Meta tag token doesn't appear to be working about laravel-caffeine

[opheliadesign]

Ugh apparently I either had an idiot moment or just missed a step, the middleware line was missing. All better now :)

[mikebronner]

I was wondering if this might happen. I wonder if the session is not getting refreshed in your instance. (All my routes are hitting the Session middleware, which is critical. If the route doesn't hit that, then that's the issue.)

Can you post your kernel.php and routes.php here for me, and let me know which routes your AJAX is hitting?

[olimorris]

Sure.

My Kernal.php file looks like:

<?php

namespace App\Http;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Kernel as HttpKernel;

class Kernel extends HttpKernel
{
    /**
     * The application's global HTTP middleware stack.
     *
     * These middleware are run during every request to your application.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $middleware = [
        \Illuminate\Foundation\Http\Middleware\CheckForMaintenanceMode::class,
        \GeneaLabs\LaravelCaffeine\Http\Middleware\LaravelCaffeineDripMiddleware::class
    ];

    /**
     * The application's route middleware groups.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $middlewareGroups = [
        'web'  => [
            \App\Http\Middleware\EncryptCookies::class,
            \Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse::class,
            \Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class,
            \Illuminate\View\Middleware\ShareErrorsFromSession::class,
            \App\Http\Middleware\VerifyCsrfToken::class
        ],
        'home' => [
            \App\Http\Middleware\EncryptCookies::class,
            \Illuminate\Cookie\Middleware\AddQueuedCookiesToResponse::class,
            \Illuminate\Session\Middleware\StartSession::class
        ],
        'api'  => [
            'throttle:60,1'
        ]
    ];
    /**
     * The application's route middleware.
     *
     * These middleware may be assigned to groups or used individually.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $routeMiddleware = [
        'auth'              => \App\Http\Middleware\Authenticate::class,
        'auth.basic'        => \Illuminate\Auth\Middleware\AuthenticateWithBasicAuth::class,
        'guest'             => \App\Http\Middleware\RedirectIfAuthenticated::class,
        'throttle'          => \Illuminate\Routing\Middleware\ThrottleRequests::class,
        'auth.organisation' => \App\Http\Middleware\OrganisationAccessOnly::class,
        'auth.interim' => \App\Http\Middleware\InterimAccessOnly::class
    ];
}

and my routes.php file is:

<?php

Route::group(['middleware' => ['web']], function () {

    // This is the current route the app is on.
    Route::get('/jobs/{slug}', [
        'as' => 'viewjob',
        'middleware' => 'auth',
        'uses' => 'JobController@show'
    ]);

    // This is the route that is hit via the a post request.
    Route::post('/shortlist/add/{bidId}', [
        'as' => 'addtoshortlist',
        'middleware' => 'auth.organisation',
        'uses' => 'ShortlistController@store'
    ]);

}

and with vue.js I'm making a call like this:

        /*
         * Add a bid to a shortlist.
         */
        shortlistBid: function(bidId) {
            var self = this;

            this.shortlistingBid = bidId;

            this.$http.post('/shortlist/add/' + bidId)
                .success(function() {
                    this.getBids();
                    this.shortlistingBid = false;
                });
        },

The issue must be with the refreshing of the tokens in my view. Somehow it's not taking place.

Laravel 5.2 project, same overall issue here. I have Caffeine installed as instructed in the docs, it does appear to be working at all anymore. Receiving TokenMismatchException errors for the login form and Ajax pages throughout the project. Here is my CSRF token meta:

<meta name="csrf-token" id="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

I am also using VueJS, same settings as olimorris. Composer line:

"genealabs/laravel-caffeine": "^0.3.8",

@mikebronner I owe you an apology! I was using this on my dev machine and Laravel DebugBar always seems to these errors:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://myproject.dev/_debugbar/open?op=get&id=7993e14d3edd1828e4b3d1be9e39939b. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:3000' is therefore not allowed access

Now when I use BarryVDH's Cors package, these errors stop and Laravel Caffeine works.

@opheliadesign can you see if you're having the exact same issues then I think this issue can be closed!

[mikebronner]

Ah, that's good to know! I will add a note to the README.
