Disable Auth Register route in Laravel 8?

Question

I need to disable my register route in Laravel 8. Tried

Auth::routes([
     'register' => false,
     'login' => false,
]);

but the application threw up an error.

RuntimeException
In order to use the Auth::routes() method, please install the laravel/ui package.

If anyone points out what needs to change, will be grateful.

Thanks

In addition, be sure to disable related routes, in routes/web.php :

Route::get('/register', function() {
    return redirect('/login');
});

Route::post('/register', function() {
    return redirect('/login');
});

I changed according feature tests in tests/Feature/RegistrationTest.php to try to keep work clean so I needed those redirections.

At the end of my routes/web.php was the following line:

require __DIR__.'/auth.php';

In routes/auth.php are listed all additional routes for user login/register/logout. Just comment out or remove /register route from there.

Laravel 8 uses fortify authentication. To disable registration from your laravel app, you need to disable it from fortify, which is located on /config/fortify.php

'features' => [
    // Features::registration(), // disable here
     Features::resetPasswords(),
     Features::emailVerification(),
     Features::updateProfileInformation(),
     Features::updatePasswords(),
     Features::twoFactorAuthentication(),
],
