Requirements

Dependency	Version

Laravel	^13.0

Installation

composer require deixtra/laravel-starter-auth

The service provider is auto-discovered — no manual registration needed.

Setup

Run the interactive installer:

php artisan auth-starter:install

The installer will ask you:

1. User model — Use existing App\Models\User or create a new one
2. Controller name — Custom name for the auth controller
3. Middleware name — Custom name for the middleware
4. Routes file name — Custom name for the routes file
5. Views location — Where to publish the views
6. Migrations — Run migrations now or skip
7. Route prefix — Optional prefix e.g. auth → /auth/login

Use --force to overwrite already-published files:

php artisan auth-starter:install --force

Configuration

After installation, edit config/auth-starter.php:

return [
    // URL prefix for all auth routes. '' = /login, 'auth' = /auth/login
    'route_prefix' => env('AUTH_STARTER_PREFIX', ''),

    // Redirect here after login/registration
    'home' => '/dashboard',

    // Set false to disable registration entirely
    'registration_enabled' => true,

    // true = App\Models\User, false = package's own User model
    'use_existing_user_model' => true,

    // Published file names (set automatically by installer)
    'controller_name' => 'AuthController',
    'middleware_name'  => 'auth.starter',
    'routes_file'      => 'auth',
    'views_path'       => 'auth-starter',
];

Via .env:

AUTH_STARTER_PREFIX=auth

Routes

All routes are prefixed with auth-starter. for named route access.

Method	URI	Name	Middleware
GET	/login	auth-starter.login	guest
POST	/login	—	guest
GET	/register	auth-starter.register	guest
POST	/register	—	guest
GET	/forgot-password	auth-starter.password.request	guest
POST	/forgot-password	auth-starter.password.email	guest
GET	/reset-password/{token}	auth-starter.password.reset	guest
POST	/reset-password	auth-starter.password.update	guest
GET	/dashboard	auth-starter.dashboard	auth
POST	/logout	auth-starter.logout	auth

Dashboard & logout have no prefix — always at /dashboard and /logout.

Use named routes in Blade:

<a href="{{ route('auth-starter.login') }}">Login</a>
<a href="{{ route('auth-starter.dashboard') }}">Dashboard</a>

Middleware

The package includes RedirectIfAuthenticated middleware. The installer auto-injects the alias into bootstrap/app.php.

If auto-injection fails, add it manually:

// bootstrap/app.php
->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
    $middleware->alias([
        'auth.starter' => \Deixtra\LaravelStarterAuth\Http\Middleware\RedirectIfAuthenticated::class,
    ]);
})

Customizing Views

Publish views to your application:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=auth-starter-views

Published to resources/views/vendor/auth-starter/ — edit freely, package uses your copies over defaults.
