Understanding Auth::routes() after php artisan make:auth

Laravel provides with register controller and Auth::routes() defines the use of this controller. I went to auth() function in Router.php and found that upon registration route calls register function in register controller,

$this->post('register', 'Auth\RegisterController@register');

but I cannot find this register function in RegisterController file. What is happening here ? Am I missing something? I am new to laravel.

Solution

  • The RegisterController uses a trait named Illuminate\Foundation\Auth\RegistersUsers in which you will find your register() method.

    Check out in the Laravel's source code here.
