laravel 5.3 or more version login with username or email Example

All we some need is add a just property in app/Http/AuthController.php:

protected $username = 'username';

 Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\AuthenticatesUsers.php
 
   public function postLogin(Request $request)
    {
        $this->validate($request, [
            $this->loginUsername() => 'required', 'password' => 'required',
        ]);

And then let’s look into loginUsername() method.

    }

laravel Auth login with username or email

	
	<form method="POST" action="/auth/login">
    {!! csrf_field() !!}

    <div>
        Email
        <input type="text" placeholder="username or email" name="username" value="{{ old('username') }}">
    </div>

    <div>
        Password
        <input type="password" placeholder="your strong password" name="password" id="password">
    </div>

    <div>
        <input type="checkbox" name="remember"> Remember Me
    </div>

    <div>
        <button type="submit">Login</button>
    </div>
</form>

and in we AuthenticatesAndRegisterUsers.php we can change email address to simple username also.

public function postLogin(Request $request_data)
{
	$this->validate($request_data, [
		'username' => 'required', 'password' => 'required',
	]);

	$credentials = $request_data->only('username', 'password');

	if ($this->auth->attempt($credentials, $request_data->has('remember')))
	{
		return redirect()->intended($this->redirectPath());
	}

	return redirect($this->loginPath())
				->withInput($request_data->only('username', 'remember'))
				->withErrors([
					'username' => $this->getFailedLoginMessage(),
				]);
}
