Laravel generate password and insert user in database by hand - laravel

Question

I have few users with no email and password, and I would like to update users by adding email from freemail column, and setup password from random string.
This is my sample code:
public function updateUserProfil()
{
//find list user to be update(juste one to test)
$users = User::where('isfree', '1')->first();
//Random string generate
$motdepasse = str_random(6);
//find user
$updateUser= User::find($users->id);
//setup fields
$updateUser->email = $users->freemail;
$updateUser->remember_token = str_random(10);
$updateUser->motdepasse = $motdepasse;
$updateUser->password = bcrypt($motdepasse);
$updateUser->isfree = 0;
$updateUser->save();
}
The problem is that when I try to connect with email($users->freemail) and password($motdepasse), which is not encrypted random string, I get error that:
my credential is not valid
what did I miss ?

Answer 1

You can use update() to update rows. So your code must be
public function updateUserProfil()
{
//find list user to be update(juste one to test)
$users = User::where('isfree', '1')->first();
//Random string generate
$motdepasse = str_random(6);
//find user
$updateUser= User::find($users->id);
//setup fields
$updateUser->update([
'email'=>$users->freemail,
'remember_token'=>str_random(10),
'motdepasse'=>$motdepasse,
'password'=>bcrypt($motdepasse),
'isfree'=>0,
]);
}
