and doesn't do anything magical, but it's handy and means you don't have to do this yourself.

You can use it like this:

import Deadbolt from '../../vendor/thepublicgood/deadbolt/dist/Deadbolt.js';

const permissions = new Deadbolt(user);    // the `user` object from your laravel app.

const can = permissions.has('articles.create');

There's more info in the README.

This release also includes some clean-ups around the tests and a bug that pops up when using the HasPermissions trait.

v2.0.2

This minor release fixes a bug in the composer.json file which caused a problem when attempting to use the Deadbolt alias. This should fix #22.

v2.0.1

Ensure that the permissions column added to the users table is nullable. Fixes #21.
