ltsochev/eloquent-devices

Allows "remember me" tokens to span across multiple devices

Allow multiple remember me tokens per user

This package allows your users to be remembered by Laravel across multiple devices., _(*1)

By default laravel stores the "remember" token in the users table as a singular column, which is an issue when more than one device stores a "remember token", _(*2)

Installation

Laravel

This package can be used in Laravel 5.4 or higher. It's not tested on older versions as of yet., _(*3)

You can install the package via composer:, _(*4)

``` bash composer require ltsochev/eloquent-devices, <sub>(*5)</sub>

Afterwards you'll need to register the service provider in your `config/app.php` file as follows:

```php
'providers' => [
    // ...
    Ltsochev\Auth\ServiceProvider::class,
]

make sure it's added after Illuminate\Auth\AuthServiceProvider and Illuminate\Session\SessionServiceProvider so that we are certain the Laravel Auth driver is already loaded., <sub>(*6)</sub>

Two more settings need to be added to config/auth.php file., <sub>(*7)</sub>

'token_table' => 'user_tokens',
'driver_name' => 'eloquentdevices',

Once done, you'll have to run migrations for the package, <sub>(*8)</sub>

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Ltsochev\Auth\ServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"
php artisan migrate

And finally, you'll have to replace the auth driver in your auth config file. It's easily done by changing the config/auth.php file accordingly:, <sub>(*9)</sub>

//...
'driver' => 'eloquentdevices',

You can change the name of the abstraction by changing the value of driver_name in your config file., <sub>(*10)</sub>

And that's it! Your users will be remembered across multiple devices., <sub>(*11)</sub>

IMPORTANT! The package does not have automated garbage collect as of yet. You'll have to bake in something on your own for this one., <sub>(*12)</sub>
