Laravel 5.8 Custom Login

Hello buddies  ,

                Coming back after the long gap , here i am providing details for how to create a custom login in latest laravel 5.8 .

After installing your project , Create a auth using artisan commands . Here i am giving example for admin prefix routs

Model : User.Php

<?php 

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;

use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;

use Laravel\Passport\HasApiTokens;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;

class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail

{

    use HasApiTokens, Notifiable;


    protected $fillable = [

        'name', 'email', 'password',

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

?>


Routes.Php

Route::prefix('/admin')->group(function () {

    Route::get('users/login', 'ADMIN\UsersController@login');
    Route::get('users/logout', 'ADMIN\UsersController@logout');
    Route::get('users/dashboard', 'ADMIN\UsersController@dashboard');
    Route::post('users/login', ['as'=>'users/login','uses'=>'ADMIN\UsersController@loginPost']);

 });



Http/Controller/ADMIN/UsersController.php


<?php


namespace App\Http\Controllers\ADMIN;

use App\User;

use Validator;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Input;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;

class UsersController extends Controller
{

    use AuthenticatesUsers;

    public function __construct()
    {
         // $this->middleware('auth', ['except' => ['dashboard']]);

         // $this->middleware('auth',['except' => ['login','loginPost']]);

         $this->middleware('auth', ['only' => ['dashboard']]);
    }


     protected $redirectAfterLogout = 'admin/users/login';
     protected $loginRedirect = 'admin/users/dashboard';

    public function login()
    {
        if (Auth::check())
        {
            return redirect('admin/users/dashboard');
        }
       return view('admin/users/login');
    }


    public function loginPost(Request $request)

    {

        $this->validate($request, [

            'email' => 'required|email',

            'password' => 'required',

        ]);


        if (auth()->attempt(['email' => $request->input('email'), 'password' => $request->input('password')]))

        {
             $user = auth()->user();
             return redirect(property_exists($this, 'loginRedirect') ? $this->loginRedirect : '/')->with('success','Logged in successfully');

        }else{
            return back()->with('error','Invalid User Name and Password');

        }

    }

    public function dashboard()
    {
        return view('admin/users/dashboard');
    }


    public function logout()
    {
      Auth::logout();
      return redirect(property_exists($this, 'redirectAfterLogout') ? $this->redirectAfterLogout : '/')->with('success','Logged out successfully');
    }
}
?>


In this controller i have created a login method and login post method . After login it will directs to dashboard page .



App/Http/Middleware/Authenticate.php


Overwrite this method

protected function redirectTo($request)
    {
        if (! $request->expectsJson()) {
            Session::flash('error', 'You are not authorised to access this page. please login here');
            return url('admin/users/login');
        }
    }

Also on the top paste this : Use Session .


Hope its easy to create blade files using this controller . hope you enjoyed this tutorial .
