I am trying to authenticate users in my Laravel application.
I am encountering the following problem:
- using driver database in auth.php: I can login using auth::attempt(), and auth::check is working, but I can't validate if the logged in user has a certain role.
- using driver eloquent in auth.php: I can login using auth::attempt(), but auth::check is not working. I can however check the role of the logged in user.
edit (question): How can I fix this so that with only one of the drivers, i can do a complete authentication and role check?
Migration tables:
Schema::create('users', function ($table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->integer('group_id')->unsigned();
$table->string('name', 64);
$table->string('email', 64)->unique();
$table->string('username', 64)->unique();
$table->string('phone', 13);
$table->string('address', 64);
$table->boolean('isresponsible');
$table->string('password', 64);
$table->rememberToken()->nullable();
});
Schema::create('roles', function ($table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
});
Schema::create('users_roles', function ($table) {
$table->integer('user_id')->unsigned();
$table->integer('role_id')->unsigned();
}
);
Schema::table('users_roles', function($table){
$table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->foreign('role_id')->references('id')->on('roles');
});

HomeController authentication function
public function authenticate(){

'email' => 'required|email',
'password' => 'required|alphaNum|min:3'
);
$validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), $rules);
if ($validator->fails()) {
return Redirect::to('login')
->withErrors($validator)
->withInput(Input::except('password'));
} else {
$userdata = array(
'email' => Input::get('email'),
'password' => Input::get('password')
);
if (Auth::attempt($userdata, true)) {
return Redirect::action('HomeController@index');
} else {
return Redirect::action('HomeController@login')->withInput();
}
}
}
USING THE DATABASE DRIVER
- auth:attempt() and auth::check are working
$this->beforeFilter('admin', ['only' => ['index']]); //filter in controller
//filter in filters;php
Route::filter('admin', function()
{
if(!Auth::check()) return Redirect::action('HomeController@index');
if(!Auth::user()->hasRole('admin')) return View::make('errors.401');
});
This fails with 'Call to undefined method IlluminateAuthGenericUser::hasRole()'
EDIT The database driver return a GenericUser Object, and I need my own User object. Don't know where I can change this.
Workaround:I'd rather not use this, ugly code and filters (or views) should not need to do this
Route::filter('admin', function()
{
if(!Auth::check()) return Redirect::action('HomeController@index');
$user = User::find((Auth::user()->id));
if(!$user->hasRole('admin')){ return View::make('errors.401');}
});
USING THE ELOQUENT DRIVER
- auth::attempt() succeeds
- auth::check() fails
- no error on the filter
