Adding Controllers

##Controller You can put controller wherever you like. However, you must make sure that the class can be autoloaded by Composer. Let's put our controller in app/controllers.

<?php
// app/controllers/AdminPostsController
use Stevemo\Cpanel\Controllers\BaseController;

class AdminPostsController extends BaseController {

    public function index()
    {
        //app/views/post/admin/index
        return View::make('post.admin.index');
    }

}

In app/routes.php we will add the new route and apply the auth.cpanel filter. For more info on filter visit https://github.com/stevemo/cpanel/wiki/Routes,-Permissions-and-Filter

Route::get('admin/post', array(
    'as'     => 'admin.post.index',
    'uses'   => 'AdminPostsController@index',
    'before' => 'auth.cpanel:post.view'
));

Finally open the Cpanel config file located at app/config/packages/stevemo/cpanel/config.php. If this file do not exist you need to publish the package config file by running php artisan config:publish stevemo/cpanel. We will add a new item to the menu array.

'menu' => array(
        'Dashboard' => array('type' => 'single', 'route' => 'admin.home'),
        'Users'     => array('type' => 'dropdown', 'links' => array(
            'Manage Users' => array('route' => 'admin.users.index'),
            'Groups'       => array('route' => 'admin.groups.index'),
            'Permissions'  => array('route' => 'admin.permissions.index')
        )),
        'Posts' => array('type' => 'single', 'route' => 'admin.posts.index'),
    ),

login to your site admin section and you should see "Posts" link in the menu bar. That's it you have access to your controller in the admin section.
