Hi Dev,

This tutorial will give you example of laravel 8 two factor authentication with sms. This tutorial will give you simple example of laravel 8 2fa with sms authentication. you can see two factor authentication twilio laravel 8. This article goes in detailed on 2 factor auth laravel 8 sms.

In this example, i will give you step by step all info how to add two factor authentication with twilio sms in laravel 8. we will use twilio service for sending mobile text message. you can follow bellow step and make it done.

Let's see full example code here:

Step 1 : Install Laravel

first of all we need to get fresh Laravel 8 version application using bellow command, So open your terminal OR command prompt and run bellow command:

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

Step 2: Install Twilio Configuration

First you need to create and add phone number. then you can easily get account SID, Token and Number.

Create Account from here: www.twilio.com.

Next add Twilio Phone Number

Next you can get account SID, Token and Number and add on .env file as like bellow:

.env

TWILIO_SID=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

TWILIO_TOKEN=XXXXXXXXXXXXX

TWILIO_FROM=+XXXXXXXXXXX

next, we need to install twilio/sdk composer package to use twilio api. so let's run bellow command:

composer require twilio/sdk

Step 3: Create Migration for table

here, we need to create "user_codes" table and need to add phone field on users table. so let's create migration as bellow:

php artisan make:migration create_user_codes

After this command you will find one file in following path "database/migrations" and you have to put bellow code in your migration file for create user_codes table.

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

class CreateUserCodes extends Migration

{

/**

* Run the migrations.

*

* @return void

*/

public function up()

{

Schema::create('user_codes', function (Blueprint $table) {

$table->id();

$table->integer('user_id');

$table->string('code');

$table->timestamps();

});

Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {

$table->string('phone')->nullable();

});

}

/**

* Reverse the migrations.

*

* @return void

*/

public function down()

{

Schema::dropIfExists('user_codes');

}

}

Now you have to run this migration by following command:

php artisan migrate

Step 4: Create and Update Models

Here, we need to update user model and create new model call UserCode. so let's update code:

app/Models/User.php

<?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;

use Exception;

use Twilio\Rest\Client;

class User extends Authenticatable

{

use HasApiTokens, HasFactory, Notifiable;

/**

* The attributes that are mass assignable.

*

* @var string[]

*/

protected $fillable = [

'name',

'email',

'password',

'phone'

];

/**

* The attributes that should be hidden for serialization.

*

* @var array

*/

protected $hidden = [

'password',

'remember_token',

];

/**

* The attributes that should be cast.

*

* @var array

*/

protected $casts = [

'email_verified_at' => 'datetime',

];

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function generateCode()

{

$code = rand(1000, 9999);

UserCode::updateOrCreate(

[ 'user_id' => auth()->user()->id ],

[ 'code' => $code ]

);

$receiverNumber = auth()->user()->phone;

$message = "2FA login code is ". $code;

try {

$account_sid = getenv("TWILIO_SID");

$auth_token = getenv("TWILIO_TOKEN");

$twilio_number = getenv("TWILIO_FROM");

$client = new Client($account_sid, $auth_token);

$client->messages->create($receiverNumber, [

'from' => $twilio_number,

'body' => $message]);

} catch (Exception $e) {

info("Error: ". $e->getMessage());

}

}

}

app/Models/UserCode.php

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class UserCode extends Model

{

use HasFactory;

public $table = "user_codes";

protected $fillable = [

'user_id',

'code',

];

}

Step 5: Create Auth Scaffold

Here, we will use laravel ui package and create auth scaffold with bootstrap framework. let's follow bellow command:

composer require laravel/ui

now let's run command for creating auth scaffold:

php artisan ui bootstrap --auth

Step 6: Create Middleware

In this step, we will create new middleware for check user has 2fa or not. so let's create new middleware with following command and code:

php artisan make:middleware Check2FA

app/Http/Middleware/Check2FA.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Middleware;

use Closure;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use Session;

class Check2FA

{

/**

* Handle an incoming request.

*

* @param \Illuminate\Http\Request $request

* @param \Closure $next

* @return mixed

*/

public function handle(Request $request, Closure $next)

{

if (!Session::has('user_2fa')) {

return redirect()->route('2fa.index');

}

return $next($request);

}

}

app/Http/Kernel.php

<?php

namespace App\Http;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Kernel as HttpKernel;

class Kernel extends HttpKernel

{

...

...

...

protected $routeMiddleware = [

'auth' => \App\Http\Middleware\Authenticate::class,

'auth.basic' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\AuthenticateWithBasicAuth::class,

'cache.headers' => \Illuminate\Http\Middleware\SetCacheHeaders::class,

'can' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\Authorize::class,

'guest' => \App\Http\Middleware\RedirectIfAuthenticated::class,

'password.confirm' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\RequirePassword::class,

'signed' => \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ValidateSignature::class,

'throttle' => \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ThrottleRequests::class,

'verified' => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\EnsureEmailIsVerified::class,

'2fa' => \App\Http\Middleware\Check2FA::class,

];

}

Step 7: Create Route

We need to create register routes as bellow:

routes/web.php

<?php

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

/*

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

| Web Routes

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

|

| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These

| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which

| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!

|

*/

Route::get('/', function () {

return view('welcome');

});

Auth::routes();

Route::get('/home', [App\Http\Controllers\HomeController::class, 'index'])->name('home')->middleware('2fa');

Route::get('2fa', [App\Http\Controllers\TwoFAController::class, 'index'])->name('2fa.index');

Route::post('2fa', [App\Http\Controllers\TwoFAController::class, 'store'])->name('2fa.post');

Route::get('2fa/reset', [App\Http\Controllers\TwoFAController::class, 'resend'])->name('2fa.resend');

Step 8: Create and Update Controllers

Here, we need to update RegisterController and LoginController controller file.

Also we will create TwoFAController new controller file and write code there. so let's create these files:

app/Http/Controllers/Auth/RegisterController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider;

use App\Models\User;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\RegistersUsers;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;

class RegisterController extends Controller

{

/*

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

| Register Controller

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

|

| This controller handles the registration of new users as well as their

| validation and creation. By default this controller uses a trait to

| provide this functionality without requiring any additional code.

|

*/

use RegistersUsers;

/**

* Where to redirect users after registration.

*

* @var string

*/

protected $redirectTo = RouteServiceProvider::HOME;

/**

* Create a new controller instance.

*

* @return void

*/

public function __construct()

{

$this->middleware('guest');

}

/**

* Get a validator for an incoming registration request.

*

* @param array $data

* @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Validator

*/

protected function validator(array $data)

{

return Validator::make($data, [

'name' => ['required', 'string', 'max:255'],

'phone' => ['required'],

'email' => ['required', 'string', 'email', 'max:255', 'unique:users'],

'password' => ['required', 'string', 'min:8', 'confirmed'],

]);

}

/**

* Create a new user instance after a valid registration.

*

* @param array $data

* @return \App\Models\User

*/

protected function create(array $data)

{

return User::create([

'name' => $data['name'],

'phone' => $data['phone'],

'email' => $data['email'],

'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),

]);

}

}

app/Http/Controllers/Auth/LoginController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

use App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use Auth;

use App\Models\UserCode;

class LoginController extends Controller

{

/*

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

| Login Controller

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------

|

| This controller handles authenticating users for the application and

| redirecting them to your home screen. The controller uses a trait

| to conveniently provide its functionality to your applications.

|

*/

use AuthenticatesUsers;

/**

* Where to redirect users after login.

*

* @var string

*/

protected $redirectTo = RouteServiceProvider::HOME;

/**

* Create a new controller instance.

*

* @return void

*/

public function __construct()

{

$this->middleware('guest')->except('logout');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function login(Request $request)

{

$request->validate([

'email' => 'required',

'password' => 'required',

]);

$credentials = $request->only('email', 'password');

if (Auth::attempt($credentials)) {

auth()->user()->generateCode();

return redirect()->route('2fa.index');

}

return redirect("login")->withSuccess('Oppes! You have entered invalid credentials');

}

}

app/Http/Controllers/TwoFAController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

use Session;

use App\Models\UserCode;

class TwoFAController extends Controller

{

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function index()

{

return view('2fa');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function store(Request $request)

{

$request->validate([

'code'=>'required',

]);

$find = UserCode::where('user_id', auth()->user()->id)

->where('code', $request->code)

->where('updated_at', '>=', now()->subMinutes(2))

->first();

if (!is_null($find)) {

Session::put('user_2fa', auth()->user()->id);

return redirect()->route('home');

}

return back()->with('error', 'You entered wrong code.');

}

/**

* Write code on Method

*

* @return response()

*/

public function resend()

{

auth()->user()->generateCode();

return back()->with('success', 'We sent you code on your mobile number.');

}

}

Step 9: Create and Update Blade File

Here, we will update register default blade file and create new 2fa blade file. so let's update following code here.

resources/views/auth/register.blade.php

@extends('layouts.app')

@section('content')

<div class="container">

<div class="row justify-content-center">

<div class="col-md-8">
