## Register the Roles Service Provider
Add the package to your application service providers in `config/app.php` file.
```php
'providers' => [
/*
* Laravel Framework Service Providers...
*/
Illuminate\Foundation\Providers\ArtisanServiceProvider::class,
Illuminate\Auth\AuthServiceProvider::class,
...
/**
* Package Service Providers...
*/
HttpOz\Roles\RolesServiceProvider::class,
],
```
## Publish Config File And Migrations
Optimize Application
php artisan optimize
Publish the package config file and migrations to your application. Run this command inside your terminal.
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="HttpOz\Roles\RolesServiceProvider"
And also run migrations.
php artisan migrate
> This uses the default users table which is in Laravel. You should already have the migration file for the users table available and migrated.
## Enable HasRole Trait And Contract
Include `HasRole` trait and also implement `HasRole` contract inside your `User` model.
```php
use HttpOz\Roles\Traits\HasRole;
use HttpOz\Roles\Contracts\HasRole as HasRoleContract;
class User extends Authenticatable implements HasRoleContract
{
use Notifiable, HasRole;
```
And that's it!
## Config File
You can change connection for models, slug separator, models path and there is also a handy pretend feature. Have a look at config file for more information.
### Caching
The configuration for cache expiry is defaulted to 2 weeks (in minutes). You can update this value to suit your project specific needs.
