如何在Laravel 5.4中使用会话登录

Question

I am a newbie in laravel. I made a registration and logged in form. The user can register himself but I am unable to create logged in form appropriately. I want to able the user to logged in with session on correct information of username and password.

here is my controller:

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use DB;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use Auth;

class tuto extends Controller
{
    public function login(){
        return view('pages.login');
    }

    public function login_validation(Request $request){
        $this->validate($request, [
    'username' => 'required|min:3|max:10',
     'password' => 'required|min:6',

    ]);

    if(Auth::attempt(['name'=>$request->username,'password'=>$request->password])){
        return "true";
        }

    return 'false';
    }

}

I am getting false message even on correct username and password. here is my logged in page:

<form method="POST" action="/login" autocomplete="off">

        <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">


        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-md-offset-4 col-md-4">
                <div class="form-group">
                    <label for="username">Username:</label>
                    <input type="text" id="username" name="username" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Username">
                </div>
            </div>



            <div class="col-md-offset-4 col-md-4">
                <div class="form-group">
                    <label for="password">Password:</label>
                <input type="password" id="password" name="password" class="form-control" placeholder="Enter Password">

                </div>
            </div>
        </div>



        <div class="form-group" align="center">
            <button class="btn btn-success">LogIn</button>

        </div>
        <div align="center"> Don't have an account ?  <a href="/register"> SignUp </a> </div>

</form>

also I want to create session on successful authentication. any help would be highly appreciable. Thank you

Answer 1

laravel attempt , automatically create the session if the username and password correct, so instead of returning true just redirecting user to his dashboards.
you also must create the post route in web.php for that login_validation method. hope is work.

sorry, my speaking english is very weak.

Answer 2

To avoid these kind of errors. Use laravel's build-in authentication system.

1.create new laravel app laravel new my-project

2.cd into my-project and type php artisan make:auth

This will create a basic authentication system with all login and registration routes, controllers and views
