how to change the value of a column in laravel on logout - php

Question

i have a column called active_user to show when a user is online(1). When i log a user in i set the active_user column to 1 but when i log the user out and check active_user it still shows online(1). what i want is that when i click the logout button the aactive_user column will change to offline(0) and also update it to the database. my login is below.
public function postSignIn(Request $request) {
$this->validate($request, [
'email' => 'required',
'password' => 'required'
]);
if(Auth::attempt(['email' => $request['email'], 'password' => $request['password']])) {
$user=User::whereRaw('email=?',[Input::get('email')])->first();
//this is where i set the active_user to 1
$user->active_user=1;
$user->save();
if($user!=null){
switch($user->role_id){
case 1:
if($user->status==0){
session()->flash('flash_message_error', ' Your Account has been deactivated. Contact the administrator');
return Redirect::to('admin/login');
}
return redirect()->route("index");
break;
then below is my logout function
public function LogOut($id) {
$user = User::find($id);
$user->active_user=1;
$user->save();
Auth::logout();
return redirect('admin/login');
}
in the logout function i want to change the active_user back to offline(0) but i keep getting an error "Missing argument 1 for App\Http\Controllers\AdminController::LogOut()"

Your route logout is now expecting an id attribute passed to it. This seems wrong to me as it is the authenticated user that you want to apply this logic to, having to pass their id to logout is unnecessary. For example if your logged in user has an id of 1, to logout with your code they would need to go to a url such as:
http://myapp.app/logout/1
Instead, use the Auth implementation to modify the user.
// Remove requirement for ID as a parameter
public function LogOut() {
$user = Auth::user();
$user->active_user=1;
$user->save();
Auth::logout();
return redirect('admin/login');
}
