Esotalk External Authentication

A package that allows for external authentication with Esotalk, integrating directly with the Laravel 4 framework.

Strongly based on the Fluxbb External Authenticator made by Franz Liedke.

Installation

Step 1: Install package through Composer

Add this line to the require section of your composer.json:

"modbase/esotalk-auth": "dev-master"

Alternately, you can use the Composer command-line tool by running this command:

composer require modbase/esotalk-auth

Next, run composer update to actually install the package.

Step 2: Register the service provider

In your Laravel application, edit the app/config/app.php file and add this line to the providers array:

'Modbase\EsotalkAuth\EsotalkAuthServiceProvider',

Step 3: Configure the location of your Esotalk installation

In order to read some configuration values, the path to your Esotalk installation needs to be configured.

To copy the package configuration file, run this command:

php artisan config:publish modbase/esotalk-auth

You can then edit app/config/packages/modbase/esotalk-auth/config.php. Change the path option to point to the root directory of your Esotalk installation. Make sure it ends with a slash.

Step 4: Enable the new authentication adapter

In your application, edit the app/config/auth.php file and set the driver option to esotalk, so that it looks like this:

'driver' => 'esotalk',

Usage

Once installed, you can use the authentication feature of Laravel as you always do, with Laravel magically using Esotalk's database and cookie behind the scenes.

Note: Only MySQL is supported by Esotalk.
