README

laravel-wp-user

Use a WordPress site as the authentication provider for a Laravel app.

Also can act as a WordPress REST API client.

Goals and Status

• Authenticate as a WordPress user from Laravel - done.
• Provide an API client for querying the WordPress REST API from Laravel - done.
• Provide a WordPress based middleware. - Next step

Usage

Setting Up WordPress

This library could use other authentication systems but only JWT is implimented.

• Have WordPress 4.7 or later
• Install JWT Authentication for the WP REST API
• Set the right constants as describe in the plugin's readme.
• Activate plugin

Add WordPress Login To Your App

• Config Publish config and set url for WordPress site or use WPUSERWPURL in your .env URL must include /wp-json/ (or whatever) you use WITH trailing slash.

• Add a login route, for example

  e::post('/wp-login', function( \calderawp\WPUser\JWTAuthenticator $authenticator, \Illuminate\Http\Request $request ){
  $request->has( 'username' ) && $request->has( 'password' ) ){
  if( $authenticator->login( $request->input( 'username'), $request->input( 'password' ) ) ){
      $user = \calderawp\WPUser\Model\Model::fromAuth( $authenticator );
  }
  
  //return an error;
  
  
  

NOTES:

• This uses a User Model from the package. No migration is provided to save.
• You could save the WP User in database, with token.

Example To Authenticate User

//SUPER IMPORTANT to use a trialing slash after wp-json
$wpApiUrl = 'https://roysivan.com/wp-json/';
$authClient = \calderawp\WPUser\Factory::jwtAuthenticator( $wpApiUrl, [ 
    //args to pass to constructor of GuzzleHttp\Client
 ] );

//BTW- in local testing, might want to set verify false
// $authClient = \calderawp\WPUser\Factory::jwtAuthenticator( $wpApiUrl, [ 'verify' => false ] );


//authenticate
if( $authClient->login( 'josh', '12345' ) ){
    $api = \calderawp\WPUser\Factory::jwtAuthenitcated( $wpApiUrl, $authClient->getUser(), 
        [ 
            //args to pass to constructor of GuzzleHttp\Client
         ] 
    );
    $me = $api->me();
}
