A custom jwt token generator

Installation via Composer:
--------------------------

[](#installation-via-composer)

```
composer require konstantinkotov/jwt
```

Settings:
---------

[](#settings)

### Step 1:

[](#step-1)

You must start a command below:

```
php artisan jwt:install
php artisan migrate
```

This will copy the necessary migration file to your database/migrations folder.

### Step 2:

[](#step-2)

Next you have to add *JWTSubjectTrait* to your User model:

```
use Konstantinkotov\jwt\Traits\JWTModelTrait;
```

If you need quickly access to token, you can add JWTControllerTrait to your controller files. Example:

```
use Konstantinkotov\jwt\Traits\JWTControllerTrait;
```

You'll have the access to the token inside your controller. You can obtain the token, using:

```
$token = $this->token();
```

The token will be searched in Authorization inside the headers params.

### Step 3:

[](#step-3)

If you need ready resource to your checks. You can use:

```
return (new \Konstantinkotov\jwt\Resources\AccessAllowedResource());

or

return (new \Konstantinkotov\jwt\Resources\AccessDeniedResource());
```

AccessAllowedResource will return, with status code 200:

```
{
  "token": "",
  "request_type": "bearer"
}
```

AccessDeniedResource will return, with status code 401:

```
{
  "error": "Unauthorized"
}
```

How to use:
-----------

[](#how-to-use)

```
$token = $user->generate();
```

This will create a token, save it to the api\_token column in users table.

Or you can use it using *JWT* class. For example:

```
\Konstantinkotov\jwt\JWT::token()->generate();
```

By default, the size is *100*.

### Result example:
