Getting Started

Requirements

This package requires PHP 7.1+ and Laravel 5.5+.

Lumen is not supported!

Version information

Installation

First, you need to install the package via Composer:

composer require cyrildewit/laravel-silent-authentication

You can optionally publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="CyrildeWit\LaravelSilentAuthentication\SilentAuthenticationServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Register service provider manually

If you prefer to register packages manually, you can add the following provider to your application's providers list.

// config/app.php

'providers' => [
    // ...
    CyrildeWit\LaravelSilentAuthentication\SilentAuthenticationServiceProvider::class,
];

Usage

Default setup

This package will overwrite the default SessionGuard by default. The customized session guard uses the SilentAuthentication trait which will allow you silently authenticate users.

If you're not interesting in this default or if it's breaking your application, you can disable it in the config file.

SilentAuthentication trait

If you're already overwriting the default SessionGuard in your application, you can simply implement the SilentAuthentication trait.

use Illuminate\Auth\SessionGuard as BaseSessionGuard;
use CyrildeWit\LaravelSilentAuthentication\Guards\Traits\SilentAuthentication;

class SessionGuard extends BaseSessionGuard
{
    use SilentAuthentication;
}
