How to use laravel inbuild auth module with email verification - php

Question

I created auth module by php artisan make:auth
I Tried to convert registration success after email verifaction, but found all auth code is inside vendor folder.
for below routes
// Authentication Routes...
Route::get('login', 'Auth\AuthController#showLoginForm');
Route::post('login', 'Auth\AuthController#login');
Route::get('logout', 'Auth\AuthController#logout');
// Registration Routes...
Route::get('register', 'Auth\AuthController#showRegistrationForm');
Route::post('register', 'Auth\AuthController#register');
// Password Reset Routes...
Route::get('password/reset/{token?}', 'Auth\PasswordController#showResetForm');
Route::post('password/email', 'Auth\PasswordController#sendResetLinkEmail');
Route::post('password/reset', 'Auth\PasswordController#reset');
It creates user and login directly. but I want to verify users email by sending email with a token.
I know updating in vendor is not a good idea, Please suggest me to handle this, Or I should create my own auth module ?
Thanks for your time,
Cheers.

The registration process goes through the method register inside the trait:
/**
* Handle a registration request for the application.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function register(Request $request)
{
$validator = $this->validator($request->all());
if ($validator->fails()) {
$this->throwValidationException(
$request, $validator
);
}
Auth::guard($this->getGuard())->login($this->create($request->all()));
return redirect($this->redirectPath());
}
Then this method is calling two functions in the AuthController in the app directory, this you can edit as you wish:
/**
* 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, [
'name' => 'required|max:255',
'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:users',
'password' => 'required|confirmed|min:6',
]);
}
/**
* Create a new user instance after a valid registration.
*
* #param array $data
* #return User
*/
protected function create(array $data)
{
$user = User::create([
'name' => $data['name'],
'email' => $data['email'],
'password' => bcrypt($data['password']),
//'token' => str_random(10)
]);
//Send email to $user here
return $user
}
}
In order to prevent users from logging in, change the Auth Middleware:
class Authenticate
{
/**
* Handle an incoming request.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request
* #param \Closure $next
* #param string|null $guard
* #return mixed
*/
public function handle($request, Closure $next, $guard = null)
{
if (Auth::guard($guard)->guest()) {
if ($request->ajax()) {
return response('Unauthorized.', 401);
} else {
return redirect()->guest('login');
}
}
if (!Auth::user()->validated())
{
return redirect()->route('error.message.route');
}
return $next($request);
}
}
