Laravel backpack framework admin and user login

[ondrejmlcak]

Hi, I am using the Backpack framework in my Laravel project. And I want to ask how to make login and registration for both admins and users. To keep it separate.

Backpack provides a separate authentication system for admins, which can be used alongside Laravel's default authentication for regular users. Here's how you can set up separate login and registration for both admins and users:

1. For admin authentication:

   • Backpack installs its own authentication system by default, accessible at /admin/login.
   • You can customize the admin authentication in config/backpack/base.php.

2. For user authentication:

   • Use Laravel's default authentication system.
   • You can set this up by running php artisan make:auth (for older Laravel versions) or use Laravel UI/Jetstream for newer versions.

To keep them separate:

1. Backpack uses a separate authentication guard, provider, and password broker, all named 'backpack' Backpack Authentication Docs.

2. The user login will use Laravel's default authentication settings from config/auth.php.

3. Admin login will be at /admin/login, while user login will typically be at /login.

4. You can customize the admin model used by Backpack in config/backpack/base.php by changing the user_model_fqn value Backpack Base Config.

5. To ensure only admins can access the admin panel, modify the app/Http/Middleware/CheckIfAdmin.php file, particularly the checkIfUserIsAdmin($user) method Backpack Installation Docs.

By following these steps, you'll have separate authentication systems for admins and users, keeping them distinct and secure.
