This is a sample project demonstrating how to integrate the Auth0 Laravel SDK into a Laravel 9 application. For Laravel 10 applications, the integration steps are identical.

Documentation

Guidance on integrating Auth0 into your Laravel application can be found here:

• Auth0 Laravel SDK Readme
• Auth0 Laravel SDK Session Authentication Quickstart
• Auth0 Laravel SDK Token Authorization Quickstart

You may also find the following documentation from the SDK's GitHub repository useful:

• docs/Configuration
• docs/Events
• docs/Installation
• docs/Management
• docs/Users

Getting Started

Use Composer's create-project command to clone this repository and install the dependencies:

composer create-project auth0-samples/laravel auth0-laravel-quickstart && cd auth0-laravel-quickstart

Authenticate with Auth0 using the bundled Auth0 CLI:

./auth0 login

Note
Authenticate as a "user" if prompted.

Create an Auth0 Application:

./auth0 apps create \
  --name "My Laravel Backend" \
  --type "regular" \
  --auth-method "post" \
  --callbacks "http://localhost:8000/callback" \
  --logout-urls "http://localhost:8000" \
  --reveal-secrets \
  --no-input \
  --json > .auth0.app.json

Create an Auth0 API:

./auth0 apis create \
  --name "My Laravel Backend API" \
  --identifier "https://github.com/auth0/laravel-auth0" \
  --offline-access \
  --no-input \
  --json > .auth0.api.json

Run the application:

php artisan serve

Demonstration Routes

This sample includes a few demonstration routes to help you get started.

Session-Based Authentication

The SDK automatically registers the following routes for session-based authentication:

Method	Route	Description
GET	/login	Starts the user authentication flow. Sets up some initial cookies, and redirects to Auth0 to authenticate.
GET	/callback	Handles the return callback from Auth0. Completes setting up the user's Laravel session.
GET	/logout	Logs the user out.

The routes/web.php file contains routes that demonstrate working with session-based authentication. These are:

Method	Route	Description
GET	/private	Demonstrates how to protect a route with the auth middleware.
GET	/scope	Demonstrates how to protect a route with the can middleware.
GET	/colors	Demonstrates how to make Management API calls.

Token-Based Authorization

The routes/api.php file contains routes that demonstrate token-based authorization. These are:

Method	Route	Description
GET	/api	Demonstrates how to extract information from the request token.
GET	/api/private	Demonstrates how to protect an API route with the auth middleware.
GET	/api/scope	Demonstrates how to protect an API route with the can middleware.
GET	/api/me	Demonstrates how to make Management API calls.

Changes to the Default Laravel Application

This sample is based on the default Laravel application you can create using laravel new or composer create-project.

Note
For Laravel 10, use composer create-project laravel/laravel:^10.0 and follow the same steps outlined below.

Few changes are necessary to get started, as the SDK automatically sets up all the necessary guards, middleware and other services necessary to support authentication and authorization. The following is a list of changes that have been applied:

• The auth0/login package has been added to the composer.json file, using:

  composer require auth0/login:^7.8 --update-with-all-dependencies

• The config/auth0.php file was generated, using:

  php artisan vendor:publish --tag auth0

• The routes/web.php file was updated to include the demonstration routes.

• The routes/api.php file was updated to include the demonstration routes.

What is Auth0?

Auth0 helps you to easily:

• implement authentication with multiple identity providers, including social (e.g., Google, Facebook, Microsoft, LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter, etc), or enterprise (e.g., Windows Azure AD, Google Apps, Active Directory, ADFS, SAML, etc.)
• log in users with username/password databases, passwordless, or multi-factor authentication
• link multiple user accounts together
• generate signed JSON Web Tokens to authorize your API calls and flow the user identity securely
• access demographics and analytics detailing how, when, and where users are logging in
• enrich user profiles from other data sources using customizable JavaScript rules

Why Auth0?
