authentication in laravel customising the login redirection

Question

I have an auth login page which logs in and redirects to home.blade.php

I need here to check whether user_type in user table is admin or Normal. If user_type=='admin' redirect to home else redirect to home_user page.

Route.php

Route::get('/home', 'HomeController@index')->name('home');

Route::get('/home_user', 'HomeController@index')->name('home_user');

or

protected function redirectTo() {
        if (Auth::user()->user_type == 'admin')
            return '/home';
        else
            return '/home_user';
    }

You can add a middleware for this purpose

As defined in the comment you can also use middleware but it could be the tricky way to do that. You can override the following function in the loginController.

protected function authenticated(Request $request, $user)
{
if (Auth::user()->user_type == 'admin') {// do your magic here
    return redirect('/home');
}

 return redirect('/home_user');
}

Below code, I have used for same. Try this.

 use Redirect;

 protected function authenticated($request, $user)
{
    if($user->is_admin == '1') {
        return Redirect::to('home');
    }elseif ($user->is_admin == '2') {
        Auth::logout();
        return Redirect::to('/admin/login');

    }else{
        return Redirect::to('studentDashboard');
    }

}

You have already solved the problem, but you have 1 mistake in your code. In laravel in order to redirect, you need to return redirect()->to() or redirect()->route() functions. all you need to do is replace your code with this:

protected function redirectTo() {
        if (auth()->user()->user_type == 'admin')
            return redirect()->route('home');
        else
            return redirect()->route('home_user');
}

Override the existing authenticated method from AuthenticatesUsers trait.

    /**
    * The user has been authenticated.
    *
    * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
    * @param  mixed  $user
    * @return mixed
    */
    protected function authenticated(Request $request, $user)
    {
        if (Auth::user()->user_type == 'admin')
            return redirect('/home');
        else
            return redirect('/home_user');
    }

Reference: authenticated method
