It is compatible with Laravel 5.1 and above. Setup ----- [](#setup) 1. Run `composer require jord-jd/laravel-route-restrictor`. 2. Add `JordJD\LaravelRouteRestrictor\Providers\LaravelRouteRestrictorServiceProvider::class` to the `$providers` array in your `config/app.php` file. 3. Run `php artisan vendor:publish --provider="JordJD\LaravelRouteRestrictor\Providers\LaravelRouteRestrictorServiceProvider"`. 4. Add `\JordJD\LaravelRouteRestrictor\Http\Middleware\BasicAuthentication::class` to the `$middleware` array in your `app/Http/Kernel.php` file. 5. Add `'routeRestrictor' => \JordJD\LaravelRouteRestrictor\Http\Middleware\BasicAuthentication::class` to the `$routeMiddleware` array in your `app/Http/Kernel.php` file. 6. Add `RewriteRule .* - [E=REMOTE_USER:%{HTTP:Authorization}]` immediately below `RewriteEngine On` in your `public/.htaccess` file. This is required for web servers that are configured to use CGI as their PHP handler. Global restriction ------------------ [](#global-restriction) In order to restrict all routes in your Laravel application, just add the global username and password to your `.env` file as follows. Ensure you change the `username` and `password` values. ``` ROUTE_RESTRICTOR_GLOBAL_USERNAME=username ROUTE_RESTRICTOR_GLOBAL_PASSWORD=password ``` Your entire application will then be protected by these details, unless a route specific restriction is in place. Alternatively, you can modify the global restriction username and password in your `config/laravel-route-restrictor.php` configuration file. Restricting specific routes --------------------------- [](#restricting-specific-routes) To restrict specific routes, you must edit your routes file. Simply surround the route or routes you want to restrict with the following route group code. Ensure you change the `username` and `password` middleware parameters. ``` Route::group(['middleware' => 'routeRestrictor:username,password'], function () { // Route(s) to restrict go here }); ``` Note: If you have both route specific restrictions and a global restriction, both will work, but route specific restrictions will take priority. Excluding specific routes from restriction ------------------------------------------ [](#excluding-specific-routes-from-restriction) If you wish to exclude one or more routes from restriction, you must edit your routes file. Simply surround the route or routes you want to exclude with the following route group code. ``` Route::group(['middleware' => 'routeRestrictor:disable'], function () { // Route(s) to exclude from restriction go here }); ``` ### Health Score 49 — FairBetter than 95% of packages Maintenance83 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity23 Limited adoption so far Community13 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity66 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 85.2% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
