FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package caslite
Caslite
Caslite provides the Central Authentication Service (CAS) authentication to Laravel 5.1 applications.
Inspired by Laravel Socialite
Installation
To get started with Caslite, add to your composer.json file as a dependency:
Configuration
After installing the Caslite library, register the Avvertix\Caslite\CasliteServiceProvider in your config/app.php configuration file:
Also, add the Caslite facade to the aliases array in your app configuration file:
You will also need to add the configuration to reach the CAS server your application utilizes. These configuration parameters should be placed in your config/services.php configuration file, and should use the key cas. The following code block shows what to add in the configuration parameters:
As you might have noticed most of the paramaters refers to an environment variable, so you can customize them for each environment.
Typically you will only need to include in the .env file the following variables (values are only for example)
Usage
Next, you are ready to authenticate users! You will need two routes: one for redirecting the user to the CAS provider, and another for receiving the callback from the provider after authentication. We will access Caslite using the Caslite facade:
The authenticate method takes care of sending the user to the CAS Authentication provider, while the user method will read the incoming request and retrieve the user's information from the provider.
Of course, you will need to define routes to your controller methods:
Retrieving User Details
Once you have a user instance, you can grab a few more details about the user:
Logout
when a user logsout from your application, you have to call Caslite::logout() to perform also the CAS logout.
