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

[](#installation)

Install using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org)

use LoopLinguist\SecurePasswordPolicy\Models\PasswordHistory;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    //  ...

    public function passwordHistories(): HasMany
    {
        return $this->hasMany(PasswordHistory::class);
    }
}
```

#### Method

[](#method)

Add the following code to the method that handles password changes:

```
use LoopLinguist\SecurePasswordPolicy\Http\HasPasswordHistory;

 if ((new HasPasswordHistory($request->input('password')))->hasHistory()) {
            return response()->json([
                'message' => 'Password found.'
            ], 409);
        }
```

Publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=secure-password-policy-config
```

This is the content of the file that will be published in config/secure-password-policy.php

Publish the migrations with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=secure-password-policy-migrations
