In Laravel, how to implement database driver and provider authentication without using the elegant way

Question

The drivers supported by Laravel are "database" or "eloquent" to authorize the website. In the default config/auth.php we can see that it always states that the driver is eloquent.

```
       /*
        |------------------------------------------------- -----------------------
        | User Providers
        |------------------------------------------------- -----------------------
        |
        | All authentication drivers have a user provider. This defines how the user's data is actually retrieved from the database or other storage mechanism.
        |
        | If you have multiple user tables or models, you can configure multiple sources representing each model/table. These sources can then be assigned to any additional authentication protection you define.
        |
        | Supported: "database", "eloquent"
        |
        */
    
        'providers' => [
            'users' => [
                'driver' => 'eloquent',
                'model' => App\Models\Users::class,
            ],
    
            // 'users' => [
            // 'driver' => 'database',
            // 'table' => 'users',
            // ],
        ],
    ```

Then we have a schema User associated with the table User for checking authentication. Therefore, we can use some of the auth methods: auth::check(), auth::atemp(), auth:login(),... If I don't use Model App\Models\Users::class, but use 'driver' => 'database', then how can I use some auth What about the function for authorization?

Answer 1

Just change the driver to database, you can easily comment out the eloquent part and uncomment the driver database part and you can use auth() normally as before. Laravel's auth functionality is plug and play.

'users' => [
    'driver' => 'database',
    'table' => 'users', //或者您用于用户的任何表。
]

You can design your signIn method in AuthController as follows:

public function signIn(Request $request)
    {
        $request->validate([
            'email' => 'required|email',
            'password' => 'required'
        ]);

        $credentials = $request->only('email', 'password');

        if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) {
            return redirect('/');
        }

        return redirect('login')->withErrors('登录详细信息无效');
    }

It will work in both eloquent and database drivers.
