Laravel MD5 Hash
================

[](#laravel-md5-hash)

This package is used to replace Laravel's default hash to support legacy systems that used MD5 for password hash.

Please use it with your own risk, since MD5 is not recommended to be used as password hash.

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

[](#installation)

Using [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/), just run this command below.

```
composer require marcus-campos/laravel-md5-hash
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

After installed, open `config/app.php` and find this line.

```
Illuminate\Hashing\HashServiceProvider::class
```

Comment or remove that line and add this line to override Laravel's hash handling.

```
L5MD5Hash\Md5Hash\HashServiceProvider::class
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Now you can use built in hash function using this command.

```
Hash::make('password'); // return 5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99
bcrypt('password'); // return 5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99
```
