Laravel 5.5 change unauthenticated login redirect url
But in Laravel 5.5 this has been moved to this location vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Exceptions/Handler.php so how can I change it now? I don't want to change stuff in the vendor directory encase it gets overridden by composer updates.
We need to just include the use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;
and then it works as in laravel 5.4
Here's how I solved it. In render function I caught exception class. And in case if it's Authentication exception class I wrote my code for redirect (the code I would write in unauthenticated function in previous version).
public function render($request, Exception $exception)
{
$class = get_class($exception);
switch($class) {
case 'Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException':
$guard = array_get($exception->guards(), 0);
switch ($guard) {
case 'admin':
$login = 'admin.login';
break;
default:
$login = 'login';
break;
}
return redirect()->route($login);
}
return parent::render($request, $exception);
}

It's just the case that the function is not there by default anymore.
You can just override it as you did in 5.4. Just make sure to include
use Exception;
use Request;
use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;
use Response;
in the Handler file.
For Example my app/Exceptions/Handler.php
looks somewhat like this:
<?php
namespace App\Exceptions;
use Exception;
use Request;
use Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException;
use Response;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Exceptions\Handler as ExceptionHandler;
class Handler extends ExceptionHandler
{
(...) // The dfault file content
/**
* Convert an authentication exception into a response.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @param \Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException $exception
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
protected function unauthenticated($request, AuthenticationException $exception)
{
return $request->expectsJson()
? response()->json(['message' => 'Unauthenticated.'], 401)
: redirect()->guest(route('authentication.index'));
}
}
