Laravel Passport Trying to get property 'secret' of non-object

Question

I'm using laravel and trying to make an Authenthication with Laravel passport. So I've done it by looking on the docs and youtube but I got this error. this is my AuthController that I requested and the error.

AuthController.php

public function register(Request $request) 
    {
        $validatedData = $request->validate([
            'name'=>'required|max:55',
            'email'=>'email|required|unique:users',
            'password'=>'required|confirmed',
            'who'=>'required'
        ]);

        $validatedData['password'] = bcrypt($request->password);

        $user = User::create($validatedData);

        // Get access token
        $accessToken = $user->createToken('authToken')->accessToken;

        return response(['user' => $user, 'access_token' => $accessToken]);
    }

ErrorsException

.

}

I've searched it on google but I can't found anything that mention Trying to get property 'secret' of non-object. I've tried php artisan passport:install so I got the personal_access_clients, but nothing's work.

NB

it's actually registered the user, but got this error response.

Answer 1

THIS IS FOR LARAVEL 7 AND LARAVEL/PASSPORT 9.0

The first thing is to run the php artisan passport:client --personal.

Inside your database table oauth_clients, under column name, look for Laravel Personal Access Client.

Copy the secret beside Laravel Personal Access Client.

Open AuthServiceProvider, then paste the secret inside the boot method where the CLIENT_SECRET is below:

Passport::personalAccessClientSecret(config('CLIENT_SECRET'));

And don't forget to also add the ID of the secret from your database.

Passport::personalAccessClientId(config('ID'));

Note: Use the quote along with the ID and CLIENT_SECRET as config() is expected to get a string.
