Example 1: laravel token authentication
// add api_token to users table
Schema::table('users', function ($table) {
$table->string('api_token', 80)->after('password')
->unique()
->nullable()
->default(null);
});
// Create token for existing users, code can also be added to registerController
$token = Str::random(60);
$user = User::find(1);
$user->api_token = hash('sha256', $token); // <- This will be used in client access
$user->save();
//config/auth.php
'guards' => [
'web' => [
'driver' => 'session',
'provider' => 'users',
],
'api' => [
'driver' => 'token', // <- Add this entry
'provider' => 'users',
'hash' => false,
],
],
//routes/api.php
// Add "middleware('auth:api')" as below
Route::middleware('auth:api')->get('/user', function (Request $request) {
return $request->user();
});
//client access example (in Vue js)
axios.get('http://example.com/api/user',
{
headers: {
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer '+ 'user-api-token'
}
