Laravel 9 Override Auth Register Method Example

Laravel provides default registration with a register controller. So, when we want to customize register() the method, then we have to override the register method inside that controller. So in this tutorial, I’m going to show you about laravel override register method. In this article, I will implement a laravel fortify custom register.

In this article, we will implement an auth register function in laravel. We will use as usual /regsiter route to laravel override the register route and then we will override the register method. See the example code to override register method in laravel 9:

app/Http/Controllers/Auth/RegisterController.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
{
    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Register Controller
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | This controller handles the registration of new users as well as their
    | validation and creation. By default this controller uses a trait to
    | provide this functionality without requiring any additional code.
    |
    */
  
    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');
    } 
  
    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function showRegistrationForm()
    {
        return view('register');
    }
  
    /**
     * Write code on Method
     *
     * @return response()
     */
    public function register(Request $request)
    {
        $this->validator($request->all())->validate();
  
        $this->create($request->all());
  
        return redirect("dashboard");
    }
  
    /**
     * 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'],
            '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'],
            'email' => $data['email'],
            'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
        ]);
    }
}
