Add password history to your laravel applications

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require starfolksoftware/password-history
```

You can publish and run the migrations with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="StarfolkSoftware\PasswordHistory\PasswordHistoryServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"
php artisan migrate
```

You can publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="StarfolkSoftware\PasswordHistory\PasswordHistoryServiceProvider" --tag="config"
```

This is the contents of the published config file:

```
[
    /*
    * When using the "HasPasswordHistory" trait from this package, we need to know which
    * Eloquent model should be used to retrieve your roles. Of course, it
    * is often just the "PasswordHistory" model but you may use whatever you like.
    *
    * The model you want to use as a PasswordHistory model needs to implement the
    * `StarfolkSoftware\PasswordHistory\Contracts\PasswordHistory` contract.
    */
    'password_history_class' => \StarfolkSoftware\PasswordHistory\PasswordHistory::class,

    /**
     * The table name for password histories.
     */
    'table_name' => 'password_histories',

    /**
     * The models password column name
     */
    'models_password_column_name' => 'password',

    /**
     * Password change can not be the same with any password in the last
     * {{ password_history_check_length }} recent passwords
     */
    'password_history_check_length' => env('PASSWORD_HISTORY_CHECK_LENGTH', 5),

    /*
    * The user model that should be used. If null, the default user provider from your
    * Laravel authentication configuration will be used.
    */
    'user_model' => \Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User::class,
]
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Registering models

[](#registering-models)

With this package, you can track password history of any model. To make your models `passwordhistorable`, add the `HasPasswordHistory` to the model classes as in the following

```
namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use StarfolkSoftware\PasswordHistory\Traits\HasPasswordHistory;

class User extends Model
{
    use HasPasswordHistory;
    ...
}
```

Password history is saved to the database the moment a `saved` event is fired on your model. Remember that also the `saved` event is fired when you first create a model.

### `NotInRecentPasswordHistory` validation rule

[](#notinrecentpasswordhistory-validation-rule)

If you want to validate that a password is not in the recent password history, you can use the `NotInRecentPasswordHistory` rule as in the following snippet:

```
use StarfolkSoftware\PasswordHistory\Rules\NotInRecentPasswordHistory;

validator(collect($model)->toArray(), [
    'password' => NotInRecentPasswordHistory::ofUser($model),
])->validate();
```
