Use case -------- [](#use-case) When a user register, Laravel uses `bcrypt` algorithm with a cost factor of `10` to hash passwords. The problem is when you change [the default hashing algorithm](https://github.com/laravel/laravel/blob/master/config/hashing.php#L18) or when Laravel eventually changes [the default algorithm](https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/master/src/Illuminate/Hashing/HashManager.php#L95) to `argon2i`or PHP recommended [`PASSWORD_DEFAULT` constant](https://www.php.net/manual/en/password.constants.php) changes, and you want to keep up or simply want to upgrade the `cost` factor of `bcrypt`; your changes will only be reflected on **newly registered users** or when **existing users change their password**. You have to implement a common routine task to upgrade users' password hash by checking `Hash::needsRehash` whenever the user provides a valid credential. Prerequisites ------------- [](#prerequisites) - **PHP** 7.2 or greater and 8.0.2 or greater - **Laravel** 6.x || 7.x || 8.x || 9.x || 10.x Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require samasend/laravel-needs-auto-rehash ``` Basic Usage ----------- [](#basic-usage) That's it, you just need to install the package. 🚀 How does this works? -------------------- [](#how-does-this-works) - This magical package listen for the built-in `Illuminate\Auth\Events\Attempting` [event fired from the framework](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/authentication#events) and validate the credentials [using the built-in infrastructure](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/authentication#the-user-provider-contract). - If the user password needs rehashing, it will rehash the password and update the model.
