Checking User's Eligibility for a Specific Action ​

In this section, we'll explore how to determine if a user is eligible to perform a specific action based on their subscription plan using the checkEligibility method.

Usage ​

The checkEligibility method allows you to check if the user is eligible to perform a specific action based on their subscription plan's configured eligibility limits. Here's an example of how to use it:

$user = auth()->user();

// Check if the user is eligible to create a new project
$isEligibleToCreateProject = $user->checkEligibility('max_project');

$user = auth()->user();

// Check if the user is eligible to create a new project
$isEligibleToCreateProject = $user->checkEligibility('max_project');

Explanation ​

The code above get the current authenticated user and then checks if they are eligible to create a new project using the checkEligibility method. It returns true if the user is eligible, and false if they are not.

Parameters ​

$eligibilityKey: The key of the eligibility to check eligibility for. $userCreated: The user's count for the specific eligibility limit (default is 0).

Result ​

After running the code, the $isEligibleToCreateProject variable will be true if the user is eligible to create a new project, and false if they are not.

Note: This method is particularly useful for controlling specific actions based on the user's subscription plan.
