Where do I add the checkpoint code?

[zakiaziz]

ref: https://cartalyst.com/manual/sentinel/2.0#functions

$checkpoint = new Your\Custom\Checkpoint;
Sentinel::addCheckpoint('your_checkpoint', $checkpoint);

I'm on laravel 5.1, where in my code should this be put? I've tried adding it in boot() and register() in AppServiceProvider.php but It gives me an error.

It would help to know the error you're having :)

[zakiaziz]

woops sorry. At first there were no errors returning just a 500 and a blank page but that was due to the Exception handling package not being loaded yet. After removing that package I see this:

[brunogaspar]

Can't reproduce.

Can you paste your config/app.php file contents?

I recommend you to move all the package service provider to be before the application ones.

This should fix the issue for you.

[zakiaziz]

you mean like this?

    'providers' => [

        /*
         * Laravel Framework Service Providers...
         */
        Illuminate\Foundation\Providers\ArtisanServiceProvider::class,

        Illuminate\Cookie\CookieServiceProvider::class,
        Illuminate\Database\DatabaseServiceProvider::class,
        Illuminate\Encryption\EncryptionServiceProvider::class,

        App\Providers\EventServiceProvider::class,
        App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider::class,        

    ],

Unfortunately that gives me this error:

[brunogaspar]

Yes, like that and i can't reproduce that on my end :\

[zakiaziz]

Just incase this helps:

I've also added this class:

<?php
namespace App\Lib\Sentinel;
use Cartalyst\Sentinel\Checkpoints\CheckpointInterface;
use Cartalyst\Sentinel\Users\UserInterface;

class SuperAdminApprovedCheckpoint implements CheckpointInterface
{
    public function login(UserInterface $user)
    {
        //
    }

    public function check(UserInterface $user)
    {
        //
    }

    public function fail(UserInterface $user = null)
    {
        //
    }

    protected function isSuperAdminApproved(UserInterface $user)
    {
        // this code block does not get reached
        dd($user);
    }
}

and in config/cartalyst.sentinel.php :

    'checkpoints' => [
        'throttle',
        'activation',
        'superAdminApproved'
    ],

and in AppServiceProver.php:

    public function register()
    {
        //
        Sentinel::addCheckpoint('superAdminApproved', new \App\Lib\Sentinel\SuperAdminApprovedCheckpoint);

    }

[brunogaspar]

@zakiaziz Is it working as expected now? Considering we're not being able to reproduce it's a bit difficult to help debug.

[zakiaziz]

I have not tried it again, got caught up with some other work. I will be getting around to this tomorrow or this weekend. Will follow up.

[brunogaspar]

👍

[zakiaziz]

I was still not able to make it work. I've manually added in some code in my controller to do this check.

[brunogaspar]

What exactly doesn't work? Are you still having the error you mentioned here?

[zakiaziz]

@brunogaspar yes that's the error I get

[brunogaspar]

Sorry but i can't really reproduce this issue.

Here are my 2 test apps

• Laravel 5.1
• Laravel 5.2

To note that i'm only registering the checkpoint, not doing anything extra.

Going to close as i don't see this as being a bug on our end. If you have a way to duplicate this on a fresh app, let me know.
