##Creating roles and permissions with Artisan Commands
------------------------------------------------------
You can create a role or permission from the console with artisan commands.
```php
php artisan permission:create-role writer
```
```php
php artisan permission:create-permission "edit articles"
```
When creating permissions/roles for specific guards you can specify the guard names as a second argument:
```php
php artisan permission:create-role writer web
```
```php
php artisan permission:create-permission "edit articles" web
```
When creating roles you can also create and link permissions at the same time:
```php
php artisan permission:create-role writer web "create articles|edit articles"
```
When creating roles with teams enabled you can set the team id by adding the `--team-id` parameter:
```php
php artisan permission:create-role --team-id=1 writer
php artisan permission:create-role writer api --team-id=1
```
##Displaying roles and permissions in the console
-------------------------------------------------
There is also a `show` command to show a table of roles and permissions per guard:
```php
php artisan permission:show
```
##Resetting the Cache
---------------------
When you use the built-in functions for manipulating roles and permissions, the cache is automatically reset for you, and relations are automatically reloaded for the current model record.
See the Advanced-Usage/Cache section of these docs for detailed specifics.
If you need to manually reset the cache for this package, you may use the following artisan command:
```php
php artisan permission:cache-reset
```
Again, it is more efficient to use the API provided by this package, instead of manually clearing the cache.
