Get Started

Everything within the Laravel Bakery is easily managed within a configuration file. Each model is defined within this configuration. Configurations then cascade, where specified the specific HTTP Method / model combination will be used, then the specified model, then global overall, example below. Where possible full control has been handed over to configuration, so that the Bakery can work exactly how you want.

Example Configuration Cascade

The following is an example of the configuration cascade, however this example does not include the security policies.

// First try to find
bakery.models.users.post.security.gate

// If the above cannot be found
bakery.models.users.security.gate

// If the above cannot be found
bakery.security.gate
