If you're upgrading from Laraguard 4.0, you will need to check your code.
Laraguard 5.0 has removed the jsonSerialize() method in the trait SerializesSharedSecret, which is used by the TwoFactorAuthentication model. If you need a JSON respresentation of the secret, use the toJson() method directly.
$user = User::find(1);
return $user->createTwoFactor()->toJson();If you're upgrading from Laraguard 3.0, you will need to migrate.
Laraguard 4.0 encrypts the Shared Secret and Recovery Codes. This adds an extra layer of protection in case the database records are leaked to the wild, as recommended by the RFC 6238.
To upgrade, ensure you have installed doctrine/dbal so the migration can run, as it needs to change a column type.
composer require doctrine/dbal
Then, publish the upgrading migration and run it:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="DarkGhostHunter\Laraguard\LaraguardServiceProvider" --tag="upgrade"
php artisan migrate
The migration will automatically encrypt all shared secrets, while also reverting the decryption on rolling back migrations.
