In this article, we will learn about how to implement multiple authentications in Laravel 9 application.
Steps for implementing multiple authentications
Step 1: Install Laravel Application
Step 2: Database Configuration
Step 3: Update Migration and Model
Step 4: Create Auth by Laravel UI Package
Step 5. Create Middleware
Step 6: Create Route
Step 7: Add Method on Controller
Step 8: Create Blade file
Step 9: Update on LoginController
Step 10: Create Seeder
Step 1: Install Laravel Application
First, open Terminal and run the following command to create a new Laravel application:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel multi-authStep 2: Database Configuration
In second step, we will make database configuration
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=multiauth
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=Step 3: Update Migration and Model
In this step, we need to add new column “is_admin” in users table and model. than we need to run migration.
database\migrations\2014_10_12_000000_create_users_table.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
class CreateUsersTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->boolean('is_admin')->nullable();
$table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('users');
}
}
app/Models/User.php
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;
/**
* The attributes that are mass assignable.
*
* @var array<int, string>
*/
protected $fillable = [
'name',
'email',
'is_admin',
'password',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be hidden for serialization.
*
* @var array<int, string>
*/
protected $hidden = [
'password',
'remember_token',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be cast.
*
* @var array<string, string>
*/
protected $casts = [
'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
];
}
Now we need to run migration.
php artisan migrateStep 4: Create Auth by Laravel UI Package
Run following commands:
Laravel UI Package
composer require laravel/ui Generate auth
php artisan ui bootstrap --auth npm installnpm run devStep 5. Create Middleware
After that, we need to create admin middleware that will allows only admin access users to that routes. so let’s create admin user with following steps.
php artisan make:middleware IsAdminapp/Http/middleware/IsAdmin.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Middleware;
use Closure;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class IsAdmin
{
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* @param \Closure(\Illuminate\Http\Request): (\Illuminate\Http\Response|\Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse) $next
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response|\Illuminate\Http\RedirectResponse
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if(auth()->user()->is_admin == 1){
return $next($request);
}
return redirect(‘home’)->with(‘error’,"Sorry ,You are not eligible to access this action.");
}
}
app/Http/Kernel.php
......
protected $routeMiddleware = [
'auth' => \App\Http\Middleware\Authenticate::class,
'auth.basic' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\AuthenticateWithBasicAuth::class,
'cache.headers' => \Illuminate\Http\Middleware\SetCacheHeaders::class,
'can' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\Authorize::class,
'guest' => \App\Http\Middleware\RedirectIfAuthenticated::class,
'password.confirm' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\RequirePassword::class,
'signed' => \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ValidateSignature::class,
'throttle' => \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ThrottleRequests::class,
'verified' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\EnsureEmailIsVerified::class,
'is_admin' => \App\Http\Middleware\IsAdmin::class,
];
......Step 6: Create Route
Here, we need to add one more route for admin user home page so let’s add that route in web.php file.
routes/web.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
use App\Http\Controllers\HomeController;
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Auth::routes();
Route::get('/home', [App\Http\Controllers\HomeController::class, 'index'])->name('home');
Route::get('admin/home', [HomeController::class, 'adminDashboard'])->name('admin.home')->middleware('is_admin');
Step 7: Add Method on Controller
Here, we need add adminDashboard() method for admin route in HomeController. so let’s add like as bellow:
app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class HomeController extends Controller
{
/**
* Create a new controller instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('auth');
}
/**
* Show the application dashboard.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Support\Renderable
*/
public function index()
{
return view('user-dashboard');
}
/**
* Show the application dashboard.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Support\Renderable
*/
public function adminDashboard()
{
return view('admin-dashboard');
}
}
Step 8: Create Blade file
In this step, we need to create new blade file for admin and update for user blade file. so let’s change it.
resources/views/admin-dashboard.blade.php
@extends('layouts.app')
@section('content')
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">Admin Dashboard</div>
<div class="card-body">
Welocome to admin dashboard.
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
@endsectionresources/views/user-dashboard.blade.php
@extends('layouts.app')
@section('content')
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">User Dashboard</div>
<div class="card-body">
Welcome to user dashboard
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
@endsectionStep 9: Update on LoginController
Open the app/Http/Controllers/Auth/LoginController.php and add the logic.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class LoginController extends Controller
{
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Login Controller
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This controller handles authenticating users for the application and
| redirecting them to your home screen. The controller uses a trait
| to conveniently provide its functionality to your applications.
|
*/
use AuthenticatesUsers;
/**
* Where to redirect users after login.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $redirectTo = '/home';
/**
* Create a new controller instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');
}
public function login(Request $request)
{
$input = $request->all();
$this->validate($request, [
'email' => 'required|email',
'password' => 'required',
]);
if(auth()->attempt(array('email' => $input['email'], 'password' => $input['password'])))
{
if (auth()->user()->is_admin == 1) {
return redirect()->route('admin.home');
} else {
return redirect()->route('home');
}
}else{
return redirect()->route('login')->with('error','Sorry . Entered Email And Password is Wrong.');
}
}
}
Step 10: Create Seeder
We will create seeder for create new admin and user. so let’s create seeder using following command:
php artisan make:seeder CreateUsersSeederdatabase/seeds/CreateUsersSeeder.php
<?php
namespace Database\Seeders;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use App\Models\User;
class CreateUsersSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* @return void
*/
public function run()
{
$user = [
[
'name'=>'Admin',
'email'=>'admin@victorzilla.com',
'is_admin'=>'1',
'password'=> bcrypt('Test@1234'),
],
[
'name'=>'User',
'email'=>'user@victorzilla.com',
'is_admin'=>'0',
'password'=> bcrypt('Test@1234'),
],
];
foreach ($user as $key => $value) {
User::create($value);
}
}
}Update logic on DatabaseSeeder
database\seeders\DatabaseSeeder.php
<?php
namespace Database\Seeders;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Seed the application's database.
*
* @return void
*/
public function run()
{
// \App\Models\User::factory(10)->create();
$this->call([CreateUsersSeeder::class]);
}
}
Now , Run below command .
php artisan db:seedOk, now Run the application
php artisan serveOutput : Dashboard show after admin login
Output : Dashboard show after user login
I’m extremely impressed with your writing skills and also
with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you modify it
yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it is rare
to see a great blog like this one today.
