In Laravel old version we are doing email verification process manually, but in Laravel 6 they provide in build email verification setup for new registered users to must have to verify his email before proceed. You just need to make some basic setup with need to use middleware, routes and mail configuration.
Just follow this tutorial from scratch and you will set up for email verification in Laravel 6 project.
First of all, we need to get fresh Laravel 6 version application using bellow command because we are going from scratch, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel blog
In this step, we need to add database configuration details on .env file. So let’s create username, password etc. So let’s add.
.env
APP_URL=http://localhost:8000
DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laravel572
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=root
After added database configuration, you need to run default migration of laravel by following command:
php artisan migrate

Here, we need to add email configuration in .env file. We are sending email after user registration so we need to add email smtp details for send email.
.env
MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=smtp.gmail.com
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=youremail@gmail.com
MAIL_PASSWORD=yourpass
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=tls
You have to follow few step to make auth in your laravel 6 application.
First you need to install laravel/ui package as like bellow:
composer require laravel/ui
Now you can use quick way to create registration, login and forgot password with routes by auth command, So simply run bellow command to create:
php artisan ui bootstrap --auth
Now you need to run npm command, otherwise you can not see better layout of login and register page.
Install NPM:
npm install
Run NPM:
npm run dev
In last step, we need to add email verification setup, so basically we have to add email verification class implement in user model, use middleware for protection. So just update like as bellow files one by one:
app/User.php
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Notifications\Notifiable;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\User as Authenticatable;
class User extends Authenticatable implements MustVerifyEmail
{
use Notifiable;
/**
* The attributes that are mass assignable.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $fillable = [
'name', 'email', 'password',
];
/**
* The attributes that should be hidden for arrays.
*
* @var array
*/
protected $hidden = [
'password', 'remember_token',
];
}
routes/web.php
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Auth::routes(['verify' => true]);
Route::get('/home', 'HomeController@index')->name('home');
app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class HomeController extends Controller
{
/**
* Create a new controller instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
$this->middleware(['auth','verified']);
}
/**
* Show the application dashboard.
*
* @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
*/
public function index()
{
return view('home');
}
}
