2. Auth & database

Add users, run migrations, and protect routes with session authentication.

Install auth scaffolding

tyravel auth:install

This wires session guards, user model stubs, login routes, and CSRF middleware. See Authentication for token guards and social OAuth.

Migration

tyravel make:migration create_users_table
tyravel migrate

Define columns in the generated migration using the blueprint API documented in Database & ORM.

Protect a route

import { Route, Auth } from '@tyravel/core';
import { Response } from '@tyravel/http';

Route.get('/dashboard', async () => {
  const user = await Auth.user();
  if (!user) {
    return Response.redirect('/login');
  }
  return Response.json({ email: user.email });
});

Prefer policies and middleware for production apps — covered in the controllers guide.

Seed data

tyravel make:seeder UserSeeder
tyravel db:seed

Verified in CI

examples/hello-world/tests/feature/reference.test.ts registers a user, drains the queue, and asserts the welcome mailable was sent. Login/logout session flow is covered in the same file.

Queues & events — dispatch a welcome notification in the background.
