After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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 laravel-face-auth

Laravel Face authentication

This package uses Microsoft's cognitive API to identify faces instead of passwords for your Laravel application.

Disclaimer

Any kind of Face Recognition, using the camera of the device as a form of Authentication is flawed. You only need to hold a good photo in front of the camera to by pass it. Using this for authentication is like shooting in your own foot and contributing for a more insecure web.

Please do not use face recognition as an alternative for password authentication in a production system!

Installation

You can install the package via Composer:

Add the service provider to your config/app.php:

In your config/auth.php, change the auth driver to faceauth:

Publish the configuration:

Edit the newly published config/faceauth.php file and enter your Face API key.

Usage and authorization

The face authentication works, by using a reference image of your user and matching it against a uploaded image upon login. So this pretty much is the same flow as comparing two password hashes.

When you register your users, you need to make sure that you store a photo of the users face - this is basically his password.

In order for this package, to find the user photo, your User model needs to implement the FaceAuthenticatable interface.

This interface only has one single public method getFaceAuthPhoto(). This method needs to return the content of the user photo.

Example:

Your login form now needs a photo field (the name can be configured) - this field should contain a base64 representation of the image, the user uses to log in.

If you want a simple way to capture the user image from the webcam, take a look at the vue-webcam Vue.js component.
