Installation
Configuration
If you are using laravel 5.5+ then this library supports auto discovery. To configure manually
just edit the config/app.php and add service provider like below.
At the app\Http\Kernel.php add this middleware
Database Migration
This library depends on a database table called auth_tokens, and it comes with a migration.
So you need to run the migration to add that table with a artisan command like
Route
Suppose your want to create a api url for the FaqController like this http://YOUR-HOST/api/v1/faq then,
in your route/api.php file add your routes like the below
Alternatively, Just in case if you don't have a dedicated route/api.php file in that case in your default route file
add the route as below:
Now you are all set, but one thing is you need a _token to access the protected url.
and you will get the _token once you are logged in. So we need a AuthController to login for the API.
Here is a sample AuthController under the Api namespace in the app/Http/Controllers directory.
Controller
NOTE: This Auth controller should be publicly accessable and NOT protected with auth middleware just like this (in your route/api.php)
or
How it works: If the user sends a POST request to this AuthController with email and password it will
response with a _token (like this $2y$10$/rUWXPY56sMsyYM6YNfEWea5IPO0xXeETDrAT0SS4dShk24H/fiZ6) then you can use
that _token to access any protected url like this
http://YOUR-HOST/api/v1/faq?_token=$2y$10$/rUWXPY56sMsyYM6YNfEWea5IPO0xXeETDrAT0SS4dShk24H/fiZ6
NOTE: You can pass the token via header, and in that case if you are to send the _token via header, in that case use token instead of _token as the header key.
