Just add water. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - Laravel 6 or Laravel 7 > Check older releases for older Laravel versions. What includes ------------- [](#what-includes) - Passless Authentication Guard Driver - Passless Login Controller - `LoginAuthentication` Notification - Little magic Install ------- [](#install) Just fire up Composer and require it into your Laravel project: ``` composer require darkghosthunter/passless ``` How it works ------------ [](#how-it-works) This guards extends the default `SessionGuard` and only overrides the authentication method to **not** check the password, only if the user exists by the given credentials (email or whatever keys you set in your form or controller). To register your users without a password, allow in your migration files the `password` string to be `nullable()`. Alternatively, pass an empty string on registration. ``` Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) { // ... $table->string('password')->nullable(); $table->rememberToken(); $table->timestamps(); }); ``` In your login form, you can discard the password input and leave only the email or username. ``` @csrf [ 'web' => [ 'driver' => 'passless', 'provider' => 'users', ], 'api' => [ 'driver' => 'token', 'provider' => 'users', ], ], ``` > Remember to set the correct guard (in this case, `web`) to use the passless driver in your Login and Register Controllers. ### 2) Disable the password validation [](#2-disable-the-password-validation) In your login form you shouldn't have the `password` input. If you're using the default `Auth\LoginController` class, you should override the `validateLogin()` method and disable the password validation. ``` /** * Validate the user login request. * * @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request * @return void */ protected function validateLogin(Request $request) { $this->validate($request, [ $this->username() => 'required' // 'password' => 'required ]); } ``` ### 3) Add the proper Login response [](#3-add-the-proper-login-response) Since the user won't be logged in immediately into your application when your credentials are validated, you should return a view which Notifies the user to check his email with a message or alert. While you are free to use any View to inform the user, you can just simply add a [flash notification](https://laravel.com/docs/session#flash-data) in your Login route, along with the [proper markup](https://laravel.com/docs/blade) to retrieve and show the notification in the view. If you're using the default controller, add or replace this code: ``` /** * The user has been authenticated. * * @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request * @param mixed $user * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response */ protected function authenticated(Request $request, $user) { $request->flashOnly(['email']); $request->session()->flash('success', 'Check your email to log in!'); return response()->view('auth.login'); } ``` > Since there is no password check in the login form, you may want to add a throttler middleware like `throttle:60,3` to your Login route to avoid mail asphyxiation. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) For fine tuning, publish the Passless configuration: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="DarkGhostHunter\Passless\PasslessServiceProvider" ``` You should definitively edit this config file if: - You're using a custom authentication controllers. - You're using additional middleware across your routes. - Need a different Login for Passless. - Need a better Notification for your Login Email. The contents of the config file are self-explanatory, so check the comments over each setting key.
