So, I'm trying to implement Sentry 2 with Laravel 4.1. I'm using this resource for it
https://github.com/rydurham/L4withSentry
Everything works fine, but now I want to assign user to a group automatically when he registers.
From Sentry 2 Docs,
// Find the group using the group id $adminGroup = Sentry::findGroupById(5); // Assign the group to the user $user->addGroup($adminGroup); Should work. So I added this lines of code to Authority\Repo\User\SentryUser.php
Now the code looks like
try { //Attempt to register the user. $user = $this->sentry->register(array( 'username' => e($data['username']), 'email' => e($data['email']), 'password' => e($data['password']) )); // Find the group using the group id $adminGroup = Sentry::findGroupById(5); // Assign the group to the user $user->addGroup($adminGroup); //success! $result['success'] = true; $result['message'] = trans('users.created'); $result['mailData']['activationCode'] = $user->GetActivationCode(); $result['mailData']['userId'] = $user->getId(); $result['mailData']['email'] = e($data['email']); } But this throws in an error
Non-static method Cartalyst\Sentry\Sentry::findGroupById() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context Can anyone shed a light and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in Advance

Somehow, where you are using Sentry, you're not using its Facade, but the class itself. When you call a class through a Facade you're not really using statics, it's just looks like you are.
Do you have this:
use Cartalyst\Sentry\Sentry; In your code?
Ok, but if this line is working for you:
$user = $this->sentry->register(array( 'username' => e($data['username']), 'email' => e($data['email']), 'password' => e($data['password']) )); So you already have it instantiated and you can surely do:
$adminGroup = $this->sentry->findGroupById(5); Source: Stackoverflow.com
