Artisan command "make:auth" is not defined in Laravel 6

Question

I have a problem when creating login/auth in Laravel 6. I typed "make: auth" in the terminal and I get an error "Command" make: auth "appears not defined." Is there a solution for this?

Did you try php artisan make:auth? – Secundas

It looks like they decided to have all the auth included by default now – Caracas

@HarunYilmaz Yes I tried that – Aflame

Answer 1

Looks like L6 moves the Auth scaffolding into a separate package.

https://laravel.com/docs/6.0/authentication

Want to get started fast? Install the laravel/ui Composer package and run php artisan ui vue --auth in a fresh Laravel application.

@Vipertecpro Is your app Laravel 6? – Curtain

@Pastoralize And you did composer require laravel/ui to install UI? – Curtain

Answer 2

Laravel 9.x Starter Kits

Laravel Breeze

composer require laravel/breeze --dev
php artisan breeze:install

Breeze & React / Vue

php artisan breeze:install vue
 
Or...
 
php artisan breeze:install react
 
php artisan migrate
npm install
npm run dev

Laravel 8.x

This command will create a new application with all of the authentication scaffolding compiled and installed:

laravel new kitetail --jet

Laravel's laravel/jetstream package provides a quick way to scaffold all of the routes and views you need for authentication using a few simple commands:

composer require laravel/jetstream

// Install Jetstream with the Livewire stack...
php artisan jetstream:install livewire

// Install Jetstream with the Inertia stack...
php artisan jetstream:install inertia

Github : laravel /jetstream

Official Documentation : Laravel Jetstream Documentation

Laravel 7.x

composer require laravel/ui --dev

php artisan ui vue --auth

Laravel 6.x

Laravel's laravel/ui package provides a quick way to scaffold all of the routes and views you need for authentication using a few simple commands:

composer require laravel/ui "^1.0" --dev

php artisan ui vue --auth

After above commands, you'll get following output :-

Vue scaffolding installed successfully.
Please run "npm install && npm run dev" to compile your fresh scaffolding.
Authentication scaffolding generated successfully.

Now after running this command run this command, for Vue scaffolding

npm install && npm run dev

If you're get following error message

npm ERR! Your cache folder contains root-owned files, due to a bug in
npm ERR! previous versions of npm which has since been addressed.
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! To permanently fix this problem, please run:
npm ERR!   sudo chown -R 1000:1000 "/home/shiv/.npm"
npm ERR! code EACCES
npm ERR! syscall open

Then give permission user to access .npm files from system

sudo chown -R 1000:1000 "/home/system_user_name/.npm"

As i now understood clearly,running "sudo command is dangerous for npm configurations"

Is there a reason you're just basically reposting my answer? – Curtain

Umm No sir really not, i'm simply following laravel instructions I'm facing issues like, Unhandled rejection Error: EACCES: permission denied, so i'm updating my answer for further more information. – Pastoralize

I don't understand why I'm getting downvote on this, please explain or tell me to remove my answer ? – Pastoralize

It's a) a duplicate and b) sudo npm install can break things. – Curtain

Thank you sir for pushing me to understand such a blunder mistake, Thank you so much i updated my answer. Please review – Pastoralize

Answer 3

One major change introduced in Laravel 6.0 is the removal of php artisan make:auth Command

Basically, make:auth command was used to create the authentication scaffolding. The concept has not been removed, but the way of implementation has been changed

Update for Laravel 6: The New Way

Authentication support is now added with the help of a package now (More details)

The command to implement Auth is as follows:

composer require laravel/ui
php artisan ui vue --auth

This command will install a layout view, registration and login views, as well as routes for all authentication end-points. A HomeController will also be generated to handle post-login requests to your application's dashboard.

---

NOTE: If your Login and Register page only shows plain HTML. And CSS is not loading properly then run this two command:

npm install
npm run dev

Answer 4

In Laravel 6.0 make:auth no longer exists. Read more here

1 - First do this:

composer require laravel/ui

Note: Laravel UI Composer package is a new first-party package that extracts the UI portion of a Laravel project ( frontend scaffolding typically provided with previous releases of Laravel ) into a separate laravel/ui package. The separate package enables the Laravel team to update, develop and version UI scaffolding package separately from the primary framework and the main Laravel codebase.

2 - Then do this:

php artisan ui:auth

instead of

php artisan make:auth  ( which works for Laravel 5.8 and older versions )

It will generate the auth routes, a HomeController, auth views, and a app.blade.php layout file.

You can also generate the views only with:

php artisan ui:auth --views

The console command will prompt you to confirm overwriting auth files if you've already run the command before.

More Options here

// Generate basic scaffolding...
php artisan ui vue
php artisan ui react

and also:

// Generate login / registration scaffolding...
php artisan ui vue --auth
php artisan ui react --auth

hey @panjeh, what is the difference between php artisan ui:auth and php artisan ui vue? – Fransen

Answer 5

if you are using laravel 6, then try this command because with this command 'composer require laravel/ui' you will get only for Laravel 7.0 version and up,

        composer require laravel/ui "^1.0" --dev

After Install the laravel/ui using via Composer run below command for auth scaffolding package,If Using vue then use below one,

        php artisan ui vue --auth 

If using bootstrap then use below one,

        php artisan ui bootstrap --auth

in a fresh Laravel application or with use of the documentation.
