Custom authentication

If you do not use the Open-Admin built-in authentication login logic, you can refer to the following way to customize the login authentication logic

First of all, you need define a User provider, used to obtain the user identity, such as app/Providers/CustomUserProvider.php:

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\UserProvider;

class CustomUserProvider implements UserProvider
{
    public function retrieveById($identifier)
    {}

    public function retrieveByToken($identifier, $token)
    {}

    public function updateRememberToken(Authenticatable $user, $token)
    {}

    public function retrieveByCredentials(array $credentials)
    {
        // Use $credentials to get the user data, and then return an object implements interface `Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable` 
    }

    public function validateCredentials(Authenticatable $user, array $credentials)
    {
        // Verify the user with the username password in $ credentials, return `true` or `false`
    }
}

In the methods retrieveByCredentials and validateCredentials, the parameter $credentials is the user name and password array submitted in the login page, you can use $credentials to implement your own login logic

The definition of interface Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\Authenticatable：

<?php

namespace Illuminate\Contracts\Auth;

interface Authenticatable {

    public function getAuthIdentifierName();
    public function getAuthIdentifier();
    public function getAuthPassword();
    public function getRememberToken();
    public function setRememberToken($value);
    public function getRememberTokenName();

}

After you created cusom user provider, you will need to extend Laravel with it:

<?php

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Support\Providers\AuthServiceProvider as ServiceProvider;

class AuthServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * Register any application authentication / authorization services.
     *
     * @return  void
     */
    public function boot()
    {
        $this->registerPolicies();

        Auth::provider('custom', function ($app, array $config) {

            // Return an instance of Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\UserProvider...
            return new CustomUserProvider();
        });
    }
}

Finally modify the configuration, open config/admin.php，find the auth part:

    'auth' => [
        'guards' => [
            'admin' => [
                'driver' => 'session',
                'provider' => 'admin',
            ]
        ],

        // Modify the following
        'providers' => [
            'admin' => [
                'driver' => 'custom',
            ]
        ],
    ],

This completes the logic of custom authentication
