validate() fails due to steam api 403 error

[JABirchall]

The steam API request on line 157 is returning 403 error causing a login loop..

I narrowed the issue down the \Config::get('steam-auth.api_key') is not getting the api-key or putting it in the request URL. Replacing this with the API resolves the issue.

You found the solution?

Yeah, your \Config call does not aquired the api key. my fix was just just replace the whole call with the API key

I also made other changes to the code example i made all the Protected members in steaminfo.php public for my own flexability.

I would also suggest you use my alternate method of validating if a user is registered to create etc, as it also supports dual authentication if some devs wish to have that flexibility.

public function steamAuth(SteamAuth $steam)
{
    if($steam->validate()) {
        $steamInfo = $steam->getUserInfo();

        $validator = Validator::make((array)$steamInfo, [
            'steamID64' => 'required|numeric',
            'nick' => 'required',
            'profileURL' => 'required|url',
            'profilePicture' => 'url',
        ]);

        if($validator->fails())
            return $steam->redirect();

        if(Auth::check() === TRUE)// Dual Auth compatibility
            $user = Auth::User();
        else
            $user = User::firstOrNew(['steamId' => $steamInfo->steamID64]);

        $user->username = $user->username ?? $steamInfo->nick; //PHP7.0 >= ONLY use isset($user->username) ? $user->username : $steamInfo->nick; if PHP version < 7.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.*
        $user->steamId = $steamInfo->steamID64;
        $user->profilePicture = $steamInfo->profilePicture;
        $user->profilePictureLarge = $steamInfo->profilePictureFull;
        $user->profileURL = $steamInfo->profileURL;
        $user->save();

        if($user->exists === true)
            Auth::login($user, true);
        else
            return $steam->redirect();

    }else
        return $steam->redirect();
    return redirect('/');
}
