Does not bind LDAP user to model with custom guard

[jschwendener]

• Laravel Version: v5.6.39
• Adldap2-Laravel Version: v6.0.7
• PHP Version: 7.2.8
• LDAP Type: OpenLDAP

First of all, thank you for this awesome package!

Description:

We run a project with two separate user tables and auth providers (the Laravel default users for the admin panel, and a 'members' table for frontend users).

We are using the Adldap2 package for authenticating only our frontend users, which are set up with a custom guard frontend in config/auth.php.

Everything went super smooth (we use the DatabaseUserProvider and import users to our DB), also authentication works 👍.

The only problem we have now is, that the LDAP user is not being bound to our Laravel member model. The HasLdapUser trait is set on the model. $user->ldap stays null after a successful auth attempt.

I found out that in the BindsLdapUserModel class, you are checking for a 'guard' property on the event object.

// We'll retrieve the auth guard if available.
if (property_exists($event, 'guard')) {
   $guard = $event->guard;
}

dd($guard) // returns null

Binding actually works if I manually set $guard = 'frontend'; in this file. So now my question is, how does the event even get a guard property? Am I missing something?

Our LoginController is more or less untouched and uses the Laravel default logic. Only thing we do is override the guard method to return our custom guard:

protected function guard() {
   return Auth::guard('frontend');
}

Hi, did you manage to solve this? I'm also facing a similar issue right now.

Hi @jschwendener, can you post your config/auth.php file?
