How to Check Current Password using Hash Check in Laravel?
Sometimes we are working on change password function at that time we require to check with current password in laravel 6, laravel 7, laravel 8, laravel 9, laravel 10 and laravel 11 app. If current password should be match otherwise return error with "your old password is wrong".
I mean we have one form with three input field like as bellow:
1)current password
2)new password
3)confirm new password
When it will submit form we have to check current password match with store database table password. So, laravel store hash password, that way we can't check directly equal to condition, But Laravel provide Hash facade, Hash::check() method will help you to do this task.
You can see bellow simple example method:
Example:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Hash;
class PasswordController extends Controller
{
/**
* Write code on Method
*
* @return response()
*/
public function changePassword(Request $request)
{
$input = $request->all();
$user = User::find(auth()->user()->id);
if(!Hash::check($input['current_password'], $user->password)){
dd('Return error with current passowrd is not match.');
}else{
dd('Write here your update password code');
}
}
}
It can help you...
