# Permission

Create a Permission model inside app/Permission.php using the following example:

<?php

namespace App;

use Laratrust\Models\LaratrustPermission;

class Permission extends LaratrustPermission
{
}

The Permission model has the same three attributes as the Role:

• name — Unique name for the permission, used for looking up permission information in the application layer. For example: "create-post", "edit-user", "post-payment", "mailing-list-subscribe".
• display_name — Human readable name for the permission. Not necessarily unique and optional. For example "Create Posts", "Edit Users", "Post Payments", "Subscribe to mailing list".
• description — A more detailed explanation of the Permission.

In general, it may be helpful to think of the last two attributes in the form of a sentence: "The permission display_name allows a user to description."
