MassAssignmentException in Model.php line 445: username - php

Question

I tried to modify the 'RegisterController' to fit my needs.
RegisterController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;
use App\User;
use App\profile;
use App\roles_id;
use App\permissions_id;
use Validator;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\RegistersUsers;
class RegisterController extends Controller
{
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Register Controller
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| This controller handles the registration of new users as well as their
| validation and creation. By default this controller uses a trait to
| provide this functionality without requiring any additional code.
|
*/
use RegistersUsers;
/**
* Where to redirect users after login / registration.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $redirectTo = '/app/system/dashboard';
/**
* Create a new controller instance.
*
* #return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware('guest');
}
/**
* Get a validator for an incoming registration request.
*
* #param array $data
* #return \Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Validator
*/
protected function validator(array $data)
{
return Validator::make($data, [
'first_name' => 'string|required|max:255|unique:profiles',
'last_name' => 'string|required|max:255',
'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:profiles',
'username' => 'required|max:255|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|min:6|confirmed',
]);
}
/**
* Create a new user instance after a valid registration.
*
* #param array $data
* #return User
*/
protected function create(array $data)
{
//create user
$user = User::create([
'username' => $data['username'],
'password' => bcrypt($data['password']),
'real_password' => $data['password'],
]);
//create profile
profile::create([
'username' => $data['username'],
'first_name' => $data['first_name'],
'last_name' => $data['last_name'],
'email' => $data['email'],
]);
//create roles
roles_id::create([
'role_id' => 1,
'username' => $data['username'],
]);
//create role
roles_id::create([
'role_id' => 1,
'username' => $data['username'],
]);
//create permission
permisssions_id::create([
'perm_id' => 0,
'username' => $data['username'],
]);
return $user;
}
}
but it gives me this error upon sending a registration request from the registration form in the client.

any ideas, help please?

Answer 1

As you mentioned that there is no email column in users table, update your validation method as below:
protected function validator(array $data)
{
return Validator::make($data, [
'first_name' => 'string|required|max:255',
'last_name' => 'string|required|max:255',
'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:profile',
'username' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|min:6|confirmed',
]);
}
That means 'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:profile', instead of 'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:users'.
And to get rid of your MassAssignmentException in your profile model class use $fillable property.
protected $fillable = ['username', 'first_name', 'last_name', 'email'];
