In this post, I am going to explain about login with OTP in LARAVEL 9.

After [Installing Laravel](https://dev.to/shanisingh03/how-to-install-laravel-9-25c4) and [Laravel Authentication](https://dev.to/shanisingh03/how-to-make-login-registration-in-laravel-9-1p2n) open code project in code editor & follow the steps below.

## Step - 1

### Add Mobile Number in `users` table

To add a column, create a Migration by running command below.
```php
php artisan make:migration add_mobile_no_in_users_table
```
The Command will generate a file in `database/migrations` folder, open the migration file and update the code below.

```php
<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->string('mobile_no')->nullable()->after('username');
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->dropColumn('mobile_no');
        });
    }
};
```
Now run the migration by command, it will add mobile number in users table.

```php
php artisan migrate
```

Now Update the `app/Http/Controllers/Auth/RegisterController.php` to register a user with mobile Number.

```php
<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Providers\RouteServiceProvider;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\RegistersUsers;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Hash;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;

class RegisterController extends Controller
{
    
    use RegistersUsers;

    /**
     * Where to redirect users after registration.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $redirectTo = RouteServiceProvider::HOME;

    /**
     * Create a new controller instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        $this->middleware('guest');
    }

    /**
     * Get a validator for an incoming registration request.
     *
     * @param  array  $data
     * @return \Illuminate\Contracts\Validation\Validator
     */
    protected function validator(array $data)
    {
        return Validator::make($data, [
            'name' => ['required', 'string', 'max:255'],
            'username' => ['required', 'string', 'max:255'],
            'mobile_no' => ['required', 'number', 'max:10'],
            'email' => ['required', 'string', 'email', 'max:255', 'unique:users'],
            'password' => ['required', 'string', 'min:8', 'confirmed'],
        ]);
    }

    /**
     * Create a new user instance after a valid registration.
     *
     * @param  array  $data
     * @return \App\Models\User
     */
    protected function create(array $data)
    {
        return User::create([
            'name' => $data['name'],
            'username' => $data['username'],
            'mobile_no' => $data['mobile_no'],
            'email' => $data['email'],
            'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
        ]);
    }
}
```

Next update the 'resources/views/auth/register.blade.php' and update code below.

```php
@extends('layouts.app')

@section('content')
<div class="container">
    <div class="row justify-content-center">
        <div class="col-md-8">
            <div class="card">
                <div class="card-header">{{ __('Register') }}</div>

                <div class="card-body">
                    <form method="POST" action="{{ route('register') }}">
                        @csrf

                        <div class="row mb-3">
                            <label for="name" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Name') }}</label>

                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="name" type="text" class="form-control @error('name') is-invalid @enderror" name="name" value="{{ old('name') }}" required autocomplete="name" autofocus>

                                @error('name')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
                                    </span>
                                @enderror
                            </div>
                        </div>

                        <div class="row mb-3">
                            <label for="username" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Username') }}</label>

                            <div class="col-md-6">

                                @error('username')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>

                                @enderror
                            </div>
                        </div>

                        <div class="row mb-3">
                            <label for="mobile_no" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Mobile No') }}</label>

                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="mobile_no" type="text" class="form-control @error('mobile_no') is-invalid @enderror" name="mobile_no" value="{{ old('mobile_no') }}" required autocomplete="mobile_no" autofocus>

                                @error('mobile_no')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>

                                @enderror

                                @error('password')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
                                    </span>
                                @enderror

                        <div class="row mb-3">

                            </div>

                        <div class="row mb-0">
                            <div class="col-md-6 offset-md-4">
                                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
                                    {{ __('Register') }}
                                </button>
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </form>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
@endsection
```

The Register form will look like.

![Register](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/phb7e89a0p9nkekowyio.png)

## Step - 2
Create VerificationCode Model with Migration by running Command below.

```php
php artisan make:model VerificationCode -m
```
This command will create a VerificationCode model in `app/models` folder and a migration in `database/migrations`.

Let's open the VerificationCode Model from `app/Models/VerificationCode.php` & update with code below.

```php
<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class VerificationCode extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;

    protected $fillable = ['user_id', 'otp', 'expire_at'];
}
```

Now update migration of `verification_codes` table, open file from `database/migrations` and update the code below.

```php
<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;

return new class extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('verification_codes', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->bigInteger('user_id');
            $table->string('otp');
            $table->timestamp('expire_at')->nullable();
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('verification_codes');
    }
};
```
Next, run the migration to create `verification_codes` table.

```php
php artisan migrate
```

## Step - 3
Create AuthOtpController by running command
```php
php artisan make:controller AuthOtpController
```
This controller will handle all the operation related to Authentication using OTP.
Open the controller from `app/Http/Controllers/AuthOtpController.php` & Update the controller by the code below.

```php
<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Carbon\Carbon;
use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\VerificationCode;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;

class AuthOtpController extends Controller
{
    // Return View of OTP Login Page
    public function login()
    {
        return view('auth.otp-login');
    }

    // Generate OTP
    public function generate(Request $request)
    {
        # Validate Data
        $request->validate([
            'mobile_no' => 'required|exists:users,mobile_no'
        ]);

        # Generate An OTP
        $verificationCode = $this->generateOtp($request->mobile_no);

        $message = "Your OTP To Login is - ".$verificationCode->otp;
        # Return With OTP 
        
        return redirect()->route('otp.verification', ['user_id' => $verificationCode->user_id])->with('success',  $message); 
    }

    public function generateOtp($mobile_no)
    {
        $user = User::where('mobile_no', $mobile_no)->first();

        # User Does not Have Any Existing OTP
        $verificationCode = VerificationCode::where('user_id', $user->id)->latest()->first();

        $now = Carbon::now();

        if($verificationCode && $now->isBefore($verificationCode->expire_at)){
            return $verificationCode;
        }

        // Create a New OTP
        return VerificationCode::create([
            'user_id' => $user->id,
            'otp' => rand(123456, 999999),
            'expire_at' => Carbon::now()->addMinutes(10)
        ]);
    }

    public function verification($user_id)
    {
        return view('auth.otp-verification')->with([
            'user_id' => $user_id
        ]);
    }

    public function loginWithOtp(Request $request)
    {
        #Validation
        $request->validate([
            'user_id' => 'required|exists:users,id',
            'otp' => 'required'
        ]);

        #Validation Logic
        $verificationCode   = VerificationCode::where('user_id', $request->user_id)->where('otp', $request->otp)->first();

        $now = Carbon::now();
        if (!$verificationCode) {
            return redirect()->back()->with('error', 'Your OTP is not correct');
        }elseif($verificationCode && $now->isAfter($verificationCode->expire_at)){
            return redirect()->route('otp.login')->with('error', 'Your OTP has been expired');
        }

        $user = User::whereId($request->user_id)->first();

        if($user){
            // Expire The OTP
            $verificationCode->update([
                'expire_at' => Carbon::now()
            ]);

            Auth::login($user);
            
            return redirect('/home');
        }

        return redirect()->route('otp.login')->with('error', 'Your Otp is not correct');
    }
}
```

## Step - 4
Create Routes for OTP login and Verification, open `routes/web.php` and update the code at bottom.

```php
Route::controller(AuthOtpController::class)->group(function(){
    Route::get('/otp/login', 'login')->name('otp.login');
    Route::post('/otp/generate', 'generate')->name('otp.generate');
    Route::get('/otp/verification/{user_id}', 'verification')->name('otp.verification');
    Route::post('/otp/login', 'loginWithOtp')->name('otp.getlogin');
});
```
## Step - 5
Create view files in `resources/views/auth` folder, 
First create `otp-login.blade.php` and code below.

```php
@extends('layouts.app')

@section('content')
<div class="container">
    <div class="row justify-content-center">
        <div class="col-md-8">
            <div class="card">
                <div class="card-header">{{ __('OTP Login') }}</div>

                <div class="card-body">

                    @if (session('error'))
                    <div class="alert alert-danger" role="alert"> {{session('error')}} 
                    </div>
                    @endif

                    <form method="POST" action="{{ route('otp.generate') }}">
                        @csrf

                        <div class="row mb-3">
                            <label for="mobile_no" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-end">{{ __('Mobile No') }}</label>

                            <div class="col-md-6">
                                <input id="mobile_no" type="text" class="form-control @error('mobile_no') is-invalid @enderror" name="mobile_no" value="{{ old('mobile_no') }}" required autocomplete="mobile_no" autofocus placeholder="Enter Your Registered Mobile Number">

                                @error('mobile_no')
                                    <span class="invalid-feedback" role="alert">
                                        <strong>{{ $message }}</strong>
                                    </span>
                                @enderror
                            </div>
                        </div>

                        

                        <div class="row mb-0">
                            <div class="col-md-8 offset-md-4">
                                <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">
                                    {{ __('Generate OTP') }}
                                </button>

                                @if (Route::has('login'))
                                    <a class="btn btn-link" href="{{ route('login') }}">
                                        {{ __('Login With Username') }}
                                    </a>
                                @endif
                            </div>
                        </div>
                    </form>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
@endsection
```

Now create another view file `otp-verification.blade.php` & update the code below.

```php
@extends('layouts.app')

### Complete Flow will look like.

Open the project and go to `/otp/login` and it will look like.
![OTP LOGIN](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/mid5m6md25dij12tf9ct.png)

As soon as you enter the registered mobile number, it will redirect you to verification screen with OTP in flash message.

![OTP Verification](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/sceec4mxid8bq3o5yori.png)

After you enter the OTP, It will login and redirect you on dashboard.


I hope this will help login with `OTP` in LARAVEL 9.
