Basic API key middleware for Laravel

This is a simple key-based middleware for Laravel. It suited our common use-case of internal apps which need access to other internal apps (machine-to-machine) without the hassles of oauth etc.

So pass the token you created above and it should let you through :

You can pass the token in various ways, like a GET param as above, a bearer token header or as part of the JSON body. Eg:

You can use multiple service token names with a route if you want to seperate your api controls too :

There are a few other artisan commands available to help manage the tokens :
