Laravel 5 Auth: User must implement CanResetPassword interface - laravel-5

Question

I've successfully implemented Laravel's Auth for Registration, Login and Logout. However, I'm having quite a bit of difficulty resolving the following error trying to implement the password reset functionality.
Error: User must implement CanResetPassword interface.
I believe my User class is configured properly:
use Illuminate\Auth\Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\CanResetPassword;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable as AuthenticatableContract;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\CanResetPassword as CanResetPasswordContract;
class User extends Model implements AuthenticatableContract,
CanResetPasswordContract {
use Authenticatable, CanResetPassword;
...
}
I'm not using Eloquent, so I have the following in config/auth.php:
'driver' => 'database'
Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting the "User must implement CanResetPassword interface" error?
Thanks much!

Answer 1

I faced this problem in laravel 5.2, and I found a solution like as:
<?php
namespace App;
use Eloquent;
// use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Auth\Authenticatable as AuthenticableTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\CanResetPassword;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\CanResetPassword as
CanResetPasswordContract;
class User extends Eloquent implements
Authenticatable,CanResetPasswordContract
{
use AuthenticableTrait,CanResetPassword;
.......
.......
}

Follow your stack trace.
PasswordBroker.php line 237
https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.1/src/Illuminate/Auth/Passwords/PasswordBroker.php#L237
Fails because DatabaseUserProvider's retrieveByCredentials returns a GenericUser object, not your User class object.
https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.1/src/Illuminate/Auth/DatabaseUserProvider.php#L99
What this means, basically, is that the password reminder functionality that Laravel comes with is only supported by the eloquent auth driver. You can't use it with the database driver. Your options are
switch to Eloquent
build out password resets by yourself, or
add your own custom auth driver
Inside of a service provider (AppServiceProvider, or create a new one):
Auth::extend('custom', function($app) {
return new CustomUserProvider($app['database.connection']);
});
It might be as simple as extending the database user provider and overriding getGenericUser to use your class instead.
class CustomUserProvider extends \Illuminate\Auth\DatabaseUserProvider
{
protected function getGenericUser($user) {
if ($user !== null) {
return new \App\User((array) $user);
}
}
}

Answer 3

The below should work in Any Model You Created
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Auth\Authenticatable as AuthenticableTrait;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Validator;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Validation\ValidatesRequests;
use Illuminate\Auth\Passwords\CanResetPassword;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable as AuthenticatableContract;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\CanResetPassword as CanResetPasswordContract;
class customer extends Model implements AuthenticatableContract,CanResetPasswordContract
{
//protected $primaryKey = 'customerId';
use AuthenticableTrait,CanResetPassword;
use ValidatesRequests;
protected $fillable=['name','email','password','country','favorite','gender','image'];
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
}
hope it helps
