Comparing password from inputfield with database | Laravel

Question

I want to compare the password from the inputfield with the entry in the database. If the input from the user is correct he will get redirected. If its wrong nothing should happen.

I have this code in my Controller:

   public function check(check $check){

   if (User::where('password', '=', Input::get('password'))->exists()) {

      return redirect()->route('site.create');

   }

   Site::return($request->all());
}

And something like this stands in my view:

<div class="form-group row">
    <label for="password" class="col-md-4 col-form-label text-md-right">{{ __('please type in your password') }}</label>
<div class="col-md-6">
    <input id="password" type="password" class="form-control" name="password" required>

Thank you for every help i appreciate it.

I only want to check a password. I dont want to log in users — Devi

Are you inserting the passwords in database as it is or in hashes? — Rob

You cannot directly compare passwords in Laravel. Passwords are one way hashed only.

Hash::check('plain-text', $hashedPassword);

For more information https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/hashing

$user =  User::where('email', '=', Input::get('email'))->first();

if( Hash::check(Input::get('password'), $user->password)){
//passwrd is equal

}

If you just want to check the passwrd you can use Hash

If you want to logged in users directly with password.

if (Auth::attempt(['password' => $password])) {
    // Password matches and logged in.
}

Try to use this:

if (Hash::check('yourpassword', Input::get('password'))) {
    return redirect()->route('site.create');
}

You can also use:

password_verify() in PHP. See this link: http://php.net/manual/en/function.password-verify.php
