A simple way to implement Atlassian Crowd Authentication into your application.
SUPPORTED VERSIONS: Atlassian Crowd 2.1 and later versions only.
In the require key of composer.json file add the following
"glokon/crowd-auth": "*"
Run the Composer update comand
$ composer update
In your config/app.php add 'GLOKON\CrowdAuth\CrowdAuthServiceProvider' to the end of the providers array
'providers' => array(
'Illuminate\Foundation\Providers\ArtisanServiceProvider',
'Illuminate\Auth\AuthServiceProvider',
...
'GLOKON\CrowdAuth\CrowdAuthServiceProvider',
),Now generate the Crowd Auth migrations (make sure you have your database configuration set up):
$ php artisan migrate --package="glokon/crowd-auth"
This will setup three tables - crowd_users, crowd_groups and crowdgroup_crowduser.
Now publish the config files for this package:
$ php artisan config:publish "glokon/crowd-auth"
Once the configuration is published go to your config/packages/glokon/crowd-auth/crowdauth.php and configure your Atlassian Crowd settings.
After you have configured your Atlassian Crowd settings you need to change the driver setting in config/auth.php to:
'driver' => 'crowd-auth',Once all this is completed you can simply use Auth::Attempt() and it will attempt to login using your Atlassian Crowd server.
