Laravel password reset.
Install package using Composer:
composer require paulkatipunan/password_reset
Register the package's service provider in config/app.php:
'providers' => [
PaulKatipunan\ServiceProvider::class,
],
Run the Artisan's command:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="PaulKatipunan\ServiceProvider" --tag="email-template"
This will publish the email template of the password reset link. And you can modify it if you want. You can include the user details in the email. Example:
{{$user->email}}, {{$user->name}}
Run this Artisan's command: if you want to publish the change password blade file.
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="PaulKatipunan\ServiceProvider" --tag="change-password-blade-file"
If you publish the change password blade file. you will be redirect to the change password blade file after clicking the sent link in your email and if you did not publish the blade file this will return you an object.
Example:
{
"email": "your_email@gmail.com",
"token": "MWBtYVqpkotOehmVwPgCSXn3iKgYsdcIWJF7HyLQQESwWgA9pBx3Kw1isMhT",
"created_at": "2018-11-22 06:09:59"
}
Laravel's mailer has to be configured. Fill out these values in the .env file:
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=your_email@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=youemailpassword
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl
MAIL_FROM_EMAIL=from_mail@gmail.com
MAIL_SUBJECT=Reset password
If you using gmail, also you need to enable less secure apps
https://myaccount.google.com/u/1/lesssecureapps
In your controller just use sendPasswordResetLink() helper, you need to pass the email.
public function create(Request $request)
{
return sendPasswordResetLink(request('email'));
}
If you already set up the .env then pass the email to the helper and check your email this will send you the password reset link.
Example:
your view.blade.php
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<form action="{{ route('password.reset') }}" method="post">
{{csrf_field()}}
<input type="text" name="email" placeholder="email">
<input type="submit" value="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
your route/web.php
Route::post('password/reset/request', 'PasswordResetController@send')->name('password.reset');
your Controller
public function send(Request $request)
{
return sendPasswordResetLink(request('email'));
}
