Get roles and permissions on /User route

[loxK]

Hello,

I made an app with a separate front end UI using VueJS and the Laravel Breeze Api as backend. I followed the documentation and implemented laravel-permissions.

Upon login the frontend gets user information using this route:

Route::middleware(['auth:sanctum'])->get('/user', function (Request $request) {
    return $request->user();
});

What I want is that the returned object also includes user's role and permissions, without an additional route to call.
How am I supposed to do it ?

I found that I can do this, if there is a better way to do it, tell me please:

Route::middleware(['auth:sanctum'])->get('/user', function (Request $request) {

    return [
        'user' => $request->user(),
        'roles' => $request->user()->getRoleNames(),
        'permissions' => $request->user()->getAllPermissions(),
    ];

});
