Working with Users
use Modules\User\Models\User;
// Get all users
$users = User::all();
// Find by email
$user = User::where('email', 'john@laracorekit.com')->first();
// Update profile
$user->update(['name' => 'John Doe', 'bio' => 'Laravel developer']);Roles
Roles are managed via Spatie Laravel Permission. Users can have multiple roles.
// Assign a role
$user->assignRole('editor');
// Check role
$user->hasRole('admin');
// Get all roles
$user->roles;Avatars
Profile pictures are stored via Spatie MediaLibrary:
// Upload avatar
$user->addMediaFromRequest('avatar')->toMediaCollection('avatars');
// Get avatar URL
$avatarUrl = $user->getFirstMediaUrl('avatars');In Blade:
<img src="{{ $user->getFirstMediaUrl('avatars') ?: '/images/default-avatar.png' }}" alt="{{ $user->name }}">Admin Management
Users are managed at /admin/users in the Filament admin panel:
