How to include thirdparty auth

[syphernl]

I'd like to use one of the available LDAP packages for Laravel to add support. However, I have tried a few but all of them are not working and resulting in an exception:

Driver [ldap] not supported. 

I have tried to replace the Guard in their vendor files with yours but this doesn't work either. Any suggestions on how to get this to work?

I have tried:

• https://github.com/ccovey/ldap-auth
• https://github.com/yuri-moens/l4-openldap
• https://github.com/dsdevbe/ldap-connector
• https://github.com/atorscho/laravel-ldap-42

But all of them end up with the same pesky error. Some packages (except for the ones listed) require replacement of the Auth provider which obviously wouldn't work. But those that simply add an additional one should right?

I have tried the workarounds from #18 but no dice either.

If your multi definition is:

 'multi' => array(
    // Uses Admin Model
    'admin' => array(
        'driver' => 'admin_auth',
        'model' => 'Admin'
    ),
    // Uses Member Model
    'member' => array(
        'driver' => 'member_auth',
        'model' => 'Member'
    )
),

You should be able to call extend off the definitions:

Auth::admin()->extend('admin_auth', ...

Awesome, seems to work fine! This really should be documented.

Thanks!

I'm having the same issue, I am working with strebl/l5-ldap-auth and I'm not sure how or were I extend it. is there any documentation on this?

The documentation for this can be found on the laravel documentation, this package simply extends Auth slightly, where before you would do Auth::extend() now you do Auth::admin()->extend().
