Allows you to create a temporary signed route that logs a user in. There is no config file, you define everything when generating the url.

I see the general usage being

`User requests login` -> `You generate link and send in email` -> `User clicks link and is signed in`.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require pownall/magic-login
```

Available Methods
-----------------

[](#available-methods)

- `redirectToUrl(string $url)` - Default is `/`.
- `expiresAt(CarbonInterface $pointInTime)` - Default is `1 hour` after generating link.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Simple usage is:

```
MagicLogin::forUser($user)->generate();
```

---

If you want to alter the redirect url:

```
MagicLogin::forUser($user)
    ->redirectToUrl('/somewhere-else')
    ->generate();
```

or

```
MagicLogin::forUser($user)
    ->redirectToUrl(route('admin.dashboard'))
    ->generate();
```

---

If you want to make the link expire earlier or later pass a `CarbonInterface` to the `expireAt` method.

```
MagicLogin::forUser($user)
    ->expireAt(Carbon::now()->addMinutes(30))
    ->generate();
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer test
```
