NotFoundHttpException while using api_token based authentication in laravel 5.2 - php

I am doing project in laravel 5.2. For authentication, I am using API Token Authentication from Laravel 5.2. I have referred https://gistlog.co/JacobBennett/090369fbab0b31130b51 and my code looks like,
Routes.php
Route::post('login/','UserController#login');
Route::group(['prefix' => 'api/v1', 'middleware' => 'auth:api'], function () {
Route::get('/', function () {
return "Hi";
});
});
and in UserController.php I did simple login as follows,
public function login(Request $request){
$email = $request->input('email');
$user = DB::table('users')->where('email',$email)->first();
return $user->api_token;
}
I am using postman and first I did login and it returns me the correct api_token from table but when I try to access urls within middleware then it throws an error page as,
Sorry, the page you are looking for could not be found.
1/1
NotFoundHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 161:
I tried,
localhost:8888/ as well as
localhost:8888/api_token=6CnUsIKlmwHXYQNFAuhUTDweUe707gJU2nM2j1Kwjn80nFgmaJHGXuAdN3BX
But still it shows same error page.

Try to change your route / for this code in your Routes.php:
Route::post('login/','UserController#login');
Route::group(['prefix' => 'api/v1', 'middleware' => 'auth:api'], function () {
Route::get('/', array('as'=>'api_login', 'uses' => 'UserController#api_login'));
});
And in your UserController.php add:
public function api_login(){
return "Hi";
}
I use the Auth class, not an api and if i put the code in Routes.php it didn't work, but if I put the same code inside a Controller and in my Routes.php add the 'uses', it works.
I hope that it works for you too.
Good Luck!

If it helps anyone that googles this issue, I had the same problem and after hours of playing about with it realised it was because I had no api_tokens in my database, once I added it was fine, just weird behaviour that it gives 404 when api_token is not valid.

using Laravel 7 Api routes

I'm trying to use simple laravel api for getting and sending requests, after define this api routes in api.php:
Route::prefix('Api/v1')->group(function () {
Route::any('login', 'Api\v1\AuthController#login');
Route::any('register', 'Api\v1\AuthController#register');
});
and creating AuthController in app/http/controller/Api/v1 directory:
class AuthController extends Controller
{
public function login()
{
dd(request()->all());
}
public function register()
{
dd(request()->all());
}
}
i get 404 error on this link:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/Api/v1/login
how can i resolve this problem?
Routes in api.php are automatically prefixed with /api. Currently, your routes are:
http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/Api/v1/login
http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/Api/v1/register
So navigating to http://127.0.0.1:8000/Api/v1/login is a 404.
If you remove /Api, and just use Route::prefix('/v1') ... then you should have no issue.
Also, always double check your routes with php artisan route:list to see what's wrong.
The API Routes are already prefixed by /api . I think the correct structure you'd looking for would be
Route::prefix('v1')->group(function () {
Route::any('login', 'AuthController#login');
Route::any('register', 'AuthController#register');
});
This way, you're calling the methods Login and Register from you /Controllers/AuthController file with the route
http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/login
You can use many ways to define routes for API in laraval > routes > api.php file.
In this i'm going to explain how we can use routes group in the laraval..
Route::group([
'namespace' => 'Customers', //namespace App\Http\Controllers\Customers;
'middleware' => 'auth:api', // this is for check user is logged in or authenticated user
'prefix' => 'customers' // you can use custom prefix for your rote {{host}}/api/customers/
], function ($router) {
// add and delete customer groups
Route::get('/', [CustomerController::class, 'index']); // {{host}}/api/customers/ this is called to index method in CustomerController.php
Route::post('/create', [CustomerController::class, 'create']); // {{host}}/api/customers/create this is called to create method in CustomerController.php
Route::post('/show/{id}', [CustomerController::class, 'show']); // {{host}}/api/customers/show/10 this is called to show method in CustomerController.php parsing id to get single data
Route::post('/delete/{id}', [CustomerController::class, 'delete']); // {{host}}/api/customers/delete/10 this is called to delete method in CustomerController.php for delete single data
});
You can create controller using artisan command with default methods
php artisan make:controller Customers/CustomerController --resource

laravel 5.5 error in routes - InvalidArgumentException Route [login] not defined

i replace my web.php whit this code, same as my code in laravel 5.2, now im using laravel 5.5, i dont have any errors in 5.2 version.
Route::get('/home', function () {
return view('home');
});
Route::get('/register', 'registerController#index');
Route::post('/register', 'registerController#register');
Route::get('/signin', 'signinController#index');
Route::post('/login', 'signinController#login');
Route::get('/logout', ['uses'=>'signinController#logout'])->middleware('auth');
Route::get('/profile', ['uses'=>'profileController#index'])->middleware('auth');
Route::get('/updateprofile', ['uses'=>'profileController#updateprofile'])->middleware('auth');
Route::post('/updateprofile', ['uses'=>'profileController#updateprofilesave'])->middleware('auth');
Route::post('/updateprofiles', ['uses'=>'profileController#updatechannelart'])->middleware('auth');
Route::get('/changepassword', ['uses'=>'profileController#indexpassword'])->middleware('auth');
Route::post('/changepassword', ['uses'=>'profileController#changepassword'])->middleware('auth');
Route::get('/article', 'articleController#index');
Route::get('/searchuser', ['uses'=>'searchController#index']); //Untuk searching user
Route::get('/searchuserpage', ['uses'=>'searchController#searchuser']); //searching user jquery
Route::get('/photos', ['uses'=>'documentationController#indexphoto'])->middleware('auth');
then i try to access url /profile which means need authenticate first, and it show me an error InvalidArgumentException Route [login] not defined. how to solve this problem. thankyou
this is my code for Authenticate.php
public function handle($request, Closure $next)
{
if(Auth::Check()){
return $next($request);
}
else{
return redirect('/signin');
}
}
The issue comes from the fact that somewhere in your code upon instantiation you're referring to a named route called 'login' but it's not defined in your web.php file.
An example of hitting this issue is you may have a redirect pointing to this route somewhere tucked away in one of your controllers, for example:
return redirect()->route('login');
To fix this issue, apply the name to the applicable route.
Route::post('/login', 'signinController#login')->name('login');
when you call a route in your project you must define route name .
such as :
<form action:"{{route('login')}}" method="post">
and in route :
Route::post('/signin', 'signinController#index')->name('login')
This is issue with the named routes. Please make sure which all places the named routes is being used.
Route::get('/signin', 'signinController#index')->name('login')
Here, you can see I named this route login and I can call this route anywhere using route('login') helper method.

Laravel: How to allow a route group to be public?

I'm new to Laravel 5.6 and are trying to write an API with the public route /signup.
For JWT auth, I'm using jwt-auth 1.0.0-rc.2.
routes/api.php
// This code WORKS, the route is public
Route::middleware('guest:api')->get('/signup', function(Request $request) {
return "Sign up"; // This code belongs in the controller
});
// This code DOES NOT WORK, authentification needed
Route::get('signup', 'AuthController#signup')->middleware('guest');
// This code DOES NOT WORK
Route::group([
'middleware' => 'guest:api'
], function($router) {
Route::get('signup', 'AuthController#signup');
});
I couldn't find anything useful in the docs, but it should be my wrong way of adding the guest permission, as the first example works.
How can I make the the not working code work? Any idea? Thanks!
Route::middleware(['guest:api'])->group(function () {
Route::get('signup', 'AuthController#signup');
Route::get('mySecondRoute', 'AuthController#mySecondFunction');
});
or even just
Route::get('signup', 'AuthController#signup');
out of any group

Auth not persisting in Laravel 5.2

I have my auth doing this on login.
if (Auth::attempt($userdata)) {
dd(Auth::user()); //this shows the user just fine,
//which proves that the auth driver is working.
return redirect()->intended('dashboard');
}
However, after redirecting to the dashboard. It appears the auth isn't persisted. If I do dd(Auth::user()) or even just Auth::check() it returns null.
Here's the route:
Route::group(['middleware' => ['web']], function () {
Route::get('test',function(){
dd(Auth::user()); //returns null
echo Auth::user()->name; // returns Trying to get property of non-object
});
});
What am I doing wrong?
The weird thing about this is that last night it was working. It kinda just magically stopped working.
The solution to this is not an obvious one, specially coming from older versions of laravel.
Thanks to this link.
Auth Session killed in Laravel 5.2
I was able to solve it, so I'll post the answer to help others who encounter the same issue.
Originally I just had this in my routes.
Route::post('app/login', 'Auth\AuthController#doLogin');
Route::group(['middleware' => ['web','auth']], function () {
Route::get('test',function(){
dd(Auth::user());// was always returning null
});
});
But, to get the login to persist, I had to do this
Route::group(['middleware' =>[ 'web']], function () {
Route::post('app/login', 'Auth\AuthController#doLogin');
});
Route::group(['middleware' => ['web','auth']], function () {
Route::get('test',function(){
echo Auth::user()->name;
});
});
Apparently any route thats going to call or register a session needs to employ the 'web' middleware.
Just add the "auth" middleware to your "test" route and try accessing it while logged in. It shouldn't give you any errors that way. If you try to access it without logging in, it should redirect you to whatever route is defined in the "auth" middleware.
By using "auth" middleware, you are basically ensuring that Auth::user() will always return a proper User instance.
Now, if this works then you can be sure that Laravel Auth is indeed persisting the user and the issue is somewhere else in your code.
I haven't noticed any issues with the Auth class in Laravel.

Laravel 5 Routing with Auth

Hello!
I'm trying to learning laravel, and i started with doing a page that only logged people can access ( I don't have login yet ) , but i'm just testing, so far i have:
Routes.php:
<?php
Route::get('/', ['as' => 'index', function () {
return view('index');
}]);
Route::get('/home', function () {
return view('home');
});
Ok, this file contains the routes , i searched how to give a name to the route, so i can redirect user to that route when he don't have access.
My other file is home.blade.php:
<?php
if (!Auth::check()){
return Redirect::route('index');
}
?>
So is that the best way to check if user is logged? I gave a name to the route, index , so if user is not logged i want to redirect back to index, is not working tho, i want to know if this is the best option to achieve my goal.
Thank you.
The best way, as said at documentation is:
Route::get('/home', ['middleware' => 'auth', function () {
// here will be only authorized access
return view('home');
}]);
Auth middleware defined by default.
use Auth; loading facades
if (Auth::check()){
if(Auth::Guest()):
return Redirect::route('index');
endif;
}
?>
