worn pine
I'm a front end dev and new to Laravel. I'm building a login page but I'm getting error in AuthController.php that says: Undefined method 'createToken'.
Github copilot is no help here. Not even Deepseek and chatGPT are able to help.
This is my code in AuthController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;
use Illuminate\Validation\ValidationException;
class AuthController extends Controller
{
public function login(Request $request)
{
$request->validate([
'email' => 'required|email',
'password' => 'required',
]);
if (Auth::attempt($request->only('email', 'password'))) {
$user = Auth::user();
return response()->json([
'user' => Auth::user(),
'token' => Auth::user()->createToken('auth_token')->plainTextToken,
]);
}
throw ValidationException::withMessages([
'email' => ['The provided credentials are incorrect.'],
]);
}
public function logout(Request $request)
{
$request->user()->currentAccessToken()->delete();
return response()->json(['message' => 'Logged out']);
}
}
This is my User model
<?php
namespace App\Models;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Laravel\Sanctum\HasApiTokens;
class User extends Authenticatable
{
use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;
protected $fillable = [
'name',
'email',
'password',
];
protected $hidden = [
'password',
'remember_token',
];
protected function casts(): array
{
return [
'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',
'password' => 'hashed',
];
}
}
