An example of how I did my filters.php and routes.php to populate many of the same structured routes. Used Sentry 2 for Authentication and short syntax for array() Suggestions to make it even DRYer are welcome. php artisan route output of the example http://paste.laravel.com/1cnE

// /app/filters.php
<?php

/*
 * Access filters
 */

Route::filter('hasReadAccess', function ($route, $request, $value) {
    // I used Sentry, but change it to whatever you need.
    if (! Sentry::getUser()->hasAccess($value . '.read')) App::abort(401, 'You are not authorized.');
});

Route::filter('hasWriteAccess', function ($route, $request, $value) {
    // I used Sentry, but change it to whatever you need.
    if (! Sentry::getUser()->hasAccess($value . '.write')) App::abort(401, 'You are not authorized.');
});
