This package provides a **PASETO (Platform-Agnostic Security Tokens)** authentication guard for Laravel. It offers a modern, secure, and easy-to-use alternative to JWT (JSON Web Tokens).

Paseto tokens are encrypted and authenticated, providing better security guarantees than JWT out of the box.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- ✅ Secure, stateless authentication for your Laravel applications.
- ✅ PASETO v4 Local support (symmetric key authenticated encryption).
- ✅ Easy to configure and use.
- ✅ Token blacklist functionality to invalidate tokens upon logout.
- ✅ An artisan command to generate a secure secret key.
- ✅ Fully customizable through configuration and contracts.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require mydaniel/laravel-paseto
```

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

[](#configuration)

1. **Publish the configuration file:**

    This will create a `config/paseto.php` file in your project. You can customize token expiration, issuer, audience, and other claims here.

    ```
    php artisan vendor:publish --provider="MyDaniel\Paseto\PasetoServiceProvider" --tag="config"
    ```
2. **Generate a Secret Key:**

    Run the following artisan command to generate a secure, 32-byte hex-encoded key. The command will automatically add it to your `.env` file.

    ```
    php artisan paseto:generate-key
    ```

    This will add a line like this to your `.env` file:

    ```
    PASETO_SECRET_KEY="your-generated-secret-key"
    ```
3. **Configure the Auth Guard:**

    Open your `config/auth.php` file and make the following changes:

    ```
    'defaults' => [
        'guard' => 'api', // Or your default guard
        'passwords' => 'users',
    ],

    'guards' => [
        'api' => [
            'driver' => 'paseto',
            'provider' => 'users',
        ],
    ],
    ```
