Install

You can install the package via Composer:

$ composer require spatie/laravel-littlegatekeeper

Start by registering the package's the service provider:

// config/app.php (L5)

'providers' => [
  // ...
  'Spatie\LittleGateKeeper\LittleGateKeeperServiceProvider',
],

Next, publish the config files:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Spatie\LittleGateKeeper\LittleGateKeeperServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Finally, register the middleware:

// app/Http/Kernel.php

protected $routeMiddleware = [
    // ...
    'littlegatekeeper' => \Spatie\LittleGateKeeper\AuthMiddleware::class,
];

Usage

First set up the username and password in your configuration file.

You can protect your routes by applying the middleware:

Route::get('/', ['middleware' => 'littlegatekeeper', function () {
    return view('protectedpage');
}]);

If a user isn't logged in, he will be redirected to the url set in the config file (littlegatekeeper.authRoute).
