Sentinel: Fork - few important changes to me

• adding Finnish Translation
• allow password config that does not send password over email
• busy, took a fast track, hope to fix those and push to rydurham branch

Sentinel: Sentry Implementation for Laravel 4

This pacakge provides an implementation of Sentry 2 for Laravel 4. By default it uses Bootstrap 3.0, but you can make use of whatever UI you want.

This package is based on my L4withSentry demo repo.

Instructions

Add this package to your composer.json file:

"require": {
    "laravel/framework": "4.1.*",
    "rydurham/sentinel": "1.*"
},

Run Composer Update

Make sure you have configured your app's Database and Mail settings.

Add the Service Provider to your app/config/app.php file:

'providers' => array(
     ...
    'Sentinel\SentinelServiceProvider',  
    )

Run the Migrations:

php artisan migrate --package=rydurham/sentinel

Seed the Database:

php artisan db:seed --class="SentinelDatabaseSeeder"

Publish the package assets:

php artisan asset:publish rydurham/sentinel

Set a "Home" Route. This package requires that you have a named 'home' route in your routes.php file:

// Set Home Route
 Route::get('/', array('as' => 'home', function()
{
    return View::make('home');
}));

Optional: Publish Views

php artisan view:publish rydurham/sentinel

Optional: Publish Configuration

php artisan config:publish rydurham/sentinel

The config file will allow you to control many aspects of Sentinels operation. Take a look to see what options are available.

Usage: Filters and Routes

Once installed, Sentinel adds a series of routes for User interaction. You will need to add links to these routes in your app's layouts.

• yoursite.tld/login
• yoursite.tld/logout
• yoursite.tld/register
• yoursite.tld/users - For user management. Only available to admins
• yoursite.tld/groups - For group management. Only available to admins.

Sentinel also provides these filters which you can use to prevent unauthorized access to your app's routes & methods.

• Sentinel\auth - Require users to be successfully logged in
• Sentinel\inGroup:Admins - Block access to all but members of the Admin group. If you create your own groups, you can use it as such: Sentinel\inGroup:[YourGroup].
