Introduction

Many web applications require users to provide their email address before use verify. Rather than forcing you to implement it repeatedly in every application, Laravel provides convenient methods for sending and validating email authentication requests.

Model preparation

Before you start, you need to verify whether your App\User model implements the Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail contract:

<?php 
    namespace App;
    use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
    use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
    use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
    class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail{ 
       use Notifiable;
       // ...
  }

Database Notes

Email Validation Field

Next, your user needs Contains an email_verified_at field to store the time when the email address was verified. By default, the data migration of the users table in the Laravel framework already includes this field. So, all you need to do is perform a database migration:

php artisan migrate

Routing

Laravel's Auth\VerificationController class Contains the necessary logic for sending verification links and verification emails. By passing the verify option to the Auth::routes method, you can register the required routes for this controller:

Auth::routes(['verify' => true]);

Protect Routes

Routing middleware can be used to allow only authenticated users to access specified routes. Laravel comes with the verified middleware, which is defined in Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\EnsureEmailIsVerified. Since this middleware is already registered with your application's HTTP core, all you need to do is attach the middleware to the route definition:

Route::get('profile', function () { 
   // Only verified users may enter...
 })->middleware('verified');

View

Laravel will generate the view files necessary for email verification when you execute the make:auth command. The location of the view file is resources/views/auth/verify.blade.php , you can freely adjust the style of these views according to your application.

After email authentication

After email authentication, the user will automatically be redirected to /home. You can adjust the jump position after authentication by defining a redirectTo method or attribute in VerificationController.

protected $redirectTo = '/dashboard';

Event

Laravel can trigger events during the verification process. You should register the listener in EventServiceProvider:

/**
 * 应用程序的事件监听器
 *
 * @var array
 */
 protected $listen = [
     'Illuminate\Auth\Events\Verified' => [   
          'App\Listeners\LogVerifiedUser',   
        ],
  ];
