different login routes and login views for student and admin - laravel

Question

Every laravel newbie struggles with multi auth, I am no exception
I am trying to make student management system. There will two different routs for admin admin/login and for student student/login.
The student can't register itself, but he will be registered by admin.
So a student has only access to student/dashboard, registration of students will be done by the admin on admin/dashboard.
Below is the detail what I have already done:
created migration for both admin and student.
created guard for both admin and student.
modified login controller and added adminLogin and studentLogin methods.
modified RedirectIfAuthenticated middleware
Config/auth.php
'defaults' => [
'guard' => 'web',
'passwords' => 'users',
],
'guards' => [
'web' => [
'driver' => 'session',
'provider' => 'users',
],
'students' => [
'driver' => 'session',
'provider' => 'students',
],
'web-admin'=>[
'driver'=>'session',
'provider'=>'admin',
],
'api' => [
'driver' => 'token',
'provider' => 'students',
'hash' => false,
],
],
'providers' => [
'students' => [
'driver' => 'eloquent',
'model' => App\Student::class,
],
'admin' => [
'driver' => 'eloquent',
'model' => App\Admin::class,
],
'passwords' => [
'students' => [
'provider' => 'students',
'table' => 'password_resets',
'expire' => 60,
],
'admin' => [
'provider' => 'admin',
'table' => 'password_resets',
'expire' => 60,
],
],
LoginController.php
lass LoginController extends Controller
{
use AuthenticatesUsers;
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');
$this->middleware('guest:web-admin')->except('logout');
$this->middleware('guest:students')->except('logout');
}
public function showAdminLoginForm()
{
return view('admin.login', ['url' => 'admin']);
}
public function adminLogin(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request, [
'admin_id' => 'required',
'password' => 'required|min:8'
]);
if (Auth::guard('admin')->attempt(['admin_id' => $request->adminid, 'password' => $request->password], $request->get('remember'))) {
return redirect()->intended('/admin/dashboard');
}
return back()->withInput($request->only('admin_id', 'remember'));
}
public function showStudentLoginForm()
{
return view('student.login', ['url' => 'student']);
}
public function studentLogin(Request $request)
{
$this->validate($request, [
'roll_no' => 'required',
'password' => 'required|min:8'
]);
if (Auth::guard('writer')->attempt(['roll_no' => $request->roll_no, 'password' => $request->password], $request->get('remember'))) {
return redirect()->intended('/student/dashboard');
}
return back()->withInput($request->only('roll_no', 'remember'));
}
}
RedirectAuthenticated.php
class RedirectIfAuthenticated
{
public function handle($request, Closure $next, $guard = null)
{
if (Auth::guard($guard)->check()) {
if('web_admin'==='$guard'){
return redirect('/admin/dashboard');
}
return redirect('/admin/login');
}
if (Auth::guard($guard)->check()) {
if('students'==='$guard'){
return redirect('/student/dashboard');
}
return redirect('/student/login');
}
return $next($request);
}
}
I have created two folders in the view, student and admin. They both have two files. login.blade.php and dashboard.blade.php
What laravel does it it shows login, and register under auth folder.
I want to give two routes one for /admin/login which return admin.login view.
Same for student /student/login which return student.login view.
I want to remove /register route and make the link to available on admin dashboard , there will be no admin register link.
Also restrict the user from accessing admin area.
**I don't want the whole code, just help me steps and way that I should follow or changes I have to make **

Answer 1

Finally I solved it. I didn't use php artisan make:auth, instead I did it from scratch. Created a fresh project, deleted User.php and the migration.
Created models Student.php and Admin.php along with migrations and controllers.
php artisan make:model Student -mc
php artisan make:model Admin -mc
After than I created guards, I deleted default guard (I don't know It was right to do so, but I felt that if there is no need of default guard and also it was using users table so I deleted).
Here is config/auth.php
'guards' => [
'student'=>[
'driver'=>'session',
'provider'=>'students'
],
'admin'=>[
'driver'=>'session',
'provider'=>'admins'
],
],
'providers' => [
'students'=>[
'driver'=>'eloquent',
'model'=>App\Student::class,
],
'admins'=>[
'driver'=>'eloquent',
'model'=>App\Admin::class,
]
So I have two guards student and admin.
Here is the admin model Admin.php
class Admin extends Authenticatable
{
use Notifiable;
protected $fillable = [
'firstname', 'lastname','admin_id', 'password',
];
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
protected $casts = [
'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
];
}
and model Student Student.php
class Student extends Authenticatable
{
use Notifiable;
protected $fillable = [
'firstname', 'lastname','admin_id', 'password',
];
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
protected $casts = [
'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
];
}
After this I modified AdminController.php
class AdminsController extends Controller
{
use AuthenticatesUsers;
protected $guard = 'admin';
public function showLogin(){
return view('admin.login');
}
public function dashboard(){
return view('admin.dashboard');
}
public function login(Request $request){
$this->validate($request,[
'admin_id' => 'required',
'password'=>'required|min:8',
]);
if(Auth::guard('admin')->attempt(['admin_id'=>$request['admin_id'], 'password'=>$request['password']])){
return redirect('admin/dashboard');
}
return redirect('/admin');
}
}
Then I created routes Web.php
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Route::get('/admin','AdminsController#showLogin');
Route::get('/student','StudentsController#showLogin');
Route::get('/admin/dashboard','AdminsController#dashboard');
Route::get('/student','StudentsController#showLogin');
Route::post('/admin/login','AdminsController#login');
Route::post('/student/login','StudentsController#login');
Now, at this time login works. I still need to do a lot. If any suggestion, I welcome that, please comment below.
