Add custom middleware to Laravel Passport endpoints

You can try this:Go to app/Providers/AuthServiceProvider and look for the function boot(). In this function you will see a line for registering routes for Passport. The default code is Passport::routes(). This routes() method accepts an options array as second argument. You can use it to set middlewares for Passport routes.

Passport::routes(null, ['middleware' => 'api']);

In the app/Providers/AuthServiceProvider include the Route facade by adding this use statement somewhere in the top:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Then on the boot() method, put the Passport::routes() inside a Route::group() like this:

Route::group(['middleware'=>'MyFunkyCustomMiddleware'], function(){    Passport::routes(); // <-- Replace this with your own version});

Hope that helps!

If you only need to add middleware to one Passport route for example /oauth/token, you can do it this way:

1. Look up the route you need by typing php artisan r:l
2. Check the controller and method used for this route, in out example it is going to be AccessTokenController@issueToken
3. Create the controller that extends AccessTokenController, you can leave it empty

namespace App\Http\Controllers;use Illuminate\Http\Request;use Laravel\Passport\Http\Controllers\AccessTokenController;class ApiTokenController extends AccessTokenController{}

4. Then create a route to that controller and method (as this controller inherits all the parent controller methods):

Route::middleware('MyMiddleware')->post('/api-token', 'ApiTokenController@issueToken');
