Laravault-Auth
==============

[](#laravault-auth)

Laravel package for using Hashicorp's Vault as an Authentication Provider. Authenticates users against an instance of Vault, stores user information in the session, and handles closing of the laravel session when the vault ttl expires. Built and tested with Laravel 5.4.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

1. Install the LaravaultAuth package manually or with composer:

    - Composer

        ```
        composer require codybuell/laravault-auth

        ```
    - Manually

        ```
        git clone https://github.com/codybuell/laravault-auth.git vendor/codybuell/laravault-auth

        # edit composer.json, under autoload -> psr-4 append:

        "CodyBuell\\LaravaultAuth\\": "vendor/codybuell/laravault-auth/src"

        ```
2. Add provider to `config/app.php` providers array:

    ```
     CodyBuell\LaravaultAuth\LaravaultAuthServiceProvider::class,

    ```
3. Publish config and configure `config/laravault-auth.php`:

    ```
     php artisan vendor:publish

    ```
4. Set 'vault' as your auth provider in `config/auth.php`:

    ```
     'providers' => [
         'users' => [
             'driver' => 'vault',
         ],
     ]

    ```
5. Set auth to use username rather than email. In `app/Http/Controllers/Auth/LoginController.php` add:

    ```
     /**
      * Use usernames instead of emails.
      */
     public function username() {
       return 'username';
     }

    ```
