Question

i'm creating an authentication api using passport from the official docs but i'm stuck on sending GuzzelHttp request

i'v done exactly like the docs but when i want to test with postman no result returned it just stay loading without end

this is my code my controller

$user = new User();
        $user->email = $request->email;
        $user->name = $request->name;
        $user->password = bcrypt($request->password);
        $user->save();

        $http = new Client;

        $response = $http->post('http://localhost:8000/oauth/token', [
            'form_params' => [
                'grant_type' => 'password',
                'client_id' => 2,
                'client_secret' => 'x2ESrkADoQEaQ91iMW9kKiIvjKo0LL4RxlUtqtmy',
                'password' => $request->password
            ],
        ]);
        dd($response);

        return response([
            'success'=> true,
            'successMessageKey' => 'userCreatedSuccessfully' ,
            'data'=>json_decode((string) $response->getBody(), true)
        ]);

and my route

Route::post('users/register',[
'uses' => 'Api\AuthController@register'
]);

and when i run my route i got no result like this and stuck in loading

The issue is when using php artisan serve, it uses a PHP server which is single-threaded.

The web server runs only one single-threaded process, so PHP applications will stall if a request is blocked.

You can do this solution:

When making calls to itself the thread blocked waiting for its own reply. The solution is to either seperate the providing application and consuming application into their own instance or to run it on a multi-threaded webserver such as Apache or nginx.

Or if you are looking for a quick fix to test your updates - you can get this done by opening up two command prompts. The first would be running php artisan serve (locally my default port is 8000 and you would be running your site on http://localhost:8000). The second would run php artisan serve --port 8001.

Then you would update your post request to:

    $response = $http->post('http://localhost:8001/oauth/token', [
        'form_params' => [
            'grant_type' => 'password',
            'client_id' => 2,
            'client_secret' => 'x2ESrkADoQEaQ91iMW9kKiIvjKo0LL4RxlUtqtmy',
            'password' => $request->password
        ],
    ]);

This should help during your testing until you are able to everything on server or a local virtual host.
