Laravel: API forgotten password helper
======================================

[](#laravel-api-forgotten-password-helper)

Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

Save time creating functions to manage forgotten passwords in laravel for your Api's. This package will add a new key to your users model, along with two new routes that will handle the forgotten and reset password.

Quick Usage
-----------

[](#quick-usage)

### Composer

[](#composer)

```
composer require appoly/api-password-helper

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Add the new key to your users table.

```
php artisan migrate

```

The Users Model needs to be *Notifiable* as an email will be automatically sent to them

```
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;

```

### Routes

[](#routes)

Two new routes will be created in your application

```
GET: /api/forgot-password?email=johndoe@example.com

```

The Post route takes two form data parameters in the request *key* and *password*.

```
POST: /api/forgot-password

```

If your user model has `$fillable` ensure that `password_helper_key` is added to the list of fields that are allowed to be updated.

Edit the email
--------------

[](#edit-the-email)

To edit the email you need to publish the config to your project using

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=api-password-helper-config --force
```

This will add the LaravelApiPasswordHelper file to your config folder, from there you can edit different sections of the email

SmartSchema Compatibility
-------------------------

[](#smartschema-compatibility)

If you are using [SmartSchema](https://github.com/appoly/smart-schema/) to manage your models fillables then add SmartField to your model

```
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable, SmartField;

```
