Laravel5.2不需要的VerifyCsrfToken

Question

i set up fresh L5.2 and my route files after changes looks like that:

<?php

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Application Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register all of the routes for an application.
| It's a breeze. Simply tell Laravel the URIs it should respond to
| and give it the controller to call when that URI is requested.
|
*/

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('welcome');
});

Route::group(['middleware' =>'api', 'prefix' => '/api/v1'], function () {
    Route::post('/api/v1/login', 'Api\V1\Auth\AuthController@postLogin');

});

When i go to postman and make POST: http://kumarajiva.dev/api/v1/login I get: TokenMismatchException in VerifyCsrfToken.php line 67

But me kernel file looks like that:

protected $middlewareGroups = [
    'web' => [
        \App\Http\Middleware\EncryptCookies::class,
        \Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse::class,
        \Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class,
        \Illuminate\View\Middleware\ShareErrorsFromSession::class,
        \App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken::class,
    ],

    'api' => [
        'throttle:60,1',
    ],
];

I don't change anything. Route 'login' is in 'api' middelware group (not 'web' where is VerifyCsrfToken), but surprisingly I get above error. So I wonder - wtf? Howi it works? Do 'web' middelware group is allways executed (for each request)?

By default, it looks as if all routes are wrapped into the 'web' group.

Within RouteServiceProvider there is this function.

    /**
     * Define the "web" routes for the application.
     *
     * These routes all receive session state, CSRF protection, etc.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Routing\Router  $router
     * @return void
     */
    protected function mapWebRoutes(Router $router)
    {
        $router->group([
            'namespace' => $this->namespace, 'middleware' => 'web',
        ], function ($router) {
            require app_path('Http/routes.php');
        });
    }

If you want a specific uri to not check for the CSRF Token, go to App\\Http\\Middleware\\VerifyCsrfToken and add the uri to the $except array.

You can also use the CLI and php artisan route:list to see what routes are in behind what middleware.
