Get public token without creating a new one

tappleby / laravel-auth-token

Hooks into the laravel auth module and provides an auth token upon success. This token is really only secure in https environment. This main purpose for this module was to provide an auth token to javascript web app which could be used to identify users on api calls.

Is there any method that I can retrieve a public (serialized) token without creating a new one?

Sorry for the delay in responding, currently there isnt an easy way to retrieve a token.

You would have to:

manually query db (or session) depending where its stored.
create a an instance of Tappleby\AuthToken\AuthToken($authIdentifier, $publicKey, $privateKey)
Pass the token to AuthToken::publicToken()
