#Introduction

If you're like me, you find it a chore to always have to hash a password for your user model. With this cast, your passwords will automatically be hashed on your models. This cast only mutates values, so you will still see the hashed version of the password when referencing it on your models.

#Usage

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Rawilk\LaravelCasters\Casts\Password;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class User extends Model
{
    protected $casts = [
        'password' => Password::class,
    ];
}

This will hash the password using Laravel's Hash facade. You can still check against the hashed password using Hash::check():

$user = new User;
$user->password = 'secret';

$user->password; // $2y$10...

Hash::check('secret', $user->password); // true
Hash::check('something-wrong', $user->password); // false
