The module generates OTPs and validates them. You can plug your own notifier (such as AWS SNS) to send the OTPs to various channels.
Several configuration options are provided:
- Expiration duration
- Maximum OTPs allowed for a client
- Length of OTP
- Blacklisting clients
Installation
Via composer

composer require shawsank/otp
- Add
Shawsank\OTP\OTPServiceProvider
to your providers array inconfig/app.php
- Run
composer dump-autoload
- Run
php artisan vendor:publish

php artisan migrate
Done!
Configuration options
The package publishes config/otp.php
. It is well documented.
Usage
The package provides with the following helpers:
Manager
Generator
Validator
You can use Manager
to interact with the whole module. It acts as a wrapper for the complete functionality. However, you are free to use other helpers to generate and validate the OTPs.
Generate an OTP
To generate an OTP, call generate
method of Manager
. This takes two arguments: module and ID. Both are strings. You can pass anything here, but keep in mind that this combination will be used to validate the OTP.
For e.g. $manager->generate('users', '1')
will return an OTP for the combination of 'users' module and ID '1'.
Validate an OTP
To validate, call isValid()
of the manager. It will return boolean based on the validity of the OTP.
Validation makes sure the module + ID is not blocked, and the token is not expired.
Blocking and Unblocking
Whenever the module + ID exceeds the maximum allowed (non-expired) OTPs, they will be blocked. You won't be able to generate anymore OTPs for that module + ID combination.
Currently, there is no interface to unblock the clients. You need to manually remove the entry from the table otp_blacklist
. Please check ToDo to check progress and thoughts on this feature.
Notifications
The manager gives notify()
method which accepts any implementation of Notifier
interface. You can implement this interface as per your business logic.
You might want to call useOtp()
of the manager after the varification process completes. If you do not call this method, OTP will remain valid till it reaches its expiry limit.
