Privat
======

[](#privat)

Private is a very simple password protection for Laravel projects. It's useful for websites in a staging state.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Install with composer

[](#install-with-composer)

`composer require dvlpp/privat`

### Add Privat Service Provider (except for Laravel 5.5+)

[](#add-privat-service-provider-except-for-laravel-55)

Add the following line in the `providers` section of your `config/app.php` file:

`\Dvlpp\Privat\PrivatServiceProvider::class`

### Add Privat middleware in your project

[](#add-privat-middleware-in-your-project)

Add the following line at the end of the `$middleware` array of the `app/Http/Kernel` file:

`\Dvlpp\Privat\PrivatMiddleware::class`

### Set Privat config

[](#set-privat-config)

First create the privat config file:

`php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Dvlpp\Privat\PrivatServiceProvider"`

And then edit the new `/config/privat.php` accordingly (nothing fancy), or even better, add this keys in your `.env` file:

- PRIVAT\_RESTRICTED=true
- PRIVAT\_PASSWORD=mypassword

### Exceptions

[](#exceptions)

The `except` config param is meant to contain an array of excluded urls (those url won't be protected by Privat).

How does it work
----------------

[](#how-does-it-work)

Quite simple: if the given password is correct, Privat sets a session property, and look for it on each request. So, obviously, Privat won't work on non session based systems (an API for instance).
