Add session before login verification with Laravael auth - laravel

Question

Laravel 5.4.
I want to set a session when an user try to login. I found I can use a login function in my LoginController.php.
My code :
public function login(Request $request)
{
//Set session as 'login'
Session::put('last_auth', 'login');
}
It's correctly set my session but it doesn't continue the login and i get a blank page.
How can I say to my function to continue the login after set my session ?
Thanks

if you want override original laravel default login function, you can put this into Auth\LoginController, and remember to import use Illuminate\Http\Request;
public function login(Request $request)
{
// Here is your customized code
Session::put('last_auth', 'login');
$this->validateLogin($request);
// If the class is using the ThrottlesLogins trait, we can automatically throttle
// the login attempts for this application. We'll key this by the username and
// the IP address of the client making these requests into this application.
if ($this->hasTooManyLoginAttempts($request)) {
$this->fireLockoutEvent($request);
return $this->sendLockoutResponse($request);
}
if ($this->attemptLogin($request)) {
return $this->sendLoginResponse($request);
}
// If the login attempt was unsuccessful we will increment the number of attempts
// to login and redirect the user back to the login form. Of course, when this
// user surpasses their maximum number of attempts they will get locked out.
$this->incrementLoginAttempts($request);
return $this->sendFailedLoginResponse($request);
}
and here is register function
Import use Illuminate\Auth\Events\Registered; and add:
public function register(Request $request)
{
$this->validator($request->all())->validate();
event(new Registered($user = $this->create($request->all())));
$this->guard()->login($user);
return $this->registered($request, $user)
?: redirect($this->redirectPath());
}
