using both regular authentication and http basic authentication

Question

So I want to have authentication via HTTP Basic Auth --and-- authentication which accepts a username / password via HTML. I also want the username / password combo to be different for each one. To that end I figured I'd use the following pre-built middleware:

Illuminate/Auth/Middleware/Authenticate
Illuminate/Auth/Middleware/AuthenticateWithBasicAuth

My question is... can I use both regular authentication authentication and HTTP Basic authentication at the same time whilst having a different username / password combo for both?

Have you tried it? Should be pretty quick to just enable both middleware and see if it works. Your users are going to love you. — miken32

https://medium.com/oceanize-geeks/laravel-middleware-basic-auth-implementation-88b777361b5c pointed me in the necessary direction. Basically, per that tutorial, Illuminate/Auth/Middleware/AuthenticateWithBasicAuth was not used. A new from-scratch middleware was created and then added to app/Http/Kernel.php
