How to get current user's role in Laravel 5.2 ?

[zwl1619]

User:

class User extends Model implements AuthenticatableContract, CanResetPasswordContract, HasRoleAndPermissionContract

{
    use Authenticatable, CanResetPassword, HasRoleAndPermission;

    protected $fillable = [
        'name', 'email', 'password',
    ];

    protected $hidden = [
        'password', 'remember_token',
    ];

}

Controller:

public function index()
    {
        $user = \Auth::user();
        $name=$user->name;
        $role = $user->getRoles();
      //  return view('index', compact('name','role'));
        dd($role);
    }

Result:

Collection {#370 ▼
  #items: []
}

Try this

$user = App\User::first();
$user->getRoles();

What is the output, if you add $name to the dd()?
Can you provide some information about the schema and the filled data? (Tables: user, roles, user_roles)
