I wrote a very simple middleware, like this:
class CheckToken
{
private $token='xxx';
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if (! $request->tokenz == $this->token) {
return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
}
return $next($request);
}
}
Then I register it trough kernel.php, like this:
protected $routeMiddleware = [
.....
'CheckToken' => \App\Http\Middleware\CheckToken::class,
];
then Ive a very simple function in a controller guarded by this controller:
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('CheckToken');
}
public function push()
{
return view('home');
}
Now starts what is not clear to me:
how can i "protect" my page using this simple method?
I've tried to put this tag on the header of page but it seems to not works, maybe im in the wrong path:
<meta name="tokenz" content="xxx">
I put it even in the body but no results.
what ive misunderstood?
I believe you need to add the middleware call to the actual route:
use App\Http\Middleware\CheckAge;
Route::get('admin/profile', function () {
//
})->middleware(CheckAge::class);
This was extracted from the Laravel 5.7 documentation: Middleware - Assigning Middleware to Routes
sorry i can't create a comment. but just want to help.
does $request passed a tokenz?
you can use ?tokenz=blablabla
or you can change your method to get the tokenz
I have a Laravel API (actually a Lumen API) serving a VueJS front-end. The Vue app allows users to login to Google. The Google token is then sent back to the Lumen API, which verifies the token with Google, then verifies that the email address is a valid user. Then it generates a token, stores that in the DB with the user and returns the user object.
I'm not using Passport or jwt-auth or anything like that. So now, how do I go about using the default Auth middleware to verify the token header that the (now logged in) user will be returning with every request? (i.e. is the token in the DB and is it expired?). And is there a way to do this more efficiently, so Laravel caches the valid tokens and doesn't have to hit the DB for every request?
You can use the Authentication Middleware. Pass with your request an api_token. A more detailed answer can be found here.
Add a api_token column to your User table.
$table->string('api_token', 60)->unique();
Have an authentication middleware as such:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Closure;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
class Authenticate
{
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #param string|null $guard
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next, $guard = null)
{
if (Auth::guard($guard)->guest()) {
if ($request->ajax() || $request->wantsJson()) {
return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
} else {
return redirect()->guest('auth/login');
}
}
return $next($request);
}
}
And use Route Group
Route::group(['middleware' => 'auth:api'], function () {
Route::resource('api/v1/foo/bar', 'API\FooBarController');
}
I was logging request for my site, for guest users and authenticated users, but then i faced a problem that if a user is logged in and a 404 exception kick in then in that case i Auth::user() was null,
class LoggingMiddleware
{
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
return $next($request);
}
public function terminate($request, $response)
{
$info = [];
//$info = get everything i need from request and response.
$info['user_detail'] = Auth::user()->id;
var_dump(Auth::user());
dispatch(new LogRequests($info));
}
}
what i did then moved the StartSession middle ware from web group to global middle ware group. Now it is working fine. Is there any issue that can arise by moving the middleware from web group to global?
Global middleware is run every time an HTTP request is made to your application, so if the context of your LoggingMiddleware works with this in mind, then there should be no problem.
When user logs in and is authenticated, I use Auth::user()->username; to show username of user on dashboard. However, for some reason when session expires the class Auth doesn't seem to work and dashboard page throws error as trying to get property of non-object for Auth::user()->username;. How can I redirect the user back to the login page when he clicks any link or refreshes the page after the session has expired?
I tried the Authenticate.php middleware but it always redirects back to login page,whatever you put the credentials either correct or incorrect.However,when I don't use this middleware it logins the user.Am I missing something?
Route.php
<?php

| Here is where you can register all of the routes for an application.
| It's a breeze. Simply tell Laravel the URIs it should respond to

Adding Additional Routes To Resource Controllers
If it becomes necessary to add additional routes to a resource controller beyond the default resource routes, you should define those routes before your call to Route::resource:
Route::get('photos/popular', 'PhotoController#method');
Route::resource('photos', 'PhotoController');

Authenticate.php:
<?php namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Closure;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Guard;
class Authenticate {
/**
* The Guard implementation.
*
* #var Guard
*/
protected $auth;
/**
* Create a new filter instance.
*
* #param Guard $auth
* #return void
*/
public function __construct(Guard $auth)
{
$this->auth = $auth;
}
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if ($this->auth->guest())
{
if ($request->ajax())
{
return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
}
else
{
// return redirect()->guest('auth/login');
return redirect()->guest('/');
}
}
return $next($request);
}
}
All you have to do is just put this constructor at the top of the controller for your dashboard. It seems Laravel has a middleware that handles this already. At least I can confirm from 5.4 and up.
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('auth');
}
If the session expires then you can redirect to log in like as
open this file app/Exceptions/Handler.php add this code
public function render($request, Exception $exception)
{
if ($exception instanceof \Illuminate\Session\TokenMismatchException) {
return redirect('/login');
}
return parent::render($request, $exception);
}
If you want a middleware to be run during every HTTP request to your application, simply list the middleware class in the $middleware property of your app/Http/Kernel.php class.
So, to protect every route from being accessed without authentication do this
protected $middleware = [
'Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\CheckForMaintenanceMode',
'Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\EncryptCookies',
'Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse',
'Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession',
'Illuminate\View\Middleware\ShareErrorsFromSession',
'App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken',
'App\Http\Middleware\Authenticate',// add this line according to your namespace
];
it will redirect the user if not logged in. UPDATE Keep in mind that adding auth middleware as global will create redirect loop so avoid it.
Or if you want specific routes to be protected then attach the middleware auth to that route
Route::get('admin/profile', ['middleware' => 'auth', function () {
//
}]);
I think you are not attaching the auth middleware to your routes.
Create a middleware like this
<?php namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Closure;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Guard;
class Authenticate
{
/**
* The Guard implementation.
*
* #var Guard
*/
protected $auth;
/**
* Create a new filter instance.
*
* #param Guard $auth
* #return void
*/
public function __construct(Guard $auth)
{
$this->auth = $auth;
}
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if ($this->auth->guest()) {
if ($request->ajax()) {
return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
} else {
return redirect()->guest('login');
}
}
return $next($request);
}
}
Then Group the routes and protect them like this
Route::group(['middleware' => 'auth'], function()
{
Route::get();
Route::get();
Route::get();
Route::get();
}
Offcourse, in the routes you have to specify your links etc, it will only allow the user when he is authenticated and if not then login page will be shown
To make session redirect to your login just add ->middleware('auth') in your router files as shown below I am using laravel 5.3
Ex:
Route::post('controllerName','folderName\fileName#fnNmae')->middleware('auth');
Or visit https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/authentication
Im using the Auth controller in Laravel along with the auth middleware.
If the user is not logged in it redirects to:
auth/login
But I wish to redirect to a different url.
I have this in my auth controller:
protected $loginPath = '/cms/login';
protected $redirectTo = '/cms';
But it still redirects to:
auth/login
How can I redirect the auth controller?
The path for the redirect when you're not logged in is handled in the authenticates middleware, which is found at app/Http/Middleware/Authenticate.php.
Redirection will be handled by middleware. Hence change the redirect under handle() method in auth middleware as follows:
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if ($this->auth->guest())
{
if ($request->ajax())
{
//return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
}
else
{
//return redirect()->guest('auth/login');
return redirect()->guest('cms/login');
}
}
return $next($request);
}
