Consider Policies

If you find that your controllers are performing too much authorization logic, you might consider policy objects. This allows you to assign a name to important (possibly complex) authorization logic that can reused anywhere. Or, in other words, if you make five different verifications to determine if a member may be added to a team, why not instead reference an AddTeamMemberPolicy object? Let's review two different ways to accomplish this, first using a simple class, and then leveraging Laravel's built-in policy functionality. Review the source for this lesson on GitHub.
