Encryption 337
19 public function storeSecret(Request $request, $id)
20 {
21 $user = User::findOrFail($id);
22
23 $user->fill([
24 'secret' => Crypt::encrypt($request->secret)
25 ])->save();
26 }
27 }
Note: Encrypted values are passed through serialize during encryption, which allows for
“encryption” of objects and arrays. Thus, non-PHP clients receiving encrypted values will
need to unserialize the data.
Decrypting A Value
Of course, you may decrypt values using the decrypt method on the Crypt facade. If the value can
not be properly decrypted, such as when the MAC is invalid, an Illuminate\Contracts\Encryption\DecryptExcept
will be thrown:
1 use Illuminate\Contracts\Encryption\DecryptException;
2
3 try {
4 $decrypted = Crypt::decrypt($encryptedValue);
5 } catch (DecryptException $e) {
