Create oAuth 2 server using Laravel Passport

In this tutorial we will see how to create OAuth 2 using Laravel Passport package
You can simply follow the steps given below
1 Create new Laravel project
2 Install Passport and Configure
3 Create User Interface for managing OAuth clients and tokens
4 Testing OAuth with consumer application

1 Create new Laravel project

Download the Laravel via composer

composer.phar global require "laravel/installer"

1	composer.phar global require "laravel/installer"

Create new Laravel project named oauth

php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel oauth

1	php composer.phar create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel oauth

Generate the Authentication scaffolding

php artisan make:Auth

1	php artisan make:Auth

2 Install Passport via the Composer package manager

You can install the Laravel Password package using following command

composer require laravel/passport

1	composer require laravel/passport

Now register the Passport service provider in the providers array of the config\app.php file

Laravel\Passport\PassportServiceProvider::class,

Now you can run the migration command to create tables in the database

php artisan migrate

1	php artisan migrate

Now you can create the encryption keys needed to generate secure access tokens

php artisan passport:install

1	php artisan passport:install

Add the Laravel\Passport\HasApiTokens trait to your App\User model

<?php

namespace App;

use Laravel\Passport\HasApiTokens;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use HasApiTokens, Notifiable;
}

<?php

namespace App;

use Laravel\Passport\HasApiTokens;

use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;

class User extends Authenticatable

{

use HasApiTokens, Notifiable;

}

Next step is to register the routes necessary to issue access tokens and revoke access tokens, clients, and personal access tokens
Add the following code to boot method of the App\Providers\AuthServiceProvider

  public function boot()
    {
        $this->registerPolicies();

        Passport::routes();
    }

public function boot()

{

$this->registerPolicies();

Passport::routes();

}

Finally you can update the api of the guard in config\auth.php

    'guards' => [
        'web' => [
            'driver' => 'session',
            'provider' => 'users',
        ],

        'api' => [
            'driver' => 'passport',
            'provider' => 'users',
        ],
    ],

'guards' => [

'web' => [

'driver' => 'session',

'provider' => 'users',

'api' => [

'driver' => 'passport',

'provider' => 'users',

3 Create User Interface for managing OAuth clients and tokens

Now I am going to create interface in OAuth server to manage client applications

 $ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=passport-components
Copied Directory [/vendor/laravel/passport/resources/assets/js/components] To [/resources/assets/js/components/passport]
Publishing complete.

$ php artisan vendor:publish --tag=passport-components

Copied Directory [/vendor/laravel/passport/resources/assets/js/components] To [/resources/assets/js/components/passport]

Publishing complete.

Copy the following code to resources/assets/js/app.js

 Vue.component(
        'passport-authorized-clients',
        require('./components/passport/AuthorizedClients.vue')
    );

    Vue.component(
        'passport-clients',
        require('./components/passport/Clients.vue')
    );

    Vue.component(
        'passport-personal-access-tokens',
        require('./components/passport/PersonalAccessTokens.vue')
    );

Vue.component(

'passport-authorized-clients',

require('./components/passport/AuthorizedClients.vue')

);

Vue.component(

'passport-clients',

require('./components/passport/Clients.vue')

);

Vue.component(

'passport-personal-access-tokens',

require('./components/passport/PersonalAccessTokens.vue')

);

Now you can use NPM to rebuild the assets using Webpack

  npm install
  npm run dev

1 2	npm install npm run dev

When you complete the rebuilding you can create a page to see OAuth clients and Personal Access Tokens
Run the following code in terminal

php artisan make:controller SettingsController

1	php artisan make:controller SettingsController

This will create the SettingsController.php file in App\Http\Controllers namespace. You can add the following code to controller

class SettingsController extends Controller
{
    public function __construct()
        {
            $this->middleware('auth');
        }

        public function index()
        {
            return view('settings');
        }
}

class SettingsController extends Controller

{

public function __construct()

{

$this->middleware('auth');

}

public function index()

{

return view('settings');

}

Now you can create the resources\views\settings.blade.php file and add the following code

@extends('layouts.app')

    @section('content')
    <div class="container">
        <div class="row">
            <div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2">            
                <passport-authorized-clients></passport-authorized-clients>
                <passport-clients></passport-clients>
                <passport-personal-access-tokens></passport-personal-access-tokens>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    @endsection

@extends('layouts.app')

@section('content')

<passport-authorized-clients></passport-authorized-clients>

<passport-clients></passport-clients>

<passport-personal-access-tokens></passport-personal-access-tokens>

</div>

@endsection

This is VUE components you added in earlier steps and this will generate all HTML code needed to display client details

Finally, you can add the following code to /routes/web.php file

Route::get('/settings', 'SettingsController@index')->name('settings');

1	Route::get('/settings', 'SettingsController@index')->name('settings');

Now you can start the server

php artisan serve

1	php artisan serve

When open the http://127.0.0.1:8000/settings you can see the following screen

4 Testing OAuth with consumer application

In this section we are going to create another Laravel project and do the testing with OAuth server

Crete new Laravel project

laravel new oauth-client

1	laravel new oauth-client

Next I am going to install the Guzzle

composer install guzzlehttp/guzzle

1	composer install guzzlehttp/guzzle

Now you can start the server on port 8001

  php artisan serve --port=8001

1	php artisan serve --port=8001

Now I am going to make routes to test the application

Route::get('/', function () {
        $query = http_build_query([
            'client_id' => 3, // Replace with Client ID
            'redirect_uri' => 'http://127.0.0.1:8001/callback',
            'response_type' => 'code',
            'scope' => ''
        ]);

        return redirect('http://127.0.0.1:8000/oauth/authorize?'.$query);
});

Route::get('/', function () {

$query = http_build_query([

'client_id' => 3, // Replace with Client ID

'redirect_uri' => 'http://127.0.0.1:8001/callback',

'response_type' => 'code',

'scope' => ''

]);

return redirect('http://127.0.0.1:8000/oauth/authorize?'.$query);

});

So this the route entry we need to send authorization request to the OAuth server

Next you can add the following route code to same web.php file and this is the callback handler. This route will receive the code from the OAuth server. It again sends back the request to OAuth server with other parameters like client_id,client_secret etc. After sending the request it will receive the token and it will save in the session

Route::get('/callback', function (Request $request) {
        $response = (new GuzzleHttp\Client)->post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/oauth/token', [
            'form_params' => [
                'grant_type' => 'authorization_code',
                'client_id' => 3, // Replace with Client ID
                'client_secret' => '19PVO5g3ShcbPzmuDGvmJDGCZ2riR5gCdmfion56', // Replace with client secret
                'redirect_uri' => 'http://127.0.0.1:8001/callback',
                'code' => $request->code,
            ]
        ]);

        session()->put('token', json_decode((string) $response->getBody(), true));

        return redirect('/posts');
});

Route::get('/callback', function (Request $request) {

$response = (new GuzzleHttp\Client)->post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/oauth/token', [

'form_params' => [

'grant_type' => 'authorization_code',

'client_id' => 3, // Replace with Client ID

'client_secret' => '19PVO5g3ShcbPzmuDGvmJDGCZ2riR5gCdmfion56', // Replace with client secret

'redirect_uri' => 'http://127.0.0.1:8001/callback',

'code' => $request->code,

]

]);

session()->put('token', json_decode((string) $response->getBody(), true));

return redirect('/posts');

});

When above route receives the token and save it the session, it will redirect to the following route and display the posts in json format

Route::get('/posts', function () {
        $response = (new GuzzleHttp\Client)->get('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/posts', [
            'headers' => [
                'Authorization' => 'Bearer '.session()->get('token.access_token')
            ]
        ]);

        return json_decode((string) $response->getBody(), true);
});

Route::get('/posts', function () {

$response = (new GuzzleHttp\Client)->get('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/posts', [

'headers' => [

'Authorization' => 'Bearer '.session()->get('token.access_token')

]

]);

return json_decode((string) $response->getBody(), true);

});
