Laravel won't send response after a successful create of an account - php

Question

I can save the data to the database just fine. And then I right after the creation I'll login that current user with the email. But it will always be sending a request. What might be the problem here?
class RegisterController extends Controller
{
use AuthenticatesUsers;
protected $redirectTo = '/home';
private $loginProxy;
public function __construct(LoginProxy $loginProxy)
{
$this->loginProxy = $loginProxy;
$this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');
}
function apiRegisterUser(Request $request)
{
$validator = Validator::make($request->all(), [
'name' => 'string|max:255',
'email' => 'required|string|email|max:255|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|string|min:6',
]);
if ($validator->fails()) {
return response()->json(array('code' => 406, 'error' => $validator->messages()), 406);
} else {
// Log::channel('abuse')->info('user');
$user = User::create(['name' => $request['name'],
'email' => $request['email'],
'password' => Hash::make($request['password']),
'referral_code' => str_random(10)
]);
$user->updateLastRoute(1);
$credentials = $this->loginProxy->attemptLogin($request['email'], $request['password']);
return response()->json($this->successResponse(200, "Login successfull", $credentials), 200);
}
}
protected function validator(array $data)
{
return Validator::make($data, [
'name' => 'required|string|max:255',
'email' => 'required|string|email|max:255|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|string|min:6|confirmed',
]);
}
protected function create(array $data)
{
return User::create([
'name' => $data['name'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
]);
}
}

Answer 1

use auth()->attempt() function i m not sure about loginProxy
but auth()->attempt() this should work
$credentials = [
"email" => $request['email'],
"password" => $request['password']
];
if (auth()->attempt($credentials)) {
return response()->json($this->successResponse(200, "Login successfull", $credentials), 200);
}
